وَشَاوَرَ دَاوُدُ قُوَّادَ ٱلْأُلُوفِ وَٱلْمِئَاتِ وَكُلَّ رَئِيسٍ. ١ 1
And David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, even with every leader.
وَقَالَ دَاوُدُ لِكُلِّ جَمَاعَةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: «إِنْ حَسُنَ عِنْدَكُمْ وَكَانَ ذَلِكَ مِنَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِنَا، فَلْنُرْسِلْ إِلَى كُلِّ جِهَةٍ، إِلَى إِخْوَتِنَا ٱلْبَاقِينَ فِي كُلِّ أَرَاضِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَمَعَهُمُ ٱلْكَهَنَةُ وَٱللَّاوِيُّونَ فِي مُدُنِ مَسَارِحِهِمْ لِيَجْتَمِعُوا إِلَيْنَا، ٢ 2
And David said to all the assembly of Israel, If it seems good to you, and if it be of Jehovah our God, let us send abroad everywhere to our brothers who are left in all the land of Israel, with whom the priests and Levites are in their cities that have suburbs, that they may gather themselves to us.
فَنُرْجِعَ تَابُوتَ إِلَهِنَا إِلَيْنَا لِأَنَّنَا لَمْ نَسْأَلْ بِهِ فِي أَيَّامِ شَاوُلَ». ٣ 3
And let us bring again the ark of our God to us, for we did not inquire from it in the days of Saul.
فَقَالَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ بِأَنْ يَفْعَلُوا ذَلِكَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَمْرَ حَسُنَ فِي أَعْيُنِ جَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. ٤ 4
And all the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
وَجَمَعَ دَاوُدُ كُلَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ شِيحُورِ مِصْرَ إِلَى مَدْخَلِ حَمَاةَ لِيَأْتُوا بِتَابُوتِ ٱللهِ مِنْ قَرْيَةِ يَعَارِيمَ. ٥ 5
So David assembled all Israel together, from the Shihor the brook of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.
وَصَعِدَ دَاوُدُ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى بَعْلَةَ، إِلَى قَرْيَةِ يَعَارِيمَ ٱلَّتِي لِيَهُوذَا، لِيُصْعِدُوا مِنْ هُنَاكَ تَابُوتَ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْجَالِسِ عَلَى ٱلْكَرُوبِيمَ ٱلَّذِي دُعِيَ بِٱلِٱسْمِ. ٦ 6
And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, that is to Kiriath-jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, Jehovah who sits above the cherubim that is called by the Name.
وَأَرْكَبُوا تَابُوتَ ٱللهِ عَلَى عَجَلَةٍ جَدِيدَةٍ مِنْ بَيْتِ أَبِينَادَابَ، وَكَانَ عُزَّا وَأَخِيُو يَسُوقَانِ ٱلْعَجَلَةَ، ٧ 7
And they carried the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab. And Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
وَدَاوُدُ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ يَلْعَبُونَ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ بِكُلِّ عِزٍّ وَبِأَغَانِيَّ وَعِيدَانٍ وَرَبَابٍ وَدُفُوفٍ وَصُنُوجٍ وَأَبْوَاقٍ. ٨ 8
And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, even with songs, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
وَلَمَّا ٱنْتَهَوْا إِلَى بَيْدَرِ كِيدُونَ، مَدَّ عُزَّا يَدَهُ لِيُمْسِكَ ٱلتَّابُوتَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلثِّيرَانَ ٱنْشَمَصَتْ. ٩ 9
And when they came to the threshing-floor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled.
فَحَمِيَ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى عُزَّا وَضَرَبَهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ مَدَّ يَدَهُ إِلَى ٱلتَّابُوتِ، فَمَاتِ هُنَاكَ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ. ١٠ 10
And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him because he put forth his hand to the ark. And there he died before God.
فَٱغْتَاظَ دَاوُدُ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱقْتَحَمَ عُزَّا ٱقْتِحَامًا، وَسَمَّى ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعَ «فَارَصَ عُزَّا» إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ١١ 11
And David was displeased, because Jehovah had broken forth upon Uzza. And he called that place Perez-uzza, to this day.
وَخَافَ دَاوُدُ ٱللهَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَائِلًا: «كَيْفَ آتِي بِتَابُوتِ ٱللهِ إِلَيَّ؟». ١٢ 12
And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God home to me?
وَلَمْ يَنْقُلْ دَاوُدُ ٱلتَّابُوتَ إِلَيْهِ إِلَى مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، بَلْ مَالَ بِهِ إِلَى بَيْتِ عُوبِيدَ أَدُومَ ٱلْجَتِّيِّ. ١٣ 13
So David did not move the ark to him into the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
وَبَقِيَ تَابُوتُ ٱللهِ عِنْدَ بَيْتِ عُوبِيدَ أَدُومَ فِي بَيْتِهِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْهُرٍ. وَبَارَكَ ٱلرَّبُّ بَيْتَ عُوبِيدَ أَدُومَ وَكُلَّ مَا لَهُ. ١٤ 14
And the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house three months. And Jehovah blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that he had.
