1 Hagi Deviti'a 1tauseni'a sondia vahetema kegavama hu'naza kva vahe'ene 100'a sondia vahetema kegavama hu'naza kva vahe'ene, maka ugagota kva vahetmina zamavare atru huno keaga huno antahintahizmia eri'ne.
[One day] David talked with all his army officers. Some of them were commanders of 100 soldiers and some were commanders of 1,000 soldiers.
2 Ana'ma nehuno'a amanage huno Israeli vahera zamasami'ne, Tamagrama hugnarerema nehanageno, Ra Anumzamofo avesi'ma me'nena maka Israeli vahetegane, kumazmifine, trazama nenaza afutamima kegavama nehaza mopafima nemaniza pristi vaheteganena kea atresunke'za maka vahe'mo'za e'za eme atru hugahaze.
Then he summoned the other Israeli leaders and said to all of them, “If it seems to you to be a good thing for us to do, and if it is what Yahweh our God wants, let’s send a message to our fellow Israelis in all the areas of our country, including the priests and [other] descendants of Levi who are living among them in their towns and in the nearby pasturelands, to come and join us,
3 Hagi enketa Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisi ete omerita esune. Na'ankure Soli'ma kinima mani'neno kegavama hu'nea knafina, ana zankura tagra tagesa ontahi mani'none.
because we want to bring the Sacred Chest of our God back to us. While Saul [was the king], we did not go to God’s presence to ask him what we should do.”
4 Hagi anagema hige'za, atruma hu'naza maka vahe'mo'za mago zamarimpa hu'za kema hanazana hugahune hu'za hu'naze. Na'ankure antahintahima retro'ma hazazamo'a maka vahe'mofo zamavurera fatgo hu'ne.
All the people agreed with David, because they all thought that it was the right thing to do.
5 E'ina higeno Deviti'a Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisima Kiriat-Jearimi kumateti'ma omerinaku'ma Israeli vahe'ma zmavre atru'ma hu'neana Isipia sauti kaziga Sihori tinteti agafa huno manino vuno noti kaziga Lebo-hamati kumate'ma uhanati'nea Israeli vahera maka zamavare atru hu'ne.
So David gathered all the Israeli people, from the Shihor [River] in Egypt to Lebo-Hamath [town in the north, and told them that he wanted them] to [help] bring the Sacred Chest of God [back to Jerusalem] from Kiriath-Jearim [city].
6 Ana huteno Deviti'ene maka Israeli vahe'enena Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisi omerinaku Juda nagamofo moparega Kiriat-Jearimi vu'naze. Hagi ana vogisimofo agofetura tare ankerontre trohuntenegeno, ana ankerontremofo amu'nompi Ra Anumzamomofo kini trara mani'nege'za agia nehaza vogisie.
David went with all the Israeli people to Baalah [town], which is [another name for] Kiriath-Jearim, to get the Sacred Chest. [The people believed that] God ruled from between the statues of winged creatures that was above the lid of the Sacred Chest [MTY].
7 Hagi Abinadapu nompintira kasefa karisifi Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisi erinte'za eri'za e'naze. Hagi ana karisia Uzake Ahioke kegava huke e'na'e.
The people put the Sacred Chest on a new cart and transported it from Abinadab’s house. Uzzah and Ahio were guiding [the oxen that were pulling the cart].
8 Hagi eri'zama nevazageno'a Devit'ene Israeli vahe'mo'zanena Anumzamofo avuga maka hankavezmireti hu'za, hapue nehaza zavenane, lairiema nehaza zavenane konkena nere'za zozopanetiza, nasenasepa nehe'za ufena re'za zagamera hu'za musena hu'naze.
David and all the Israeli people were celebrating in God’s presence with all their strength. They were singing and [playing] lyres, harps, tambourines, and cymbals, and [blowing] trumpets.
9 Hagi ana hume eza Kidonima witi honama refuzafu'ma nepea kumapima azageno'a, Uza'a azana ante kantuteno Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisia azeri'ne. Na'ankure ana huhagerafi huvempage vogisima eri'nea bulimakao afu'mo'a tanafa huno maseza higeno anara hu'ne.
But when David’s men came to the place where Kidon threshed grain, the oxen stumbled. So Uzzah reached out with his hand to prevent the Sacred Chest from falling off the cart.
10 Hagi ana'ma higeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a Uzana tusi arimpa ahenenteno, ahe fri'ne. Na'ankure Uza'a huhagerafi huvempage vogisi avako hu'negeno'e. Ana higeno Uza'a Anumzamofo avuga fri'ne.
Yahweh immediately became very angry with Uzzah, and he caused Uzzah to suddenly die there because he had put his hand on the Sacred Chest, [and Yahweh had commanded that only the descendants of Levi who help the priests should touch the Sacred Chest].
11 Ana'ma higeno'a Ra Anumzamo'ma Uzama ahe fria zankura Deviti'a tusi arimpa ahenenteno, ana kumakura Perez-uzae huno agia antemigeno meno eno, ama knarera ehanati'ne.
David was angry because Yahweh had punished [MTY] Uzzah. And now that place [where Uzzah died] is called ‘The Punishment of Uzzah’.
12 Hagi ana knarera Deviti'a Anumzamofonkura koro nehuno amanage hu'ne, inankna hu'na Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisia eri'na noniarega vugahue?
That day, David was afraid of God. He asked [himself], “(How can I bring God’s Sacred Chest to my [city]?/I am afraid to bring God’s Sacred Chest to my [city].)” [RHQ]
13 E'inage nehuno Deviti'a ana huhagerafi huvempage vogisia erino noma'arega ovu'neanki, Gati kumate ne' Obed-Edomu nompi eri kantiteno ante'ne.
So the men with David did not take the Sacred Chest to Jerusalem. Instead, they took it to the house of Obed-Edom, who was from Gath [city].
14 Hagi Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage vogisimo'a, Obed-Edomu nompina 3'a ika me'ne. Hagi ana'ma higeno'a, Ra Anumzamo'a Obed-Edomune naga'ane maka zantmima'a asomu hunte'ne.
The Sacred Chest stayed with Obed-Edom’s family in his house for three months. And [during that time] Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom’s family and everything that he owned.
