< Otra Samuela 6 >
1 Pēc tam Dāvids atkal sapulcināja visus jaunos vīrus iekš Israēla, trīsdesmit tūkstošus.
Then David chose 30,000 Israeli men and gathered them together.
2 Un Dāvids cēlās un nogāja ar visiem ļaudīm, kas pie viņa bija, uz Baālu Jūdā (Kiriatjearimu), ka no turienes atvestu Dieva šķirstu, pie kā top piesaukts tas vārds, Tā Kunga Cebaot vārds, kas sēž pār ķerubiem.
He led them to the place in Judah [formerly] called Baalah, [now called Kiriath-Jearim]. They went in order to bring from there [to Jerusalem] the sacred chest, which had the name of Yahweh, the leader of the armies of [the angels in] heaven, written on it, and which had the [statues of the] winged creatures on top of it. Between those statues was where Yahweh spoke messages about ruling his people [MTY].
3 Un tie veda Dieva šķirstu ar jauniem ratiem un ņēma to no Abinadaba nama, kas tai pakalnā; un Uza un Ahijus, Abinadaba dēli, vadīja tos jaunos ratus.
The sacred chest was in the house of Abinadab, on top of a hill. They went there, and they put the chest on a new cart. Uzzah and Ahio, the two sons of Abinadab, were guiding [the oxen that were pulling the cart].
4 Kad tie nu Dieva šķirstu ņēma no Abinadaba nama, kas tai pakalnā, tad Ahijus gāja šķirsta priekšā.
Uzzah walked alongside the cart, and Ahio walked in front of it.
5 Un Dāvids un viss Israēla nams līksmojās Tā Kunga priekšā ar visādiem priežu koka mūzikas rīkiem, ar koklēm un ar stabulēm un ar bungām un ar zvārguļiem un ar pulkstenīšiem.
David and all the Israeli men were celebrating in God’s presence, singing with all their strength and [playing] lyres and harps, and beating tambourines, and clashing castanets and cymbals.
6 Kad tie nu nāca pie Nahona klona, tad Uza izstiepa roku pie Dieva šķirsta un to turēja, jo vēršiem kājas slīdēja.
But when they came to the place where Nacon threshed grain, the oxen stumbled. So Uzzah put his hand on the sacred chest to (steady it/prevent it from falling [off the cart]).
7 Tad Tā Kunga dusmas iedegās pret Uzu, un Dievs viņu tur kāva tās drošības dēļ un viņš tur nomira pie Dieva šķirsta.
Yahweh immediately became very angry with Uzzah, and he killed him right there alongside the sacred chest, because he had touched the chest, [and Yahweh had commanded that only the descendants of Levi who help the priests should touch the sacred chest].
8 Un Dāvidam gāja pie sirds, ka Tas Kungs tādu robu cirtis, Uzu sizdams, un to vietu nosauca PerecUza (Uzas robs) līdz šai dienai.
David was angry because Yahweh had punished Uzzah. So ever since that time, that place has been called ‘The Punishment of Uzzah’.
9 Un Dāvids bijās To Kungu tai dienā un sacīja: kā lai pārnāk Tā Kunga šķirsts pie manis?
David was [also] afraid of [what else] Yahweh [would do to punish them], so he said, “(How can I take the sacred chest with me [to Jerusalem]?/I am afraid to take the sacred chest with me [to Jerusalem].)” [RHQ]
10 Un Dāvids Tā Kunga šķirstu negribēja vest pie sevis uz Dāvida pilsētu, bet Dāvids to lika vest ObedEdoma, tā Gatieša, namā.
So he did not want to take the sacred chest to Jerusalem. Instead, they took it to another place; they took it to the house of Obed-Edom, from Gath [city].
11 Un Tā Kunga šķirsts palika ObedEdoma, tā Gatieša, namā trīs mēnešus, un Tas Kungs svētīja ObedEdomu un visu viņa namu.
They left the sacred chest in the house of Obed-Edom for three months, and [during that time] Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom and his family.
12 Tad ķēniņam Dāvidam teica un sacīja: Tas Kungs ObedEdoma namu ir svētījis ar visu, kas tam pieder, Dieva šķirsta labad. Tad Dāvids gāja un pārveda Dieva šķirstu no ObedEdoma nama uz Dāvida pilsētu ar prieku.
Later, people told David, “Yahweh has blessed Obed-Edom and his family because [he is taking care] of the sacred chest!” When David heard that, he [and some other men] went to Obed-Edom’s house, and very joyfully brought the sacred chest from there to Jerusalem.
13 Un kad Tā Kunga šķirsta nesēji sešus soļus bija pagājuši, tad viņš upurēja vērsi un barotu teļu.
[This time, descendants of Levi] were carrying the sacred chest, but when they had walked only six steps, they stopped, and there David killed a bull and a fat calf, and offered them to Yahweh for a sacrifice.
14 Un Dāvids dejoja ar visu spēku Tā Kunga priekšā, un Dāvids bija apjozies ar nātnu efodu.
David was wearing [only] a linen cloth wrapped around his waist, and was dancing very energetically to honor Yahweh.
15 Tā Dāvids un viss Israēla nams pārveda Tā Kunga šķirstu ar gavilēšanu un bazūņu skaņu.
David and the Israeli men took the sacred chest up [to Jerusalem], shouting [loudly] and blowing trumpets.
16 Kad nu Tā Kunga šķirsts nāca Dāvida pilsētā, tad Mikale, Saula meita, skatījās pa logu un redzēja ķēniņu Dāvidu Tā Kunga priekšā dejojam un lecam un to nicināja savā sirdī.
While they were carrying the sacred chest into the city, [David’s wife] Michal, who was Saul’s daughter, looked out the window [of her house]. She saw King David leaping and dancing to honor Yahweh. So she was disgusted with him.
17 Un tie ieveda Tā Kunga šķirstu un to nolika savā vietā tās telts vidū, ko Dāvids priekš tā bija uzcēlis. Un Dāvids upurēja dedzināmos upurus un pateicības upurus Tā Kunga priekšā.
They brought the sacred chest into the tent that David had erected for it. Then David gave to Yahweh offerings to be completely burned [on an altar], and other offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.
18 Kad nu Dāvids bija pabeidzis upurēt dedzināmos upurus un pateicības upurus, tad viņš tos ļaudis svētīja Tā Kunga Cebaot vārdā.
When David had finished offering those sacrifices, he asked Yahweh, the Commander of the armies [of the angels], to bless the people.
19 Un visiem ļaudīm, visai Israēla draudzei, gan vīriem, gan sievām, viņš izdalīja ikkatram pa karašai un pa gaļas gabalam un pa vīnogu rausim. Un visi ļaudis nogāja ikviens savā namā.
He also distributed food to all the people. To each Israeli man and woman he gave a loaf of bread, some meat, and a raisin cake. Then all the people returned to their homes.
20 Kad nu Dāvids atpakaļ griezās, sveicināt savu namu, tad Mikale, Saula meita, Dāvidam izgāja pretī un sacīja: cik ļoti Israēla ķēniņš šodien pagodinājies, kas šodien priekš savu kalpu kalponēm ir atsedzies, tā kā atsedzās neliešu ļaudis!
When David went home to [ask Yahweh to] bless his family, his wife Michal came out to meet him. She said to him, “Maybe you, the king of Israel, [think that you] [IRO] were honoring yourself today, but really, you acted like a fool, uncovering yourself while the female servants of your officials were watching!”
21 Bet Dāvids sacīja uz Mikali: Tā Kunga priekšā es esmu līksmojies, kas mani izredzējis tava tēva vietā un visa viņa nama vietā, mani ieceldams par valdītāju Tā Kunga ļaudīm, Israēlim.
David replied to Michal, “[I was doing that] to honor Yahweh, who chose me instead of your father and other members of his family, to be the king of the Israeli people, the people who belong to Yahweh. And I will [continue to] dance to honor Yahweh!
22 Un es vēl vairāk pazemošos nekā tā, un būšu zems savās acīs, un ar tām kalponēm, par ko tu runājusi, ar tām es gribu tikt godā.
[Even though you think that what I did] was disgraceful, I will continue to do it even more. You may despise me [because of what I did], but the women whom you were talking about will honor me!”
23 Un Mikale, Saula meita, palika bez bērna līdz savai miršanas dienai.
[As a result, ] Saul’s daughter Michal never gave birth to any children.
