< 2 Samoela 6 >

1 Ary novorin’ i Davida indray ny lehilahy voafantina rehetra tamin’ ny Isiraely, dia telo alina.
Now David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 Dia niainga Davida sy ny olona rehetra izay nanaraka azy ka niala tany Bala-joda hampakatra ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra izay niantsoana ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Izay mipetraka amin’ ny kerobima.
David arose and went with all his men who were with him from Baalah in Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the name of Yahweh of hosts, who sits enthroned over the cherubim.
3 Ary nataony teo amin’ ny sariety vaovao ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra ka nentiny avy tao an-tranon’ i Abinadaba teo an-kavoana; ary Oza sy Ahio, zanak’ i Abinadaba, no nampandeha ny sariety vaovao.
They set the ark of God on a new cart. They brought it out of Abinadab's house, which was on a hill. Uzzah and Ahio, his sons, were guiding the new cart.
4 Ary dia nentiny niala tao an-tranon’ i Abinadaba teo ankavoana niaraka tamin’ ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra izany; ary Ahio nandeha teo alohan’ ny fiara.
They brought the cart out of Abinadab's house on the hill with the ark of God on it. Ahio was walking in front of the ark.
5 Ary Davida sy ny taranak’ Isiraely rehetra nitsinjaka teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny karazan’ ny zava-maneno rehetra natao tamin’ ny hazo kypreso, dia tamin’ ny lokanga sy ny valiha sy ny ampongatapaka sy ny korintsana ary ny kipantsona.
Then David and all the house of Israel began to play before Yahweh, celebrating with wooden instruments, harps, lyres, tambourines, rattles, and cymbals.
6 Ary nony tonga teo amin’ ny famoloan’ i Nakona izy, dia naninjitra ny tanany tamin’ ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra Oza ka nihazona azy, satria nazeran’ ny omby ny fiara.
When they came to the threshing floor of Nakon, the oxen stumbled, and Uzzah reached out with his hand to grab the ark of God, and he took hold of it.
7 Dia nirehitra tamin’ i Oza ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah; ary namely azy teo Andriamanitra noho ny fahadisoany, ka dia maty teo anilan’ ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra izy.
Then the anger of Yahweh burned against Uzzah. God attacked him there for his sin. Uzzah died there by the ark of God.
8 Ary dia tezitra Davida noho ny namelezan’ i Jehovah an’ i Oza, ka dia nataony hoe Perez-oza ny anaran’ izany tany izany mandraka androany.
David was angry because Yahweh had attacked Uzzah, and he called the name of that place Perez Uzzah. That place is called Perez Uzza to this day.
9 Ary Davida natahotra an’ i Jehovah tamin’ izany andro izany ka nanao hoe: Nahoana no ho entina atỳ amiko ny fiaran’ i Jehovah?
David was afraid of Yahweh that day. He said, “How can the ark of Yahweh come to me?”
10 Ary Davida dia tsy nety namindra ny fiaran’ i Jehovah ho ao aminy ao an-Tanànan’ i Davida; fa naviliny ho ao an-tranon’ i Obed-edoma Gatita.
So David was not willing to take the ark of Yahweh with him into the city of David. Instead, he put it aside in the house of Obed Edom the Gittite.
11 Ary nipetraka telo volana tao an-tranon’ i Obed-edoma Gatita ny fiaran’ i Jehovah; ka dia notahin’ i Jehovah Obed-edoma sy ny ankohonany rehetra.
The ark of Yahweh remained in the house of Obed Edom the Gittite for three months. So Yahweh blessed him and all his household.
12 Ary nambara tamin’ i Davida mpanjaka hoe: Jehovah efa nitahy ny ankohonan’ i Obed-edoma sy izay nananany rehetra noho ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra. Dia nandeha Davida ka nampakatra ny fiaran’ Andriamanitra tamim-pifaliana avy tao an-tranon’ i Obed-edoma ho any an-Tanànan’ i Davida.
Now King David was told, “Yahweh has blessed Obed Edom's house and everything that belongs to him because of the ark of God.” So David went and brought up the ark of God from Obed Edom's house to the city of David with joy.
13 Ary rehefa namindra inenina ny mpitondra ny fiaran’ i Jehovah, dia namono omby sy zanak’ omby mifahy izy hatao fanatitra.
When those who were carrying the ark of Yahweh had gone six steps, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 Ary Davida nitsinjaka mafy dia mafy teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah sady nisalotra efoda rongony fotsy.
David danced before Yahweh with all his might; he was wearing only a linen ephod.
15 Ary Davida sy ny taranak’ i Isiraely rehetra nampakatra ny fiaran’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny hoby sy ny feon’ ny anjomara.
So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of Yahweh with shouting and the sound of trumpets.
16 Ary nony tonga teo an-Tanànan’ i Davida ny fiaran’ i Jehovah, dia nitsirika teo am-baravarankely Mikala, zanakavavin’ i Saoly, ka nahita an’ i Davida mpanjaka nibitaka sy nitsinjaka teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah; ka dia nikizaka azy tao am-pony izy.
Now as the ark of Yahweh came into the city of David, Michal, daughter of Saul, looked out the window. She saw King David leaping and dancing before Yahweh. Then she despised him in her heart.
17 Ary nampiditra ny fiaran’ i Jehovah ny olona ka nametraka azy teo amin’ ny fitoerany tao amin’ ny lay izay naorin’ i Davida hitoerany; ary Davida nanatitra fanatitra dorana sy fanati-pihavanana teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.
They brought in the ark of Yahweh and put it in its place, in the middle of the tent that David had set up for it. Then David offered burnt offerings and fellowship offerings before Yahweh.
18 Ary nony voatitr’ i Davida ny fanatitra dorana sy ny fanati-pihavanana, dia nitso-drano ny vahoaka tamin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, izy.
When David had finished sacrificing the burnt offerings and the fellowship offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh of hosts.
19 Dia nomeny mofo iray sy hena iray didy ary ampempam-boaloboka iray avy ny olona rehetra, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, na lahy na vavy. Ary dia samy nody tany an-tranony avy ny olona rehetra.
Then he distributed among all the people, the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, a loaf of bread, a portion of meat, and a cake of raisins. Then all the people left; each one returned to his own house.
20 Ary Davida koa mba nody hitso-drano ny ankohonany. Fa Mikala, zanakavavin’ i Saoly, nivoaka hitsena an’ i Davida ka nanao hoe: Akory ity voninahitry ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely androany! ilay nanary lamba anikeheo teo imason’ ny zanakavavin’ ny mpanompony, tahaka ny adala manary lamba ka tsy manan-kenatra.
Then David returned to bless his family. Michal, the daughter of Saul, came out to meet David and said, “How honored the king of Israel was today, who undressed himself today before the eyes of the slave girls among his servants, like one of the crude fellows who shamelessly undresses himself!”
21 Ary hoy kosa Davida tamin’ i Mikala: Teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, Izay nifidy ahy noho ny rainao sy ny ankohonany rehetra ka nanendry ahy ho mpanapaka ny Isiraely, olon’ i Jehovah, eny, teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah no nitsinjahako.
David responded to Michal, “I did that before Yahweh, who chose me above your father and above all his family, who appointed me leader over the people of Yahweh, over Israel. Before Yahweh I will be joyful!
22 Ary mbola hivazina kokoa noho izany aza aho, ka hataoko tsinontsinona ny tenako; nefa hiaraka hanam-boninahitra amin’ ireo tovovavy nantsoinao ireo kosa aho.
I will be even more undignified than this, and I will be humiliated in my own eyes. But by these slave girls you have spoken about, I will be honored.”
23 Ka dia tsy nanan-janaka intsony mandra-pahafatiny Mikala, zanakavavin’ i Saoly.
So Michal, the daughter of Saul, had no children to the day of her death.
