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 captains of thousands, and of 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 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] suburbs, that they may assemble to us:
3 Tozongisa Sanduku ya Nzambe na biso epai na biso, pamba te tolandelaki yango te tango Saulo azalaki mokonzi. »
And let us bring again to us the ark of our God: for we 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 they would do so: for the thing 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, from Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath-jearim.
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, and all Israel, to Baalah, [that is], to Kirjath-jearim, 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 carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
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 with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, 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 to the threshing-floor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.
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 put his hand to the ark: and there he died 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 David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perez-uzza to 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 the ark of God [home] to me?
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 brought not the ark to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside 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 with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that he had.
