< 1 Kroniška 13 >

1 David se je posvetoval s poveljniki nad tisočimi in nad stotimi in z vsakim voditeljem.
And David consulted with the captains of thousands, and of hundreds, [and] with every leader.
2 David je vsej Izraelovi skupnosti rekel: »Če se vam to zdi dobro in je to od Gospoda, našega Boga, pošljimo vsem našim bratom naokoli, ki so ostali v vsej Izraelovi deželi in z njimi tudi duhovnikom in Lévijevcem, ki so v njihovih mestih in predmestjih, da se bodo lahko zbrali k nam,
And David said to all the congregation of Israel, If [it seemeth] good to you, and [that it is] of the LORD our God, let us send abroad to our brethren every where, [that are] left in all the land of Israel, and with them [also] to the priests and Levites [who are] in their cities [and] suburbs, that they may assemble to us:
3 in ponovno privedimo k sebi skrinjo našega Boga, kajti v Savlovih dneh nismo povpraševali po njej.«
And let us bring again to us the ark of our God: for we inquired not at it in the days of Saul.
4 Vsa skupnost je rekla, da bodo tako storili, kajti stvar je bila pravilna v očeh vsega ljudstva.
And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 Tako je David zbral skupaj ves Izrael, od egiptovskega Šihórja, celo do vstopa v Hamát, da Božjo skrinjo privede iz Kirját Jearíma.
So David assembled all Israel, from Shihor of Egypt even to the entrance of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath-jearim.
6 David se je dvignil in ves Izrael v Baálo, to je v Kirját Jearím, ki pripada Judu, da od tam privede Božjo skrinjo Gospoda, ki prebiva med kerubi, katerega ime je imenovano na njej.
And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, [that is], to Kirjath-jearim, 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 Božjo skrinjo so odpeljali na novem vozu iz Abinadábove hiše. Uzá in Ahjó pa sta gnala voz.
And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
8 David in ves Izrael so igrali pred Bogom z vso svojo močjo, s petjem, harfami, plunkami, tamburini, cimbalami in trobentami.
And David and all Israel played before God with all [their] might, and with singing, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
9 Ko so prišli na Kidónovo mlatišče, je Uzá iztegnil svojo roko, da pridrži skrinjo, kajti voli so se spotaknili.
And when they came to the threshing-floor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.
10 Gospodova jeza je bila vžgana zoper Uzá in ga je udaril, ker je svojo roko položil k skrinji in tam je umrl pred Bogom.
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.
11 David je bil razžaljen, ker je Gospod naredil vrzel nad Uzájem, zato je ta kraj do tega dne imenovan Perec Uzá.
And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perez-uzza to this day.
12 David se je tisti dan bal Boga, rekoč: »Kako naj Božjo skrinjo pripeljem k sebi domov?«
And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God [home] to me?
13 Tako David skrinje ni pripeljal k sebi domov, v Davidovo mesto, temveč jo je odnesel stran, v hišo Gitéjca Obéd Edóma.
So David brought not the ark to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
14 Božja skrinja je ostala tri mesece z družino Obéd Edóma v njegovi hiši. Gospod je blagoslovil hišo Obéd Edóma in vse, kar je ta imel.
And the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that he had.
