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 made himself houses in David’s city; and he prepared a place for God’s ark, and pitched 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, “No one ought to carry God’s ark but the Levites. For Yahweh has chosen them to carry God’s ark, and to minister to 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.
David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up Yahweh’s ark to its place, which he had prepared for it.
4 Houluulu ae la o Davida i na mamo a Aarona, a me na Levi:
David gathered together the sons of Aaron and the Levites:
5 O na mamo a Kohata; o Uriela ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau hookahi haneri a me ka iwakalua:
of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, and his brothers one hundred twenty;
6 O na mamo a Merari; o Asaia ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he elua haneri a me ka iwakalua:
of the sons of Merari, Asaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred twenty;
7 O na mamo a Geresoma; o Ioela ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he haneri a me ke kanakolu;
of the sons of Gershom, Joel the chief, and his brothers one hundred thirty;
8 O na mamo a Elizapana; o Semaia ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he elua haneri:
of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred;
9 O na mamo a Heberona; o Eliela ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he kanawalu:
of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brothers eighty;
10 O na keikikane a Uziela; o Aminadaba ka luna, a o kona poe hoahanau he haneri a me ka umikumamalua.
of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brothers one hundred twelve.
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 for the Levites: for 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.
and said to them, “You are the heads of the fathers’ households of the Levites. Sanctify yourselves, both you and your brothers, that you may bring the ark of Yahweh, the God of Israel, up 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.
For because you didn’t carry it at first, Yahweh our God broke out in anger against us, because we didn’t seek him according to the ordinance.”
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 sanctified themselves to 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.
The children of the Levites bore God’s ark on their shoulders with its poles, as Moses commanded according to Yahweh’s word.
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 chief of the Levites to appoint their brothers as singers with instruments of music, stringed instruments, harps, and cymbals, sounding aloud and lifting up their voices with joy.
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 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;
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.
and with them their brothers of the second rank: Zechariah, Ben, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, the doorkeepers.
19 Pela na mea hoolea, o Hemana, o Asapa, a o Etana, e hookani lakou me na kimebala keleawe:
So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were given cymbals of bronze to sound aloud;
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;
and Zechariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with 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.
and Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps tuned to the eight-stringed lyre, to lead.
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.
Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was over the singing. He taught the singers, because he was skillful.
23 A o Berekia laua o Elekana na kiaipuka no ka pahu.
Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers 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, blew the trumpets before God’s ark; and Obed-Edom and Jehiah were doorkeepers 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 captains over thousands went to bring the ark of Yahweh’s covenant up out of the house of Obed-Edom with joy.
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.
When God helped the Levites who bore the ark of Yahweh’s covenant, 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 all the Levites who bore the ark, the singers, and Chenaniah the choir master with the singers; and David had an ephod of linen on him.
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.
Thus all Israel brought the ark of Yahweh’s covenant up with shouting, with sound of the cornet, with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding aloud 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.
As the ark of Yahweh’s covenant came to David’s city, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.
