< २ शमूएल 6 >

1 दाऊदले फेरि पनि इस्राएलका चुनिएका सबै तिस हजार मानिसलाई एकसाथ भेला पारे ।
And David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 दाऊद उठे र यहूदाको बालाबाट पमरप्रभुको सन्दुक ल्याउनलाई आफूसँग भएका सबै मानिसलाई साथमा लिएर गए, जसलाई सर्वशकक्‍तिमान् परमप्रभुको नाउँद्वारा पुकारा गरिन्‍छ जो करूबहरूमाथि विराजमान हुनुहुन्छ ।
And David arose, and went with all the people who were with him to Baalah, that is, Kiriath Jearim of Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called there by the name of the LORD enthroned on the cherubim.
3 तिनीहरूले परमप्रभुको सन्दुकलाई एउटा नयाँ गाडामा राखे । तिनीहरूले यसलाई अबीनादाबको घरबाट बाहिर ल्याए, जुन डाँडामाथि थियो । तिनका छोराहरू उज्‍जाह र अहियोले त्‍यो नयाँ गाडालाई ठेल्‍दै थिए ।
And they set the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was on the hill. And Uzza and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, guided the cart
4 तिनीहरूले परमेश्‍वरको सन्दुकसहितको गाडालाई डाँडामा भएको अबीनादाको घरबाट बाहिर ल्याए । अहियो सन्दुकको अगिअगि हिंडिरहेका थिए ।
with the ark; and Ahio was walking in front of the ark.
5 तब दाऊद र इस्राएलका सबै घरानाले परमप्रभुको सामु काठका साधनहरू, वीणा, सारङ्गी, खैंजडीहरू, मृदङ्ग र झ्यालीहरू बजाउँदै उत्सव मनाउन थाले ।
And David and the children of Israel played before the LORD with all their strength and with songs, and with harps, and with stringed instruments, and with tambourines, and with castanets, and with cymbals.
6 जब तिनीहरू नाकोनको खलामा आइपुगे, तब गोरुहरूले ठेस खाए, र उज्‍जाहले परमेश्‍वरको सन्दुक समात्‍नलाई आफ्‍नो हात पसारे र तिनले त्‍यो समाते ।
And when they came to the threshing floor of Nodan, Uzza reached out his hand to the ark of God, to steady it; for the oxen stumbled.
7 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुको रिस उज्‍जाहको विरुद्ध दन्कियो । तिनको पापको कारणले परमेश्‍वरले तिनलाई त्यहाँ आक्रमण गर्नुभयो । उज्‍जाह त्यहाँ नै परमेश्‍वरको सन्दुकनेर मरे ।
And the LORD became angry at Uzza; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died before God.
8 दाऊद रिसाए, किनभने परमप्रभुले उज्‍जाहलाई आक्रमण गर्नुभएको थियो र तिनले त्यस ठाउँलाई फारेस-उज्‍जाह भने । त्यस ठाउँलाई आज पनि फारेस-उज्‍जाह नै भनिन्छ ।
And David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth on Uzza; and he called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
9 दाऊद त्यस दिन परमप्रभुसँग डराएका थिए । तिनले भने, “परमप्रभुको सन्दुक मकहाँ कसरी आउन सक्छ?”
And David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, "How can the ark of God come to me?" Now the ark of the LORD arrived,
10 त्यसैले दाऊदले परमप्रभुको सन्दुकलाई दाऊदको सहरमा लान तत्पर भएनन् । बरु, तिनले यसलाई गित्ती ओबेद-एदोमको घरमा राखे ।
but David was not willing to move the ark of the LORD with him to the City of David; so David diverted it to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
11 पमरप्रभुको सन्दुक गित्ती ओबेद-एदोमको घरमा तीन महिनासम्म रह्यो । त्यसैले परमप्रभुले तिनलाई र तिनका सबै घरानालाई आशिष् दिनुभयो ।
And the ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months, and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
12 अब दाऊद राजालाई भनियो, “परमेश्‍वरको सन्दुकको कारणले परमप्रभुले एदोमको घर र तिनीसँग भएका हरेक कुरामा आशिष् दिनुभएको छ ।” त्यसैले दाऊद गए र तिनले परमेश्‍वरको सन्दुकलाई एदोमको घरबाट दाऊदको सहरमा आनन्द साथ ल्याए ।
And it was told king David, saying, "The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him because of the ark of God." And David said, "I will bring back the blessing to my house." And David went and brought up the ark of the LORD from the house of Obed-Edom into the City of David with joy.
13 जब परमप्रभुको सन्दुक बोक्‍नेहरू छ कदम अगि बढ्‍थे, तब तिनले एउटा साँढे र एउटा पोसेको बाछो बलि चढाउँथे ।
And it was so, that, when those who bore the ark had gone six steps, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 पमरप्रभुको सामु आफ्‍नो सारा शक्ति लगाएर दाऊद नाचे । तिनले सूतीको एपोद मात्र लगाएका थिए ।
And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and he was clothed in a linen ephod.
15 यसरी दाऊद र इस्राएलका सबै घरानाले परमप्रभुको सन्दुक रमाहट गर्दै र तुरही बजाउँदै लिएर आए ।
And David and all Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 अब जब परमप्रभुको सन्दुक दाऊदको सहरमा आयो, तब शाऊलकी छोरी मीकलले झ्यालबाट बाहिर हेरिन् । परमप्रभुको सामु दाऊद राजा उफ्रँदै र नाँच्दै गरेको तिनले देखिन् । तब आफ्‍नो हृदयमा तिनले उनलाई घृणा गरिन् ।
Now, as the ark entered the City of David, Mikal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.
17 तिनीहरू परमप्रभुको सन्दुक ल्याए र त्‍यसको निम्‍ति दाऊदले तयार पारेका बिचको पालमा त्‍यसको आफ्नै ठाउँमा त्‍यो राखे । तब दाऊदले परमप्रभुको सामु होमबलि र मेलबलिहरू चढाए ।
And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had set up for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
18 जब दाऊदले होमबलि र मेलबलिहरू चढाएर सिद्ध्याए, तिनले मानिसहरूलाई सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभुको नाउँमा आशिष् दिए ।
And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.
19 त्यसपछि तिनले सबै मानिसका माझमा, सम्पूर्ण इस्राएलको भिडलाई पुरुष र महिला दुवैलाई एउटा रोटी, एक डल्लो खजूर र एक झुप्पा किसमिस बाँडिदिए । अनि सबै मानिस विदा भए । प्रत्‍येक व्‍यक्‍ति उसको आफ्‍नै घरमा फर्कियो ।
And he gave to all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to everyone a portion of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. So all the people departed everyone to his house.
20 त्यसपछि दाऊद आफ्‍नो परिवारलाई आशिष् दिन फर्केर गए । शऊलकी छोरी मीकल दाऊदलाई भेट्न आइन् र भनिन्, “इस्राएलको राजाको आज कति ठुलो इज्‍जत भएको, जसले आफ्नो सेविकाहरू र सेवकहरूको माझ निर्लज्‍ज रूपमा आफूलाई निवर्वस्‍त्र पार्ने कुपात्रले झैं आफैलाई निर्वस्‍त्र तुल्याए ।”
And then David returned to bless his household. Mikal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David. And she greeted him, and said, "How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of the servants of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself."
21 दाऊदले मीकललाई जवाफ दिए, “त्यो मैले परमप्रभुको सामु गरें, जसले मलाई तिम्रा बुबा र तिनका सबै परिवारमाथि चुन्‍नुभयो, जसले मलाई परमप्रभुका मानिसहरू इस्राएलमाथि अगुवा चुन्‍नुभयो । परमप्रभुको सामु म आनन्दित हुने छु ।
And David said to Mikal, "I was dancing before the LORD. Blessed be the LORD, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over his people Israel; therefore I will celebrate before the LORD.
22 म योभन्दा अझ धेरै अप्रतिष्ठित हुने छु र म मेरै आँखामा अपमानिस हुने छु । तर तिमीले भनेकी यी सेविकाहरूद्वारा नै मेरो इज्‍जत गरिने छ ।”
And I will be yet more vile than this, and will be lowly in your eyes. But of the servants of whom you have spoken, they shall honor me."
23 त्यसैले शाऊलकी छोरी मीकलको मृत्युको दिनसम्म पनि कुनै सन्तान भएन ।
And Mikal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
