< 2 Sama’ila 6 >

1 Dawuda ya sāke tattara zaɓaɓɓun mutanen Isra’ila, dubu talatin.
And David got together all the fighting-men of Israel to the number of thirty thousand;
2 Shi, da dukan mutanensa suka tashi daga Ba’ala-Yahuda don su hauro da akwatin alkawarin Allah, wanda ake kira da SunanUbangiji Maɗaukaki, wanda yake zama a tsakanin kerubobin da suke a kan akwatin alkawarin.
And David, and all the people who were with him, went to Baal of Judah to get the ark of God, over which the holy name is named, the name of the Lord of armies, whose place is between the winged ones.
3 Suka ɗauko akwatin alkawarin Allah a sabuwar keken yaƙi, suka kawo shi daga gidan Abinadab, wanda yake bisa tudu. Uzza da Ahiyo,’ya’yan Abinadab maza, suka bi da keken yaƙin da akwatin alkawarin Allah yake ciki suka bi da keken yaƙin
And they put the ark of God on a new cart and took it out of the house of Abinadab which was on the hill: and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were the drivers of the cart.
4 da akwatin alkawarin Allah yake ciki. Ahiyo kuwa yana tafiya a gaban Abinadab.
And Uzzah went by the side of the ark, while Ahio went before it.
5 Dawuda da dukan gidan Isra’ila suka yi biki sosai da dukan ƙarfinsu a gaban Ubangiji, da waƙoƙi, da molaye, da garayu, da ganguna, da kacau-kacau da kuma kuge.
And David and all the men of Israel made melody before the Lord with all their power, with songs and with corded instruments and instruments of brass.
6 Da suka kai masussukar Nakon, sai Uzza ya miƙa hannu don yă riƙe akwatin alkawarin Allah, gama shanun sun yi tuntuɓe.
And when they came to Nacon's grain-floor, Uzzah put his hand on the ark of God to keep it safe in its place, for the oxen were out of control.
7 Fushin Ubangiji kuwa ya ƙuna a kan Uzza domin aikin rashin bangirma, saboda haka Allah ya buge shi ya kuma mutu a can kusa da akwatin alkawarin Allah.
And the wrath of the Lord, burning against Uzzah, sent destruction on him because he had put his hand on the ark, and death came to him there by the ark of God.
8 Ran Dawuda ya ɓace gama fushin Ubangiji ya ɓarke a kan Uzza. Shi ya sa har wa yau ana kira wurin Ferez Uzza.
And David was angry because of the Lord's outburst of wrath against Uzzah: and he gave that place the name Perez-uzzah, which is its name to this day.
9 Dawuda ya ji tsoron Ubangiji a ranar, sai ya ce, “Yaya akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji zai iya zuwa wurina?”
And such was David's fear of the Lord that day, that he said, How may I let the ark of God come to me?
10 Bai so yă ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji yă kasance tare da shi a Birnin Dawuda ba. A maimakon haka sai ya kai shi gidan Obed-Edom mutumin Gat.
So David did not let the ark of the Lord come back to him to the town of David: but had it turned away and put into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
11 Akwatin Alkawarin Ubangiji ya kasance a gidan Obed-Edom mutumin Gat har tsawon wata uku, Ubangiji kuwa ya albarkace shi da dukan iyalinsa.
And the ark of the Lord was in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite for three months: and the Lord sent a blessing on Obed-edom and all his family.
12 To, sai aka faɗa wa Sarki Dawuda cewa, “Ubangiji ya sa wa gidan Obed-Edom albarka da dukan abin da yake da shi, saboda akwatin alkawarin Allah.” Saboda haka sai Dawuda ya gangara ya hauro da akwatin alkawarin Allah daga gidan Obed-Edom zuwa Birnin Dawuda da farin ciki.
And they said to King David, The blessing of the Lord is on the family of Obed-edom and on all he has, because of the ark of God. And David went and took the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the town of David with joy.
13 Sa’ad da waɗanda suke ɗaukan akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji suka yi tafiya taki shida, sai yă yi hadayar bijimi da saniya mai ƙiba.
And when those who were lifting the ark of the Lord had gone six steps, he made an offering of an ox and a fat young beast.
14 Dawuda, sanye da efod lilin, ya yi ta rawa a gaban Ubangiji da dukan ƙarfinsa,
And David, clothed in a linen ephod, was dancing before the Lord with all his strength.
15 yayinda shi da dukan gidan Isra’ila suka hauro da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji da sowa da kuma busar ƙahoni.
So David and all the men of Israel took up the ark of the Lord with cries of joy and sounding of horns.
16 Sa’ad da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji ya shiga Birnin Dawuda, sai Mikal’yar Shawulu ta leƙa ta taga ta ga Dawuda sarki yana tsalle, yana rawa a gaban Ubangiji, sai ta rena shi a zuciyarta.
And when the ark of the Lord came into the town of David, Michal, Saul's daughter, looking out of the window, saw King David dancing and jumping before the Lord; and to her mind he seemed foolish.
17 Suka kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, aka ajiye shi a inda aka shirya masa a cikin tentin da Dawuda ya shirya dominsa. Dawuda kuma ya miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa da hadaya ta salama a gaban Ubangiji.
And they took in the ark of the Lord, and put it in its place inside the tent which David had put up for it: and David made burned offerings and peace-offerings to the Lord.
18 Bayan ya gama yin hadaya ta ƙonawa da hadaya ta salama, sai ya albarkaci mutane a cikin sunan Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
And after David had made the burned offerings and the peace-offerings, he gave the people a blessing in the name of the Lord of armies.
19 Sa’an nan ya rarraba abinci, da ƙosai, dabino, da waina ga kowane mutum a cikin dukan jama’ar Isra’ila, maza da mata. Dukan mutane kuwa suka watse zuwa gidajensu.
And he gave to every man and woman among all the people, among all the masses of Israel, a cake of bread and a measure of wine and a cake of dry grapes. Then all the people went away, every man to his house.
20 Da Dawuda ya koma gida don yă sa wa gidansa albarka, sai Mikal’yar Shawulu ta fito don tă tarye shi, sai ta ce, “Tabbas sarkin Isra’ila ya fiffita kansa yau, ya tuɓe a gaban bayinsa’yan mata, kamar yadda duk marar kunya yakan yi!”
Then David came back to give a blessing to his family. And Michal, Saul's daughter, came out to him and said, How full of glory was the king of Israel today, who let himself be seen uncovered by his servant-girls like a foolish person uncovering himself without shame!
21 Dawuda ya ce wa Mikal, “Na yi rawana domin in girmama Ubangiji ne, wanda ya zaɓe ni a maimakon mahaifinki ko wani daga cikin dukan gidansa, shi ne kuma ya sa ni sarki a kan Isra’ila, mutanen Ubangiji, zan yi biki a gaban Ubangiji.
And David said to Michal, I was dancing before the Lord, who put me over your father and all his sons, to make me a ruler over the people of the Lord, over his people Israel: and I will go on playing before the Lord;
22 Zan ma mai da kaina abin reni fiye da haka, za a kuma zama abin reni a gare ki. Amma waɗannan bayi’yan matan da kika yi magana a kai, za su gan ni da martaba.”
And I will do even worse than this, and make myself even lower in your eyes: but the servant-girls of whom you were talking will give me honour.
23 Mikal’yar Shawulu kuwa ba tă haifi ɗa ba har mutuwarta.
And Michal, Saul's daughter, had no child till the day of her death.
