2 Samuel 6
1 David loh hlang boeih a coi tih Israel khuikah te thawng sawmthum a coelh.
David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2 Te phoeiah caempuei BOEIPA ming la a ming a khue tih a soah Cherub loh a ngol thil, Pathen thingkawng te te lamloh Baale-Judah la khuen ham David te hlah uh tih amah taengkah pilnam te boeih a caeh puei.
David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Baale Judah, to bring up from there God’s ark, which is called by the Name, even the name of the LORD of Armies who sits above the cherubim.
3 Pathen thingkawng te leng a thai dongah a hol uh tih som kah Abinadab im lamloh a khuen uh. Te vaengah leng a thai te Abinadab capa Uzzah neh Ahio loh a hmaithawn.
They set God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house that was on the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.
4 Som kah Abinadab im lamloh Pathen thingkawng a khuen uh vaengah te Ahio te thingkawng hmai ah cet.
They brought it out of Abinadab’s house which was in the hill, with God’s ark; and Ahio went before the ark.
5 David neh Israel imkhui pum loh BOEIPA kah mikhmuh ah hmaical thing, rhotoeng, thangpa, kamrhing, tingkoei, tlaklak neh boeih luem uh.
David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD with all kinds of instruments made of cypress wood, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with castanets, and with cymbals.
6 Nakhawn a pha uh vaengah vaito loh a soek uh hatah Pathen kah thingkawng te Uzzah loh a cuk thil tih a tuuk.
When they came to the threshing floor of Nacon, Uzzah reached for God’s ark and took hold of it, for the cattle stumbled.
7 Te vaengah BOEIPA kah a thintoek te vik sai. Te dongah Uzzah te Pathen loh pahoi a ngawn. A lolhnah a om dongah Pathen kah thingkawng taengah pahoi duek.
The LORD’s anger burnt against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by God’s ark.
8 BOEIPA loh Uzzah puut te a va dongah David lungoe. Te dongah tekah hmuen te ti hnin due Perezuzzah la a khue.
David was displeased because the LORD had broken out against Uzzah; and he called that place Perez Uzzah to this day.
9 Te khohnin vaengah David loh BOEIPA te a rhih coeng tih, “BOEIPA kah thingkawng loh kai taengah ha pawk thai aya?” a ti.
David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, “How could the LORD’s ark come to me?”
10 BOEIPA thingkawng te David khopuei ah amah taengla khuen ham David loh huem pawh. Tedae David loh Ghitti Obededom im la a thak.
So David would not move the LORD’s ark to be with him in David’s city; but David carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
11 BOEIPA thingkawng tah Ghitti Obededom im ah hla thum yalh. Te vaengah Obededom neh a imkhui pum te BOEIPA loh yoe a then sak.
The LORD’s ark remained in Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house three months; and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom and all his house.
12 Te dongah manghai David taengla puen uh tih, “BOEIPA loh Pathen kah thingkawng kongah Obededom imkhui neh a taeng om boeih te yoe a then sak,” a ti nah. Te daengah David te suntla tih Pathen thingkawng te Obededom im lamloh David Khopuei la kohoenah neh a khuen.
King David was told, “The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that belongs to him, because of God’s ark.” So David went and brought up God’s ark from the house of Obed-Edom into David’s city with joy.
13 BOEIPA thingkawng aka kawt rhoek te kan rhuk a kan phoeiah tah vaito a puetsuet te a ngawn thil.
When those who bore the LORD’s ark had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fattened calf.
14 David khaw a sarhi boeih neh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah lam. Te vaengah David loh takhlawk hnisui te a vah.
David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was clothed in a linen ephod.
15 David neh Israel imkhui tom loh BOEIPA thingkawng te tamlung neh, tuki ol neh a caeh puei uh.
So David and all the house of Israel brought up the LORD’s ark with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet.
16 BOEIPA thingkawng te David khopuei khuila a pawk vaengah Saul canu Mikhal loh bangbuet lamkah a dan. Te vaengah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah manghai David soipet tih a lam te a hmuh. Te dongah anih te a lungbuei khuiah a sawtsit.
As the LORD’s ark came into David’s city, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out through the window and saw King David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.
17 BOEIPA thingkawng te David loh a tuk dap khui la a khuen uh tih amah hmuen ah a khueh uh. Te phoeiah hmueihhlutnah neh rhoepnah hmueih te David loh BOEIPA mikhmuh ah a khuen.
They brought in the LORD’s ark, and set it in its place in the middle of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
18 Hmueihhlutnah neh rhoepnah hmueih a tloeng te a coeng phoeiah tah pilnam te David loh caempuei BOEIPA ming neh yoethen a paek.
When David had finished offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of Armies.
19 Israel hlangping boeih khuikah pilnam boeih te huta khaw tongpa khaw, hlang pakhat rhip taengah, vaidam laep, buhham neh maehcaeng pakhat, yukhap rhip a tael. Te phoeiah pilnam boeih te amah im la boeih cet uh.
He gave to all the people, even amongst the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to everyone a portion of bread, dates, and raisins. So all the people departed, each to his own house.
20 A imkhui te yoethen paek ham David a mael vaengah Saul canu Mikhal te David doe ham ha thawn uh tih, “Israel manghai tihnin ah bahoeng a thangpom a! A salnu salpa mikhmuh ah tihnin ah a hni a pit he, a hong bangla a hni a pit khaw a pit rhoe he,” a ti nah.
Then David returned to bless his household. Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, “How glorious the king of Israel was today, who uncovered himself today in the eyes of his servants’ maids, as one of the vain fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!”
21 David loh Mikhal te BOEIPA mikhmuh ah, “Kai he tah na pa lakah khaw, a imkhui boeih lamkah long khaw amah long ni n'tuek. Kai he BOEIPA kah pilnam so neh, Israel soah rhaengsang la ng'uen dongah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah ka luem ni ta.
David said to Michal, “It was before 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 He lakah muep ka tahoeng vetih ka mikhmuh ah tlarhoel la ka om ni. Tedae salnu na thui rhoek long te kai n'thangpom bitni,” a ti nah.
I will be yet more undignified than this, and will be worthless in my own sight. But the maids of whom you have spoken will honour me.”
23 Te dongah Saul canu Mikhal tah a dueknah hnin hil a taengah camoe om pawh.
Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
