I Paralipomenon 13

1 iniit autem consilium David cum tribunis et centurionibus et universis principibus

And David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and with every leader.

2 et ait ad omnem coetum Israhel si placet vobis et a Domino Deo nostro egreditur sermo quem loquor mittamus ad fratres nostros reliquos in universas regiones Israhel et ad sacerdotes et Levitas qui habitant in suburbanis urbium ut congregentur ad nos

And David said to all the congregation of Israel, If it seemeth good to you, and that it is of the LORD our God, let us send abroad to our brethren every where, that are left in all the land of Israel, and with them also to the priests and Levites who are in their cities and common lands, that they may assemble to us:

3 et reducamus arcam Dei nostri ad nos non enim requisivimus eam in diebus Saul

And let us bring again to us the ark of our God: for we enquired not at it in the days of Saul.

4 et respondit universa multitudo ut ita fieret placuerat enim sermo omni populo

And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

5 congregavit ergo David cunctum Israhel a Sior Aegypti usque dum ingrediaris Emath ut adduceret arcam Dei de Cariathiarim

So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjathjearim.

6 et ascendit David et omnis vir Israhel ad collem Cariathiarim quae est in Iuda ut adferrent inde arcam Dei Domini sedentis super cherubin ubi invocatum est nomen eius

And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kirjathjearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth between the cherubim, whose name is called on it.

7 inposueruntque arcam Dei super plaustrum novum de domo Aminadab Oza autem et fratres eius minabant plaustrum

And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.

8 porro David et universus Israhel ludebant coram Deo omni virtute in canticis et in citharis et psalteriis et tympanis et cymbalis et tubis

And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.

9 cum autem pervenissent ad aream Chidon tetendit Oza manum suam ut sustentaret arcam bos quippe lasciviens paululum inclinaverat eam

And when they came to the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.

10 iratus est itaque Dominus contra Ozam et percussit eum eo quod contigisset arcam et mortuus est ibi coram Deo

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.

11 contristatusque David eo quod divisisset Dominus Ozam vocavit locum illum Divisio Oza usque in praesentem diem

And David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth upon Uzza: therefore that place is called Perezuzza to this day.

12 et timuit Deum tunc temporis dicens quomodo possum ad me introducere arcam Dei

And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God home to me?

13 et ob hanc causam non eam adduxit ad se hoc est in civitatem David sed avertit in domum Obededom Getthei

So David brought not the ark to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite.

14 mansit ergo arca Dei in domo Obededom tribus mensibus et benedixit Dominus domui eius et omnibus quae habebat

And the ark of God remained with the family of Obededom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obededom, and all that he had.
