1 Chronicles 15
1 And [David] made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.
Daudi aarĩkia gwaka nyũmba ciake mwene kũu Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi, nĩahaarĩirie handũ ha kũiga ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai, na akĩrĩambĩra hema.
2 Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them hath the LORD chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister unto him for ever.
Ningĩ Daudi akiuga atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩ wagĩrĩirwo nĩ gũkuua ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai tiga o Alawii, tondũ nĩo Jehova aathuurire makuuage ithandũkũ rĩu rĩa Jehova na mamũtungatagĩre nginya tene.”
3 And David gathered all Israel together to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD unto his place, which he had prepared for it.
Daudi nĩacookanĩrĩirie andũ othe a Isiraeli hamwe kũu Jerusalemu nĩguo marehe ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova handũ harĩa aarĩthondekeire.
4 And David assembled the children of Aaron, and the Levites:
Nĩacookanĩrĩirie njiaro cia Harũni na Alawii ta ũũ:
5 Of the sons of Kohath; Uriel the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twenty:
Kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Kohathu, Urieli nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 120;
6 Of the sons of Merari; Asaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty:
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Merari, Asaia nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 220;
7 Of the sons of Gershom; Joel the chief, and his brethren an hundred and thirty:
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Gerishoni, Joeli nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 130;
8 Of the sons of Elizaphan; Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred:
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Elizafani, Shemaia nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 200;
9 Of the sons of Hebron; Eliel the chief, and his brethren fourscore:
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Hebironi, Elieli nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 80;
10 Of the sons of Uzziel; Amminadab the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twelve.
kuuma kũrĩ njiaro cia Uzieli, Aminadabu nĩwe warĩ mũtongoria, na andũ a nyũmba yao 112.
11 And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,
Ningĩ Daudi agĩĩta Zadoku na Abiatharu arĩa athĩnjĩri-Ngai, na Urieli, na Asaia, na Joeli, na Shemaia, na Elieli, na Aminadabu arĩa Alawii.
12 And said unto them, Ye [are] the chief of the fathers of the Levites: sanctify yourselves, [both] ye and your brethren, that ye may bring up the ark of the LORD God of Israel unto [the place that] I have prepared for it.
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩ inyuĩ anene a nyũmba cia Alawii; inyuĩ ene na Alawii arĩa angĩ no nginya mwĩtherie na mwambatie ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli nginya handũ harĩa ndĩrĩthondekeire.
13 For because ye [did it] not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order.
Nĩ ũndũ inyuĩ, Alawii, mũtiarĩambatirie ihinda rĩa mbere, nĩkĩo Jehova Ngai witũ aatũũkĩrĩire na marakara. Tũtiigana gũtuĩria ũhoro wa ũrĩa tũngĩekire kũrĩ we, kũringana na ũrĩa gwatuĩtwo.”
14 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the LORD God of Israel.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, athĩnjĩri-Ngai na Alawii magĩĩtheria nĩgeetha maambatie ithandũkũ rĩa Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli.
15 And the children of the Levites bare the ark of God upon their shoulders with the staves thereon, as Moses commanded according to the word of the LORD.
Nao Alawii magĩkuua ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai na mĩtĩ mĩraaya mamĩigĩrĩire ciande, o ta ũrĩa Musa aathanĩte kũringana na kiugo kĩa Jehova.
16 And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren [to be] the singers with instruments of musick, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the voice with joy.
Daudi akĩĩra atongoria a Alawii mathuure ariũ a ithe wao matuĩke aini, nao maine nyĩmbo cia gĩkeno makĩhũũraga inanda cia kĩnũbi, na cia mũgeeto, na thaani iria ihũũrithanagio ikagamba.
17 So the Levites appointed Heman the son of Joel; and of his brethren, Asaph the son of Berechiah; and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan the son of Kushaiah;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Alawii magĩthuura Hemani mũrũ wa Joeli; kuuma harĩ ariũ a ithe, na magĩthuura Asafu mũrũ wa Berekia; na kuuma harĩ ariũ a ithe Amerari magĩthuura Ethani mũrũ wa Kushaia;
18 And with them their brethren of the second [degree], Zechariah, Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, the porters.
na ningĩ hamwe nao magĩthuura ariũ a ithe matuĩke anini ao wathani-inĩ. nao nĩ: Zekaria, na Jaazieli, na Shemiramothu, na Jehieli, na Uni, na Eliabu, na Benaia, na Maaseia, na Matithia, na Elifelehu, na Mikineia, na Obedi-Edomu, na Jeieli, arĩa arangĩri ihingo.
19 So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, [were appointed] to sound with cymbals of brass;
Hemani, na Asafu na Ethani maarĩ aini na maahũũrithanagia thaani cia gĩcango;
20 And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries on Alamoth;
Zekaria, na Azieli, na Shemiramothu, na Jehieli, na Uni, na Eliabu, na Maaseia, na Benaia maarĩ a kũhũũra inanda cia kĩnũbi, kũringana na Alamothu.
21 And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to excel.
Nake Matithia, na Elifelehu, na Mikineia, na Obedi-Edomu, na Jeieli, na Azazia maarĩ a kũhũũra inanda cia mũgeeto, matongoretie kũringana na Sheminithu (ũguo nĩ ta kuuga mũgambo ũkũruruma).
22 And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, [was] for song: he instructed about the song, because he [was] skilful.
Kenania ũrĩa mũtongoria wa Alawii nĩwe warũgamĩrĩire ũini; ũcio nĩguo warĩ wĩra wake tondũ aarĩ na ũũgĩ wa guo.
23 And Berechiah and Elkanah [were] doorkeepers for the ark.
Berekia na Elikana nĩo maarĩ a kũrangĩra mĩrango nĩ ũndũ wa ithandũkũ rĩu.
24 And Shebaniah, and Jehoshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, the priests, did blow with the trumpets before the ark of God: and Obed-edom and Jehiah [were] doorkeepers for the ark.
Athĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩo Shebania, na Joshafatu, na Nethaneli, na Amasai, na Zekaria, na Benaia, na Eliezeri maarĩ a kũhuha tũrumbeta mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai. Obedi-Edomu na Jehia o nao maarĩ arangĩri a mĩrango nĩ ũndũ wa ithandũkũ rĩu.
25 So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the house of Obed-edom with joy.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi na athuuri a Isiraeli, na anene a ikundi cia ngiri, magĩthiĩ kwambatia ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova kuuma nyũmba ya Obedi-Edomu makenete.
26 And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, that they offered seven bullocks and seven rams.
Tondũ Ngai nĩateithĩtie Alawii arĩa maakuuaga ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova-rĩ, ndegwa mũgwanja na ndũrũme mũgwanja nĩciarutirwo igongona.
27 And David [was] clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that bare the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song with the singers: David also [had] upon him an ephod of linen.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Daudi eehumbĩte nguo ya igũrũ ndaaya ya gatani ĩrĩa njega, na noguo Alawii othe arĩa makuuĩte ithandũkũ rĩu mehumbĩte, o na aini na Kenania ũrĩa warĩ mũtongoria wa ũini. O na ningĩ Daudi nĩehumbĩte ebodi ya gatani.
28 Thus all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the LORD with shouting, and with sound of the cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, making a noise with psalteries and harps.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe a Isiraeli makĩambatia ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova makĩanagĩrĩra, makĩhuhaga macoro na tũrumbeta, na makĩhũũrithanagia thaani iria ihũũrithanagio na ikagamba, na makĩhũũraga inanda cia kĩnũbi na cia mũgeeto.
29 And it came to pass, [as] the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova rĩatoonyaga Itũũra Inene rĩa Daudi-rĩ, Mikali mwarĩ wa Saũlũ nĩacũthĩrĩirie arĩ ndirica-inĩ. Na rĩrĩa onire Mũthamaki Daudi akĩina akĩrũgarũgaga, akĩmũnyarara ngoro-inĩ yake.
