1 Istwa 13
1 Alò, David te fè konsèy ansanm avèk kapitèn a dè milye a dè santèn, menm avèk chak chèf.
David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, even with every leader.
2 David te di a tout asanble Israël la: “Si li sanble bon a nou menm e si li soti nan SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, annou voye toupatou mesaje a fanmi pa nou ki rete nan peyi Israël yo e osi, a prèt avèk Levit ki avèk yo nan vil pa yo, avèk teren pa yo, pou yo kapab reyini ansanm avèk nou.
David said to all the assembly of Israel, "If it seems good to you, and if there is a breakthrough from the LORD our God, let us send abroad everywhere to our brothers who are left in all the land of Israel, with whom the priests and Levites are in their cities that have suburbs, that they may gather themselves to us;
3 Konsa, annou pote tounen lach Bondye pa nou an, paske nan jou Saül yo, nou pa t chache li.”
and let us bring again the ark of our God to us. For we did not seek it in the days of Saul."
4 Alò, tout asanble a te di ke yo ta fè l, paske bagay la te bon nan zye a tout pèp la.
All the assembly said that they would do so; for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 Konsa, David te rasanble tout Israël ansanm, soti nan Sichor nan Egypte jis rive nan antre Hamath, pou pote lach Bondye a soti Kirjath-Jearim.
So David assembled all Israel together, from the Shihor of Egypt even to Lebo Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath Jearim.
6 David avèk tout Israël te monte Baalah, sa vle di nan Kirjath-Jearim, ki apatyen a Juda, pou pote monte soti la, lach Bondye a, SENYÈ a, ki sou twòn li antre cheriben yo, kote non Li ap rele a.
And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath Jearim, which belongs to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the name of the LORD enthroned on the cherubim.
7 Yo te pote lach Bondye a sou yon kabwèt nèf soti lakay Abinadab, Uzza avèk Achjo te kondwi kabwèt la.
They carried the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
8 David avèk tout Israël t ap selebre devan Bondye avèk tout fòs yo, menm avèk chan, avèk gita yo, ap yo, tanbouren yo, senbal yo ak twonpèt yo.
David and all Israel played before God with all their might, even with songs, and with harps, and with stringed instruments, and with tambourines, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
9 Lè yo te rive nan glasi vannen an nan Cidon, Uzza te lonje men l pou bay soutyen a lach la akoz bèf yo te prèt pou chavire l.
When they came to the threshing floor of Nodan, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.
10 Lakòlè SENYÈ a te brile kont Uzza e Li te frape li akoz li te lonje men l vè lach la; epi li te mouri la devan Bondye.
The anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he struck him, because he put forth his hand to the ark; and there he died before God.
11 Konsa, David te vin fache akoz kòlè SENYÈ a te pete kont Uzza. Li te rele plas sa a Pérets-Uzza jis rive jodi a.
David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth on Uzza; and he called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
12 David te krent Bondye nan jou sa a, epi te di: “Kijan mwen kapab pote lach Bondye lakay mwen?”
David was afraid of God that day, saying, "How can I bring the ark of God to me?"
13 Pou sa, David pa t pran lach la avèk li lavil David, men te pran l sou kote kay Obed-Édom an nan Gath.
So David did not move the ark to him into the City of David, but diverted it to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
14 Konsa, lach Bondye a te rete avèk fanmi a Obed-Édom lakay li pandan twa mwa. Epi SENYÈ a te beni fanmi Obed-Édom an avèk tout sa li te genyen.
The ark of God remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months: and the LORD blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he had.
