Sie Chronicle 15

1 David el musaela kutu lohm in Siti sel David tuh in lohm sel sifacna. El oayapa akoo sie acn nu ke Tuptup in Wuleang lun God, ac el tulokunak sie lohm nuknuk nu kac.

And he made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and spread a tent for it.

2 Na David el fahk, “Mwet Levi mukena pa fal in us Tuptup in Wuleang, mweyen elos pa sulosolla sin LEUM GOD tuh elos in us, ac in kulansap nu sel nwe tok.”

Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites, for them has Jehovah chosen to carry the ark of God, and to serve him for ever.

3 Ouinge David el pangoneni mwet Israel nukewa nu Jerusalem, tuh elos in use Tuptup in Wuleang nu ke acn se el akoela nu kac.

And David assembled all Israel to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Jehovah to its place that he had prepared for it.

4 Tukun ma inge David el sapla nu sin mwet in fwil natul Aaron ac mwet Levi.

And David gathered the sons of Aaron and the Levites:

5 Ke sou lulap lal Kohath in sruf lun mwet Levi, Uriel el mwet kol, ac mwet siofok longoul in sou lal welul.

of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty;

6 Sin sou lal Merari, Asaiah el mwet kol, ac mwet luofoko longoul in sou lal welul.

of the sons of Merari, Asaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty;

7 Sin sou lal Gershon, Joel el mwet kol, ac mwet siofok tolngoul in sou lal welul.

of the sons of Gershom, Joel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and thirty;

8 Sin sou lal Elizaphan, Shemaiah el mwet kol, ac mwet luofoko in sou lal welul.

of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred;

9 Sin sou lal Hebron, Eliel el mwet kol, ac mwet oalngoul in sou lal welul.

of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brethren eighty;

10 Sin sou lal Uzziel, Amminadab el mwet kol, ac mwet siofok singoul luo in sou lal welul.

of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twelve.

11 David el solani mwet tol Zadok ac Abiathar, ac mwet Levi onkosr inge: Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, ac Amminadab.

And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab;

12 El fahk nu sin mwet Levi, “Kowos pa mwet kol lun sou lulap lun mwet Levi. Kowos in aknasnasye kowos oayapa mwet Levi wiowos, tuh kowos in ku in use Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD lun Israel nu in acn se nga akoela nu kac.

and he said to them, Ye are the chief fathers of the Levites; hallow yourselves, ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of Jehovah the God of Israel to [the place that] I have prepared for it.

13 Ke sripen kowos wangin ke pacl se meet ma kut tuh srike in use, na pa LEUM GOD lasr El tuh kai kut mweyen kut tuh tia oru akfulat su fal in orek nu sel.”

For because ye did [it] not at the first, Jehovah our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order.

14 Na mwet tol ac mwet Levi elos aknasnasyalos tuh elos in mau ku in moklema Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD lun Israel.

So the priests and the Levites hallowed themselves to bring up the ark of Jehovah the God of Israel.

15 Mwet Levi elos us Tuptup uh finpisalos ke srenenu, in oana ke LEUM GOD El tuh sapkin nu sel Moses.

And the children of the Levites bore the ark of God upon their shoulders with the staves upon them, as Moses had commanded according to the word of Jehovah.

16 David el sap mwet kol lun mwet Levi in sulela kutu mwet lalos in on, ac kutu in srital ke harp ac cymbal, in fahkak pusren engan lulap.

And David spoke to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren, the singers, with instruments of music, lutes, and harps, and cymbals, that they should sound aloud, lifting up the voice with joy.

17 Ouinge mwet Levi elos sulela mwet inge liki sou lun mwet on: Heman wen natul Joel, oayapa sie mukul in sou lal, su Asaph wen natul Berechiah; ac Ethan wen natul Kushaiah, su ma wialos ke sou lal Merari;

And the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brethren, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;

18 na mukul wialtal in fwil se akluo: Zechariah, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, ac mwet luo su liyaung mutunpot: Obed Edom ac Jeiel.

and with them their brethren of the second [rank], Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, the doorkeepers;

19 Mwet in srital ke cymbal orek ke bronze pa Heman, Asaph, ac Ethan.

and the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, to sound aloud with cymbals of brass;

20 Mwet in srital ke harp ma fulat pusra uh pa Zechariah, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah ac Benaiah.

and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with lutes on Alamoth;

21 Mwet inge pa srital ke harp ma toasr pusra uh: Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed Edom, Jeiel, ac Azaziah.

and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to lead [the singing].

22 Elos sulella Chenaniah in kol mwet on inge nukewa lun mwet Levi, mweyen yohk etu lal ke on.

And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites for the music, gave instruction in music, for he was skilful.

23 Mwet in taran Tuptup in Wuleang pa Berechiah, Elkanah,

And Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.

24 Obed Edom, ac Jehiah. Mwet in fahsr meet liki Tuptup uh ac ukya mwe ukuk pa mwet tol inge: Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah, ac Eliezer.

And Shebaniah, and Jehoshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, blew with the trumpets before the ark of God; and Obed-Edom and Jehijah were doorkeepers for the ark.

25 Tokosra David, ac mwet kol lun mwet Israel, ac captain lun un mwet mweun, elos tukeni som in use Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD liki lohm sel Obed Edom, ac elos engan ma lulap.

And David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of the house of Obed-Edom with joy.

26 Elos kisakin cow mukul itkosr ac sheep mukul itkosr mwe akpwayeye lah God El ac fah kasru mwet Levi su us Tuptup in Wuleang.

And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites that bore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, that they sacrificed seven bullocks and seven rams.

27 David el nukum sie nuknuk loeloes orek ke linen wowo. Mwet on nukewa, ac Chenaniah su mwet kol lalos, oayapa mwet Levi su us Tuptup uh, elos nukewa nukum nuknuk linen oana David. David el oayapa nukum sie ephod lun mwet tol orekla ke linen.

And David was clothed with a robe of byssus, and all the Levites that bore the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah chief of the music of the singers; and David had upon him a linen ephod.

28 Na mwet Israel nukewa elos welulos fahsr ac usak Tuptup in Wuleang nu Jerusalem ke pusren engan ac sasa, oayapa pusren mwe ukuk, trumpet, cymbal, ac harp.

And all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah with shouting, and with sound of the trumpet, and with clarions, and with cymbals, playing aloud with lutes and harps.

29 Ke Tuptup sac utyak nu in siti uh, na Michal, acn natul Saul, el ngetla liki winto uh ac liyal Tokosra David ke el tacn ac onsrosro ke engan lulap, na Michal el arulana toasr sel kac.

And it came to pass as the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked through a window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.
