وَشَاوَرَ دَاوُدُ قُوَّادَ ٱلْأُلُوفِ وَٱلْمِئَاتِ وَكُلَّ رَئِيسٍ. ١ 1
And David took counsel with the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, [even with] every commander.
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 the whole congregation of Israel, If it [seem] good to you, and it should be prospered by the Lord our God, let us send to our brethren that are left in all the land of Israel, and let the priests the Levites who are with them in the cities of their possession [come], and let them be gathered to us.
فَنُرْجِعَ تَابُوتَ إِلَهِنَا إِلَيْنَا لِأَنَّنَا لَمْ نَسْأَلْ بِهِ فِي أَيَّامِ شَاوُلَ». ٣ 3
And let us bring over to us the ark of our God; for men have not enquired [at] it since the days of Saul.
فَقَالَ كُلُّ ٱلْجَمَاعَةِ بِأَنْ يَفْعَلُوا ذَلِكَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْأَمْرَ حَسُنَ فِي أَعْيُنِ جَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. ٤ 4
And all the congregation said that they would do thus; for the saying 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, from the borders of Egypt even to the entering in of Hemath, to bring in the ark of God from the city of Jarim.
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 brought it up: and all Israel went up to the city of David, which belonged to Juda, to bring up thence the ark of the Lord God who sits between the cherubim, whose name is called [on it].
وَأَرْكَبُوا تَابُوتَ ٱللهِ عَلَى عَجَلَةٍ جَدِيدَةٍ مِنْ بَيْتِ أَبِينَادَابَ، وَكَانَ عُزَّا وَأَخِيُو يَسُوقَانِ ٱلْعَجَلَةَ، ٧ 7
And they set the ark of God on a new waggon [brought] out of the house of Aminadab: and Oza and his brethren drove the waggon.
وَدَاوُدُ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ يَلْعَبُونَ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ بِكُلِّ عِزٍّ وَبِأَغَانِيَّ وَعِيدَانٍ وَرَبَابٍ وَدُفُوفٍ وَصُنُوجٍ وَأَبْوَاقٍ. ٨ 8
And David and all Israel [were] playing before the Lord with all their might, and [that] together with singers, and with harps, and with lutes, with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.
وَلَمَّا ٱنْتَهَوْا إِلَى بَيْدَرِ كِيدُونَ، مَدَّ عُزَّا يَدَهُ لِيُمْسِكَ ٱلتَّابُوتَ، لِأَنَّ ٱلثِّيرَانَ ٱنْشَمَصَتْ. ٩ 9
And they came as far as the threshing floor: and Oza put forth his hand to hold the ark, because the bullock moved it from [its place].
فَحَمِيَ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى عُزَّا وَضَرَبَهُ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّهُ مَدَّ يَدَهُ إِلَى ٱلتَّابُوتِ، فَمَاتِ هُنَاكَ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ. ١٠ 10
And the Lord was very angry with Oza, and struck him there, because of his stretching forth his hand upon the ark: and he died there before God.
فَٱغْتَاظَ دَاوُدُ لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱقْتَحَمَ عُزَّا ٱقْتِحَامًا، وَسَمَّى ذَلِكَ ٱلْمَوْضِعَ «فَارَصَ عُزَّا» إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. ١١ 11
And David was dispirited, because the Lord [had] made a breach on Oza: and he called that place the Breach of Oza until this day.
وَخَافَ دَاوُدُ ٱللهَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَائِلًا: «كَيْفَ آتِي بِتَابُوتِ ٱللهِ إِلَيَّ؟». ١٢ 12
And David feared God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God in to myself?
وَلَمْ يَنْقُلْ دَاوُدُ ٱلتَّابُوتَ إِلَيْهِ إِلَى مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، بَلْ مَالَ بِهِ إِلَى بَيْتِ عُوبِيدَ أَدُومَ ٱلْجَتِّيِّ. ١٣ 13
So David brought not the ark home to himself into the city of David, but he turned it aside into the house of Abeddara the Gethite.
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 abode in the house of Abeddara three months: and God blessed Abeddara and all that he had.
