1 Tarihi 15
1 Bayan Dawuda ya yi gine-gine wa kansa a Birnin Dawuda, sai ya shirya wuri domin akwatin alkawarin Allah, ya kuma kafa tenti dominsa.
And David made houses for himself in the town of David; and he got ready a place for the ark of God, and put up a tent for it.
2 Sa’an nan Dawuda ya ce, “Babu wani sai ko Lawiyawa kaɗai za su ɗauka akwatin alkawarin Allah, gama Ubangiji ya zaɓe su su ɗauka akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji su kuma yi hidima a gabansa har abada.”
Then David said, The ark of God may not be moved by any but the Levites, for they have been marked out by God to take the ark of God, and to do his work for ever.
3 Dawuda ya tattara dukan Isra’ila a Urushalima don su haura da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji zuwa wurin da aka shirya dominsa.
And David made all Israel come together at Jerusalem, to take the ark of the Lord to its place, which he had got ready for it.
4 Ya tattara zuriyar Haruna a wuri ɗaya da kuma Lawiyawa.
And David got together the sons of Aaron, and the Levites;
5 Daga zuriyar Kohat, Uriyel shugaba da dangi 120;
Of the sons of Kohath: Uriel the chief, and his brothers, a hundred and twenty;

Of the sons of Merari: Asaiah the chief, and his brothers, two hundred and twenty;

11 Sa’an nan Dawuda ya kira Zadok da Abiyatar, firistoci, tare da Uriyel, Asahiya, Yowel, Shemahiya, Eliyel da Amminadab, Lawiyawa.
And David sent for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, Uriel, Asaiah and Joel, Shemaiah and Eliel and Amminadab,
12 Ya ce musu, “Ku ne kawunan iyalan Lawiyawa; ku da’yan’uwanku Lawiyawa, sai ku tsarkake kanku ku hauro da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, zuwa wurin da na shirya dominsa.
And said to them, You are the heads of the families of the Levites: make yourselves holy, you and your brothers, so that you may take the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel, to the place which I have made ready for it.
13 Domin ku, Lawiyawa ba ku haura da shi da farko ba ne ya sa Ubangiji Allahnmu ya husata a kanmu. Ba mu tambaye shi game da yadda za mu yi shi a hanyar da aka ƙayyade ba.”
For because you did not take it at the first, the Lord our God sent punishment on us, because we did not get directions from him in the right way.
14 Saboda haka firistoci da Lawiyawa suka tsarkake kansu don su hauro da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila.
So the priests and the Levites made themselves holy to take up the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel.
15 Sai Lawiyawa suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Allah da sanduna a kafaɗunsu, kamar yadda Musa ya umarta bisa ga maganar Ubangiji.
And the sons of the Levites took up the ark of God, lifting it by its rods, as the Lord had said to Moses.
16 Dawuda ya faɗa wa shugabannin Lawiyawa su sa’yan’uwansu su zama mawaƙa don su rera waƙoƙi masu farin ciki, da kayayyakin bushe-bushe, da kaɗe-kaɗe, molaye, garayu da ganguna.
And David gave orders to the chief of the Levites to put their brothers the music-makers in position, with instruments of music, corded instruments and brass, with glad voices making sounds of joy.
17 Saboda haka Lawiyawa suka zaɓi Heman ɗan Yowel, da Asaf ɗan Berekiya daga cikin’yan’uwansu. Daga iyalin Merari kuma aka zaɓi Etan ɗan Kushahiya.
So Heman, the son of Joel, and, of his brothers, Asaph, the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brothers, Ethan, the son of Kushaiah, were put in position by the Levites;
18 Tare da su kuma’yan’uwansa da suke biye bisa ga matsayi. Wato, Zakariya, Ya’aziyel, Shemiramot, Yehiyel, Unni, Eliyab, Ben, Ma’asehiya, Mattitiya, Elifelehu, Miknehiya, Obed-Edom da Yehiyel, matsaran ƙofofi.
And with them their brothers of the second order, Zechariah, Bani and Jaaziel and Shemiramoth and Jehiel and Unni, Eliab and Benaiah and Maaseiah and Mattithiah and Eliphelehu and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom and Jeiel, the door-keepers.
19 Mawaƙan nan Heman, Asaf da Etan, ne za su buga kugen tagulla.
So those who made melody, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were put in position, with brass instruments, sounding loudly;
20 Zakariya, Aziyel, Shemiramot, Yehiyel, Unni, Eliyab, Ma’asehiya da Benahiya, ne za su kaɗa molaye masu murya sama-sama, bisa ga alamot.
And Zechariah and Aziel and Shemiramoth and Jehiel, Unni and Eliab and Maaseiah and Benaiah, with corded instruments put to Alamoth.
21 Mattitiya, Elifelehu, Miknehiya, Obed-Edom, Yehiyel da Azaziya, ne za su ja garayu masu murya ƙasa-ƙasa bisa ga sheminit.
And Mattithiah and Eliphelehu and Mikneiah and Obed-edom and Jeiel and Azaziah, with corded instruments on the octave, to give the first note of the song.
22 Kenaniya, shugaban Lawiyawa, shi ne mai bi da waƙoƙi. Wannan hakkinsa ne, gama shi gwani ne a wannan fanni.
And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was master of the music: he gave directions about the song, because he was expert.
23 Berekiya da Elkana, ne za su zama masu lura da ƙofofi domin akwatin alkawarin.
And Berechiah and Elkanah were door-keepers for the ark.
24 Shebaniya, Yoshafat, Netanel, Amasai, Zakariya, Benahiya da Eliyezer firistoci, su ne za su busa ƙahoni a gaban akwatin alkawarin Allah. Obed-Edom da Yehiya su ma za su zama masu lura da ƙofofi domin akwatin alkawarin.
And Shebaniah and Joshaphat and Nethanel and Amasai and Zechariah and Benaiah and Eliezer, the priests, made music on the horns before the ark of God; and Obed-edom and Jehiah were door-keepers for the ark.
25 Sai Dawuda da dattawan Isra’ila da shugabannin ƙungiyoyi dubu suka haura don su kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji daga gidan Obed-Edom, da farin ciki.
So David, and the responsible men of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went with joy to get the ark of the agreement of the Lord out of the house of Obed-edom.
26 Domin Allah ya taimaki Lawiyawan da suke ɗaukar akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, aka miƙa hadayar bijimai bakwai da raguna bakwai.
And when God gave help to the Levites who were lifting up the ark of the agreement of the Lord, they made an offering of seven oxen and seven sheep.
27 To, fa, Dawuda yana saye da kyakkyawar rigar lilin, kamar yadda dukan Lawiyawa waɗanda suke ɗaukar akwatin alkawarin suka sa, da kuma yadda mawaƙa, da Kenaniya, wanda yake bi da waƙar mawaƙan ya sa. Dawuda kuma ya sa efod lilin.
And David was clothed with a robe of fair linen, as were all the Levites who took up the ark, and those who made melody, and Chenaniah the master of those who made melody; and David had on a linen ephod;
28 Sai dukan Isra’ila suka kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji da sowa, da ƙarar ƙahonin raguna da busan ƙahoni, da na ganguna, suna kuma kaɗa molaye da garayu.
So all Israel took up the ark of the agreement of the Lord, with loud cries and with horns and brass and corded instruments sounding loudly.
29 Yayinda akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji yake shiga Birnin Dawuda, Mikal’yar Shawulu ta leƙa daga taga. Sa’ad da ta ga Sarki Dawuda yana rawa yana shagali, sai ta rena masa wayo a zuciyarta.
And when the ark of the agreement of the Lord came into the town of David, Michal, the daughter of Saul, looking out of the window, saw King David dancing and playing; and to her mind he seemed foolish.
