< Samuel 2 6 >
1 David gaƒo ƒu ame tiatia akpe blaetɔ̃ tso Israel dukɔ blibo la me.
And again David gathered every chosen one in Israel—thirty thousand,
2 David kple eƒe ameawo katã dze mɔ tso Baala Yuda be woaɖakɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la tso afi ma vɛ. Woyɔa Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ, ame si le Kerubi siwo le nubablaɖaka la dzi la ƒe ŋkɔ ɖe eŋu.
and David rises and goes, and all the people who [are] with him, from Ba‘ale-Judah, to bring up the Ark of God from there, whose name has been called—the Name of YHWH of Hosts, inhabiting the cherubim—on it.
3 Wokɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la da ɖe tasiaɖam yeye aɖe dzi eye wokɔe tso Abinadab ƒe aƒe si le toa ŋu la me. Ame siwo tutu tasiaɖam la woe nye Abinadab ƒe viŋutsuwo, Uza kple Ahio.
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;
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,
5 David kple Israel ƒe aƒe blibo la katã nɔ dzidzɔ kpɔm, nɔ ɣe ɖum kple woƒe ŋusẽ katã le Yehowa ŋkume. Wonɔ ha dzim ɖe saŋkuwo, kasaŋkuwo, gaviwo kple gakogoewo ŋu.
and David and all the house of Israel are playing before YHWH, with all kinds of [instruments] of fir-wood, even with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with horns, and with cymbals.
6 Esi woɖo Nakon ƒe lugbɔƒe la, Uza do asi ɖa lé Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la elabena nyiawo ƒe afɔwo kli nu.
And they come to the threshing-floor of Nachon, and Uzzah puts forth [his hand] to the Ark of God, and lays hold on it, for they released the oxen;
7 Yehowa do dɔmedzoe ɖe Uza ŋu heƒoe ƒu anyi wòku enumake ɖe mabumabu nu si wòwɔ la ta, ale wòku le Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la xa.
and the anger of YHWH burns against Uzzah, and God strikes him there for the error, and he dies there by the Ark of God.
8 David do dɔmedzoe ɖe Yehowa ŋu le nu si wòwɔ Uza la ta eye wòna ŋkɔ teƒe ma be “Perez Uza” si gɔmee nye, “Afi si wodo dɔmedzoe ɖe Uza ŋu le.” Ŋkɔ sia tsi teƒe la ŋu va se ɖe egbe.
And it is displeasing to David, because that YHWH has broken forth a breach on Uzzah, and [one] calls that place Perez-Uzzah to this day;
9 David vɔ̃ Mawu eye wòbia be “Aleke Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ava aƒee?”
and David fears YHWH on that day and says, “How does the Ark of YHWH come to me?”
10 Nu sia na David ɖo ta me be yemakɔe ayi eɖokui gbɔ le David ƒe Du la me o, eya ta ekɔe yi ɖada ɖe Obed Edom, ame si tso Git la ƒe aƒe me.
And David has not been willing to turn aside the Ark of YHWH to himself, to the City of David, and David turns it aside to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite,
11 Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la nɔ afi ma ɣleti etɔ̃ eye Yehowa yra Obed Edom kple eƒe aƒemetɔwo katã.
and the Ark of YHWH inhabits the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite [for] three months, and YHWH blesses Obed-Edom and all his house.
12 Esi Fia David se nya sia be, “Yehowa yra Obed Edom ƒe aƒe kple nu siwo katã le esi le Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la ta” la, David yi ɖakɔ Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la kple aseyetsotso.
And it is declared to King David, saying, “YHWH has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he has, because of the Ark of God”; and David goes and brings up the Ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with joy.
13 Ne ame siwo kɔ nubablaɖaka la ɖe afɔ zi ade la, wotɔna, lalana eye David tsɔa nyitsu ɖeka kple alẽvi dami ɖeka saa vɔe.
And it comes to pass, when those carrying the Ark of YHWH have stepped six steps, that he sacrifices an ox and a fatling.
14 David ɖu ɣe kple eƒe ŋusẽ katã le Yehowa ŋkume le esime wòdo awu ʋlaya si wotɔ kple aklala biɖibiɖi.
And David is dancing with all [his] strength before YHWH, and David is girded with a linen ephod,
15 Ale Israel kɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va aƒee kple aseyetsotso kple kpẽkuku geɖe.
and David and all the house of Israel are bringing up the Ark of YHWH with shouting, and with the voice of a horn,
16 Esi Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la va ɖo David ƒe du la me la, Mixal, Saul ƒe vinyɔnu kpɔ Fia David to fesre to wònɔ kpo tim, nɔ ɣe ɖum le Yehowa ŋkume eye Mixal ɖu fewu le David ŋu le eƒe dzime.
and it has come to pass, the Ark of YHWH has come into the City of David, and Michal daughter of Saul has looked through the window and sees King David moving and dancing before YHWH, and she despises him in her heart.
17 Wokɔ Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la da ɖe agbadɔ si David tu nɛ me eye David sa numevɔ kple akpedavɔ na Yehowa.
And they bring in the Ark of YHWH, and set it up in its place, in the midst of the tent which David has spread out for it, and David causes burnt-offerings and peace-offerings to ascend before YHWH.
18 Esi David sa numevɔ kple akpedavɔ vɔ la, eyra ameawo le Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkɔ me
And David finishes from causing the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings to ascend, and blesses the people in the Name of YHWH of Hosts,
19 eye wòtsɔ abolo ɖeka, lãkɔ kple waintsetsebolo na ame sia ame le Israel ƒe ameha blibo la dome, ŋutsuwo kple nyɔnuwo siaa. Ale ame sia ame trɔ yi aƒe me.
and he apportions to all the people, to all the multitude of Israel, from man and to woman, to each, one cake of bread, and one eshpar, and one ashisha, and all the people go, each to his house.
20 David hã yi eƒe aƒe me eye wòyra eƒe aƒemetɔwo. Mixal va do goe eye wògblɔ na David fewuɖutɔe be, “Israel fia la de bubu gã aɖe ŋutɔ eɖokui ŋu egbe! Eɖe eɖokui fia nyɔnuviwo le ablɔ dzi abe yakame gbɔlo aɖe ene!”
And David turns back to bless his house, and Michal daughter of Saul goes out to meet David and says, “How honorable was the king of Israel today, who was uncovered today before the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain ones is openly uncovered!”
21 David ɖo eŋu be, “Yehowa, ame si tiam ɖe fofowò kple eƒe ƒome la teƒe eye wòɖom kplɔlae ɖe Israel, Yehowa ƒe amewo, nu la ŋkumee meɖu ɣe le! Eya ta mele klalo be mawɔ nu abe abunɛtɔ ene ale be maɖe nye dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ le Yehowa me afia.
And David says to Michal, “Before YHWH, who fixed on me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me leader over the people of YHWH, and over Israel—indeed, I played before YHWH;
22 Ɛ̃, melɔ̃ be magawɔ ɖokuinye abunɛtɔ gã aɖe wu esia gɔ̃ hã, ke nyɔnuvi siwo ŋu nèƒo nu le la agade bubu ŋunye wu esia.”
and I have been more vile than this, and have been low in my eyes, and with the handmaids whom you have spoken of, I am honored with them.”
23 Ale Mixal tsi ko le eƒe agbemeŋkekewo katã me.
As for Michal daughter of Saul, she had no child until the day of her death.
