< Chronicles I 13 >

1 And David took counsel with the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, [even with] every commander.
David se je posvetoval s poveljniki nad tisočimi in nad stotimi in z vsakim voditeljem.
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.
David je vsej Izraelovi skupnosti rekel: »Če se vam to zdi dobro in je to od Gospoda, našega Boga, pošljimo vsem našim bratom naokoli, ki so ostali v vsej Izraelovi deželi in z njimi tudi duhovnikom in Lévijevcem, ki so v njihovih mestih in predmestjih, da se bodo lahko zbrali k nam,
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.
in ponovno privedimo k sebi skrinjo našega Boga, kajti v Savlovih dneh nismo povpraševali po njej.«
4 And all the congregation said that they would do thus; for the saying was right in the eyes of all the people.
Vsa skupnost je rekla, da bodo tako storili, kajti stvar je bila pravilna v očeh vsega ljudstva.
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.
Tako je David zbral skupaj ves Izrael, od egiptovskega Šihórja, celo do vstopa v Hamát, da Božjo skrinjo privede iz Kirját Jearíma.
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].
David se je dvignil in ves Izrael v Baálo, to je v Kirját Jearím, ki pripada Judu, da od tam privede Božjo skrinjo Gospoda, ki prebiva med kerubi, katerega ime je imenovano na njej.
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.
Božjo skrinjo so odpeljali na novem vozu iz Abinadábove hiše. Uzá in Ahjó pa sta gnala voz.
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.
David in ves Izrael so igrali pred Bogom z vso svojo močjo, s petjem, harfami, plunkami, tamburini, cimbalami in trobentami.
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].
Ko so prišli na Kidónovo mlatišče, je Uzá iztegnil svojo roko, da pridrži skrinjo, kajti voli so se spotaknili.
10 And the Lord was very angry with Oza, and smote him there, because of his stretching forth his hand upon the ark: and he died there before God.
Gospodova jeza je bila vžgana zoper Uzá in ga je udaril, ker je svojo roko položil k skrinji in tam je umrl pred Bogom.
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.
David je bil razžaljen, ker je Gospod naredil vrzel nad Uzájem, zato je ta kraj do tega dne imenovan Perec Uzá.
12 And David feared God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God in to myself?
David se je tisti dan bal Boga, rekoč: »Kako naj Božjo skrinjo pripeljem k sebi domov?«
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.
Tako David skrinje ni pripeljal k sebi domov, v Davidovo mesto, temveč jo je odnesel stran, v hišo Gitéjca Obéd Edóma.
14 And the ark of God abode in the house of Abeddara three months: and God blessed Abeddara and all that he had.
Božja skrinja je ostala tri mesece z družino Obéd Edóma v njegovi hiši. Gospod je blagoslovil hišo Obéd Edóma in vse, kar je ta imel.
