< 2 Samweli 6 >

1 Tena Daudi akakusanya watu 30,000 wa Israeli waliochaguliwa.
And he gathered again David every chosen [man] in Israel thirty thousand.
2 Yeye na watu wake wote wakatoka Baala ya Yuda kulipandisha Sanduku la Mungu kutoka huko, linaloitwa kwa Jina, naam, jina la Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote, ambaye anaketi katika kiti cha enzi kati ya makerubi walioko juu ya hilo Sanduku.
And he arose - and he went David and all the people which [was] with him from Baalah of Judah to bring up from there [the] ark of God which it is called [the] name [the] name of Yahweh of hosts [who] sits the cherubim on it.
3 Wakaweka hilo Sanduku la Mungu juu ya gari jipya la kukokotwa na kulileta kutoka nyumba ya Abinadabu, iliyokuwa juu ya kilima. Uza na Ahio, wana wa Abinadabu, walikuwa wakiongoza hilo gari jipya la kukokotwa
And they made to ride [the] ark of God to a cart a new and they carried it from [the] house of Abinadab which [was] on the hill and Uzzah and Ahio [the] sons of Abinadab [were] leading the cart new.
4 likiwa na Sanduku la Mungu juu yake, naye Ahio alikuwa anatembea akiwa mbele yake.
And they carried it from [the] house of Abinadab which [was] on the hill with [the] ark of God and Ahio [was] walking before the ark.
5 Daudi na nyumba yote ya Israeli walikuwa wanacheza mbele za Bwana kwa nguvu zao zote, kwa nyimbo, vinubi, zeze, matari, kayamba na matoazi.
And David - and all [the] house of Israel [were] playing before Yahweh on all wood of fir trees and on harps and on lyres and on tambourines and on rattles and on cymbals.
6 Walipofika kwenye uwanja wa kupuria nafaka wa Nakoni, Uza akanyoosha mkono na kulishika Sanduku la Mungu kwa sababu maksai walijikwaa.
And they came to [the] threshing floor of Nacon and he stretched out Uzzah to [the] ark of God and he took hold on it for they had stumbled the ox[en].
7 Hasira ya Bwana ikawaka dhidi ya Uza kwa sababu ya kitendo chake cha kukosa heshima, kwa hiyo Mungu akampiga akafia papo hapo kando ya Sanduku la Mungu.
And it burned [the] anger of Yahweh on Uzzah and he struck down him there God on the presumption and he died there beside [the] ark of God.
8 Ndipo Daudi akakasirika kwa sababu ghadhabu ya Bwana ilifurika dhidi ya Uza, hivyo hadi leo mahali hapo panaitwa Peres-Uza.
And it burned to David on that he had broken out Yahweh a breaking out against Uzzah and someone called the place that Perez Uzzah until the day this.
9 Daudi akamwogopa Bwana siku ile, akasema, “Ni jinsi gani Sanduku la Bwana litakavyoweza kunijia?”
And he feared David Yahweh on the day that and he said how? will it come to me [the] ark of Yahweh.
10 Hakuwa radhi kulichukua Sanduku la Bwana kwake katika Mji wa Daudi. Badala yake akalipeleka kwenye nyumba ya Obed-Edomu, Mgiti.
And not he was willing David to turn aside to himself [the] ark of Yahweh to [the] city of David and he turned aside it David [the] house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
11 Sanduku la Bwana likabaki katika nyumba ya Obed-Edomu, Mgiti, kwa miezi mitatu, naye Bwana akambariki pamoja na nyumba yake yote.
And it remained [the] ark of Yahweh [the] house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months and he blessed Yahweh Obed-Edom and all household his.
12 Kisha Mfalme Daudi akaambiwa, “Bwana ameibariki nyumba ya Obed-Edomu pamoja na kila alicho nacho, kwa sababu ya Sanduku la Mungu.” Basi Daudi akateremka na kulipandisha Sanduku la Mungu kutoka nyumba ya Obed-Edomu hadi Mji wa Daudi kwa shangwe.
And it was told to the king David saying he has blessed Yahweh [the] household of Obed-Edom and all that [belongs] to him for sake of [the] ark of God and he went David and he brought up [the] ark of God from [the] house of Obed-Edom [the] city of David with rejoicing.
13 Wale waliokuwa wamebeba Sanduku la Bwana walipokuwa wametembea hatua sita, Daudi alitoa dhabihu fahali na ndama aliyenoneshwa.
And it was that they had stepped [the] bearers of [the] ark of Yahweh six steps and he sacrificed an ox and a fatling.
14 Daudi, akiwa amevaa kisibau cha kitani, alicheza mbele za Bwana kwa nguvu zake zote,
And David [was] dancing with all strength before Yahweh and David [was] girded an ephod of linen.
15 wakati yeye na nyumba yote ya Israeli walipopandisha Sanduku la Bwana kwa shangwe na sauti za tarumbeta.
And David and all [the] house of Israel [were] bringing up [the] ark of Yahweh with shouting and with [the] sound of a trumpet.
16 Ikawa Sanduku la Bwana lilipokuwa linaingia katika Mji wa Daudi, Mikali binti Sauli akachungulia dirishani. Naye alipomwona Mfalme Daudi akirukaruka na kucheza mbele za Bwana, akamdharau moyoni mwake.
And it was [the] ark of Yahweh coming [the] city of David and Michal [the] daughter of Saul she looked down - through the window and she saw the king David leaping and dancing before Yahweh and she despised him in heart her.
17 Wakaleta Sanduku la Bwana na kuliweka mahali pake ndani ya hema ambalo Daudi alikuwa amelisimamisha kwa ajili yake, naye Daudi akatoa sadaka za kuteketezwa na sadaka za amani mbele za Bwana.
And they brought [the] ark of Yahweh and they set it in place its in [the] midst of the tent which he had pitched for it David and he offered up David burnt offerings before Yahweh and peace offerings.
18 Baada ya kumaliza kutoa sadaka za kuteketezwa na sadaka za amani, Daudi akawabariki watu katika jina la Bwana Mwenye Nguvu Zote.
And he finished David from offering up the burnt offering and the peace offerings and he blessed the people in [the] name of Yahweh of hosts.
19 Kisha akatoa mkate, andazi la tende na andazi la zabibu kavu kwa kila mtu katika mkutano wote wa Waisraeli, wanaume kwa wanawake. Nao watu wote wakaenda nyumbani kwao.
And he distributed to all the people to all [the] multitude of Israel to from a man and unto a woman to each a cake of bread one and a date-cake one and a raisin-cake one and it went all the people each to own house his.
20 Daudi aliporudi ili kuwabariki watu wa nyumbani mwake, Mikali binti Sauli akatoka nje kumlaki, akamwambia, “Tazama jinsi mfalme wa Israeli alivyojibainisha mwenyewe leo kwa kuvua mavazi yake machoni pa vijakazi wa watumishi wake, kama vile ambavyo mtu asiye na adabu angelifanya!”
And he returned David to bless household his and she came out Michal [the] daughter of Saul to meet David and she said how! he has honored himself this day [the] king of Israel who he has uncovered himself this day to [the] eyes of [the] maidservants of servants his as uncovers himself shamelessly one of the worthless [men].
21 Daudi akamwambia Mikali, “Nilifanya hivyo mbele za Bwana ambaye alinichagua mimi badala ya baba yako au mwingine yeyote kutoka nyumba yake wakati aliponiweka niwe mtawala juu ya Israeli, watu wa Bwana. Kwa hiyo nitacheza mbele za Bwana.
And he said David to Michal before Yahweh who he chose me more than father your and more than all household his to appoint me ruler over [the] people of Yahweh over Israel and I will play before Yahweh.
22 Nitakuwa asiye na heshima zaidi kuliko sasa, nami nitajishusha machoni pangu mwenyewe. Lakini kwa hawa vijakazi uliosema habari zao nitaheshimiwa.”
And I will demean myself still more than this and I will be lowly in own eyes my and with the maidservants whom you have said with them I will be honored.
23 Naye Mikali binti Sauli hakuwa na watoto mpaka siku ya kufa kwake.
And to Michal [the] daughter of Saul not it belonged to her a child until [the] day of death her.
