I Livro das Crônicas 15

SAGRADA BIBLIA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Davi construiu casas para si na cidade de Davi; preparou um lugar para a arca de Deus e levantou para ela um pavilhão.	1 He made also houses for himself in the city of David: and built a place for the ark of God, and pitched a tabernacle for it.
2 Disse, então, Davi: A arca de Deus só pode ser carregada por levitas, pois são eles que o Senhor escolheu para carregá-la e para servi-la perpetuamente.	2 Then David said: No one ought to carry the ark of God, but the Levites, whom the Lord hath chosen to carry it, and to minister unto himself for ever.
3 Davi convocou todo o Israel em Jerusalém, para fazer subir a arca do Senhor ao lugar que lhe havia preparado.	3 And he gathered all Israel together into Jerusalem, that the ark of God might be brought into its place, which he had prepared for it.
4 Reuniu os filhos de Aarão e os levitas:	4 And the sons of Aaron also, and the Levites.
5 dos filhos de Caat, Uriel, o chefe, e seus 120 irmãos;	5 Of the children of Caath, Uriel was the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty.
6 dos filhos de Merari, Asaia, o chefe, e seus 220 irmãos;	6 Of the sons of Merari, Asaia the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty.
7 dos filhos de Gerson, Joel, o chefe, e seus 130 irmãos;	7 Of the sons of Gersom, Joel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and thirty.
8 dos filhos de Elisafã, Semeías, o chefe, e seus 200 irmãos;	8 Of the sons of Elisaphan, Semeias the chief: and his brethren two hundred.
9 dos filhos de Hebron, Eliel, o chefe, e seus 80 irmãos;	9 Of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief: and his brethren eighty.
10 dos filhos de Oziel, Aminadab, o chefe, e seus 112 irmãos.	10 Of the sons of Oziel, Aminadab the chief: and his brethren a hundred and twelve.
11 Davi chamou Sadoc e Abiatar, e os levitas Uriel, Asaías, Joel, Semeías, Eliel e Aminadab,	11 And David called Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites, Uriel, Asaia, Joel, Semeia, Eliel, and Aminadab:
12 e disse-lhes: Vós sois os chefes das famílias levíticas; santificai-vos, vós e vossos irmãos, e fazei subir a arca do Senhor, Deus de Israel, ao lugar que lhe preparei.	12 And he said to them: You that are the heads of the Levitical families, be sanctified with your brethren, and brine the ark of the Lord the God of Israel to the place, which is prepared for it:
13 É porque não fostes vós, que o Senhor, nosso Deus, feriu na primeira vez, pois não a fomos procurar como manda a lei.	13 Lest as the Lord at first struck us, because you were not present, the same should now also come to pass, by our doing some thing against the law.
14 Os sacerdotes e levitas santificaram-se, portanto, para fazer subir a arca do Senhor, Deus de Israel.	14 So the priests and the Levites were sanctified, to carry the ark of the Lord the God of Israel.
15 E os filhos de Levi, como o tinha ordenado Moisés, segundo a palavra do Senhor, levaram a arca aos ombros, por meio de varais.	15 And the sons of Levi took the ark of God as Moses had commanded, according to the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders, with the staves.
16 Davi disse aos chefes dos levitas que estabelecessem seus irmãos como cantores com instrumentos de música, cítaras, harpas e címbalos, para que sons vibrantes e alegres se fizessem ouvir.	16 And David spoke to the chiefs of the Levites, to appoint some of their brethren to be singers with musical instruments, to wit, on psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, that the joyful noise might resound on high.
17 Os levitas constituíram Hemã, filho de Joel, e dentre seus irmãos, Asaf, filho de Baraquias; dentre os filhos de Merari, seus irmãos, Etã, filho de Cusaia;	17 And they appointed Levites, Hemam the son of Joel, and of his brethren Asaph the son of Barachias: and of the sons of Merari, their brethren: Ethan the son of Casaia.
18 e com eles, seus irmãos de segunda ordem; Zacarias, Oziel, Semiramot, Jaiel, Ani, Eliab, Banaías, Maasias, Matatias, Elifalu, Macenias, Obededom e Jeiel, os porteiros.	18 And with them their brethren: in the second rank, Zacharias, and Ben, and Jaziel, and Semiramoth, and Jahiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Banaias, and Maasias, and Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias, and Obededom, and Jehiel, the porters.
19 Os cantores, Hemã, Asaf e Etã, tinham címbalos de bronze para faze-los retinir.	19 Now the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, sounded with cymbals of brass.
20 Zacarias, Oziel, Semiramot, Jaiel, Ani, Eliab, Maasias e Banaías tinham cítaras em soprano.	20 And Zacharias, and Oziel, and Semiramoth, and Jehiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Maasias, and Banaias, sung mysteries upon psalteries.
21 Matatias, Elifalu, Macenias, Obededom, Jeiel e Ozaziu tinham harpas na oitava inferior, para conduzir o canto.	21 And Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias and Obededom, and Jehiel and Ozaziu, sung a song of victory for the octave upon harps.
22 Conenias, chefe dos levitas para o transporte, dirigia o transporte, pois era entendido nisso.	22 And Chonenias chief of the Levites, presided over the prophecy, to give out the tunes: for he was very skilful.
23 Baraquias e Elcana eram porteiros da arca.	23 And Barachias, and Elcana, were doorkeepers of the ark.
24 Os sacerdotes Sebenias, Josafá, Natanael, Amasaí, Zacarias, Banaias e Eliezer tocavam trombetas diante da arca de Deus. Obededom e Jeías eram porteiros da arca.	24 And Sebenias, and Josaphat, and Nathanael, and Amasai, and Zacharias, and Banaias, and Eliezer the priests, sounded with trumpets, before the ark of God: and Obededom and Jehias were porters of the ark.
25 Davi, os anciãos de Israel e os chefes de mil foram para retirar da casa de Obededom a arca da aliança do Senhor, e para transportá-la no meio de regozijo.	25 So David and all the ancients of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the house of Obededom with joy.
26 Foi com a assistência de Deus que os levitas transportaram a arca da aliança do Senhor; e foram sacrificados sete touros e sete carneiros.	26 And when God had helped the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, they offered in sacrifice seven oxen, and seven rams.
27 Davi estava revestido de um manto de linho fino, e da mesma forma todos os levitas que transportavam a arca, os cantores e Conenias que dirigia o transporte da arca entre os cantores. Davi estava ainda revestido de um efod de linho.	27 And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that carried the ark, and the singing men, and Chonenias the ruler of the prophecy among the singers: and David also had on him an ephod of linen.
28 Todo o Israel, ao fazer subir a arca da aliança do Senhor, soltava brados de júbilo, ressoando trombetas, trompas e címbalos, retinindo cítaras e harpas.	28 And all Israel brought the ark of the covenant of the Lord with joyful shouting, and sounding with the sound of the comet, and with trumpets, and cymbals, and psalteries, and harps.
29 Quando a arca da aliança do Senhor entrava na cidade de Davi, Micol, filha de Saul, que olhava pela janela, viu que o rei saltava e dançava, e desprezou-o no seu coração.	29 And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come to the city of David, Michol the daughter of Saul looking out at a window, saw king David dancing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
