1 Tantara 15
1 Namboatse anjomba ho am-bata’e an-drova’ i Davide ao t’i Davide, le nañajaria’e toetse i vatan’ Añaharey vaho nañoreña’e kivoho.
And [David] made him houses in the city of David; and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.
2 Le hoe t’i Davide: Tsy eo ty hinday i vatan’ Añaharey naho tsy o nte-Levio avao; amy t’ie ty jinobo’ Iehovà hitarazo i vatan’ Añaharey naho ty hitoroñe Aze nainai’e.
Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them hath the LORD chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister unto him for ever.
3 Natonto’ i Davide e Ierosalaime ao t’Israele iaby, haneseañe ty vata’ Iehovà mb’ an-toe’e nihajarie’e ho aze.
And David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD unto its place, which he had prepared for it.
4 Le navori’ i Davide o ana’ i Aharoneo naho o nte-Levio;
And David gathered together the sons of Aaron, and the Levites:
5 amo ana’ i Kehàteo: i Oriele ty talè naho o rahalahi’eo, zato tsy roapolo;
of the sons of Kohath; Uriel the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twenty:
6 amo ana’ i Merario: i Asaià ty talè naho o rahalahi’eo: roanjato-tsi-roapolo;
of the sons of Merari; Asaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty:
7 amo ana’ i Gersomeo: Ioele ty talè’e naho o rahalahi’eo; zato-tsi-telopolo;
of the sons of Gershom; Joel the chief, and his brethren an hundred and thirty:
8 amo ana’ i Elitsafaneo; i Semaià ty talè naho o rahalahi’eo, roanjato;
of the sons of Elizaphan; Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred:
9 amo ana’ i Kebroneo; i Eliele ty talè naho valopolo o rahalahi’eo;
of the sons of Hebron; Eliel the chief, and his brethren fourscore:
10 amo ana’ i Ozieleo; i Aminadabe ty talè naho zato-tsi-folo-ro’ amby o rahalahi’eo.
of the sons of Uzziel; Amminadab the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twelve.
11 Kinanji’ i Davide amy zao t’i Tsadoke naho i Abiatare mpisoroñe naho amo nte-Levio, i Oriele naho i Asaià naho Ioele naho i Semaià naho i Eliele vaho i Aminadabe,
And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,
12 le nanoa’e ty hoe: Inahareo ro talèn’ anjomban-droae nte-Levio; mañamasiña vatañe, ie naho o longo’ areoo, hanesea’ areo mb’etoy i vata’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeley, mb’amy nihajariakoy.
and said unto them, Ye are the heads of the fathers’ [houses] of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, both ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel, unto [the place] that I have prepared for it.
13 Ie tsy nendesa’ areo am-baloha’ey ty nitosira’ Iehovà Andrianañahare aman-tika, amy te tsy nihalalian-tika i fañè zay.
For because ye [bare it] not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not according to the ordinance.
14 Aa le nañefe-batañe o mpisoroñeo naho o nte-Levio, hampionjoñe i vata’ Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israeley.
So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel.
15 Aa le nitarazoe’ o ana’ i Levio an-tsoroke am-boda’e i vatan’ Añaharey, amy nandilia’ i Mosè ty amy tsara’ Iehovàiy.
And the children of the Levites bare the ark of God upon their shoulders with the staves thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of the LORD.
16 Le nisaontsy amy mpiaolo’ o nte-Levio t’i Davide hijoboña’e amo rahalahi’eo o mpisaboo, reke-pititihañe ara-tsabo, am-pipoñafeñe jejo-bory naho marovany naho fikarantsañe vaho ionjonam-peo an-drebeke.
And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren the singers, with instruments of music, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding aloud and lifting up the voice with joy.
17 Aa le jinobo’ o nte-Levio t’i Hemane ana’ Ioele; naho o rahalahi’eo, i Asafe, ana’ i Berekia; naho o ana’ i Merario, i Etane ana’ i Kosaià;
So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brethren, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;
18 naho o rahalahi’e amy saranga faharoeio: i Zekarià, i Bene naho Iaaziele naho i Semiramote naho Iekiele naho i Oný, i Eliabe naho i Benaià naho i Maaseià naho i Matitià naho i Elifeleho vaho i Mikneià naho i Ovededome naho Ieiele, songa mpiamben-dalambey.
and with them their brethren of the second degree, Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, the doorkeepers.
19 Tinendre hampikorintseñe o katsàñe torisikeo t’i Hemane naho i Asafe vaho i Etane, mpisabo;
So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, [were appointed], with cymbals of brass to sound aloud;
20 le songa an-jejobory, am-peo abo t’i Zekarià naho i Aziele naho i Semiramote naho Iehiele naho i Oný naho Eliabe naho i Maaseià vaho i Benaià.
and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries set to Alamoth;
21 Le an-tali-valo hitarihañe o feo ambaneo t’i Matitià naho i Elifeleho naho i Mikneià naho i Ovededome naho Ieiele vaho i Azazià.
and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps set to the Sheminith, to lead.
22 Natao mpañoniñe t’i Kenanià, talè’ o nte-Levio, amy hilala’e onin-tsaboy, toe nahihitse.
And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was over the song: he instructed about the song, because he was skilful.
23 Nimpitan-dala’ i vatay t’i Berekià naho i Elkanà.
And Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.
24 I Sebanià naho Iehosafate naho i Netanele naho i Amasay naho i Zekarià naho i Benaià naho i Eliezere, mpisoroñe, songa nampipopò trompetra aolo’ i vatan’ Añaharey; vaho nimpitan-dala’ i vatay t’i Ovededome naho Iekià.
And Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethanel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, did blow with the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obed-edom and Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark.
25 Aa le nimb’eo t’i Davide naho o roandria’ Israeleo naho o mpifelek’ arivoo, hampionjona’ iereo mb’eo i vatam-pañina’Iehovày boak’ añ’anjomba’ i Ovededome ao an-drebeke.
So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the house of Obed-edom with joy:
26 Ie amy zao, kanao nañolotse o nte-Levy nitarazo i vatam-pañina’ Iehovàio t’i Andrianañahare, le nisoroñañe bania fito naho añondrilahy fito.
And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, that they sacrificed seven bullocks and seven rams.
27 Nisaroñe leny mireparepa t’i Davide naho o nte-Levy nitarazo i vataio naho o mpisaboo vaho i Kenanià talè’ o mpisabo amo oniñeoo; le nampiombeañe kitambe leny t’i Davide.
And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that bare the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song [with] the singers: and David had upon him an ephod of linen.
28 Aa le songa nampionjoñe i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày am-pazake t’Israele, am-pitiofañe tsifa naho am-pipopòn-trompetra naho am-pikarantsañe naho am-pipoñafam-peo reke-jejobory naho marovany.
Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the LORD with shouting, and with sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding aloud with psalteries and harps.
29 Ie nimoak’ an-drova’ i Davide ao i vatam-pañina’ Iehovày, le nitilihitse an-dalan-kede t’i Mikale ana’ i Saole nahaisake i Davide nitsinjake naho niankahake ey vaho nitorifiha’e an-trok’ ao.
And it came to pass, as the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.
