1 Crônicas 13
1 David consultou os capitães de milhares e de centenas, mesmo com todos os líderes.
And David consulted with the officers of the thousands and hundreds, and with every leader.
2 David disse a toda a assembléia de Israel: “Se vos parece bom, e se é de Javé nosso Deus, mandemos notícias por toda parte aos nossos irmãos que ficam em toda a terra de Israel, com quem os sacerdotes e levitas estão em suas cidades que têm terras de pasto, para que se reúnam a nós”.
And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, if it seem good unto you, and if it be of the Lord our God, let us send widely about unto our brethren who are left in all the lands of Israel, and with them unto the priests and Levites who are in their cities and open districts, that they may gather themselves together unto us.
3 Também, vamos trazer a arca de nosso Deus de volta para nós, pois não a buscamos nos dias de Saul”.
And let us bring round the ark of our God to us; for we have inquired not at it in the days of Saul.
4 Toda a assembléia disse que o fariam, pois a coisa estava certa aos olhos de todo o povo.
And all the congregation said that this should be done; for the king was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 Então David reuniu todo Israel, desde o rio Shihor do Egito até a entrada de Hamath, para trazer a arca de Deus de Kiriath Jearim.
So David assembled all Israel together, from Shichor of Egypt even unto the entrance of Chemath, to bring the ark of God from Kiryath-ye'arim.
6 David subiu com todo Israel para Baalah, ou seja, para Kiriath Jearim, que pertencia a Judah, para trazer de lá a arca de Deus Yahweh que está acima dos querubins, que é chamada pelo Nome.
And David went up, with all Israel, to Ba'alah, [that is] to Kiryath-ye'arim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the Lord, that dwelleth between the cherubim, whose name is called [on it].
7 Eles carregaram a arca de Deus em um novo carrinho, e a trouxeram para fora da casa de Abinadab; e Uzza e Ahio dirigiram o carrinho.
And they conveyed the ark of God in a new wagon out of the house of Abinadab: and 'Uzza and Achyo guided the wagon.
8 David e todo Israel tocaram diante de Deus com todas as suas forças, mesmo com canções, com harpas, com instrumentos de cordas, com pandeiros, com címbalos e com trombetas.
And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and on harps, and on psalteries, and on tambourines, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
9 Quando chegaram à eira de Chidon, Uzza estendeu sua mão para segurar a arca, pois os bois tropeçaram.
And when they came as far as the threshing-floor of Kidon, 'Uzza put forth his hand to take hold of the ark; for the oxen shook it.
10 A raiva de Yahweh queimou contra Uzza, e ele o atingiu porque colocou sua mão sobre a arca; e ele morreu lá diante de Deus.
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against 'Uzza, and he smote him, because he had put forth his hand toward the ark: and he died there before God.
11 David ficou descontente, porque Yahweh havia fugido contra Uzza. Ele chamou aquele lugar de Perez Uzza, até os dias de hoje.
And it was grievious to David, because the Lord had suddenly taken away 'Uzza; and he called that place Perez-'uzza [[Breach of 'Uzza]] until this day.
12 David tinha medo de Deus naquele dia, dizendo: “Como posso levar a arca de Deus para casa”?
And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring home to me the ark of God?
13 Então David não moveu a arca com ele para a cidade de David, mas a levou para a casa de Obed-Edom, o Gittita.
So David removed not the ark unto himself into the city of David, but had it carried round into the house of 'Obed-edom the Gittite.
14 A arca de Deus permaneceu com a família de Obed-Edom em sua casa três meses; e Yahweh abençoou a casa de Obed-Edom e tudo que ele tinha.
And the ark of God remained in the house of 'Obed-edom, in his house, three months. And the Lord blessed the house of 'Obed-edom, and all that belonged to him.
