1 Istwa 13
1 Alò, David te fè konsèy ansanm avèk kapitèn a dè milye a dè santèn, menm avèk chak chèf.
And David consulted with the captains of thousands, and of hundreds, [and] 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.
And David said to all the congregation of Israel, If [it seemeth] good to you, and [that it is] of the LORD our God, let us send abroad to our brethren every where, [that are] left in all the land of Israel, and with them [also] to the priests and Levites [who are] in their cities [and] suburbs, that they may assemble 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 to us the ark of our God: for we inquired not at 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.
And all the congregation 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, from Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath-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 Kirjath-jearim, which [belonged] to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth [between] the cherubim, whose name is called [on it].
7 Yo te pote lach Bondye a sou yon kabwèt nèf soti lakay Abinadab, Uzza avèk Achjo te kondwi kabwèt la.
And they carried the ark of God in a new cart 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.
And David and all Israel played before God with all [their] might, and with singing, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, 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.
And when they came to the threshing-floor of Chidon, 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.
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put 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.
And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called 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?”
And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God [home] 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 brought not the ark to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into 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.
And 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.
