I Oihanaalii 15
1 HANA iho la ia i na hale nona maloko o ke kulanakauhale o Davida, a hoomakaukau iho la hoi oia i wahi no ka pahu o ke Akua, a kukulu iho la i halelewa nona.
David built houses for himself in the city of David. He prepared a place for the ark of God and set up a tent for it.
2 Alaila, olelo mai la o Davida, Aohe mea e ae nana e amo i ka pahu o ke Akua, o na Levi wale; no: no ka mea, ua koho o Iehova ia lakou e amo i ka pahu o ke Akua, a e lawelawe nana a mau loa no.
Then David said, “Only the Levites may carry the ark of God, for they had been chosen by Yahweh to carry the ark of Yahweh, and to serve him forever.”
3 Houluulu mai la o Davida i ka Iseraela a pau i Ierusalema, e lawe mai i ka Pahu o Iehova i kona wahi, kahi ana i hoomakaukau ai nona.
Then David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Yahweh to the place he had prepared for it.
4 Houluulu ae la o Davida i na mamo a Aarona, a me na Levi:
David gathered together Aaron's descendants and the Levites.
5 O na mamo a Kohata; o Uriela ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau hookahi haneri a me ka iwakalua:
From the descendants of Kohath, there was Uriel the leader and his relatives, 120 men.
6 O na mamo a Merari; o Asaia ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he elua haneri a me ka iwakalua:
From the descendants of Merari, there was Asaiah the leader and his relatives, 220 men.
7 O na mamo a Geresoma; o Ioela ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he haneri a me ke kanakolu;
From the descendants of Gershom, there was Joel the leader and his relatives, 130 men.
8 O na mamo a Elizapana; o Semaia ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he elua haneri:
From the descendants of Elizaphan, there was Shemaiah the leader and his relatives, 200 men.
9 O na mamo a Heberona; o Eliela ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he kanawalu:
From the descendants of Hebron, there was Eliel the leader and his relatives, eighty men.
10 O na keikikane a Uziela; o Aminadaba ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he haneri a me ka umikumamalua.
From the descendants of Uzziel, there was Amminadab the leader and his relatives, 112 men.
11 Kahea aku la o Davida ia Zadoka laua o Abiatara na kahuna, a i na Levi hoi, ia Uriela, Asaia, Ioela, Semaia, Eliela, a me Aminadaba,
David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab.
12 I aku la oia ia lakou, O oukou na luna ohana o na Levi; e huikala ia oukou iho, oukou a me na hoahanau o oukou, i lawe mai ai oukou i ka pahu o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela i kahi a'u i hoomakaukau ai nona.
He said to them, “You are the leaders of the Levite families. Consecrate yourselves, both you and your brothers, so that you may bring up the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel, to the place that I have prepared for it.
13 No ka mea, no ka oukou hana ole ana ia me. mamua, i hookae mai ai o Iehova ko kakou Akua maluna o kakou, no ko kakou imi ole ana ia ia ma ka pololei maoli.
You did not carry it the first time. That is why Yahweh our God broke out against us, for we did not seek him or obey his decree.”
14 Nolaila, i huikala ai na kahuna a me na Levi ia lakou iho, i mea e lawe mai ai i ka pahu o Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela.
So the priests and the Levites consecrated themselves so they could bring up the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
15 A amo mai la na mamo a Levi i ka pahu o ke Akua maluna o ko lakou poohiwi, ma na auamo o luna, me ka Mose i kauoha mai ai, e like me ka olelo a Iehova.
So the Levites carried the ark of God on their shoulders with the poles, as Moses had commanded—following the rules given by the word of Yahweh.
16 Olelo mai la o Davida i na luna o na Levi, e hoonoho i ko lakou poe hoahanau, i poe hoolea, me na mea kani, na pesaleteria, na lira, na kimebala, e hookani ana me ka hookiekie ana i ka leo me ka olioli.
David spoke to the leaders of the Levites to assign their brothers to be musicians with musical instruments, stringed instruments, harps and cymbals, playing loudly and joyfully lifting up their voices.
17 A hoonoho aku la na Levi ia Hemana ke keiki a Ioela; a no kona poe hoahanau, ia Asapa ke keiki a Berekia; a no na mamo a Merari o ko lakou poe hoahanau, o Etana ke keiki a Kusaia;
So the Levites appointed Heman son of Joel and one of his brothers, Asaph son of Berechiah. They also appointed kinsmen from Merari's descendants and Ethan son of Kushaiah.
18 A me lakou pu ko lakou mau hoahanau mamuli iho, o Zekaria, o Bena, o Iaaziela, o Semiramota, o Iehiela, o Uni o Eliaba, o Benaia, o Maaseia, o Matitia, o Elipele, o Mikeneia, o Obededoma, a o Ieiala na kiaipuka.
With them were their kinsmen of second rank: Zechariah, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed Edom, and Jeiel, the gatekeepers.
19 Pela na mea hoolea, o Hemana, o Asapa, a o Etana, e hookani lakou me na kimebala keleawe:
The musicians Heman, Asaph, and Ethan were appointed to play loud bronze cymbals.
20 A o Zekaria, o Aziela, o Semiramota, o Iehiela, o Uni, o Eliaba, o Maaseia, a o Benaia, me na pesaleteria ma ka Ieo kiekie;
Zechariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah, and Benaiah played the stringed instruments, set to Alamoth.
21 A o Matitia, o Elipele, o Mikeneia, o Obededoma, o Ieiela, o Azazia, me na lira ma ka leo haahaa e alakai ai.
Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed Edom, Jeiel, and Azaziah led the way with harps set to the Sheminith.
22 A o Kenania, ka luna o ka Levi, no ka leo mele no ia; ao aku la ia i ka leomele, no ka mea, he akamai kona.
Kenaniah, leader of the Levites, was the director of the singing because he was a teacher of music.
23 A o Berekia laua o Elekana na kiaipuka no ka pahu.
Berechiah and Elkanah were guards for the ark.
24 A o Sebenia, o Iehosapata, o Netaneela, o Amasai, o Zekerta, o Benaia, a o Eliezera, na kahuna i puhi i na pu imua o ka pahu o ke Akua: a o Obededoma laua o Iehia na kiaipuka no ka pahu.
Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, were to blow the trumpets before the ark of God. Obed Edom and Jehiah were guards for the ark.
25 Pela o Davida me na lunakahiko o ka Iseraela a me na luna tausani i hele aku ai, e lawe mai i ka pahuberita o Iehova, mai ka hale o Obededoma mai me ka olioli.
So David, the elders of Israel, and the commanders over thousands went to bring up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh out of Obed Edom's house with rejoicing.
26 A i ka manawa a ke Akua i kokua mai ai i na Levi e amo ana i ka pahuberita o Iehova, alaila mohai aku la lakou i na bipikane ehiku, a me na hipakane ehiku.
While God helped the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.
27 Ua aahuia o Davida i ka aahu makue, a me na Levi e amo ana i ka pahu a me ka poe memele, a o Kenania ke kumu ao i ka mele, a me ka poe memele: maluna hoi o Davida kekahi epoda olona.
David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, as were the Levites who carried the ark, the singers, and Kenaniah, the leader of the song with the singers. David was wearing a linen ephod.
28 Pela ka Iseraela a pau i lawe mai ai i ka pahuberita o Iehova me ka hooho ana, a me ke kani ana o ke koreneta, a o na pu, a mo na kimebala, e hookani ana hoi i na pesaleteria a me na lira.
So all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of Yahweh with joyful shouting, and with the sound of horns and trumpets, with cymbals, and with stringed instruments and harps.
29 A hiki mai la ka pahuberita o Iehova i ke kulanakauhale o Davida, nana mai la o Mikala ke kaikamahine a Saula ma ka pukamakani, a ike mai la i ke alii ia Davida e haa ana a e hookani ana: hoowahawaha iho la oia ia ia maloko o kona naau.
But as the ark of the covenant of Yahweh came to the city of David, Michal daughter of Saul, looked out the window. She saw King David dancing and celebrating. Then she despised him in her heart.
