1 Masolo ya Kala 13
1 Davidi asangisaki bakonzi ya basoda, bakonzi ya bankoto mpe bakonzi ya bankama elongo na bato mosusu ya lokumu.
And David consulted with the officers of the thousands and hundreds, and with every leader.
2 Davidi alobaki na lisanga mobimba ya Isalaele: « Soki bomoni yango malamu mpe soki yango ezali mokano na Yawe, Nzambe na biso, tika ete totinda sango epai ya bandeko na biso oyo batikali na bituka nyonso ya Isalaele mpe epai ya Banganga-Nzambe elongo na Balevi, kati na bingumba oyo bango bazali kovanda mpo ete baya kosangana na biso.
And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, if it seem good unto you, and if it be of the Lord our God, let us send widely about unto our brethren who are left in all the lands of Israel, and with them unto the priests and Levites who are in their cities and open districts, that they may gather themselves together unto us.
3 Tozongisa Sanduku ya Nzambe na biso epai na biso, pamba te tolandelaki yango te tango Saulo azalaki mokonzi. »
And let us bring round the ark of our God to us; for we have inquired not at it in the days of Saul.
4 Lisanga mobimba endimaki ete basala bongo, pamba te likambo yango emonanaki malamu na miso ya bato nyonso.
And all the congregation said that this should be done; for the king was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 Davidi asangisaki bana nyonso ya Isalaele longwa na moluka ya Ejipito kino na Lebo-Amati, mpo na kozongisa Sanduku ya Nzambe wuta na Kiriati-Yearimi.
So David assembled all Israel together, from Shichor of Egypt even unto the entrance of Chemath, to bring the ark of God from Kiryath-ye'arim.
6 Davidi elongo na basoda nyonso ya Isalaele bakendeki na Baala, na Kiriati-Yearimi oyo ezali kati na Yuda, mpo na kolongola kuna Sanduku ya Nzambe, oyo, liboso na yango, bazalaki kobelela Kombo ya Yawe oyo avandaka kati na basheribe.
And David went up, with all Israel, to Ba'alah, [that is] to Kiryath-ye'arim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the Lord, that dwelleth between the cherubim, whose name is called [on it].
7 Batiaki Sanduku ya Nzambe na likolo ya shario ya sika mpe bamemaki yango wuta na ndako ya Abinadabi. Uza mpe Ayiyo nde bazalaki kotambolisa shario yango.
And they conveyed the ark of God in a new wagon out of the house of Abinadab: and 'Uzza and Achyo guided the wagon.
8 Davidi mpe bato nyonso ya Isalaele bazalaki kosepela makasi na liboso ya Nzambe, na koyemba mpe na kobeta mandanda, banzenze, bambunda ya mike-mike, manzanza mpe bakelelo.
And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and on harps, and on psalteries, and on tambourines, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
9 Tango bakomaki na etando ya Kidoni, Uza asembolaki loboko na ye mpo na kosimba Sanduku ya Nzambe, pamba te bangombe eselumukaki mpe elingaki kokweyisa Sanduku ya Nzambe.
And when they came as far as the threshing-floor of Kidon, 'Uzza put forth his hand to take hold of the ark; for the oxen shook it.
10 Yawe asilikelaki Uza makasi mpe abetaki ye mpo ete asembolaki loboko na ye mpe asimbaki Sanduku ya Nzambe. Boye, Uza akufaki kaka wana liboso ya Nzambe.
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against 'Uzza, and he smote him, because he had put forth his hand toward the ark: and he died there before God.
11 Davidi asilikaki makasi mpo ete Yawe afungolaki lidusu na kobeta Uza; yango wana, kino na mokolo ya lelo, babengaka esika yango « Peretsi-Uza. »
And it was grievious to David, because the Lord had suddenly taken away 'Uzza; and he called that place Perez-'uzza [[Breach of 'Uzza]] until this day.
12 Na mokolo wana, Davidi abangaki Nzambe mpe amitunaki: « Ndenge nini namema Sanduku ya Nzambe epai na ngai? »
And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring home to me the ark of God?
13 Boye, Davidi amemaki te Sanduku ya Nzambe epai na ye, kati na engumba ya Davidi; kasi atiaki yango na ndako ya Obedi-Edomi, moto ya Gati.
So David removed not the ark unto himself into the city of David, but had it carried round into the house of 'Obed-edom the Gittite.
14 Sanduku ya Nzambe evandaki sanza misato kati na ndako ya Obedi-Edomi, mpe Yawe apambolaki libota ya Obedi-Edomi mpe biloko na ye nyonso.
And the ark of God remained in the house of 'Obed-edom, in his house, three months. And the Lord blessed the house of 'Obed-edom, and all that belonged to him.
