1 Seenaa 13

1 Daawit ajajjoota isaa hunda ajajjoota kumaatii fi ajajjoota dhibbaa wajjin ni mariʼate.

And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds, [and] with every leader.

2 Ergasii inni yaaʼii Israaʼel guutuudhaan akkana jedhe; “Yoo wanni kun waan gaarii isinitti fakkaatee fi yoo fedhii Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaa taʼe, kottaa mee akka isaan dhufanii nutti dabalamaniif obboloota keenya kanneen guutummaa biyya Israaʼel keessatti hafanitti akkasumas lubootaa fi Lewwota isaan wajjin magaalaawwanii fi lafa dheeda isaanii keessa jiraatanitti ergaa haa erginu.

And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, If [it seem] good unto you, and [that it be] of the LORD our God, let us send abroad unto our brethren every where, [that are] left in all the land of Israel, and with them [also] to the priests and Levites [which are] in their cities [and] suburbs, that they may gather themselves unto us:

3 Taabota Waaqa keenyaa deebifnee haa fidannu; nu bara mootummaa Saaʼol keessa isa hin barbaaneetii.”

And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we enquired not at it in the days of Saul.

4 Sababii wanni kun saba hundatti waan qajeelaa fakkaateef guutummaan yaaʼii sanaa waan kana gochuudhaaf walii gale.

And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

5 Kanaafuu Daawit taabota Waaqaa Kiriyaati Yeʼaariimii fiduudhaaf Israaʼeloota Laga Shihoorii kan biyya Gibxiitti argamuu jalqabee hamma karra Hamaatiitti jiran hunda walitti qabe.

So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath-jearim.

6 Daawitii fi Israaʼeloonni isa wajjin turan hundi taabota Waaqa kiirubeelii gidduu teessoo irra jiru sanaa jechuunis taabota Maqaa Waaqayyootiin waamamu sana achii fiduuf jedhanii gara Baʼaalaa jechuunis gara Kiriyaati Yeʼaariim ishee Yihuudaa keessaa sanaa ni dhaqan.

And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, [that is], to Kirjath-jearim, which [belonged] to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth [between] the cherubims, whose name is called [on it].

7 Isaanis taabota Waaqaa sana gaarii haaraatti feʼanii mana Abiinaadaabiitii ni baasan; Uzaa fi Ahiiyoon gaarii sana oofaa turan.

And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drave the cart.

8 Daawitii fi Israaʼeloonni hundinuu humna isaanii guutuudhaan faarfannaa fi baganaadhaan, kiraaraa fi dibbeedhaan, kilillee fi malakataan fuula Waaqaa duratti gammadanii shuubbisaa.

And David and all Israel played before God with all [their] might, and with singing, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.

9 Yommuu isaan oobdii Kiidoon bira gaʼanitti waan sangoonni gufataniif Uzaan taabota sana qabuuf harka isaa hiixate.

And when they came unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.

10 Sababii Uzaan taabota irra harka isaa kaaʼeef dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo Uzaatti bobaʼe; innis isa rukute; kanaafuu inni achumatti fuula Waaqaa duratti ni duʼe.

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.

11 Daawitis sababii Waaqayyo akka malee Uzaatti dheekkameef ni aare; iddoon sun hamma harʼaatti Phereez Uzaa jedhamee waamama.

And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perez-uzza to this day.

12 Daawitis gaafa sana Waaqa sodaatee, “Ani akkamittan taabota Waaqaa gara mana kootti fiduu dandaʼa?” jedhee gaafate.

And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God [home] to me?

13 Innis akka taabonni isa wajjin Magaalaa Daawit keessa jiraatuuf ofitti hin fudhanne. Qooda kanaa gara mana Oobeed Edoom namicha Gitii sanaatti geesse.

So David brought not the ark [home] to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.

14 Taabonni Waaqaas jiʼa sadii maatii Oobeed Edoom wajjin mana isaa keessa ture; Waaqayyos warra mana isaa jiraatanii fi waan inni qabu hunda ni eebbise.

And the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that he had.
