१ इतिहास 15
1 दाऊदले आफ्नो निम्ति दाऊदको सहरमा भवनहरू बनाए । तिनले परमेश्वरका सन्दूकको निम्ति एउटा ठाउँ तयार गरे र त्यसको लागि एउटा पाल टाँगे ।
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 तब दाऊदले भने, “परमेश्वरको सन्दूक लेवीहरूले मात्र बोकून, किनकि परमप्रभुको सन्दूक बोक्न र सदासर्वदा उहाँको सेवा गर्न परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई नै चुन्नुभएको थियो ।”
Then David said, "No one ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites. For the LORD has chosen them to carry the ark of God, and to minister to him forever."
3 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुको सन्दूकलाई त्यसको निम्ति तयार गरिएको ठाउँमा ल्याउनलाई दाऊदले सारा इस्राएललाई यरूशलेममा भेला गराए ।
David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD to its place, which he had prepared for it.
4 दाऊदले हारूनका सन्तानहरू र लेवीहरूलाई एकसाथ भेला गराए ।
David gathered together the sons of Aaron, and the Levites:
5 कहातका सन्तानबाट मुखिया उरीएल र तिनका आफन्तहरू १२० जना थिए ।
of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, and his brothers one hundred twenty;
6 मरारीका सन्तानबाट मुखिया असायाह र तिनका आफन्तहरू २२० जना थिए ।
of the sons of Merari, Asaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred twenty;
7 गेर्शोनका सन्तानबाट मुखिया योएल र तिनका आफन्तहरू १३० जना थिए ।
of the sons of Gershom, Joel the chief, and his brothers one hundred thirty;
8 एलीजापानका सन्तानबाट मुखिया शमायाह र तिनका आफन्तहरू २०० जना थिए ।
of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred;
9 हेब्रोनका सन्तानबाट एलीएल मुखिया र तिनका आफन्तहरू ८० जना थिए ।
of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brothers eighty;
10 उज्जीएलका सन्तानबाट मुखिया अम्मीनादाब र तिनका आफन्तहरू ११२ जना थिए ।
of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brothers one hundred twelve.
11 दाऊदले सादोक र अबियाथार पुजारीहरू, अनि लेवी उरीएल, असायाह, योएल, शमायाह, एलीएल र अम्मीनादाबलाई बोलाए ।
David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,
12 तिनले उनीहरूलाई भने, “तिमीहरू लेवीहरूका परिवारका मुखियाहरू हौ । तिमीहरू र तिमीहरूका दाजुभाइले आफूलाई पवित्र गर, ताकि परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सन्दूक राख्न मैले तयार पारेको ठाउँमा तिमीहरूले त्यसलाई ल्याउन सक्छौ ।
and said to them, "You are the heads of the ancestral houses of the Levites. Sanctify yourselves, both you and your brothers, that you may bring up the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel, to the place that I have prepared for it.
13 तिमीहरूले यसलाई पहिलो पल्ट बोकेनौ । यसैले परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर हामीमाथि क्रोधित हुनुभयो, किनकि हामीले उहाँको खोजी गरेनौं वा उहाँको आज्ञा पालन गरेनौं ।”
For because you were not prepared the first time, the LORD our God made an outbreak against us, because we did not seek him according to the ordinance."
14 यसैले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्वरको सन्दूकलाई तिनीहरूले ल्याउन सकून् भनेर पुजारीहरू र लेवीहरूले आफैलाई पवित्र गरे ।
So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel.
15 यसैले परमप्रभुको वचनको अनुरण गरेर मोशाले आज्ञा दिएझैं लेवीहरूले परमेश्वरको सन्दूकलाई आ-आफ्ना काँधमा डन्डाले बोकेर ल्याए ।
The descendants of the Levites bore the ark of God on their shoulders with the poles thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of the LORD.
16 लेवीहरूका मुखियाहरूले आ-आफ्ना दाजुभाइलाई बाजा, सारङ्गी, वीणा र झ्यालीको साथ ठुलो स्वरमा र आफ्ना स्वरहरू उचालेर आनन्दका साथ सङ्गीत बजाउनको निम्ति नियुक्त गरून् भनी दाऊदले हुकुम दिए ।
David spoke to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brothers the singers, with instruments of music, stringed instruments and harps and cymbals, sounding aloud and lifting up the voice with joy.
17 यसैले लेवीहरूले योएलका छोरा हेमान, र तिनका दाजुभाइमध्ये बेरेक्याहका छोरा आसापलाई नियुक्त गरे । तिनीहरूले मरारीहरूको सन्तानका आफन्त कूशायाहका छोरा एतानलाई पनि नियुक्त गरे ।
So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brothers, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brothers, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;
18 तिनीहरूसँगै दोस्रो दर्जाका आफन्तहरू थिएः जकरिया, याजीएल, शमीरामोत, यहीएल, उन्नी, एलीआब, बनायाह, मासेयाह, मत्तित्याह, एलीपलेहू, मिक्नेयाह, अनि ढोकाका सुरक्षा गार्डहरू ओबेद-एदोम र यीएल ।
and with them their brothers of the second degree, Zechariah, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah were doorkeepers.
19 सङ्गीतकार हेमान, आसाप र एतानलाई ठुलो आवाज निकाल्ने काँसका झ्यालीहरू बजाउन नियुक्त गरियो ।
So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were given cymbals of bronze to sound aloud;
20 जकरिया, अजीएल, शमीरामोत, यहीएल, उन्नी, एलीआब, मासेयाह र बनायाहले सारङ्गीमा अलामोत राग बजाए ।
and Zechariah, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with stringed instruments set to Alamoth;
21 मत्तित्याह, एलीपलेहू, मिक्नेयाह, ओबेद-एदोम, यीएल र अजज्याहले वीणामा शिमिनिथ राग बजाएर बाटोमा अगि लागे ।
and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps tuned to the eight-stringed lyre, to lead.
22 लेवीहरूका अगुवा कनन्याह सङ्गीतका निर्देशक थिए, किनकि तिनी सङ्गीत गुरु थिए ।
Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was over the song: he instructed about the song, because he was skillful.
23 बेरेक्याह र एल्काना सन्दूकका गार्डहरू थिए ।
Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.
24 शबन्याह, योशापात, नतनेल, अमासै, जकरिया, बनायाह र एलीएजर पुजारीहरूले परमेश्वरका सन्दूकको अगि तुरही बजाउनुपर्थ्यो । ओबेद-एदोम र येहियाह पनि सन्दूकका गार्डहरू थिए ।
Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethanel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, blew the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obed-Edom and Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark.
25 यसैले दाऊद र इस्राएलका धर्म-गुरुहरू र हजार-हजारका फौजका कमाण्डरहरू ओबेद-एदोमको घरबाट परमप्रभुका करारको सन्दूक ल्याउनलाई रमाउँदै गए ।
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 परमप्रभुका करारको सन्दूक बोक्ने लेवीहरूलाई परमेश्वरले सहायता गर्नुभएको हुनाले तिनीहरूले सात वटा साँढे र सात वटा भेडा बलिदान चढाए ।
It happened, when God helped the Levites who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD, that they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.
27 सन्दूक बोक्ने लेवीहरू, गायकहरू र गायकका मुखिया कनन्याहले जस्तै दाऊदले पनि असल मलमलका लुगा लाएका थिए । दाऊदले मलमलको एपोद लाएका थिए ।
David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites who bore the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song with the singers: and David had on him an ephod of linen.
28 यसरी सबै इस्राएलले आनन्दले कराउँदै सीङ र तुरहीहरूका आवाजमा र झ्याली, सारङ्गी र वीणा बजाउँदै परमप्रभुका करारको सन्दूक ल्याए ।
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 stringed instruments and harps.
29 तर जब परमप्रभुका करारको सन्दूक दाऊदको सहरमा ल्याइयो, शाऊलकी छोरी मीकलले झ्यालबाट बाहिर हेरिन् । उनले दाऊद राजालाई नाच्दै र उत्सव मनाउँदै गरेका देखिन् । तब उनले आफ्नो मनमा तिनलाई तुच्छ ठानिन् ।
It happened, as the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the City of David, that Mikal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.
