1 Dawid ne ne mpanyimfo a nʼasraafo so asahene ne mmapɔmma nyinaa ka ho, tuu agyina.
Forsothe Dauid took counsel with tribunes, and centuriouns, and alle princes;
2 Na ɔkasa kyerɛɛ Israelfo a wɔahyia hɔ no nyinaa se, “Sɛ mopene so na sɛ ɛyɛ Awurade yɛn Nyankopɔn pɛ a, momma yɛmfa nkra nkɔma Israelfo a wɔwɔ ɔman no afanan nyinaa a asɔfo ne Lewifo a wɔwɔ nkurow so ne adidibea ka ho. Momma yɛnto nsa mfrɛ wɔn, na wɔmmɛka yɛn ho.
and seide to alle the cumpeny of the sones of Israel, If it plesith you, and if the word which Y speke goith out fro oure Lord God, sende we to `oure residue britheren to alle the cuntrees of Israel, and to preestis and dekenes that dwellen in the subarbis of citees, that thei be gaderid to vs,
3 Bere adu sɛ yɛsan de yɛn Nyankopɔn Apam Adaka no ba, efisɛ Saulo ahenni bere so no, yɛampɛ anhwɛ.”
and that we brynge ayen to vs the arke of oure God; for we souyten not it in the daies of Saul.
4 Bagua no penee saa asɛm yi so efisɛ wohuu sɛ, wɔyɛ saa a, eye.
And al the multitude answeride, that it schulde be don so; for the word pleside al the puple.
5 Enti Dawid frɛɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Israel nyinaa, efi ɔman no ti kosi ti, sɛ wɔmmɛka ne ho na wɔmfa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no mfi Kiriat-Yearim mmra.
Therfor Dauid gaderide togidere al Israel, fro Sior of Egipt til thou entre in to Emath, that he schulde brynge the arke of God fro Cariathiarim.
6 Afei, Dawid ne Israelfo no nyinaa kɔɔ Baala a na wɔfrɛ no Kiriat-Yearim a ɛwɔ Yuda no sɛ wɔrekɔfa Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka a wɔde ahyɛ kerubim ntam na Awurade din da so no aba.
And Dauid stiede, and alle the men of Israel, to the hil of Cariathiarym, which is in Juda, that he schulde brynge fro thennus the arke of the Lord God sittynge on cherubyn, where his name was clepid.
7 Wɔde Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no sii teaseɛnam foforo so de fii Abinadab fi a Usa ne Ahio rekyerɛ kwan.
And thei puttiden the arke of the Lord God on a newe wayn fro the hous of Amynadab; forsothe Oza and hise britheren driueden the wayn.
8 Dawid ne Israelfo nyinaa fii wɔn ahoɔden mu too nnwom, bɔɔ mmɛn ahorow a bi yɛ asanku, mmɛnta, akasae, nnawuru ne ntorobɛnto dii ahurusi, Onyankopɔn anim.
Forsothe Dauid and al Israel pleieden bifor the Lord, with al miyt, in songis, and in harpis, and sautries, and tympans, and cymbalis, and trumpis.
9 Nanso woduu Nakon awiporowbea no, anantwi no anan toto maa Usa teɛɛ ne nsa sɛ ɔreteɛ Apam Adaka no.
Forsothe whanne thei hadden come to the cornfloor of Chidon, Oza strechide forth his hond to susteyne the arke; for the oxe wexynge wielde hadde bowid it a litil.
10 Ɛhɔ na Awurade abufuw sɔre tiaa Usa ma owui, efisɛ ɔde ne nsa aka Apam Adaka no. Enti Usa wuu wɔ Onyankopɔn anim hɔ ara.
Therfor the Lord was wrooth ayens Oza, and smoot hym, for he hadde touchide the ark; and he was deed there bifor the Lord.
11 Dawid bo fuwii, efisɛ Awurade abufuw atia Usa. Ɔtoo beae hɔ din Peres-Usa a wɔda so frɛ hɔ saa de besi nnɛ.
And Dauid was sori, for the Lord hadde departid Oza; and he clepide that place The Departyng of Oza `til in to present dai.
12 Afei, na Dawid suro Onyankopɔn, na obisae se, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na matumi de Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka yi aba abɛhwɛ so?”
And Dauid dredde the Lord in that tyme, and seide, How may Y brynge in to me the arke of the Lord?
13 Enti Dawid yɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ ɔnna mmfa Apam Adaka no nkɔ Dawid kurow no mu. Mmom, ɔde kɔɔ Gatni, Obed-Edom fi wɔ Gat.
And for this cause he brouyte not it to hym, that is, in to the citee of Dauid, but he turnede it in to the hows of Obededom of Geth.
14 Onyankopɔn Apam Adaka no sii Obed-Edom abusuafo nkyɛn asram abiɛsa. Na Awurade hyiraa no ne ne fifo nyinaa.
Therfor the arke of God dwellide in the hous of Obededom of Geth thre monethis; and the Lord blessid his hows, and `alle thingis that he hadde.
