1 Chronicles 15
1 David made himself houses in David’s city; and he prepared a place for God’s ark, and pitched a tent for it.
Fez tambem casa para si na cidade de David; e preparou um logar para a arca de Deus, e armou-lhe uma tenda.
2 Then David said, “No one ought to carry God’s ark but the Levites. For the LORD has chosen them to carry God’s ark, and to minister to him forever.”
Então disse David: Ninguem pode levar a arca de Deus, senão os levitas; porque o Senhor os elegeu, para levar a arca de Deus, e para o servirem eternamente.
3 David assembled all Israel at Jerusalem, to bring up the LORD’s ark to its place, which he had prepared for it.
E David ajuntou a todo o Israel em Jerusalem, para fazerem subir a arca do Senhor ao seu logar, que lhe tinha preparado.
4 David gathered together the sons of Aaron and the Levites:
E David ajuntou os filhos de Aarão e os levitas.
5 of the sons of Kohath, Uriel the chief, and his brothers one hundred twenty;
Dos filhos de Kohath: Uriel, o principe, e de seus irmãos cento e vinte.
6 of the sons of Merari, Asaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred twenty;
Dos filhos de Merari: Asaias, o principe, e de seus irmãos duzentos e vinte.
7 of the sons of Gershom, Joel the chief, and his brothers one hundred thirty;
Dos filhos de Gersom: Joel, o principe, e de seus irmãos cento e trinta.
8 of the sons of Elizaphan, Shemaiah the chief, and his brothers two hundred;
Dos filhos de Elisaphan: Semaias o principe, e de seus irmãos duzentos.
9 of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief, and his brothers eighty;
Dos filhos de Hebron: Eliel, o principe, e de seus irmãos oitenta.
10 of the sons of Uzziel, Amminadab the chief, and his brothers one hundred twelve.
Dos filhos de Uziel: Amminadab, o principe, e de seus irmãos cento e doze.
11 David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites: for Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab,
E chamou David os sacerdotes Zadok e Abiathar, e os levitas, Uriel, Asaias, Joel, Semaias, Eliel, e Amminadab;
12 and said to them, “You are the heads of the fathers’ households of the Levites. Sanctify yourselves, both you and your brothers, that you may bring the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel, up to the place that I have prepared for it.
E disse-lhes: Vós sois os chefes dos paes entre os levitas: sanctificae-vos, vós e vossos irmãos, para que façaes subir a arca do Senhor, Deus de Israel, ao logar que lhe tenho preparado.
13 For because you did not carry it at first, the LORD our God broke out in anger against us, because we did not seek him according to the ordinance.”
Pois que, porquanto primeiro vós assim o não fizestes, o Senhor fez rotura em nós, porque o não buscámos segundo a ordenança.
14 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD, the God of Israel.
Sanctificaram-se pois os sacerdotes e levitas, para fazerem subir a arca do Senhor Deus de Israel.
15 The children of the Levites bore God’s ark on their shoulders with its poles, as Moses commanded according to the LORD’s word.
E os filhos dos levitas trouxeram a arca de Deus aos hombros, como Moysés tinha ordenado, conforme a palavra do Senhor, com as varas que tinham sobre si.
16 David spoke to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brothers as singers with instruments of music, stringed instruments, harps, and cymbals, sounding aloud and lifting up their voices with joy.
E disse David aos principes dos levitas que constituissem a seus irmãos, os cantores, com instrumentos musicos, com alaudes, harpas e cymbalos, para que se fizessem ouvir, levantando a voz com alegria.
17 So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brothers, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brothers, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;
Ordenaram pois os levitas a Heman, filho de Joel; e dos seus irmãos, a Asaph, filho de Berechias, e dos filhos de Merari, seus irmãos, a Ethan, filho de Kusaias.
18 and with them their brothers of the second rank: Zechariah, Ben, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, the doorkeepers.
E com elles a seus irmãos da segunda ordem: a Zacharias, Ben, e Jaaziel, e Semiramoth, e Jehiel, e Uni, Eliab, e Benaias, e Maaseias, e Mattithias, e Eliphelehu, e Mikneias, e Obed-edom, e Jeiel, os porteiros.
19 So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were given cymbals of bronze to sound aloud;
E os cantores, Heman, Asaph e Ethan, se faziam ouvir com cymbalos de metal;
20 and Zechariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with stringed instruments set to Alamoth;
E Zacharias, e Aziel, e Semiramoth, e Jehiel, e Uni, e Eliab, e Maaseias, e Benaias, com alaudes, sobre Alamoth:
21 and Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps tuned to the eight-stringed lyre, to lead.
E Mattithias e Eliphelehu, e Mikneias, e Obed-edom, e Jeiel, e Azazias, com harpas, sobre Seminith, para esforçar o tom.
22 Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was over the singing. He taught the singers, because he was skillful.
E Chenanias, principe dos levitas, tinha cargo de entoar o canto; ensinava-os a entoal-o, porque era entendido.
23 Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.
E Berechias e Elkana eram porteiros da arca.
24 Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, blew the trumpets before God’s ark; and Obed-Edom and Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark.
E Sebanias, e Josaphat, e Nethaneel, e Amasai, e Zacharias, e Benaias, e Eliezer, os sacerdotes, tocavam as trombetas perante a arca de Deus: e Obed-edom e Jehias eram porteiros da arca.
25 So David, the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands went to bring the ark of the LORD’s covenant up out of the house of Obed-Edom with joy.
Succedeu pois que David e os anciãos d'Israel, e os capitães dos milhares, foram para fazer subir a arca do concerto do Senhor, da casa de Obed-edom, com alegria.
26 When God helped the Levites who bore the ark of the LORD’s covenant, they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.
E succedeu que, ajudando Deus os levitas que levavam a arca do concerto do Senhor, sacrificaram sete novilhos e sete carneiros.
27 David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, as were all the Levites who bore the ark, the singers, and Chenaniah the choir master with the singers; and David had an ephod of linen on him.
E David ia vestido de um roupão de linho fino, como tambem todos os levitas que levavam a arca, e os cantores, e Chenanias, chefe dos que levavam a arca e dos cantores; tambem David levava sobre si um ephod de linho.
28 Thus all Israel brought the ark of the LORD’s covenant up with shouting, with sound of the cornet, with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding aloud with stringed instruments and harps.
E todo o Israel fez subir a arca do concerto do Senhor, com jubilo, e com sonido de buzinas, e com trombetas, e com cymbalos, fazendo sonido com alaudes e com harpas.
29 As the ark of the LORD’s covenant came to David’s city, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.
E succedeu que, chegando a arca do concerto do Senhor á cidade de David, Michal, a filha de Saul, olhou d'uma janella, e, vendo a David dançar e tocar, o desprezou no seu coração.
