2 Saamuʼeel 6
1 Daawit ammas namoota Israaʼel keessaa filataman kuma soddoma walitti qabate.
Once again David called up all specially chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand in total.
2 Innii fi namoonni isa wajjin turan hundi taabota Waaqaa kan Maqaa, maqaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu kan taabota gubbaa, kiirubeelii teessoo irra jiran gidduu jiru sanaatiin waamamu sana achii fiduuf gara Baʼaalaa ishee Yihuudaa keessaa sanaa ni dhaqan.
He went with all his men to Baalah in Judah to bring back the Ark of God, which belongs to the Lord Almighty who sits between the cherubim that are on the Ark.
3 Isaanis taabota Waaqaa gaarii haaraa irra kaaʼanii mana Abiinaadaab kan gaara irra jiru sanaa baasanii fidan. Ilmaan Abiinaadaabii, Uzaa fi Ahiiyoon gaarii haaraa sana oofaa turan;
They placed the Ark of God on a new cart and brought it from Abinadab's house, which was on a hill. Uzzah and Ahio, Abinadab's sons, were directing the cart
4 taabonni Waaqaas gaarii irra kaaʼamee Ahiiyoon dura dura deema ture.
with the Ark of God on it, with Ahio walking in front of it.
5 Daawitii fi Israaʼel hundinuu humna isaanii guutuudhaan faarfannaadhaan, masiinqoodhaan, baganaadhaan, dibbeedhaan, bilbilaan, Kililleedhaanis fuula Waaqayyoo duratti gammadanii shuubbisaa turan.
David and all the Israelites were celebrating in the Lord's presence, singing songs accompanied by zithers, harps, tambourines, rattles, and cymbals.
6 Yommuu isaan oobdii Naakoon bira gaʼanitti waan sangoonni gufataniif Uzaan harka isaa hiixatee taabota Waaqaa qabe.
But when they came to the threshing floor of Nachon, the oxen stumbled, so Uzzah reached out to stop the Ark of God from falling.
7 Sababii hojii isaa kan ulfina hin qabneetiif dheekkamsi Waaqayyoo Uzaatti bobaʼe; kanaafuu Waaqni isa rukute; innis achumatti taabota Waaqaa biratti duʼe.
The Lord was angry with Uzzah, and God struck him down right there for his disobedience, and he died beside the Ark of God.
8 Daawitis sababii Waaqayyo akka malee Uzaatti dheekkameef ni aare; iddoon sun hamma harʼaatti Phereez Uzaa jedhamee waamama.
David was angry because of the Lord's violent outburst against Uzzah. He called the place Perez-uzzah, which is still its name today.
9 Daawitis gaafa sana Waaqayyoon sodaatee, “Taabonni Waaqayyoo akkamitti gara koo dhufa?” jedhe.
David became afraid of the Lord that day. “How can I ever bring back the Ark of God home to me?” he asked.
10 Innis akka taabonni Waaqayyoo isa wajjin Magaalaa Daawit keessa jiraatuuf ofitti fudhachuu hin barbaanne. Qooda kanaa gara mana Oobeed Edoom namicha Gitii sanaatti geesse.
Not wanting to bring the Ark of the Lord to be with him in the City of David, he had it taken to the home of Obed-edom the Gittite.
11 Taabonni Waaqayyoos jiʼa sadii mana namicha Gitii kan Oobeed Edoom jedhamu sanaa ture; Waaqayyos isaa fi warra mana isaa jiraatan hunda ni eebbise.
The Ark of the Lord remained in Obed-edom's home for three months, and the Lord blessed Obed-edom's whole household.
12 Yeroo kanatti, “Waaqayyo sababii taabota Waaqaatiif jedhee warra mana Oobeed Edoom jiraatanii fi waan inni qabu hunda ni eebbise” jedhanii Daawit Mootichatti himan. Kanaafuu Daawit gad buʼee taabota Waaqaa sana mana Abiidaaraatii gammachuudhaan gara Magaalaa Daawititti fide.
King David was told, “The Lord has blessed Obed-edom's household and all that he has because of the Ark of God.” So David went and had the Ark of God brought from Obed-edom's house to the City of David. There was a lot of celebration!
13 Innis akkuma namoonni taabota Waaqayyoo baatan sun tarkaanfii jaʼa achi hiiqaniin sangaa tokkoo fi jabbii coomaa tokko aarsaa dhiʼeesse.
After those carrying the Ark of the Lord had taken six steps, he sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf.
14 Daawitis Dirata quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame uffatee qondaaltota isaa wajjin fuula Waaqayyoo duratti humna isaa guutuun shuubbisa ture;
Wearing a priest's ephod, David danced as hard as he could before the Lord
15 innii fi Israaʼel hundi “hoo” jechaa sagalee malakataatiin taabota Waaqayyoo fidan.
as he and all the Israelites brought along the Ark of the Lord, with plenty of shouting and the sound of horns being blown.
16 Yeroo taabonni Waaqayyoo Magaalaa Daawit seenutti Miikaal intalli Saaʼol foddaa keessaan ilaalaa turte. Isheenis akka Daawit Mootichi fuula Waaqayyoo duratti utaalee shuubbisu yommuu argitetti garaa ishee keessatti isa tuffatte.
As the Ark of the Lord was carried into the City of David, Saul's daughter Michal looked down from a window. She watched King David leaping and dancing before the Lord, and she really loathed him.
17 Isaanis taabota Waaqayyoo fidanii dunkaana Daawit dhaabeef keessa ni kaaʼan; Daawitis aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa fuula Waaqayyoo duratti dhiʼeesse.
They brought the Ark of the Lord and put it on its place inside the tent that David had set up for it. Then David offered burnt offerings and friendship offerings before the Lord.
18 Innis erga aarsaa gubamuu fi aarsaa nagaa dhiʼeessee booddee maqaa Waaqayyoo Waan Hunda Dandaʼuutiin namoota ni eebbise.
Once he had finished offering the sacrifices, David blessed the people in the name of the Lord Almighty.
19 Ergasiis inni tokkoo tokkoo nama tuuta Israaʼelootaa guutuu keessa jiruutiif jechuunis dhiirotaafis dubartootaafis buddeena tokko tokko, gumaa foonii tokko tokkoo fi bixxillee ija wayinii tokko tokko ni kenne. Namoonni hundinuus gara mana mana isaanii deeman.
He gave all the Israelites, both men and women, a loaf of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. Then he sent everyone home.
20 Yommuu Daawit maatii ofii isaa eebbisuuf deebiʼettis Miikaal intalli Saaʼol isa simachuuf baatee, “Harʼa mootiin Israaʼel akka nama gatii hin qabne tokkootti fuula xomboreewwan hojjettoota isaa duratti qullaa argamuun isaa ulfina taʼeeti moo!” jette.
When David got home to bless his family, Michal, Saul's daughter came out to meet him and said, “How distinguished the king of Israel made himself look today, taking off his robes so everyone's servant girls could see, just as somebody crude would expose himself!”
21 Daawit immoo Miikaaliin akkana jedhe; “Ani fuula Waaqayyo isa abbaa keetii fi warra mana isaa jiran caalchisee na filatee saba Waaqayyoo, Israaʼel irratti na muude sanaaf fuula Waaqayyoo duratti nan shuubbisa.
David told Michal, “I was dancing before the Lord, who chose me instead of your father and all his family when he named me ruler over the Lord's people Israel. I will continue to celebrate before the Lord,
22 Ani kana caalaa iyyuu ofin xinneessa; ija kee durattis of nan salphisa. Xomboreewwan ati jette kanneeniin garuu nan kabajama.”
in fact I'm going to make myself even less distinguished, become even more humble. However, I will be respected by those servant girls you spoke about.”
23 Miikaal intalli Saaʼol utuu ijoollee hin argatin duute.
And Michal, Saul's daughter, never had any children.
