1 Tantara 13
1 Aa le nisafiry amo mpifelek’ arivo naho zatoo vaho amo mpifehe iabio t’i Davide.
David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, even with every leader.
2 Le hoe t’i Davide amy valobohò’ Israele iabiy, Aa naho mete ama’ areo naho am’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika, antao hañitrike mb’eo mb’eo hikoike o longontika sisa amo hene tane’ Israeleo, rekets’ o mpisoroñe naho nte-Levý androva naho am-paripari’ iareoo, hifanontoñe,
David said to all the assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if it is of the LORD our God, let’s send word everywhere to our brothers who are left in all the land of Israel, with whom the priests and Levites are in their cities that have pasture lands, that they may gather themselves to us.
3 hampolian-tika mb’etoa i vatan’ Añaharen-tikañey, ie tsy nipaiaen-tika tañ’ andro’ i Saole.
Also, let’s bring the ark of our God back to us again, for we didn’t seek it in the days of Saul.”
4 Le nanao ty hoe i valobohòkey, t’ie hanoeñe, fa nimete am-pihaino’ ze hene ondaty.
All the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 Aa le natonto’ i Davide t’Israele iaby, boake Sikore e Mitsraime añe pak’ am-pimoahañe e Kamate añe, hindesa’ iareo boake Kiriate-Iearime ao i vatan’ Añaharey.
So David assembled all Israel together, from the Shihor River of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, to bring God’s ark from Kiriath Jearim.
6 Aa le nindre am’ Israele iaby t’i Davide nionjomb’e Baalà—i Kiriate-Iearime’ Iehoda—mb’eo hindesa’ iareo boak’ao i vatan’ Añahare iambesara’ Iehovà amo kerobeoy, i fikanjiañe i tahina’eiy.
David went up with all Israel to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath Jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there God the LORD’s ark that sits above the cherubim, that is called by the Name.
7 Le nente’ iareo an-tsarete vao boak’ añ’ anjomba’ Abinadabe ao i vatan’ Añaharey; vaho ninday i saretey t’i Ozà naho i Akio.
They carried God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house; and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
8 Le nifale añatrefan’ Añahare an-kaliforan-kaozarañe t’i Davide naho Israele; reke-tsabo naho marovany, jejobory, fikorintsañe, fikarantsañe vaho an-trompetra.
David and all Israel played before God with all their might, even with songs, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with cymbals, and with trumpets.
9 Ie nivotrak’ an-tanem-pifofoha’ i Kidone eo, le nahiti’ i Ozà ty fità’e hikalañ’ i vatay, fa ho nabalitaboa’ o añombeio.
When they came to Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled.
10 Le nisolebotse amy Ozà ty haviñera’ Iehovà naho zinevo’e amy te nitakare’e fitàñe i vatay vaho nihomak’ añatrefan’ Añahare.
The LORD’s anger burnt against Uzza, and he struck him because he put his hand on the ark; and he died there before God.
11 Tsy nahafale i Davide ty fitorotosi’ Iehovà amy Ozày; aa le natao Perets’ Ozà i toetsey pak’ henaneo.
David was displeased, because the LORD had broken out against Uzza. He called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
12 Nahahembañe i Davide t’i Andrianañahare amy andro zay, le hoe re: Akore ty hampipoliako amako i vatan’ Añaharey?
David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring God’s ark home to me?”
13 Aa le tsy nendese’ i Davide moly ama’e mb’an-drova’ i Davide mb’eo i vatay fa nampitsile’e mb’ añ’anjomba’ i Ovededome nte Gate ao.
So David didn’t move the ark with him into David’s city, but carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
14 Nitobok’ an-kasavereña’ i Ovededome añ’ anjomba’e ao telo volañe i vatan’ Añaharey; vaho nitahie’ Iehovà ty anjomba’ i Ovededome naho ze hene fanaña’e.
God’s ark remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months; and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom’s house and all that he had.
