1 Tarihi 13
1 Sai Dawuda ya tattauna da kowane ɗaya daga cikin shugabanninsa, shugabannin sojoji na dubu-dubu da na ɗari-ɗari.
Then David had discussions with the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds and with every chief.
2 Sa’an nan ya ce wa dukan taron Isra’ila, “In ya yi muku kyau kuma in nufin Ubangiji Allahnmu ne, bari mu aika da saƙo nesa da kuma ko’ina zuwa ga sauran’yan’uwanmu a duk iyakokin Isra’ila, da kuma zuwa ga firistoci da Lawiyawa waɗanda suke tare da su a garuruwansu da makiyayansu, su zo wurinmu.
And David said to all the men of Israel who had come together there, If it seems good to you and if it is the purpose of the Lord our God, let us send to all the rest of our brothers, everywhere in the land of Israel, and to the priests and the Levites in their towns and the country round them, and get them to come together here to us;
3 Bari mu ɗauko akwatin alkawarin Allahnmu mu kawo wurinmu, gama ba mu neme shi a lokacin mulkin Shawulu ba.”
And let us get back for ourselves the ark of our God: for in the days of Saul we did not go to it for directions.
4 Dukan taron jama’a suka yarda su yi haka, domin ya yi daidai ga dukan mutane.
And all the people said they would do so, for it seemed right to them.
5 Saboda haka Dawuda ya tattara dukan Isra’ilawa, daga Kogin Shihor a Masar zuwa Lebo Hamat, don su kawo akwatin alkawarin Allah daga Kiriyat Yeyarim.
So David sent for all Israel to come together, from Shihor, the river of Egypt, as far as the way into Hamath, to get the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.
6 Dawuda da dukan Isra’ilawa tare da shi suka tafi Ba’ala na Yahuda (Kiriyat Yeyarim) don su haura daga can su kawo akwatin alkawarin Allah Ubangiji, wanda yake zama tsakanin kerubobi, akwatin alkawarin da ake kira da Sunan.
And David went up, with all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath-jearim in Judah, to get up from there the ark of God, over which the holy Name is named, the name of the Lord whose place is between the winged ones.
7 Suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Allah daga gidan Abinadab a kan sabon keken shanu, Uzza da Ahiyo ne suke lura da shi.
And they put the ark of God on a new cart, and took it out of the house of Abinadab; and Uzza and Ahio were the drivers of the cart.
8 Dawuda da dukan Isra’ilawa suka yi shagali da dukan ƙarfinsu a gaban Allah, tare da waƙoƙi da garayu, molaye, ganguna, kuge da ƙahoni.
Then David and all Israel made melody before God with all their strength, with songs and corded instruments of music, and with brass instruments and horns.
9 Sa’ad da suka kai masussukar Kidon, Uzza ya miƙa hannunsa don yă gyara akwatin alkawarin, gama shanun sun yi tuntuɓe.
And when they came to the grain-floor of Chidon, Uzza put out his hand to keep the ark in its place, for the oxen were slipping.
10 Sai fushin Ubangiji ya ƙuna a kan Uzza, ya kuma buge shi domin ya sa hannunsa a kan akwatin alkawarin. Sai ya mutu a can a gaban Allah.
And the wrath of the Lord, burning against Uzza, sent destruction on him because he had put his hand on the ark, and death came to him there before God.
11 Ran Dawuda ya ɓace domin Ubangiji ya husata a kan Uzza, kuma har wa yau ana ce da wannan wuri Ferez Uzza.
And David was angry because of the Lord's outburst of wrath against Uzza, and he gave that place the name Perez-uzza, to this day.
12 Dawuda ya ji tsoron Allah a wannan rana ya kuma yi tambaya, “Yaya zan taɓa kawo akwatin alkawarin Allah gare ni?”
And so great was David's fear of God that day, that he said, How may I let the ark of God come to me?
13 Don haka bai ɗauki akwatin alkawarin ya kasance tare da shi a Birnin Dawuda ba. A maimakon haka, ya kai shi gidan Obed-Edom mutumin Gat.
So David did not let the ark come back to him to the town of David, but had it turned away and put into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
14 Akwatin Alkawarin Allah ya zauna tare da iyalin Obed-Edom a gidansa wata uku, Ubangiji kuwa ya albarkaci gidan Obed-Edom da kome da yake da shi.
And the ark of God was in the house of Obed-edom for three months; and the Lord sent a blessing on the house of Obed-edom and on all he had.
