< 2 Samuel 6 >

1 David mah qoih ih Israel kami sang quithumtonawk loe ahmuen maeto ah amkhuengsak.
And David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 Cherubim salakah kaom, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng ahmin hoiah kawk ih, Angraeng ih thingkhong to Judah prae Baale vangpui hoiah aput hanah, David loe angthawk moe, angmah khaeah kaom kaminawk hoi nawnto a caeh.
And David arose, and went with all the people who were with him to Baalah, that is, Kiriath Jearim of Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called there by the name of the LORD of hosts enthroned on the cherubim.
3 Sithaw ih thingkhong to maitaw leeng kangtha nuiah suek o moe, Gibeah, tiah kawk ih mae nuiah kaom Abinadab ih im hoiah aput o; Abinadab capa Uzzah hoi Ahio mah, maitaw leeng to mongh hoi.
And they set the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was on the hill. And Uzza and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, guided the cart
4 Sithaw ih thingkhong to mae nui ih Abinadab im hoiah a phawh o; to naah Ahio loe Sithaw ih thingkhong hmaa ah caeh.
with the ark; and Ahio was walking in front of the ark.
5 To naah David hoi Israel imthung takohnawk boih mah hmaica thing hoiah sak ih katoeng congca, satuem, monglaeng, cingcengnawk hoiah Angraeng hmaa ah laasak o.
And David and all the children of Israel played before the LORD with all their strength and with songs, and with harps, and with stringed instruments, and with tambourines, and with castanets, and with cymbals.
6 Nakon ih cang atithaih ahmuen phak o naah loe, maitaw mah Sithaw ih thingkhong to ahoek pongah, Uzzah mah ban payangh moe, Sithaw thingkhong to sui.
And when they came to the threshing floor of Nodan, Uzza reached out his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the cattle stumbled.
7 Angraeng loe Uzzah nuiah paroeai palungphui; a sakpazaehaih pongah Sithaw mah anih to hum, anih loe Sithaw ih thingkhong taengah duek sut.
And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza; and God struck him there for his error; and there he died before God.
8 Sithaw mah Uzzah to danpaek pongah, David loe poeknawm ai; to pongah vaihni khoek to to ahmuen to Perez-Uzzah, tiah kawk o.
And David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth on Uzza; and he called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
9 David loe to na niah Angraeng to zit pongah, Angraeng ih thingkhong to kawbangmaw kaimah khaeah ka sin thai han? tiah a thuih.
And David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, "How can the ark of God come to me?" Now the ark of the LORD arrived,
10 David loe angmah ih David vangpui thungah Angraeng ih thingkhong to phaw ai; Gath kami Obed-Edom im ah caeh haih ving.
but David was not willing to move the ark of the LORD with him to the City of David; so David diverted it to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.
11 Angraeng ih thingkhong loe Obed-Edom im ah khrah thumto thung oh; to naah Angraeng mah Obed-Edom hoi anih ih imthung takoh kaminawk boih to tahamhoihaih paek.
And the ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months, and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
12 Sithaw ih thingkhong pongah, Obed-Edom hoi a imthung takohnawk boih Angraeng mah tahamhoihaih paek ti, tiah David siangpahrang khaeah thuih pae o. To pongah David loe caeh tathuk moe, Sithaw thingkhong to Obed-Edom im hoiah David vangpui thungah anghoehaih hoiah phawh let.
And it was told king David, saying, "The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him because of the ark of God." And David said, "I will bring back the blessing to my house." And David went and brought up the ark of the LORD from the house of Obed-Edom into the City of David with joy.
13 Angraeng ih thingkhong kapu kaminawk mah khok tangkan tarukto takan o pacoengah, maitaw tae maeto hoi kathawk maitaw caanawk to angbawnhaih ah a sak.
And it was so, that, when those who bore the ark of the LORD had gone six steps, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 David loe rong kangpha puu kahni to angkhuk pacoengah, Angraeng hmaa ah tha pathoh moe, hnawh.
And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was clothed in a linen ephod.
15 To naah David hoi Israel imthung takohnawk loe, Angraeng ih thingkhong to hanghaih hoi mongkah lok hoiah aput o tahang.
So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 Angraeng ih thingkhong David vangpui thungah akun naah, Saul canu Mikal mah tapang khaw thung hoiah a bih; Angraeng hmaa ah angphet hoi kahnawh David siangpahrang to a hnuk naah, anih mah Daivid to palung thung hoiah khet patoek.
Now, as the ark of the LORD was entering into the City of David, Mikal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.
17 Angraeng ih thingkhong to phawh o moe, David mah to thingkhong suek hanah sakcoek ih kahni imthung ah a suek o; to naah David mah hmai angbawnhaih hoi angdaeh angbawnhaih to Angraeng hmaa ah sak.
And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had set up for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
18 David mah hmai angbawnhaih hoi angdaeh angbawnhaih paek pacoengah, misatuh kaminawk ih Angraeng Sithaw hmin hoiah kaminawk to tahamhoihaih paek.
And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.
19 To pacoengah nongpa nongpata tih ai, Israel kaminawk boih hanah, takaw kae maeto, moi tetta hoi misurthaih kazaek to paek. To pacoengah kaminawk loe angmacae im ah amlaem o.
And he gave to all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to everyone a portion of bread, a date cake, and a raisin cake. So all the people departed everyone to his house.
20 Angmah ih imthung takoh tahamhoihaih paek hanah, David loe im ah amlaem. Saul canu Mikal loe David khet hanah angzoh moe, anih khaeah, Vaihniah Israel siangpahrang loe kawkrukmaw lensawk; tidoeh na ai kami rumram mah azathaih tawn ai ah a khukbuen to angkhring baktih toengah, a tamna nongpatanawk hmaa ah anih doeh khukbuen angkhring toeng, tiah a naa.
And then David returned to bless his household. Mikal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David. And she greeted him, and said, "How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself."
21 David mah Mikal khaeah, Nam pa hoi anih ih imthung takohnawk boih hmaa ah Angraeng mah ang qoih, anih mah ni kai hae Angraeng ih Israel kaminawk ukkung ah ohsak. To pongah Angraeng hmaa ah ka kawnh.
And David said to Mikal, "I was dancing before the LORD. Blessed be the LORD, who chose me above your father, and above all his house, to appoint me prince over the people of the LORD, over Israel; therefore I will celebrate before the LORD.
22 Hae hmuen pongah azat ai ah ka oh moe, poek pahnaemhaih hoiah ka oh han; na thuih ih tamna nongpatanawk mah kai na pakoeh o aep tih, tiah a naa.
And I will be yet more vile than this, and will be lowly in your eyes. But of the handmaids of whom you have spoken, they shall honor me."
23 To pongah Saul canu Mikal loe, duek khoek to caa sah ai ah oh.
And Mikal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
