1 Crônicas 13
1 E teve David conselho com os capitães dos milhares, e dos centos, e com todos os principes.
Then David took counsel with the tribunes, and the centurions, and all the leaders.
2 E disse David a toda a congregação de Israel: Se bem vos parece, e que vem do Senhor nosso Deus, enviemos depressa mensageiros a todos os nossos outros irmãos em todas as terras de Israel, e aos sacerdotes, e aos levitas com elles nas cidades e nos seus arrabaldes, para que se ajuntem comnosco.
And he said to the entire assembly of Israel: “If it pleases you, and if the words that I speak come from the Lord our God, let us send to the remainder of our brothers, in all the regions of Israel, and to the priests and Levites who live in the suburbs of the cities, so that they may gather to us.
3 E tornemos a trazer para nós a arca do nosso Deus; porque não a buscámos nos dias de Saul.
And let us bring back the ark of our God to us. For we did not seek it during the days of Saul.”
4 Então disse toda a congregação que assim se fizesse; porque este negocio pareceu recto aos olhos de todo o povo.
And the entire multitude responded that it should be done. For the word had pleased all the people.
5 Ajuntou pois David a todo o Israel desde Sihor do Egypto até chegar a Hamath; para trazer a arca de Deus de Kiriath-jearim.
Therefore, David gathered all of Israel, from Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, so as to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.
6 E então David com todo o Israel subiu a Baala e d'ali a Kiriath-jearim, que está em Judah, para fazer subir d'ali a arca de Deus, o Senhor que habita entre os cherubins, sobre a qual é invocado o seu nome.
And David ascended with all the men of Israel to the hill of Kiriath-jearim, which is in Judah, so that he might bring from there the ark of the Lord God, sitting upon the Cherubim, where his name is invoked.
7 E levaram a arca de Deus sobre um carro novo, da casa de Abinadab: e Uza e Ahio guiavam o carro.
And they placed the ark of God upon a new cart from the house of Abinadab. Then Uzzah and his brother drove the cart.
8 E David, e todo o Israel, tocava perante Deus com toda a sua força; em canticos, e com harpas, e com alaudes, e com tamboris, e com cymbalos, e com trombetas.
Now David and all of Israel were playing before God, with all of their ability, in songs, and with harps, and psalteries, and timbrels, and cymbals, and trumpets.
9 E, chegando á eira de Chidon, estendeu Uza a sua mão, para ter mão na arca; porque os bois tropeçavam.
And when they had arrived at the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzzah reached out his hand, so that he might support the ark. For indeed, the ox being wanton had caused it to incline a little.
10 Então se accendeu a ira do Senhor contra Uza, e o feriu, por ter estendido a sua mão á arca: e morreu ali perante Deus.
And so the Lord became angry against Uzzah. And he struck him down because he had touched the ark. And he died there before the Lord.
11 E David se encheu de tristeza de que o Senhor houvesse aberto brecha em Uza; pelo que chamou áquelle logar Perez-uza, até ao dia d'hoje.
And David was greatly saddened because the Lord had divided Uzzah. And he called that place ‘the Division of Uzzah,’ even to the present day.
12 E aquelle dia temeu David ao Senhor, dizendo: Como trarei a mim a arca de Deus?
And then he feared God, at that time, saying: “How will I be able to bring in the ark of God to myself?”
13 Pelo que David não trouxe a arca a si, á cidade de David; porém a fez retirar á casa de Obed-edom, o getheo.
And for this reason, he did not bring it to himself, that is, into the City of David. Instead, he turned aside to the house of Obededom, the Gittite.
14 Assim ficou a arca de Deus com a familia de Obed-edom, tres mezes em sua casa: e o Senhor abençoou a casa de Obed-edom, e tudo quanto tinha.
Therefore, the ark of God dwelt in the house of Obededom for three months. And the Lord blessed his house and all that he had.
