< 2 Samuel 6 >
1 And David gathered again every chosen one in Israel, thirty thousand,
Jednoga dana David opet skupi svu izabranu momčad u Izraelu, trideset tisuća ljudi.
2 and David riseth and goeth, and all the people who [are] with him, from Baale-Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God, whose name hath been called — the name of Jehovah of Hosts, inhabiting the cherubs — upon it.
Zatim David i sva vojska što je bila s njim krenu na put i odoše u Baalu Judinu da odande donesu Kovčeg Božji, što nosi ime Jahve Sebaota koji stoluje nad kerubinima.
3 And they cause the ark of God to ride on a new cart, and lift it up from the house of Abinadab, which [is] in the height, and Uzzah and Ahio sons of Abinadab are leading the new cart;
Kovčeg Božji metnuše na nova kola, iznijevši ga iz kuće Abinadabove, koja je stajala na brežuljku. Uza i Ahjo, Abinadabovi sinovi, pratili su kola.
4 and they lift it up from the house of Abinadab, which [is] in the height, with the ark of God, and Ahio is going before the ark,
Uza je stupao kraj Kovčega Božjeg, a Ahjo išao pred njim.
5 and David and all the house of Israel are playing before Jehovah, with all kinds of [instruments] of fir-wood, even with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cornets, and with cymbals.
David i sav dom Izraelov igrahu pred Jahvom iz sve snage pjevajući uza zvuke citara, harfa, bubnjeva, udaraljki i cimbala.
6 And they come unto the threshing-floor of Nachon, and Uzzah putteth forth [his hand] unto the ark of God, and layeth hold on it, for they released the oxen;
Kad su došli do Nakonova gumna, posegnu Uza rukom za Kovčegom Božjim da ga pridrži jer ga volovi umalo ne prevrnuše.
7 and the anger of Jehovah burneth against Uzzah, and God smiteth him there for the error, and he dieth there by the ark of God.
Ali se Jahve razgnjevio na Uzu: Bog ga na mjestu udari za taj prijestup, tako da je umro ondje, kraj Kovčega Božjega.
8 And it is displeasing to David, because that Jehovah hath broken forth a breach upon Uzzah, and [one] calleth that place Perez-Uzzah, unto this day;
Davidu bijaše žao što je Jahve onako udario Uzu, i on prozva ono mjesto Peres Uza, kako se zove i dan-danas.
9 and David feareth Jehovah on that day, and saith, 'How doth the ark of Jehovah come in unto me?'
Toga se dana David uplaši Jahve i reče u sebi: “Kako bi mogao doći k meni Kovčeg Jahvin?”
10 And David hath not been willing to turn aside unto himself the ark of Jehovah, to the city of David, and David turneth it aside to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite,
Zato David ne htjede dovesti Kovčeg Jahvin k sebi, u Davidov grad, nego ga otpremi u kuću Obed-Edoma iz Gata.
11 and the ark of Jehovah doth inhabit the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months, and Jehovah blesseth Obed-Edom and all his house.
I ostade Jahvin Kovčeg u kući Obed-Edomovoj u Gatu tri mjeseca i Jahve blagoslovi Obed-Edoma i svu njegovu obitelj.
12 And it is declared to king David, saying, 'Jehovah hath blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he hath, because of the ark of God;' and David goeth and bringeth up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the city of David with joy.
Kad su kralju javili da je Jahve blagoslovio Obed-Edomovu obitelj i sav njegov posjed zbog Kovčega Božjeg, ode David i ponese Kovčeg Božji iz Obed-Edomove kuće gore u Davidov grad s velikim veseljem.
13 And it cometh to pass, when those bearing the ark of Jehovah have stepped six steps, that he sacrificeth an ox and a fatling.
Tek što su nosioci Kovčega Božjeg pokročili šest koraka, David žrtvova vola i tovna ovna.
14 And David is dancing with all strength before Jehovah, and David is girded with a linen ephod,
David je igrao iz sve snage pred Jahvom, a bio je ogrnut samo lanenim oplećkom.
15 and David and all the house of Israel are bringing up the ark of Jehovah with shouting, and with the voice of a trumpet,
Tako su David i sav Izraelov dom nosili gore Kovčeg Jahvin kličući i trubeći u rog.
16 and it hath come to pass, the ark of Jehovah hath come in to the city of David, and Michal daughter of Saul, hath looked through the window, and seeth king David moving and dancing before Jehovah, and despiseth him in her heart.
A kad je Kovčeg Jahvin ulazio u Davidov grad, Šaulova je kći Mikala gledala kroz prozor i vidjela kralja Davida kako skače i vrti se pred Jahvom i prezre ga ona u svome srcu.
17 And they bring in the ark of Jehovah, and set it up in its place, in the midst of the tent which David hath spread out for it, and David causeth to ascend burnt-offerings before Jehovah, and peace-offerings.
Tada unesoše Kovčeg Jahvin i postaviše ga usred šatora koji mu bijaše razapeo David. Onda David prinese pred Jahvom paljenice i pričesnice.
18 And David finisheth from causing to ascend the burnt-offering, and the peace-offerings, and blesseth the people in the name of Jehovah of Hosts,
Pošto je prinio paljenice i pričesnice, David blagoslovi narod imenom Jahve Sebaota.
19 and he apportioneth to all the people, to all the multitude of Israel, from man even unto woman, to each, one cake of bread, and one eshpar, and one ashisha, and all the people go, each to his house.
Potom razdijeli među sav narod, među sve mnoštvo Izraelovo, ljudima i ženama, svakome po jedan kruh, komad mesa i kolač od suhoga grožđa. Zatim se raziđe sav narod, svaki svojoj kući.
20 And David turneth back to bless his house, and Michal daughter of Saul goeth out to meet David, and saith, 'How honourable to-day was the king of Israel, who was uncovered to-day before the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain ones is openly uncovered!'
Kad se David vratio kući da blagoslovi svoju obitelj, Šaulova kći Mikala iziđe u susret Davidu i reče mu: “Kako se časno danas ponio Izraelov kralj kad se otkrio pred očima sluškinja slugu svojih kao što se otkriva prost čovjek!”
21 And David saith unto Michal, ' — Before Jehovah, who fixed on me above thy father, and above all his house, to appoint me leader over the people of Jehovah, and over Israel, — yea, I played before Jehovah;
Ali David odgovori Mikali: “Pred Jahvom ja igram! Tako mi živoga Jahve, koji me izabrao mjesto tvog oca i mjesto svega njegova doma da me postavi za kneza nad Izraelom, narodom Jahvinim: pred Jahvom ću igrati!
22 and I have been more vile than this, and have been low in mine eyes, and with the handmaids whom thou hast spoken of, with them I am honoured.'
I još ću se dublje poniziti. Bit ću neznatan u tvojim očima, ali pred sluškinjama o kojima govoriš, pred njima ću biti u časti.”
23 As to Michal daughter of Saul, she had no child till the day of her death.
A Mikala, Šaulova kći, ne imade poroda do dana svoje smrti.
