2 Samuel 6

1 Na Dawid boaboaa Israel mmabun a wɔn ho mmu wɔn dwɛ mpem aduasa ano.

Againe Dauid gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, euen thirtie thousand,

2 Odii wɔn anim fi Baala a ɛwɔ Yuda, sɛ wɔrekɔfa Onyankopɔn Adaka, a ekura Awurade Tumfo no a wɔde no asi kerubim ntam no din.

And Dauid arose and went with all the people that were with him from Baale of Iudah to bring vp from thence the Arke of God, whose name is called by the Name of the Lord, of hostes, that dwelleth vpon it betweene the Cherubims.

3 Wɔde Onyankopɔn Adaka no sii teaseɛnam foforo so, de fii Abinadab fi a na ɛwɔ bepɔw so no bae. Usa ne Ahio a na wɔyɛ Abinadab mmabarima no na na wɔkyerɛ teaseɛnam foforo no

And they put the Arke of God vpon a newe cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was in Gibeah. And Vzzah and Ahio the sonnes of Abinadab did driue the newe carte.

4 a na Onyankopɔn Adaka no si mu no kwan. Na Ahio na odi anim.

And when they brought the Arke of God out of the house of Abinadab, that was at Gibeah, Ahio went before the Arke,

5 Dawid ne Israel manfo gyee wɔn ani wɔ Awurade anim wɔ ahoɔden so a wɔreto nnwom, na wɔde asanku, mmɛnta, akasae, mfirikyiwa ne kyɛnkyɛn nenam mu.

And Dauid and al the house of Israel played before the Lord on all instruments made of firre, and on harpes, and on Psalteries, and on timbrels, and on cornets, and on cymbals.

6 Na woduu Nakon awiporowbea no, nantwi no nan totoe, maa Usa teɛɛ ne nsa soo Onyankopɔn Adaka no mu sɛ ɔreteɛ no.

And when they came to Nachons threshing floore, Vzzah put his hande to the Arke of God, and helde it: for the oxen did shake it.

7 Na Awurade bo fuw Usa sɛ ɔyɛɛ saa, na Onyankopɔn bɔɔ no ma owu daa adaka no ho.

And the Lord was verie wroth with Vzzah, and God smote him in the same place for his fault, and there he dyed by the Arke of God.

8 Dawid nso bo fuw, efisɛ Awurade abufuw atia Usa. Ɔtoo saa beae hɔ din Peres-Usa a ase ne abufuwhyew a etia Usa. Wɔfrɛ hɔ saa ara de besi nnɛ.

And Dauid was displeased, because the Lord had smitten Vzzah: and he called the name of the place Perez Vzzah vntill this day.

9 Afei, na Dawid suro Awurade nti obisaa se, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na Awurade adaka no bɛba me nkyɛn?”

Therefore Dauid that day feared the Lord, and sayd, How shall the Arke of the Lord come to mee?

10 Na Dawid yɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ, ɔremma Awurade Adaka no so nkɔ Dawid Kuropɔn no mu. Na mmom, ɔmaa so de kɔɔ Obed-Edom a ɔyɛ Gatni fi.

So Dauid would not bring the Arke of the Lord vnto him into the citie of Dauid, but Dauid caried it into ye house of Obed-edom a Gittite.

11 Na Awurade adaka no sii Gatni Obed-Edom fifo nkyɛn asram abiɛsa, na Awurade hyiraa no ne ne fi mu nnipa nyinaa.

And the Arke of the Lord continued in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite, three moneths, and the Lord blessed Obed-edom, and all his houshold.

12 Afei, wɔka kyerɛɛ ɔhene Dawid se, “Esiane Awurade Adaka no nti, Awurade ahyira Obed-Edom fi ne biribiara a ɔwɔ so.” Enti Dawid kɔɔ hɔ kɔfaa Adaka no, de osebɔ kɛse baa Dawid Kuropɔn no mu.

And one told King Dauid, saying, The Lord hath blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that hee hath, because of the Arke of God: therefore Dauid went and brought the Arke of God from the house of Obed-edom, into the citie of Dauid with gladnesse.

13 Nnipa a na wɔso Awurade Adaka no tuu anammɔn asia pɛ, wogyinaa hɔ twɛnee, sɛnea Dawid betumi de nantwi ne nantwi ba a wadɔ srade abɔ afɔre.

And when they that bare the Arke of the Lord had gone sixe paces, he offred an oxe, and a fatte beast.

14 Na Dawid fii nʼahoɔden nyinaa mu saw wɔ Awurade anim a na ɔhyɛ asɔfotade yuu.

And Dauid danced before the Lord with al his might, and was girded with a linnen Ephod.

15 Enti Dawid ne Israel nyinaa de nteɛteɛmu ne ntorobɛntohyɛn maa Awurade Adaka no so kɔe.

So Dauid and all the house of Israel, brought the Arke of the Lord with shouting, and sound of trumpet.

16 Bere a wɔde Awurade Adaka no rewura Dawid Kuropɔn no mu no, Saulo babea a ne din de Mikal no kɔtɛwee mfɛnsere mu hwɛe. Ohuu sɛ ɔhene Dawid rehuruhuruw, resaw anigye so wɔ Awurade anim no, nʼani annye.

And as the Arke of the Lord came into the citie of Dauid, Michal Sauls daughter looked through a windowe, and sawe King Dauid leape, and dance before the Lord, and shee despised him in her heart.

17 Wɔde Awurade Adaka no kosii nʼafa wɔ ntamadan a ɛno nti, Dawid asi no mu, na Dawid bɔɔ ɔhyew afɔre ne asomdwoe afɔre wɔ Awurade anim.

And when they had brought in the Arke of the Lord, they set it in his place, in the mids of the tabernacle that Dauid had pitched for it: then Dauid offred burnt offrings, and peace offrings before the Lord.

18 Owiei no, ohyiraa nkurɔfo no wɔ Asafo Awurade din mu.

And assoone as Dauid had made an ende of offring burnt offrings and peace offrings, hee blessed the people in the Name of the Lord of hostes,

19 Afei, ɔmaa Israel dɔm no mu onipa biara brodo mua, namkum ne bobe aba ɔfam. Na wɔn mu biara kɔɔ ne fi.

And gaue among all the people, euen among the whole multitude of Israel, aswel to the women as men, to euerie one a cake of bread, and a piece of flesh, and a bottell of wine: so all the people departed euerie one to his house.

20 Bere a Dawid san kɔɔ ne fi sɛ ɔrekohyira ne fifo no, Mikal fii adi ba behyiaa no ka kyerɛɛ no abufuw so se, “Nnɛ de, na Israelhene nsɛ ha! Ɔpaa ne ho kyerɛɛ ne mfenaa te sɛ nea obiara a ommu ne ho bɛyɛ no ara pɛ.”

The Dauid returned to blesse his house, and Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meete Dauid, and sayde, O howe glorious was the King of Israel this day, which was vncouered to day in the eyes of the maidens of his seruantes, as a foole vncouereth himselfe.

21 Dawid buaa Mikal se, “Na meresaw wɔ Awurade a oyii me, na otwaa wʼagya ne nʼabusuafo gyawee no anim. Oyii me sɛ menyɛ Israel a wɔyɛ Awurade nkurɔfo ɔkannifo. Ɛno nti, ɛyɛ me pɛ sɛ meyɛ me ho sɛ ɔkwasea, sɛnea ɛbɛma makyerɛ mʼahokeka a mewɔ wɔ Awurade mu.

Then Dauid sayd vnto Michal, It was before the Lord, which chose me rather then thy father, and all his house, and commanded me to bee ruler ouer the people of the Lord, euen ouer Israel: and therefore will I play before the Lord,

22 Yiw, na mepɛ sɛ meyɛ ɔkwasea koraa sen eyi, na mmeawa koro yi ara a woreka wɔn ho asɛm yi bɛhyɛ me anuonyam.”

And will yet be more vile then thus, and will be low in mine owne sight, and of the verie same maidseruants, which thou hast spoken of, shall I be had in honour.

23 Na Saulo babea Mikal anwo ba da wɔ ne nkwa nna nyinaa.

Therfore Michal the daughter of Saul had no childe vnto the day of her death.
