1 Chronicles 15
1 And he maketh for himself houses in the city of David, and prepareth a place for the ark of God, and stretcheth out for it a tent.
Fecit quoque sibi domos in Civitate David: et aedificavit locum arcae Dei, tetenditque ei tabernaculum.
2 Then said David, 'None [are] to carry the ark of God, except the Levites, for on them hath Jehovah fixed to carry the ark of God, and to serve Him — unto the age.'
Tunc dixit David: illicitum est ut a quocumque portetur arca Dei nisi a Levitis, quos elegit Dominus ad portandum eam, et ad ministrandum sibi usque in aeternum.
3 And David assembleth all Israel unto Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of Jehovah unto its place that he had prepared for it.
Congregavitque universum Israel in Ierusalem, ut afferretur arca Dei in locum suum, quem praeparaverat ei.
4 And David gathereth the sons of Aaron, and the Levites.
Necnon et filios Aaron, et Levitas.
5 Of sons of Kohath: Uriel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and twenty.
de filiis Caath, Uriel princeps fuit, et fratres eius centum viginti.
6 Of sons of Merari: Asaiah the chief, and his brethren, two hundred and twenty.
De filiis Merari, Asaia princeps: et fratres eius ducenti viginti.
7 Of sons of Gershom: Joel the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and thirty.
De filiis Gersom, Ioel princeps; et fratres eius centum triginta.
8 Of sons of Elizaphan: Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren, two hundred.
De filiis Elisaphan, Semeias princeps, et fratres eius ducenti.
9 Of sons of Hebron: Eliel the chief, and his brethren, eighty.
De filiis Hebron, Eliel princeps; et fratres eius octoginta.
10 Of sons of Uzziel: Amminadab the chief, and his brethren, a hundred and twelve.
De filiis Oziel, Aminadab princeps: et fratres eius centum duodecim.
11 And David calleth to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, and to the Levites, to Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,
Vocavitque David Sadoc, et Abiathar Sacerdotes, et Levitas, Uriel, Asaiam, Ioel, Semeiam, Eliel, et Aminadab:
12 and saith to them, 'Ye [are] heads of the fathers of the Levites; sanctify yourselves, ye and your brethren, and ye have brought up the ark of Jehovah, God of Israel, unto [the place] I have prepared for it;
et dixit ad eos: Vos qui estis principes familiarum Leviticarum, sanctificamini cum fratribus vestris, et afferte arcam Domini Dei Israel ad locum, qui ei praeparatus est:
13 because at the first [it was] not ye, Jehovah our God made a breach upon us, because we sought Him not according to the ordinance.'
ne ut a principio, quia non eratis praesentes, percussit nos Dominus; sic et nunc fiat, illicitum quid nobis agentibus.
14 And the priests and the Levites sanctify themselves, to bring up the ark of Jehovah, God of Israel;
Sanctificati sunt ergo Sacerdotes, et Levitae, ut portarent arcam Domini Dei Israel.
15 and sons of the Levites bear the ark of God, as Moses commanded, according to the word of Jehovah, on their shoulder, with staves, above them.
Et tulerunt filii Levi arcam Dei, sicut praeceperat Moyses iuxta verbum Domini humeris suis in vectibus.
16 And David saith to the heads of the Levites to appoint their brethren the singers, with instruments of song, psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, sounding, to lift up with the voice for joy.
Dixitque David principibus Levitarum, ut constituerent de fratribus suis cantores in organis musicorum, nablis videlicet, et lyris, et cymbalis, ut resonaret in excelsis sonitus laetitiae.
17 And the Levites appoint Heman son of Joel, and of his brethren, Asaph son of Berechiah, and of the sons of Merari their brethren, Ethan son of Kushaiah;
Constitueruntque Levitas: Heman filium Ioel, et de fratribus eius Asaph filium Barachiae: de filiis vero Merari, fratribus eorum: Ethan filium Casaiae.
18 and with them their brethren, the seconds [in rank], 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 gatekeepers;
Et cum eis fratres eorum: in secundo ordine, Zachariam, et Ben, et Iaziel, et Semiramoth, et Iahiel, et Ani, Eliab, et Banaiam, et Maasiam, et Mathathiam, et Eliphalu, et Maceniam, et Obededom, et Iehiel, ianitores.
19 and the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, with cymbals of brass to sound,
Porro cantores, Heman, Asaph, et Ethan; in cymbalis aeneis concrepantes.
20 and Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jeheil, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries besides virgins,
Zacharias autem, et Oziel, et Semiramoth, et Iahiel, et Ani, et Eliab, et Maasias, et Banaias in nablis arcana cantabant.
21 and Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps, on the octave, to oversee.
Porro Mathathias, et Eliphalu, et Macenias, et Obededom, et Iehiel, et Ozaziu, in citharis pro octava canebant epinicion.
22 And Chenaniah, head of the Levites, [is] over the burden; he instructeth about the burden, for he [is] intelligent.
Chonenias autem princeps Levitarum, prophetiae praeerat, ad praecinendam melodiam: erat quippe valde sapiens.
23 And Berechiah and Elkanah [are] gatekeepers for the ark.
Et Barachias, et Elcana: ianitores arcae.
24 And Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethaneel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer the priests, are blowing with trumpets before the ark of God; and Obed-Edom and Jehiah [are] gatekeepers for the ark.
Porro Sebenias, et Iosaphat, et Nathanael, et Amasai, et Zacharias, et Banaias, et Eliezer sacerdotes, clangebant tubis coram arca Dei: et Obededom et Iehias erant ianitores arcae.
25 And it is David, and the elders of Israel, and the heads of the thousands, who are going to bring up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah from the house of Obed-Edom with joy;
Igitur David et omnes maiores natu Israel, et tribuni ierunt ad deportandam arcam foederis Domini de domo Obededom cum laetitia.
26 and it cometh to pass, in God's helping the Levites bearing the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, that they sacrifice seven bullocks and seven rams.
Cumque adiuvisset Deus Levitas, qui portabant arcam foederis Domini, immolabantur septem tauri, et septem arietes.
27 And David is wrapped in an upper robe of fine linen, and all the Levites who are bearing the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah head of the burden of the singers; and on David [is] an Ephod of linen.
Porro David erat indutus stola byssina, et universi Levitae qui portabant arcam, cantoresque et Chonenias princeps prophetiae inter cantores: David autem etiam indutus erat ephod lineo.
28 And all Israel are bringing up the ark of the covenant of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of a cornet, and with trumpets, and with cymbals, sounding with psalteries and harps,
Universusque Israel deducebant arcam foederis Domini in iubilo, et sonitu buccinae, et tubis, et cymbalis, et nablis, et citharis concrepantes.
29 and it cometh to pass, the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is entering in unto the city of David, and Michal daughter of Saul is looking through the window, and seeth king David dancing and playing, and despiseth him in her heart.
Cumque pervenisset arca foederis Domini usque ad Civitatem David, Michol filia Saul prospiciens per fenestram, vidit regem David saltantem atque ludentem, et despexit eum in corde suo.
