2 Samwiri 6
1 Dawudi n’akuŋŋaanya nate abasajja abaawera emitwalo esatu be yalonda mu Isirayiri.
And David again gathered all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 N’agolokoka n’agenda n’abantu bonna abaali naye, okuva e Baale, Yuda, okuggyayo essanduuko ya Katonda eyitibwa Erinnya lya Mukama ow’Eggye atuula ku ntebe ye ey’obwakabaka wakati wa bakerubi.
And David arose and went with all the people that were with him from Baale-Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God which is called by the name, the name of Jehovah of hosts who sitteth between the cherubim.
3 Ne bateeka essanduuko ya Katonda ku ggaali empya ne bagiggya mu nnyumba ya Abinadaabu eyali ku lusozi, Uzza ne Akiyo batabani be ne bagikulembera
And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was upon the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.
4 ng’essanduuko ya Katonda kweri, Akiyo ng’agikulembeddemu.
And they brought it with the ark of God out of the house of Abinadab which was upon the hill; and Ahio went before the ark.
5 Dawudi n’ennyumba yonna eya Isirayiri ne bajaguliza mu maaso ga Mukama n’amaanyi gaabwe gonna, nga bayimba ennyimba nga bakuba ennanga, n’entongooli, n’ebitaasa, n’ensaasi, n’ebirala.
And David and all the house of Israel played before Jehovah on all manner of [instruments made of] cypress wood, with harps, and with lutes, and with tambours, and with sistra, and with cymbals.
6 Awo bwe baatuuka mu gguuliro lya Nakoni, ente bwe zeesittala, Uzza n’agolola omukono gwe n’akwata ku ssanduuko ya Katonda.
And when they came to Nachon's threshing-floor, Uzzah reached after the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen had stumbled.
7 Obusungu bwa Mukama ne bubuubuukira ku Uzza olw’ekikolwa ekyo, Katonda n’amuttira awo okumpi n’essanduuko ya Katonda.
And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.
8 Awo Dawudi n’anyiiga kubanga obusungu bwa Mukama bwagwa ku Uzza, n’atuuma ekifo ekyo Peruzuzza, ne leero.
And David was indignant, because Jehovah had made a breach upon Uzzah; and he called that place Perez-Uzzah to this day.
9 Olunaku olwo Dawudi n’atya Mukama, n’ayogera nti, “Essanduuko ya Mukama eyinza etya okuleetebwa gye ndi?”
And David was afraid of Jehovah that day, and said, How shall the ark of Jehovah come to me?
10 Dawudi n’atayagala kutwala ssanduuko ya Mukama mu kibuga kya Dawudi, era n’asalawo okugitwala mu nnyumba ya Obededomu Omugitti.
So David would not bring the ark of Jehovah home unto himself into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
11 Essanduuko ya Mukama n’ebeera mu nnyumba ya Obededomu Omugitti emyezi esatu, era Mukama n’amuwa omukisa ye n’ennyumba ye yonna.
And the ark of Jehovah remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months; and Jehovah blessed Obed-Edom and all his household.
12 Awo Dawudi n’ategeezebwa nti, “Ennyumba ya Obededomu n’ebintu bye byonna biweereddwa omukisa olw’essanduuko ya Katonda.” Dawudi n’agenda n’aggyayo essanduuko ya Katonda mu nnyumba ya Obededomu n’agireeta mu kibuga kya Dawudi ng’ajaguza.
And it was told king David, saying, Jehovah has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that is his, because of the ark of God. And David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom into the city of David with joy.
13 Abaasitula essanduuko ya Mukama bwe baatambula ebigere mukaaga n’awaayo ente ennume n’ennyana ensava nga ssaddaaka.
And it was so, that when they that bore the ark of Jehovah had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatted beast.
14 Dawudi ng’ayambadde olugoye olwa linena, n’azinira mu maaso ga Mukama n’amaanyi ge gonna.
And David danced before Jehovah with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.
15 Dawudi n’ennyumba ya Isirayiri yonna ne baleeta essanduuko ya Mukama nga boogerera waggulu, era nga bafuuwa n’amakondeere.
And David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 Awo essanduuko ya Mukama bwe yali ng’ereetebwa mu kibuga kya Dawudi, Mikali muwala wa Sawulo, ng’ali mu ddirisa, n’alengera kabaka Dawudi ng’abuuka, ng’azinira mu maaso ga Mukama, n’amunyooma.
And as the ark of Jehovah came into the city of David, Michal the daughter of Saul looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before Jehovah; and she despised him in her heart.
17 Ne baleeta essanduuko ya Mukama ne bagiteeka mu kifo kyayo mu weema Dawudi gye yali agisimbidde, Dawudi n’awaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa, n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe, mu maaso ga Mukama.
And they brought in the ark of Jehovah, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had spread for it. And David offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before Jehovah.
18 Awo Dawudi bwe yamala okuwaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa n’ebiweebwayo olw’emirembe, n’asabira abantu omukisa mu linnya lya Mukama ow’eggye,
And when David had ended offering up the burnt-offerings and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Jehovah of hosts.
19 buli muntu n’amugabula omugaati, n’ekiyungula ky’ennyama, n’ekitole eky’ezabbibu enkalu, abasajja n’abakyala. N’oluvannyuma abantu bonna ne baddayo ewaabwe.
And he dealt to all the people, to the whole multitude of Israel, both men and women, to every one a cake of bread, and a measure [of wine], and a raisin-cake. And all the people departed every one to his house.
20 Dawudi n’addayo ewuwe okusabira ab’omu nnyumba ye omukisa, Mikali muwala wa Sawulo n’agenda okumusisinkana n’ayogera nti, “Kabaka wa Isirayiri ayinza atya okweswaza bw’atyo, ne yeyambulira mu maaso g’abawala abaweereza n’abaddu ng’omuntu atalina nsonyi?”
And David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How honourable did the king of Israel make himself to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the lewd fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!
21 Awo Dawudi n’agamba Mikali nti, “Nakikoledde mu maaso ga Mukama eyannonda okusinga kitaawo, n’ennyumba ye yonna okuba omukulembeze w’abantu ba Mukama, Isirayiri, era nzija kujagulizanga mu maaso ga Mukama.
And David said to Michal, It was before Jehovah, who chose me rather than thy father, and than all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of Jehovah, over Israel; and I played before Jehovah.
22 Nzija kweyongerera ddala okweswaza, era sijja kuswala mu maaso gange, naye mu maaso g’abawala abaweereza b’oyogeddeko, nnaasibwangamu ekitiibwa.”
And I will make myself yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight; and of the handmaids that thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.
23 Awo muwala wa Sawulo Mikali, n’abeera mugumba okutuusa olunaku lwe yafa.
And Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
