2 USamuyeli 6
1 UDavida wabuya wabuthanisa bonke abakhethiweyo koIsrayeli, inkulungwane ezingamatshumi amathathu.
Againe Dauid gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, euen thirtie thousand,
2 UDavida wasesukuma wahamba labo bonke abantu ababelaye, besuka eBahala-Juda ukuze benyuse umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu usuka lapho, obizo lawo libizwa ngebizo leNkosi yamabandla, ehlala phakathi kwamakherubhi phezu kwawo.
And Dauid arose and went with all the people that were with him from Baale of Iudah to bring vp from thence the Arke of God, whose name is called by the Name of the Lord, of hostes, that dwelleth vpon it betweene the Cherubims.
3 Basebewukhweza umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu enqoleni entsha, bewukhupha endlini kaAbinadaba eyayiseqaqeni; njalo uUza loAhiyo amadodana kaAbinadaba batshayela leyonqola entsha.
And they put the Arke of God vpon a newe cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was in Gibeah. And Vzzah and Ahio the sonnes of Abinadab did driue the newe carte.
4 Bayikhipha-ke endlini kaAbinadaba eyayiseqaqeni kanye lomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu, njalo uAhiyo ehamba phambi komtshokotsho.
And when they brought the Arke of God out of the house of Abinadab, that was at Gibeah, Ahio went before the Arke,
5 UDavida lendlu yonke yakoIsrayeli basebetshaya phambi kweNkosi ngazo zonke izinto zokutshaya zesihlahla sefiri, langamachacho, langezigubhu zezintambo, langezigujana, langamahlwayi, langezinsimbi ezincencethayo.
And Dauid and al the house of Israel played before the Lord on all instruments made of firre, and on harpes, and on Psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals.
6 Bathi befika esizeni sikaNakoni, uUza welulelaisandla sakhe emtshokotshweni kaNkulunkulu, wawubamba, ngoba inkabi zakhubeka.
And when they came to Nachons threshing floore, Vzzah put his hande to the Arke of God, and helde it: for the oxen did shake it.
7 Intukuthelo yeNkosi yasimvuthela uUza; uNkulunkulu wamtshaya khonapho ngenxa yalesisiphambeko; wasefela khonapho phansi komtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu.
And the Lord was verie wroth with Vzzah, and God smote him in the same place for his fault, and there he dyed by the Arke of God.
8 UDavida wasethukuthela ngoba iNkosi imfohlele uUza ngesikhala; waseyibiza leyondawo ngokuthi yiPerezi-Uza, kuze kube lamuhla.
And Dauid was displeased, because the Lord had smitten Vzzah: and he called the name of the place Perez Vzzah vntill this day.
9 UDavida waseyesaba iNkosi ngalolosuku, wathi: Umtshokotsho weNkosi uzakuza njani kimi?
Therefore Dauid that day feared the Lord, and sayd, How shall the Arke of the Lord come to mee?
10 Ngakho uDavida kavumanga ukuwudlulisela kuye umtshokotsho weNkosi emzini kaDavida; kodwa uDavida wawuphambulela endlini kaObedi-Edoma umGithi.
So Dauid would not bring the Arke of the Lord vnto him into the citie of Dauid, but Dauid caried it into ye house of Obed-edom a Gittite.
11 Umtshokotsho weNkosi wasuhlala endlini kaObedi-Edoma umGithi inyanga ezintathu. INkosi yasimbusisa uObedi-Edoma lendlu yakhe yonke.
And the Arke of the Lord continued in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite, three moneths, and the Lord blessed Obed-edom, and all his houshold.
12 Kwasekubikelwa inkosi uDavida kwathiwa: INkosi ibusisile indlu kaObedi-Edoma lakho konke okwakhe ngenxa yomtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu. Ngakho uDavida wasehamba wenyusa umtshokotsho kaNkulunkulu ewususa endlini kaObedi-Edoma, ewusa emzini kaDavida ngentokozo.
And one told King Dauid, saying, The Lord hath blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that hee hath, because of the Arke of God: therefore Dauid went and brought the Arke of God from the house of Obed-edom, into the citie of Dauid with gladnesse.
13 Kwasekusithi lapho labo abathwele umtshokotsho weNkosi sebehambe izinyathelo eziyisithupha, wahlaba inkabi lokunonisiweyo.
And when they that bare the Arke of the Lord had gone sixe paces, he offred an oxe, and a fatte beast.
14 UDavida wasegida ngamandla wonke phambi kweNkosi; uDavida wayebhince i-efodi yelembu elicolekileyo.
And Dauid danced before the Lord with al his might, and was girded with a linnen Ephod.
15 Ngokunjalo uDavida lendlu yonke yakoIsrayeli bawenyusa umtshokotsho weNkosi ngokumemeza langokukhala kophondo.
So Dauid and all the house of Israel, brought the Arke of the Lord with shouting, and sound of trumpet.
16 Kwasekusithi lapho umtshokotsho weNkosi ungena emzini kaDavida, uMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli walunguza ngewindi, wabona inkosi uDavida eseqa egida phambi kweNkosi; wameyisa enhliziyweni yakhe.
And as the Arke of the Lord came into the citie of Dauid, Michal Sauls daughter looked through a windowe, and sawe King Dauid leape, and dance before the Lord, and shee despised him in her heart.
17 Basebewungenisa umtshokotsho weNkosi, bawubeka endaweni yawo phakathi kwethente uDavida ayelimisele wona; uDavida wasenikela iminikelo yokutshiswa phambi kweNkosi leminikelo yokuthula.
And when they had brought in the Arke of the Lord, they set it in his place, in the mids of the tabernacle that Dauid had pitched for it: then Dauid offred burnt offrings, and peace offrings before the Lord.
18 Kwathi uDavida eseqedile ukunikela iminikelo yokutshiswa leminikelo yokuthula, wabusisa abantu ebizweni leNkosi yamabandla.
And assoone as Dauid had made an ende of offring burnt offrings and peace offrings, hee blessed the people in the Name of the Lord of hostes,
19 Wababela bonke abantu, ixuku lonke lakoIsrayeli, kusukela kwabesilisa kusiya kwabesifazana, ngulowo lalowo iqebelengwana lesinkwa, leqatha lenyama, lesinkwa sezithelo zevini ezonyisiweyo. Basebehamba abantu bonke, ngulowo lalowo emzini wakhe.
And gaue among all the people, euen among the whole multitude of Israel, aswel to the women as men, to euerie one a cake of bread, and a piece of flesh, and a bottell of wine: so all the people departed euerie one to his house.
20 UDavida wasebuyela ukubusisa indlu yakhe. UMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli wasephuma ukuhlangabeza uDavida, wathi: Idunyiswe kangakanani inkosi yakoIsrayeli lamuhla, ezembule lamuhla phambi kwamehlo encekukazi zenceku zayo njengomunye wabayize ezembula lokuzembula!
The Dauid returned to blesse his house, and Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meete Dauid, and sayde, O howe glorious was the King of Israel this day, which was vncouered to day in the eyes of the maidens of his seruantes, as a foole vncouereth himselfe.
21 UDavida wasesithi kuMikhali: Ngaphambi kweNkosi, eyangikhetha phambi kukayihlo laphambi kwendlu yakhe yonke, yangimisa ukuthi ngibe ngumbusi phezu kwabantu beNkosi, phezu kukaIsrayeli; ngakho ngizadlala phambi kweNkosi.
Then Dauid sayd vnto Michal, It was before the Lord, which chose me rather then thy father, and all his house, and commanded me to bee ruler ouer the people of the Lord, euen ouer Israel: and therefore will I play before the Lord,
22 Ngisazadeleleka-ke kakhulu kulalokhu, ngehliselwe phansi emehlweni ami; kodwa ngezincekukazi okhulume ngazo, ngizadunyiswa yizo.
And will yet be more vile then thus, and will be low in mine owne sight, and of the verie same maidseruants, which thou hast spoken of, shall I be had in honour.
23 Njalo uMikhali indodakazi kaSawuli kabanga lamntwana kwaze kwaba lusuku lokufa kwakhe.
Therfore Michal the daughter of Saul had no childe vnto the day of her death.
