1 Whakapapa 13
1 Na ka runanga a Rawiri ki nga rangatira o nga mano, o nga rau, ara ki nga rangatira katoa.
And David consulted with the officers of the thousands and hundreds, and with every leader.
2 A i mea a Rawiri ki te whakaminenga katoa o Iharaira, Ki te pai koutou, a ka tika mai i to tatou Atua, i a Ihowa, me tuku tangata tatou ki ia wahi, ki ia wahi, ki o tatou teina kua mahue nei ki nga whenua katoa o Iharaira, ki a ratou ko nga tohun ga, ko nga Riwaiti, ki nga pa, ki nga wahi o waho ake o aua pa, kia huihui mai ratou ki a tatou;
And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, if it seem good unto you, and if it be of the Lord our God, let us send widely about unto our brethren who are left in all the lands of Israel, and with them unto the priests and Levites who are in their cities and open districts, that they may gather themselves together unto us.
3 A me whakahoki mai e tatou te aaka a to tatou Atua ki a tatou: kihai hoki tatou i rapu tikanga ki reira i nga ra o Haora.
And let us bring round the ark of our God to us; for we have inquired not at it in the days of Saul.
4 Na ka mea te whakaminenga katoa kia pera ano ratou; he tika hoki taua mea ki te titiro a te iwi katoa.
And all the congregation said that this should be done; for the king was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 Heoi ka huihuia e Rawiri a Iharaira katoa i Hihoro, i te awa o Ihipa a tae noa ki te haerenga atu ki Hamata, hei mau ake i te aaka a te Atua i Kiriata Tearimi.
So David assembled all Israel together, from Shichor of Egypt even unto the entrance of Chemath, to bring the ark of God from Kiryath-ye'arim.
6 Na ko te haerenga o Rawiri ratou ko Iharaira katoa ki Paaraha, ara ki Kiriata Tearimi o Hura, hei mau ake i reira i te aaka a te Atua, a Ihowa e noho nei i runga o nga kerupima, i huaina nei ki te Ingoa.
And David went up, with all Israel, to Ba'alah, [that is] to Kiryath-ye'arim, 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 Na ka mauria e ratou te aaka a te Atua i runga i te kata hou, a tangohia ana mai i te whare o Apinarapa: a na Uha raua ko Ahio i arahi te kata.
And they conveyed the ark of God in a new wagon out of the house of Abinadab: and 'Uzza and Achyo guided the wagon.
8 Na ka whakapaua te kaha e Rawiri ratou ko Iharaira katoa ki te takaro ki te aroaro o te Atua; he waiata ano ta ratou, he hapa, he timipera, he himipora, he tetere.
And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and on harps, and on psalteries, and on tambourines, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
9 A, ka tae ki te patunga witi a Hirono, ka totoro te ringa o Uha ki te pupuri i te aaka; i tapatupatu hoki nga kau.
And when they came as far as the threshing-floor of Kidon, 'Uzza put forth his hand to take hold of the ark; for the oxen shook it.
10 Na ka mura te riri o Ihowa ki a Uha, patua iho mo tona ringa i totoro ki te aaka; a mate iho ia i reira i te aroaro o te Atua.
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against 'Uzza, and he smote him, because he had put forth his hand toward the ark: and he died there before God.
11 Na ka puri a Rawiri mo te toreretanga i torere ai a Ihowa ki a Uha. Na huaina ana e ia taua wahi ko Pereteuha: e mau nei ano a taea noatia tenei ra.
And it was grievious to David, because the Lord had suddenly taken away 'Uzza; and he called that place Perez-'uzza [[Breach of 'Uzza]] until this day.
12 Na ka wehi a Rawiri i a Ihowa i taua ra, a ka mea ia, Me pehea taku kawe mai i te aaka a Ihowa ki ahau ki toku whare?
And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring home to me the ark of God?
13 Heoi kihai a Rawiri i tango i te aaka ki a ia, ki te pa o Rawiri; i kawea ketia e ia ki te whare o Opereeroma Kiti.
So David removed not the ark unto himself into the city of David, but had it carried round into the house of 'Obed-edom the Gittite.
14 Na noho ana te aaka a te Atua ki te whanau a Opereeroma, ki tona whare hoki, e toru nga marama. A ka manaakitia e Ihowa te whare o Opereeroma me ana mea katoa.
And the ark of God remained in the house of 'Obed-edom, in his house, three months. And the Lord blessed the house of 'Obed-edom, and all that belonged to him.
