1 Istwa 13

1 Alò, David te fè konsèy ansanm avèk kapitèn a dè milye a dè santèn, menm avèk chak chèf.

And David took counsel with the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, [even with] every commander.

2 David te di a tout asanble Israël la: “Si li sanble bon a nou menm e si li soti nan SENYÈ a, Bondye nou an, annou voye toupatou mesaje a fanmi pa nou ki rete nan peyi Israël yo e osi, a prèt avèk Levit ki avèk yo nan vil pa yo, avèk teren pa yo, pou yo kapab reyini ansanm avèk nou.

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 Konsa, annou pote tounen lach Bondye pa nou an, paske nan jou Saül yo, nou pa t chache li.”

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 Alò, tout asanble a te di ke yo ta fè l, paske bagay la te bon nan zye a tout pèp la.

And all the congregation said that they would do thus; for the saying was right in the eyes of all the people.

5 Konsa, David te rasanble tout Israël ansanm, soti nan Sichor nan Egypte jis rive nan antre Hamath, pou pote lach Bondye a soti Kirjath-Jearim.

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 David avèk tout Israël te monte Baalah, sa vle di nan Kirjath-Jearim, ki apatyen a Juda, pou pote monte soti la, lach Bondye a, SENYÈ a, ki sou twòn li antre cheriben yo, kote non Li ap rele a.

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 Yo te pote lach Bondye a sou yon kabwèt nèf soti lakay Abinadab, Uzza avèk Achjo te kondwi kabwèt la.

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 David avèk tout Israël t ap selebre devan Bondye avèk tout fòs yo, menm avèk chan, avèk gita yo, ap yo, tanbouren yo, senbal yo ak twonpèt yo.

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 Lè yo te rive nan glasi vannen an nan Cidon, Uzza te lonje men l pou bay soutyen a lach la akoz bèf yo te prèt pou chavire l.

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 Lakòlè SENYÈ a te brile kont Uzza e Li te frape li akoz li te lonje men l vè lach la; epi li te mouri la devan Bondye.

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 Konsa, David te vin fache akoz kòlè SENYÈ a te pete kont Uzza. Li te rele plas sa a Pérets-Uzza jis rive jodi a.

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 David te krent Bondye nan jou sa a, epi te di: “Kijan mwen kapab pote lach Bondye lakay mwen?”

And David feared God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God in to myself?

13 Pou sa, David pa t pran lach la avèk li lavil David, men te pran l sou kote kay Obed-Édom an nan Gath.

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 Konsa, lach Bondye a te rete avèk fanmi a Obed-Édom lakay li pandan twa mwa. Epi SENYÈ a te beni fanmi Obed-Édom an avèk tout sa li te genyen.

And the ark of God abode in the house of Abeddara three months: and God blessed Abeddara and all that he had.
