1 Crônicas 15

1 David se fez casas na cidade de David; e preparou um lugar para a arca de Deus, e armou uma tenda para ela.

He made also houses for himself in the city of David: and built a place for the ark of God, and pitched a tabernacle for it.

2 Então David disse: “Ninguém deve carregar a arca de Deus, a não ser os Levitas”. Pois Javé os escolheu para carregar a arca de Deus, e para ministrar a ele para sempre”.

Then David said: No one ought to carry the ark of God, but the Levites, whom the Lord hath chosen to carry it, and to minister unto himself for ever.

3 David reuniu todo Israel em Jerusalém, para levar a arca de Javé até seu lugar, que ele havia preparado para ele.

And he gathered all Israel together into Jerusalem, that the ark of God might be brought into its place, which he had prepared for it.

4 Davi reuniu os filhos de Aarão e os levitas:

And the sons of Aaron also, and the Levites.

5 dos filhos de Coate, Uriel o chefe, e seus irmãos cento e vinte;

Of the children of Caath, Uriel was the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty.

6 dos filhos de Merari, Asaías o chefe, e seus irmãos duzentos e vinte;

Of the sons of Merari, Asaia the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty.

7 dos filhos de Gérson, Joel o chefe, e seus irmãos cento e trinta;

Of the sons of Gersom, Joel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and thirty.

8 dos filhos de Elizaphan, Semaías, o chefe, e seus irmãos duzentos;

Of the sons of Elisaphan, Semeias the chief: and his brethren two hundred.

9 dos filhos de Hebron, Eliel, o chefe, e seus irmãos oitenta;

Of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief: and his brethren eighty.

10 dos filhos de Uzziel, Amminadab, o chefe, e seus irmãos cento e doze.

Of the sons of Oziel, Aminadab the chief: and his brethren a hundred and twelve.

11 David chamou por Zadok e Abiathar os sacerdotes, e pelos levitas: por Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Semaías, Eliel e Amminadab,

And David called Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites, Uriel, Asaia, Joel, Semeia, Eliel, and Aminadab:

12 e disse-lhes: “Vocês são os chefes de família dos pais dos levitas. Santificai-vos, vós e vossos irmãos, para que possais levar a arca de Javé, o Deus de Israel, até o lugar que eu preparei para ela”.

And he said to them: You that are the heads of the Levitical families, be sanctified with your brethren, and brine the ark of the Lord the God of Israel to the place, which is prepared for it:

13 Pois, porque não a carregou no início, Javé nosso Deus irrompeu em cólera contra nós, porque não o procuramos de acordo com a ordenança”.

Lest as the Lord at first struck us, because you were not present, the same should now also come to pass, by our doing some thing against the law.

14 Assim, os sacerdotes e os levitas se santificaram para trazer a arca de Yahweh, o Deus de Israel.

So the priests and the Levites were sanctified, to carry the ark of the Lord the God of Israel.

15 Os filhos dos levitas carregaram a arca de Deus sobre seus ombros com seus bastões, como Moisés ordenou, de acordo com a palavra de Javé.

And the sons of Levi took the ark of God as Moses had commanded, according to the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders, with the staves.

16 David falou com o chefe dos Levitas para designar seus irmãos como cantores com instrumentos de música, instrumentos de corda, harpas e címbalos, soando alto e levantando suas vozes com alegria.

And David spoke to the chiefs of the Levites, to appoint some of their brethren to be singers with musical instruments, to wit, on psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, that the joyful noise might resound on high.

17 Então os levitas nomearam Heman, filho de Joel; e de seus irmãos, Asafe, filho de Berequias; e dos filhos de Merari, seus irmãos, Ethan, filho de Kushaiah;

And they appointed Levites, Hemam the son of Joel, and of his brethren Asaph the son of Barachias: and of the sons of Merari, their brethren: Ethan the son of Casaia.

18 e com eles seus irmãos de segunda categoria: Zacarias, Ben, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, e Jeiel, os porteiros.

And with them their brethren: in the second rank, Zacharias, and Ben, and Jaziel, and Semiramoth, and Jahiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Banaias, and Maasias, and Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias, and Obededom, and Jehiel, the porters.

19 Assim, os cantores Heman, Asaph e Ethan receberam címbalos de bronze para soar em voz alta;

Now the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, sounded with cymbals of brass.

20 e Zacarias, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah e Benaiah, com instrumentos de cordas ajustados a Alamoth;

And Zacharias, and Oziel, and Semiramoth, and Jehiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Maasias, and Banaias, sung mysteries upon psalteries.

21 e Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, Jeiel e Azaziah, com harpas afinadas à lira de oito cordas, para liderar.

And Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias and Obededom, and Jehiel and Ozaziu, sung a song of victory for the octave upon harps.

22 Chenaniah, chefe dos Levitas, estava sobre a cantoria. Ele ensinava os cantores, porque era habilidoso.

And Chonenias chief of the Levites, presided over the prophecy, to give out the tunes: for he was very skillful.

23 Berechiah e Elkanah eram porteiros para a arca.

And Barachias, and Elcana, were doorkeepers of the ark.

24 Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zacarias, Benaia e Eliezer, os sacerdotes, tocaram as trombetas diante da arca de Deus; e Obede-Edom e Jeías foram porteiros da arca.

And Sebenias, and Josaphat, and Nathanael, and Amasai, and Zacharias, and Banaias, and Eliezer the priests, sounded with trumpets, before the ark of God: and Obededom and Jehias were porters of the ark.

25 Então David, os anciãos de Israel, e os capitães de mais de milhares foram trazer a arca do pacto de Javé para fora da casa de Obede-Edom com alegria.

So David and all the ancients of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the house of Obededom with joy.

26 Quando Deus ajudou os levitas que levavam a arca do convênio de Iavé, eles sacrificaram sete touros e sete carneiros.

And when God had helped the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, they offered in sacrifice seven oxen, and seven rams.

27 David estava vestido com um manto de linho fino, assim como todos os levitas que levavam a arca, os cantores, e Chenaniah, o mestre do coro, com os cantores; e David tinha um éfode de linho sobre ele.

And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that carried the ark, and the singing men, and Chonenias the ruler of the prophecy among the singers: and David also had on him an ephod of linen.

28 Assim, todo Israel trouxe a arca da aliança de Iavé com gritos, com o som da corneta, com trombetas e com címbalos, soando em voz alta com instrumentos de cordas e harpas.

And all Israel brought the ark of the covenant of the Lord with joyful shouting, and sounding with the sound of the comet, and with trumpets, and cymbals, and psalteries, and harps.

29 Quando a arca do pacto de Iavé chegou à cidade de Davi, Michal, filha de Saul, olhou pela janela e viu o rei Davi dançando e tocando; e ela o desprezou em seu coração.

And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come to the city of David, Michol the daughter of Saul looking out at a window, saw king David dancing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
