2 Samuel 6

1 And David again gathered all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.

Na Dawid boaboaa akodɔm sononko ɔpeduasa ano.

2 And David arose and went with all the people that were with him from Baale-Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God which is called by the name, the name of Jehovah of hosts who sitteth between the cherubim.

Ɔdii wɔn anim firi Baala a ɛwɔ Yuda, sɛ wɔrekɔfa Onyankopɔn Adaka a ɛkura Awurade Otumfoɔ no a wɔde no asi Kerubim ntam no din.

3 And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was upon the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.

Wɔde Onyankopɔn Adaka no sii teaseɛnam foforɔ so, de firii Abinadab fie a na ɛwɔ bepɔ so no baeɛ. Usa ne Ahio a na wɔyɛ Abinadab mmammarima no na na wɔkyerɛ teaseɛnam foforɔ no

4 And they brought it with the ark of God out of the house of Abinadab which was upon the hill; and Ahio went before the ark.

a na Onyankopɔn Adaka no si mu no kwan. Na Ahio na ɔdi animu.

5 And David and all the house of Israel played before Jehovah on all manner of [instruments made of] cypress wood, with harps, and with lutes, and with tambours, and with sistra, and with cymbals.

Dawid ne Israel manfoɔ gyee wɔn ani wɔ Awurade anim wɔ ahoɔden so a wɔreto nnwom, na wɔde nsankuo, bɛnta, akasaeɛ, mfirikyiwa ne kyankyan nenam mu.

6 And when they came to Nachon's threshing-floor, Uzzah reached after the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen had stumbled.

Na wɔduruu Nakon ayuporobea no, nantwie no nan totoeɛ, maa Usa tenee ne nsa sɔɔ Onyankopɔn Adaka no mu sɛ ɔretene no.

7 And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.

Na Awurade bo fuu Usa sɛ ɔyɛɛ saa, na Onyankopɔn bɔɔ no, maa ɔwu daa adaka no ho.

8 And David was indignant, because Jehovah had made a breach upon Uzzah; and he called that place Perez-Uzzah to this day.

Dawid nso bo fuiɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade abufuo atia Usa. Ɔtoo saa beaeɛ hɔ edin Peres-Usa a aseɛ ne abufuhyeɛ a ɛtia Usa. Wɔfrɛ hɔ saa ara de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.

9 And David was afraid of Jehovah that day, and said, How shall the ark of Jehovah come to me?

Afei, na Dawid suro Awurade enti ɔbisaa sɛ, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na mɛtumi de Awurade adaka no aba me nkyɛn, na mahwɛ so?”

10 So David would not bring the ark of Jehovah home unto himself into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.

Na Dawid yɛɛ nʼadwene sɛ, ɔremma Awurade Adaka no so nkɔ Dawid Kuropɔn no mu. Na mmom, ɔmaa so de kɔɔ Obed-Edom a ɔyɛ Gatni fie.

11 And the ark of Jehovah remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months; and Jehovah blessed Obed-Edom and all his household.

Na Awurade adaka no sii Gatni Obed-Edom fiefoɔ nkyɛn abosome mmiɛnsa, na Awurade hyiraa no ne ne fidua mu nnipa nyinaa.

12 And it was told king David, saying, Jehovah has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that is his, because of the ark of God. And David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom into the city of David with joy.

Afei, wɔka kyerɛɛ ɔhene Dawid sɛ, “Esiane Awurade Adaka no enti, Awurade ahyira Obed-Edom fie ne biribiara a ɔwɔ so.” Enti, Dawid kɔɔ hɔ kɔfaa Adaka no, de osebɔ kɛseɛ baa Dawid Kuropɔn no mu.

13 And it was so, that when they that bore the ark of Jehovah had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatted beast.

Nnipa a Awurade Adaka no so wɔn no tuu anammɔn nsia pɛ, wɔgyinaa hɔ twɛneeɛ, sɛdeɛ Dawid bɛtumi de nantwie ne nantwie ba a wadɔre sradeɛ abɔ afɔdeɛ.

14 And David danced before Jehovah with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.

Na Dawid firii nʼahoɔden nyinaa mu saa wɔ Awurade anim a na ɔhyɛ asɔfotadeɛ yuu.

15 And David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.

Enti, Dawid ne Israel nyinaa de nteateam ne ntotorobɛntohyɛn maa Awurade Adaka no so kɔɔeɛ.

16 And as the ark of Jehovah came into the city of David, Michal the daughter of Saul looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before Jehovah; and she despised him in her heart.

Ɛberɛ a wɔde Awurade Adaka no rewura Dawid Kuropɔn no mu no, Saulo babaa a ne din de Mikal no kɔtɛɛ mpomma mu hwɛeɛ. Ɔhunuu sɛ ɔhene Dawid rehurihuri, resa anigyeɛ so wɔ Awurade anim no, nʼani annye.

17 And they brought in the ark of Jehovah, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had spread for it. And David offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before Jehovah.

Wɔde Awurade Adaka no kɔsii nʼafa wɔ ntomadan a ɛno enti, Dawid asi no mu, na Dawid bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ ne asomdwoeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ Awurade anim.

18 And when David had ended offering up the burnt-offerings and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Jehovah of hosts.

Ɔwieeɛ no, ɔhyiraa nnipa no wɔ Awurade Otumfoɔ din mu.

19 And he dealt to all the people, to the whole multitude of Israel, both men and women, to every one a cake of bread, and a measure [of wine], and a raisin-cake. And all the people departed every one to his house.

Afei, ɔmaa Israel dɔm no mu nnipa biara burodo mua, nankum ne bobe aba ɔfam. Na wɔn mu biara kɔɔ ne fie.

20 And David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How honourable did the king of Israel make himself to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the lewd fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!

Ɛberɛ a Dawid sane kɔɔ ne fie sɛ ɔrekɔhyira ne fiefoɔ no, Mikal firii adi ba bɛhyiaa no ka kyerɛɛ no abufuo so sɛ, “Ɛnnɛ deɛ, na Israelhene nsɛ ha! Ɔpaa ne ho kyerɛɛ ne mfenaa te sɛ deɛ obiara a ɔmmu ne ho bɛyɛ no ara pɛ.”

21 And David said to Michal, It was before Jehovah, who chose me rather than thy father, and than all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of Jehovah, over Israel; and I played before Jehovah.

Dawid buaa Mikal sɛ, “Na meresa wɔ Awurade a ɔyii me, na ɔtwaa wʼagya ne nʼabusuafoɔ gyaeɛ no anim. Ɔyii me sɛ menyɛ Israel a wɔyɛ Awurade nkurɔfoɔ ɔkannifoɔ. Ɛno enti, ɛyɛ me pɛ sɛ meyɛ me ho sɛ ɔkwasea, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛma makyerɛ mʼahokeka a mewɔ wɔ Awurade mu.

22 And I will make myself yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight; and of the handmaids that thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.

Aane, na mepɛ sɛ meyɛ ɔkwasea koraa sene yei, na mmaayewa korɔ yi ara a woreka wɔn ho asɛm yi bɛhyɛ me animuonyam.”

23 And Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.

Na Saulo babaa Mikal anwo ba da wɔ ne nkwa nna nyinaa.
