1 Chronicles 13

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 After David had taken counsel with his commanders of thousands and of hundreds, that is to say, with every one of his leaders,	1 وشاور داود قواد الالوف والمئات وكل رئيس
2 he said to the whole assembly of Israel: "If it seems good to you, and is so decreed by the LORD our God, let us summon the rest of our brethren from all the districts of Israel, and also the priests and the Levites from their cities with pasture lands, that they may join us;	2 وقال داود لكل جماعة اسرائيل ان حسن عندكم وكان ذلك من الرب الهنا فلنرسل الى كل جهة الى اخوتنا الباقين في كل اراضي اسرائيل ومعهم الكهنة واللاويون في مدن مسارحهم ليجتمعوا الينا
3 and let us bring the ark of our God here among us, for in the days of Saul we did not visit it."	3 فنرجع تابوت الهنا الينا لاننا لم نسأل به في ايام شاول.
4 And the whole assembly agreed to do this, for the idea was pleasing to all the people.	4 فقال كل الجماعة بان يفعلوا ذلك لان الأمر حسن في اعين جميع الشعب.
5 Then David assembled all Israel, from Shihor of Egypt to Labo of Hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.	5 وجمع داود كل اسرائيل من شيحور مصر الى مدخل حماة ليأتوا بتابوت الله من قرية يعاريم.
6 David and all Israel went up to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath-jearim, of Judah, to bring back the ark of God, which was known by the name "LORD enthroned upon the cherubim."	6 وصعد داود وكل اسرائيل الى بعلة الى قرية يعاريم التي ليهوذا ليصعدوا من هناك تابوت الله الرب الجالس على الكروبيم الذي دعي بالاسم.
7 They transported the ark of God on a new cart from the house of Abinadab; Uzzah and Ahio were guiding the cart,	7 واركبوا تابوت الله على عجلة جديدة من بيت ابيناداب وكان عزّا واخيو يسوقان العجلة
8 while David and all Israel danced before God with great enthusiasm, amid songs and music on lyres, harps, tambourines, cymbals, and trumpets.	8 وداود وكل اسرائيل يلعبون امام الله بكل عزّ وباغاني وعيدان ورباب ودفوف وصنوج وابواق.
9 As they reached the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzzah stretched out his hand to steady the ark, for the oxen were upsetting it.	9 ولما انتهوا الى بيدر كيدون مدّ عزّا يده ليمسك التابوت لان الثيران انشمصت.
10 Then the LORD became angry with Uzzah and struck him; he died there in God's presence, because he had laid his hand on the ark.	10 فحمي غضب الرب على عزّا وضربه من اجل انه مدّ يده الى التابوت فمات هناك امام الله.
11 David was disturbed because the LORD'S anger had broken out against Uzzah. Therefore that place has been called Perez-uzza even to this day.	11 فاغتاظ داود لان الرب اقتحم عزّا اقتحاما وسمّى ذلك الموضع فارص عزّا الى هذا اليوم.
12 David was now afraid of God, and he said, "How can I bring the ark of God with me?"	12 وخاف داود الله في ذلك اليوم قائلا كيف آتي بتابوت الله اليّ.
13 Therefore he did not take the ark back with him to the City of David, but he took it instead to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.	13 ولم ينقل داود التابوت اليه الى مدينة داود بل مال به الى بيت عوبيد ادوم الجتّي.
14 The ark of God remained in the house of Obed-edom with his family for three months, and the LORD blessed Obed-edom's household and all that he possessed.	14 وبقي تابوت الله عند بيت عوبيد ادوم في بيته ثلاثة اشهر وبارك الرب بيت عوبيد ادوم وكل ما له
