< 2 Samyèl 6 >

1 Yon lòt fwa ankò, David reyini tout pi bon sòlda pèp Izrayèl la. Sa te fè antou trantmil (30.000) gason.
And David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 Li leve, li pati pou Balat nan peyi Jida ansanm ak tout sòlda ki te avè l' yo. Li tapral chache Bwat Kontra Bondye a, bwat ki pote non Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a, Seyè ki gen fotèy li anwo zanj cheriben yo.
And David arose, and went with all the people who were with him to Baalah, that is, Kiriath Jearim of Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called there by the name of YHWH enthroned on the cherubim.
3 Yo pran Bwat la kay Abenadab sou mòn lan, mete l' sou yon kabwa tou nèf, yo pote l' ale. Ouza ak Akiyo, pitit gason Abenadab yo, t'ap mennen kabwa
And they set the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was on the hill. And Uzza and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, guided the cart
4 kote yo te mete Bwat Kontra Bondye a. Akiyo t'ap mache devan kabwa a.
with the ark; and Ahio was walking in front of the ark.
5 David ansanm ak tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo menm t'ap danse ak tout nanm yo. Yo t'ap chante fè lwanj Seyè a. Yo t'ap jwe gita ak bandjo. Yo t'ap bat tanbou, tanbouren ak senbal.
And David and the children of Israel played before YHWH with all their strength and with songs, and with harps, and with stringed instruments, and with tambourines, and with castanets, and with cymbals.
6 Lè yo rive bò glasi Nakon an, bèf yo bite, yo manke tonbe. Ouza lonje men l', li soutni Bwat Kontra a.
And when they came to the threshing floor of Nodan, Uzza reached out his hand to the ark of God, to steady it; for the oxen stumbled.
7 Men Seyè a move sou Ouza, li touye l' frèt paske li pa t' gen dwa manyen Bwat Kontra a. Ouza mouri la toupre Bwat Kontra a.
And YHWH became angry at Uzza; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died before God.
8 David menm te fache dèske Seyè a te touye Ouza konsa. Se poutèt sa depi lè sa a yo rele kote sa a Perèz-Ouza, non ki rete pou li jouk jounen jòdi a.
And David was displeased, because YHWH had broken forth on Uzza; and he called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
9 Lè sa a, David vin pè Seyè a. Li di li pa wè ki jan pou l' pran Bwat Kontra a lakay li.
And David was afraid of YHWH that day; and he said, "How can the ark of God come to me?" Now the ark of YHWH arrived,
10 Se konsa li pran desizyon pou l' pa pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a lakay li nan Lavil David la. Li fè yo pote l' kay Obèdedon, yon moun lavil Gat.
but David was not willing to move the ark of YHWH with him to the City of David; so David diverted it to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
11 Bwat la pase twa mwa lakay li. Seyè a te beni Obèdedon ansanm ak tout moun lakay li.
And the ark of YHWH remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months, and YHWH blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
12 Lè David tande jan Seyè a te beni Obèdedon ak tout moun lakay li, jan zafè l' t'ap mache byen poutèt Bwat Kontra a, David pati, li ale kay Obèdedon, li pran Bwat Kontra Seyè a pou pote l' nan Lavil David la avèk gwo seremoni sou tout wout la.
And it was told king David, saying, "YHWH has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him because of the ark of God." And David said, "I will bring back the blessing to my house." And David went and brought up the ark of YHWH from the house of Obed-Edom into the City of David with joy.
13 Lè moun ki t'ap pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a fè sis pa annavan, David fè yo rete, li touye yon gwo towo ak yon ti towo bèf chatre pou Seyè a.
And it was so, that, when those who bore the ark had gone six steps, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 Apre sa, David pran danse ak tout nanm li devan Seyè a. Li pa t' gen pase yon moso twal fen blan mare nan ren l'.
And David danced before YHWH with all his might; and he was clothed in a linen ephod.
15 Se konsa, li menm ak tout pèp Izrayèl la, yo pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a lavil Jerizalèm. Yo t'ap fè fèt, yo t'ap kònen twonpèt sou tout wout la.
And David and all Israel brought up the ark of YHWH with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 Antan yo t'ap antre ak Bwat Kontra a nan lavil David la, Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, te kanpe bò yon fennèt ap gade. Li wè David ki t'ap danse fè laviwonn devan Seyè a. Li vin pa gen yon san pou li ankò.
Now, as the ark entered the City of David, Mikal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before YHWH; and she despised him in her heart.
17 Yo pote Bwat Kontra Seyè a, yo mete l' nan plas li nan tant David te moute pou li a. Apre sa, David ofri bèt pou boule nèt pou Seyè a ak ofrann pou di Bondye mèsi.
And they brought in the ark of YHWH, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had set up for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before YHWH.
18 Lè David fin fè ofrann sa yo, li beni pèp la nan non Seyè ki gen tout pouvwa a.
And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of YHWH of hosts.
19 Li separe manje bay tout moun pèp Izrayèl yo, fanm kou gason. Li ba yo chak yon pen, yon moso vyann woti ak yon pen rezen. Lèfini, tout moun al lakay yo.
And he gave to all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to everyone a portion of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. So all the people departed everyone to his house.
20 Apre sa, David al lakay li pou l' beni fanmi pa l' tou. Men, Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, soti vin kontre li. Epi li di l' konsa: -Ala yon bèl bagay wa pèp Izrayèl la fè pou tèt li jòdi a! Tou sa yon vakabon ta fè. Li wete rad sou li devan tout sèvant moun k'ap sèvi avè l' yo!
And then David returned to bless his household. Mikal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David. And she greeted him, and said, "How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of the servants of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself."
21 David reponn li: -Se vre. Mwen t'ap danse pou m' te fè lwanj Seyè a ki te pito m' pase papa ou ak tout fanmi ou. Li chwazi m', li mete m' chèf pèp Izrayèl la, pèp li a. M'ap toujou ka danse devan l' pou m' fè lwanj li.
And David said to Mikal, "I was dancing before YHWH. Blessed be YHWH, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over his people Israel; therefore I will celebrate before YHWH.
22 M'ap desanm tèt mwen pi ba toujou pase sa. Dapre ou, se desann m'ap desann sousi m'. Men, sèvant w'ap pale yo ap toujou ka leve m' anlè.
And I will be yet more vile than this, and will be lowly in your eyes. But of the servants of whom you have spoken, they shall honor me."
23 Mikal, pitit fi Sayil la, pa janm fè pitit jouk li mouri.
And Mikal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
