Ii Samuelis 6

1 congregavit autem rursum David omnes electos ex Israhel triginta milia

And David again gathered all the young men of Israel, about seventy thousand.

2 surrexitque et abiit et universus populus qui erat cum eo de viris Iuda ut adducerent arcam Dei super quam invocatum est nomen Domini exercituum sedentis in cherubin super eam

And David arose, and went, he and all the people that were with him, and some of the rulers of Juda, on an expedition [to a distant place], to bring back thence the ark of God, on which the name of the Lord of Host who dwells between the cherubs upon it is called.

3 et inposuerunt arcam Domini super plaustrum novum tuleruntque eam de domo Abinadab qui erat in Gabaa Oza autem et Haio filii Abinadab minabant plaustrum novum

And they put the ark of the Lord on a new waggon, and took it out of the house of Aminadab who lived on the hill, and Oza and his brethren the sons of Aminadab drove the waggon with the ark.

4 cumque tulissent eam de domo Abinadab qui erat in Gabaa custodiens arcam Dei Haio praecedebat arcam

And his brethren went before the ark.

5 David autem et omnis Israhel ludebant coram Domino in omnibus lignis fabrefactis et citharis et lyris et tympanis et sistris et cymbalis

And David and the children of Israel [were] playing before the Lord on well-tuned instruments mightily, and with songs, and with harps, and with lutes, and with drums, and with cymbals, and with pipes.

6 postquam autem venerunt ad aream Nachon extendit manum Oza ad arcam Dei et tenuit eam quoniam calcitrabant boves

And they come as far as the threshing floor of Nachor: and Oza reached forth his hand to the ark of God to keep it steady, and took hold of it; for the ox shook it out of its place.

7 iratusque est indignatione Dominus contra Ozam et percussit eum super temeritate qui mortuus est ibi iuxta arcam Dei

And the Lord was very angry with Oza; and God struck him there: and he died there by the ark of the Lord before God.

8 contristatus autem est David eo quod percussisset Dominus Ozam et vocatum est nomen loci illius Percussio Oza usque in diem hanc

And David was dispirited because the Lord made a breach upon Oza; and that place was called the breach of Oza until this day.

9 et extimuit David Dominum in die illa dicens quomodo ingredietur ad me arca Domini

And David feared the Lord in that day, saying, How shall the ark of the Lord come in to me?

10 et noluit devertere ad se arcam Domini in civitate David sed devertit eam in domo Obededom Getthei

And David would not bring in the ark of the covenant of the Lord to himself into the city of David: and David turned it aside into the house of Abeddara the Gethite.

11 et habitavit arca Domini in domo Obededom Getthei tribus mensibus et benedixit Dominus Obededom et omnem domum eius

And the ark of the Lord lodged in the house of Abeddara the Gethite three months, and the Lord blessed all the house of Abeddara, and all his possessions.

12 nuntiatumque est regi David benedixit Dominus Obededom et omnia eius propter arcam Dei abiit ergo David et adduxit arcam Dei de domo Obededom in civitatem David cum gaudio

And it was reported to king David, saying, The Lord has blessed the house of Abeddara, and all that he has, because of the ark of the Lord. And David went, and brought up the Ark of the Lord from the house of Abeddara to the city of David with gladness.

13 cumque transcendissent qui portabant arcam Domini sex passus immolabat bovem et arietem

And there were with him bearing the ark seven bands, and for a sacrifice a calf and lambs.

14 et David saltabat totis viribus ante Dominum porro David erat accinctus ephod lineo

And David sounded with well-tuned instruments before the Lord, and David [was] clothed with a fine long robe.

15 et David et omnis domus Israhel ducebant arcam testamenti Domini in iubilo et in clangore bucinae

And David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting, and with the sound of a trumpet.

16 cumque intrasset arca Domini civitatem David Michol filia Saul prospiciens per fenestram vidit regem David subsilientem atque saltantem coram Domino et despexit eum in corde suo

And it came to pass as the ark arrived at the city of David, that Melchol the daughter of Saul looked through the window, and saw king David dancing and playing before the Lord; and she despised him in her heart.

17 et introduxerunt arcam Domini et posuerunt eam in loco suo in medio tabernaculi quod tetenderat ei David et obtulit David holocausta coram Domino et pacifica

And they bring the ark of the Lord, and set it in its place in the midst of the tabernacle which David pitched for it: and David offered whole burnt offerings before the Lord, [and] peace-offerings.

18 cumque conplesset offerens holocaustum et pacifica benedixit populo in nomine Domini exercituum

And David made an end of offering the whole burnt offerings and peace-offerings, and blessed the people in the name of the Lord of Hosts.

19 et partitus est multitudini universae Israhel tam viro quam mulieri singulis collyridam panis unam et assaturam bubulae carnis unam et similam frixam oleo et abiit omnis populus unusquisque in domum suam

And he distributed to all the people, even to all the host of Israel from Dan to Bersabee, both men and women, to every one a cake of bread, and a joint of meat, and a cake from the frying-pan: and all the people departed every one to his home.

20 reversusque est et David ut benediceret domui suae et egressa Michol filia Saul in occursum David ait quam gloriosus fuit hodie rex Israhel discoperiens se ante ancillas servorum suorum et nudatus est quasi si nudetur unus de scurris

And David returned to bless his house. And Melchol the daughter of Saul came out to meet David and saluted him, and said, How was the king of Israel glorified today, who was today uncovered in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the dancers wantonly uncovers himself!

21 dixitque David ad Michol ante Dominum qui elegit me potius quam patrem tuum et quam omnem domum eius et praecepit mihi ut essem dux super populum Domini Israhel

And David said to Melchol, I will dance before the Lord. Blessed [be] the Lord who chose me before your father, and before all his house, to make me head over his people, even over Israel: therefore I will play, and dance before the Lord.

22 et ludam et vilior fiam plus quam factus sum et ero humilis in oculis meis et cum ancillis de quibus locuta es gloriosior apparebo

And I will again uncover myself thus, and I will be vile in your eyes, and with the maidservants by whom you said that I was not had in honor.

23 igitur Michol filiae Saul non est natus filius usque ad diem mortis suae

And Melchol the daughter of Saul had no child till the day of her death.
