< 2 Samyèl 6 >

1 Alò, David te ankò ranmase tout mesye chwazi an Israël yo nan kantite trant-mil.
David again assembled the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand in all.
2 Li te leve pou te ale avèk tout moun ki te avèk li yo Baalé-Juda, pou fè monte soti la, lach Bondye ki rele pa Non an, vrè non dirèk SENYÈ dèzame yo ki enstale sou twòn anwo cheriben an.
And he and all his troops set out for Baale of Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the Name— the name of the LORD of Hosts, who is enthroned between the cherubim that are on it.
3 Yo te plase lach Bondye a sou yon kabwa tounèf pou yo te kab mennen li soti lakay Abinadab ki te sou ti kolin nan. Se te Uzza avèk Achjo, fis Abinadab la, ki te mennen kabwèt nèf la.
They set the ark of God on a new cart and brought it from the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill. Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were guiding the new cart,
4 Konsa, yo te mennen li avèk lach Bondye a soti lakay Abinadab, ki te sou ti kolin nan. Achjo t ap mache devan lach la.
bringing with it the ark of God. And Ahio was walking in front of the ark.
5 Antretan, David avèk tout lakay SENYÈ a t ap selebre devan SENYÈ a avèk tout kalite enstriman ki fèt an bwa pichpen, avèk lap, gita, tanbouren, ak kastanèt ak senbal.
David and all the house of Israel were celebrating before the LORD with all kinds of wood instruments, harps, stringed instruments, tambourines, sistrums, and cymbals.
6 Men lè yo te rive nan glasi Nacon an, Uzza te lonje men l vè lach Bondye a pou te kenbe li, paske bèf kabwèt yo te manke tonbe.
When they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark of God, because the oxen had stumbled.
7 Konsa, kòlè SENYÈ a te brile kont Uzza, epi Bondye te frape li la pou mank respè li a. Li te mouri la akote lach BONDYE a.
And the anger of the LORD burned against Uzzah, and God struck him down on the spot for his irreverence, and he died there beside the ark of God.
8 David te vin fache akoz kòlè SENYÈ a kont Uzza e plas sa a te vin rele Pérets-Uzza (kase antre a Uzza) jis rive jodi a.
Then David became angry because the LORD had burst forth against Uzzah; so he named that place Perez-uzzah, as it is called to this day.
9 Konsa, David te pè SENYÈ a nan jou sa a. Li te di: “Kijan lach SENYÈ a kapab rive kote mwen?”
That day David feared the LORD and asked, “How can the ark of the LORD ever come to me?”
10 Konsa, David pa t dakò pou deplase lach la antre nan vil David la avèk li; men David te mennen li akote, pou l rive kay Obed-Édom, Gatyen an.
So he was unwilling to move the ark of the LORD to the City of David; instead, he took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
11 Konsa, lach SENYÈ a te rete lakay Obed-Édom an, Gatyen an, pandan twa mwa e SENYÈ a te beni Obed-Édom avèk tout lakay li.
Thus the ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite for three months, and the LORD blessed him and all his household.
12 Alò, yo te pale a wa David, e te di: “SENYÈ a te beni lakay Obed-Édom avèk tout sa ki pou li akoz lach Bondye a.” Konsa, David te ale monte lach Bondye a soti lakay Obed-Édom pou antre nan vil David la avèk kè kontan.
Now it was reported to King David, “The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.” So David went and had the ark of God brought up from the house of Obed-edom into the City of David with rejoicing.
13 Lè pòtè lach SENYÈ a yo te fin fè sis pa, li te fè sakrifis a yon bèf kabwèt avèk yon jenn bèf gra.
When those carrying the ark of the LORD had advanced six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 Epi David t ap danse devan SENYÈ a avèk tout fòs li e David te abiye avèk yon efòd fèt ak len.
And David, wearing a linen ephod, danced with all his might before the LORD,
15 Konsa, David avèk tout kay Israël la t ap mennen lach SENYÈ a monte avèk gwo kri lajwa e avèk son twonpèt.
while he and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting and the sounding of the ram’s horn.
16 Li te vin rive ke lè lach SENYÈ a te antre nan vil David la, ke Mical, fi a Saül la, te gade nan fenèt la e te wè Wa David t ap vòltije danse devan SENYÈ a. Epi li te meprize li nan kè l.
As the ark of the LORD was entering the City of David, Saul’s daughter Michal looked down from a window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD, and she despised him in her heart.
17 Konsa, yo te mennen lach SENYÈ a e te mete li nan plas li anndan tant ke David te fè monte pou li a. Epi David te ofri ofrann brile avèk ofrann lapè devan SENYÈ a.
So they brought the ark of the LORD and set it in its place inside the tent that David had pitched for it. Then David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
18 Lè David te fin ofri ofrann brile avèk ofrann lapè yo, li te beni pèp la nan non SENYÈ dèzame a.
When David had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Hosts.
19 Anplis, li te fè separe bay a tout pèp la, yon gato pen, youn ak fwi dat e youn avèk rezen pou chak moun. Apre, tout pèp la te pati, chak moun nan pwòp kay yo.
Then he distributed to every man and woman among the multitude of Israel a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. And all the people departed, each for his own home.
20 Men lè David te retounen pou beni lakay li, Mical, fi a Saül la, te vin parèt pou rankontre David e te di: “Men kijan wa Israël la te onore pwòp tèt li jodi a! Li te dekouvri li menm jodi a nan zye a tout bòn kay ak sèvitè li yo kòm yon nonm ensanse san wont ta vin dekouvri kò li.”
As soon as David returned home to bless his own household, Saul’s daughter Michal came out to meet him. “How the king of Israel has distinguished himself today!” she said. “He has uncovered himself today in the sight of the maidservants of his subjects, like a vulgar person would do.”
21 Konsa, David te di a Mical: “Devan SENYÈ aki te chwazi mwen an olye de papa ou e olye de tout kay li a, pou vin dezinye mwen chèf sou pèp SENYÈ a, sou Israël; pou sa, mwen va selebre devan SENYÈ a.
But David said to Michal, “I was dancing before the LORD, who chose me over your father and all his house when He appointed me ruler over the LORD’s people Israel. I will celebrate before the LORD,
22 Mwen va vin konte pa lòt moun kòm pi lejè ke sa, e mwen va vin enb nan pwòp zye m, men avèk bòn sila ke ou te pale yo; avèk yo, mwen va vin onore.”
and I will humiliate and humble myself even more than this. Yet I will be honored by the maidservants of whom you have spoken.”
23 Mical, fi a Saül la, pa t fè pitit jis rive jou ke li te mouri an.
And Michal the daughter of Saul had no children to the day of her death.
