1 Setouknae 13
1 Devit ni kahrawikungnaw pueng koe, 1, 000 kaukkungnaw hoi, 100 touh kaukkungnaw koe pouknae a hei.
And David took counsel with the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, [even with] every commander.
2 Devit ni kamkhueng e Isarelnaw koe, ahawi na tet awh boilah, BAWIPA Cathut a ngainae awm pawiteh, Isarel ram thung e hmaunawngha kaawm e naw pueng, tengpam e kho kaawm e pueng, vaihmanaw hoi Levih taminaw hai maimouh koe cungtalah kamkhueng hanelah, coun awh sei atipouh.
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.
3 Cathut e thingkong hah maimouh koe bankhai awh sei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Sawl a bawi hoi teh, a lawkpui lah pouk awh hoeh toe telah ati.
And let us bring over to us the ark of our God; for men have not enquired [at] it since the days of Saul.
4 Kamkhueng e pueng ni hottelah sak e hah hnâ rip a bo khai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hot teh tami pueng pouknae dawk ka kalan e doeh.
And all the congregation said that they would do thus; for the saying was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 Hatdawkvah, Devit ni Izip palang Shihor, hoi Hamath kâennae totouh Isarelnaw hah Kiriathjeaream e Cathut e thingkong hah bankhai hanelah a kamkhueng sak awh.
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.
6 Hatdawkvah, Devit hoi tami pueng teh, Judah ram e Baalah Kiriath-Jeaream ati awh e koevah, cherubim dawkvah, ka tahung e BAWIPA min a onae lawkkam thing kong la hanelah a cei awh.
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].
7 Cathut e thingkong teh, Abinadab im e hah leng ka tha hoi a ceikhai awh. Uzzah hoi a hui ni leng teh a mawng.
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.
8 Devit hoi Isarelnaw pueng ni la sak na laihoi ratoung hoi tamawi hoi mawngleng hoi cecak hoi mongka hoi Cathut hmalah a thaonae puenghoi a tumkhawng awh.
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.
9 Kidron cangkatinnae koe a pha awh navah, maitonaw ni thingkong a kâhuet sak dawkvah, Uzzah ni thingkong hah kuet hanelah a kut a kâyap.
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].
10 BAWIPA e lungkhueknae teh Uzzah tak dawk vai touh hoi a pha teh, thingkong a kuet kecu dawkvah a thei teh, Cathut hanlah a due.
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.
11 Uzzah tak dawk BAWIPA e lungkhueknae a pha dawkvah, Devit teh a lungkhuek. Hote hmuen teh sahnin totouh Perezuzzah telah a phung awh.
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.
12 Hat na hnin hoi Devit ni Cathut teh a taki. Bangtelah hoi maw Cathut e thingkong teh ka bankhai thai han telah ati.
And David feared God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God in to myself?
13 Devit ni thingkong teh Devit khopui a ma koe hrueng laipalah Git tami Obededom im vah a hruek.
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.
14 Cathut e thingkong teh Git tami Obededom imthung vah thapa yung thapa yung thum touh ao. Obededom e a tawn e naw pueng teh BAWIPA ni yawhawinae a poe.
And the ark of God abode in the house of Abeddara three months: and God blessed Abeddara and all that he had.
