1 I David uèini vijeæe s tisuænicima i sa stotinicima i sa svijem vojvodama,
David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, even with every leader.
2 I reèe David svemu zboru Izrailjevu: ako vam je po volji, i ako je od Gospoda Boga našega, da pošaljemo na sve strane k braæi svojoj ostaloj po svijem krajevima Izrailjevijem, i k sveštenicima i Levitima po gradovima i podgraðima njihovijem, da se skupe k nama,
David said to all the assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if it is of the LORD our God, let’s send word everywhere to our brothers who are left in all the land of Israel, with whom the priests and Levites are in their cities that have pasture lands, that they may gather themselves to us.
3 Pa da donesemo k sebi kovèeg Boga svojega, jer ga ne tražismo za vremena Saulova.
Also, let’s bring the ark of our God back to us again, for we didn’t seek it in the days of Saul.”
4 A sav zbor reèe da se tako uèini, jer to bi po volji svemu narodu.
All the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 I tako David sabra sav narod Izrailjev od Sihora Misirskoga dori do Emata, da donesu kovèeg Božji iz Kirijat-Jarima.
So David assembled all Israel together, from the Shihor River of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, to bring God’s ark from Kiriath Jearim.
6 I otide David sa svijem Izrailjem u Valu, u Kirijat-Jarim Judin, da prenesu odande kovèeg Boga Gospoda, koji sjedi na heruvimima, èije se ime prizivlje.
David went up with all Israel to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath Jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there God the LORD’s ark that sits above the cherubim, that is called by the Name.
7 I povezoše kovèeg Božji na novijem kolima iz kuæe Avinadavove; a Uza i Ahijo upravljahu kolima.
They carried God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house; and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
8 A David i sav narod Izrailjev igrahu pred Bogom iz sve snage pjevajuæi i udarajuæi u gusle i u psaltire i u bubnje i u kimvale i trubeæi u trube.
David and all Israel played before God with all their might, even with songs, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with cymbals, and with trumpets.
9 A kad doðoše do gumna Hidonova, Uza se maši rukom da prihvati kovèeg, jer volovi potegoše na stranu.
When they came to Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled.
10 I Gospod se razgnjevi na Uzu, i udari ga što se maši rukom za kovèeg, te umrije ondje pred Bogom.
The LORD’s anger burned against Uzza, and he struck him because he put his hand on the ark; and he died there before God.
11 I ožalosti se David što Gospod ubi Uzu: zato se prozva ono mjesto Fares-Uza do danas.
David was displeased, because the LORD had broken out against Uzza. He called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
12 I uplaši se David od Boga u onaj dan, i reèe: kako æu donijeti k sebi kovèeg Božji?
David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring God’s ark home to me?”
13 I ne prenese David kovèega k sebi u grad Davidov, nego ga skloni u kuæu Ovid-Edoma Getejina.
So David didn’t move the ark with him into David’s city, but carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
14 I osta kovèeg Božji kod porodice Ovid-Edomove u kuæi njegovoj tri mjeseca. I Gospod blagoslovi dom Ovid-Edomov i sve što imaše.
God’s ark remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months; and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom’s house and all that he had.
