2 Samuel 6
1 David je ponovno zbral skupaj vse izbrane može iz Izraela, trideset tisoč.
Then David chose 30,000 Israeli men and gathered them together.
2 In David je vstal in z vsem ljudstvom, ki je bilo z njim, odšel od Baále Judove, da od tam prinese gor Božjo skrinjo, katere ime je imenovano po imenu Gospoda nad bojevniki, ki prebiva med kerubi.
He led them to the place in Judah [formerly] called Baalah, [now called Kiriath-Jearim]. They went in order to bring from there [to Jerusalem] the sacred chest, which had the name of Yahweh, the leader of the armies of [the angels in] heaven, written on it, and which had the [statues of the] winged creatures on top of it. Between those statues was where Yahweh spoke messages about ruling his people [MTY].
3 Božjo skrinjo so postavili na nov voz in jo privedli iz Abinadábove hiše, ki je bila v Gíbei. Abinadábova sinova Uzá in Ahjó pa sta gnala nov voz.
The sacred chest was in the house of Abinadab, on top of a hill. They went there, and they put the chest on a new cart. Uzzah and Ahio, the two sons of Abinadab, were guiding [the oxen that were pulling the cart].
4 Prinesli so jo iz Abinadábove hiše, ki je bila v Gíbei, spremljajoč Božjo skrinjo in Ahjó je šel pred skrinjo.
Uzzah walked alongside the cart, and Ahio walked in front of it.
5 David in vsa Izraelova hiša pa so igrali pred Gospodom na vse vrste glasbil, narejenih iz cipresovega lesa, celo na harfe, na plunke, na tamburine, na kornéte in na cimbale.
David and all the Israeli men were celebrating in God’s presence, singing with all their strength and [playing] lyres and harps, and beating tambourines, and clashing castanets and cymbals.
6 In ko so prišli do Nahónovega mlatišča, je Uzá iztegnil svojo roko k Božji skrinji in jo prijel, kajti voli so jo tresli.
But when they came to the place where Nacon threshed grain, the oxen stumbled. So Uzzah put his hand on the sacred chest to (steady it/prevent it from falling [off the cart]).
7 Gospodova jeza je bila vžgana zoper Uzája in Bog ga je tam udaril zaradi njegove napake; in tam je umrl, ob Božji skrinji.
Yahweh immediately became very angry with Uzzah, and he killed him right there alongside the sacred chest, because he had touched the chest, [and Yahweh had commanded that only the descendants of Levi who help the priests should touch the sacred chest].
8 David je bil razžaljen, ker je Gospod naredil vrzel nad Uzájem, in ime tega mesta je imenoval Perec Uzá do tega dne.
David was angry because Yahweh had punished Uzzah. So ever since that time, that place has been called ‘The Punishment of Uzzah’.
9 David se je tisti dan zbal Gospoda in rekel: »Kako bo Gospodova skrinja prišla k meni?«
David was [also] afraid of [what else] Yahweh [would do to punish them], so he said, “(How can I take the sacred chest with me [to Jerusalem]?/I am afraid to take the sacred chest with me [to Jerusalem].)” [RHQ]
10 Tako David Gospodove skrinje ni hotel prestaviti k sebi v Davidovo mesto, temveč jo je David odvedel vstran, v hišo Gitéjca Obéd Edóma.
So he did not want to take the sacred chest to Jerusalem. Instead, they took it to another place; they took it to the house of Obed-Edom, from Gath [city].
11 In Gospodova skrinja je tri mesece ostala v hiši Gitéjca Obéd Edóma in Gospod je blagoslovil Obéd Edóma in vso njegovo družino.
They left the sacred chest in the house of Obed-Edom for three months, and [during that time] Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom and his family.
12 To je bilo sporočeno kralju Davidu, rekoč: » Gospod je zaradi Božje skrinje blagoslovil hišo Obéd Edóma in vse, kar mu pripada.« Tako je David šel in z veseljem prinesel gor Božjo skrinjo iz hiše Obéd Edóma v Davidovo mesto.
Later, people told David, “Yahweh has blessed Obed-Edom and his family because [he is taking care] of the sacred chest!” When David heard that, he [and some other men] went to Obed-Edom’s house, and very joyfully brought the sacred chest from there to Jerusalem.
13 In bilo je tako, da ko so tisti, ki so nosili Gospodovo skrinjo, naredili šest korakov, je žrtvoval vole in pitance.
[This time, descendants of Levi] were carrying the sacred chest, but when they had walked only six steps, they stopped, and there David killed a bull and a fat calf, and offered them to Yahweh for a sacrifice.
14 David je z vso svojo močjo plesal pred Gospodom in David je bil opasan z lanenim efódom.
David was wearing [only] a linen cloth wrapped around his waist, and was dancing very energetically to honor Yahweh.
15 Tako so David in vsa Izraelova hiša z vriskanjem in z zvokom šofarja Gospodovo skrinjo prinesli gor.
David and the Israeli men took the sacred chest up [to Jerusalem], shouting [loudly] and blowing trumpets.
16 Ko je Gospodova skrinja prišla v Davidovo mesto, je Savlova hči Mihála pogledala skozi okno in videla kralja Davida skakati in plesati pred Gospodom in ga prezirala v svojem srcu.
While they were carrying the sacred chest into the city, [David’s wife] Michal, who was Saul’s daughter, looked out the window [of her house]. She saw King David leaping and dancing to honor Yahweh. So she was disgusted with him.
17 In prinesli so Gospodovo skrinjo in jo postavili na njen kraj, v sredo šotorskega svetišča, ki ga je David razpel zanjo in David je pred Gospodom daroval žgalne daritve in mirovne daritve.
They brought the sacred chest into the tent that David had erected for it. Then David gave to Yahweh offerings to be completely burned [on an altar], and other offerings to maintain fellowship with Yahweh.
18 Takoj, ko je David prenehal darovati žgalne daritve in mirovne daritve, je v imenu Gospoda nad bojevniki blagoslovil ljudstvo.
When David had finished offering those sacrifices, he asked Yahweh, the Commander of the armies [of the angels], to bless the people.
19 Med vse ljudstvo je razdelil, celó med celotno Izraelovo množico, tako ženskam kakor moškim, vsakomur kolač kruha, dober kos mesa in flaškon vina. Tako je vse ljudstvo odšlo vsak k svoji hiši.
He also distributed food to all the people. To each Israeli man and woman he gave a loaf of bread, some meat, and a raisin cake. Then all the people returned to their homes.
20 Potem se je David vrnil, da blagoslovi svojo družino. Savlova hči Mihála pa je prišla ven, da sreča Davida in rekla: »Kako veličasten je bil danes Izraelov kralj, ki se je danes razkril pred očmi pomočnic svojih služabnikov, kakor se brezsramno razkriva nekdo izmed nadutih pajdašev.«
When David went home to [ask Yahweh to] bless his family, his wife Michal came out to meet him. She said to him, “Maybe you, the king of Israel, [think that you] [IRO] were honoring yourself today, but really, you acted like a fool, uncovering yourself while the female servants of your officials were watching!”
21 David je rekel Miháli: » To je bilo pred Gospodom, ki me je izbral pred tvojim očetom in pred vso njegovo hišo, da me določi [za] vladarja nad Gospodovim ljudstvom, nad Izraelom. Zato bom igral pred Gospodom.
David replied to Michal, “[I was doing that] to honor Yahweh, who chose me instead of your father and other members of his family, to be the king of the Israeli people, the people who belong to Yahweh. And I will [continue to] dance to honor Yahweh!
22 In še bolj se bom pomanjšal kakor to in bom ponižen v svojem lastnem pogledu. Glede dekel pa, o katerih si govorila, od njih bom imel spoštovanje.«
[Even though you think that what I did] was disgraceful, I will continue to do it even more. You may despise me [because of what I did], but the women whom you were talking about will honor me!”
23 Zato Savlova hči Mihála ni imela nobenega otroka do dneva svoje smrti.
[As a result, ] Saul’s daughter Michal never gave birth to any children.
