1David consulted with the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, with every leader.1וַיִּוָּעַ֣ץ דָּוִ֗יד עִם־ שָׂרֵ֧י הָאֲלָפִ֛ים וְהַמֵּא֖וֹת לְכָל־ נָגִֽיד׃
2And David said to all the assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you and from the LORD our God, let us send abroad to our brothers who remain in all the lands of Israel, as well as to the priests and Levites in the cities that have pasturelands, that they may be gathered to us.2וַיֹּ֨אמֶר דָּוִ֜יד לְכֹ֣ל ׀ קְהַ֣ל יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל אִם־ עֲלֵיכֶ֨ם ט֜וֹב וּמִן־ יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֗ינוּ נִפְרְצָה֙ נִשְׁלְחָ֞ה עַל־ אַחֵ֣ינוּ הַנִּשְׁאָרִ֗ים בְּכֹל֙ אַרְצ֣וֹת יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וְעִמָּהֶ֛ם הַכֹּהֲנִ֥ים וְהַלְוִיִּ֖ם בְּעָרֵ֣י מִגְרְשֵׁיהֶ֑ם וְיִקָּבְצ֖וּ אֵלֵֽינוּ׃
3Then let us bring again the ark of our God to us, for we did not seek it in the days of Saul.”3וְנָסֵ֛בָּה אֶת־ אֲר֥וֹן אֱלֹהֵ֖ינוּ אֵלֵ֑ינוּ כִּי־ לֹ֥א דְרַשְׁנֻ֖הוּ בִּימֵ֥י שָׁאֽוּל׃
4All the assembly agreed to do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.4וַיֹּאמְר֥וּ כָֽל־ הַקָּהָ֖ל לַעֲשׂ֣וֹת כֵּ֑ן כִּֽי־ יָשַׁ֥ר הַדָּבָ֖ר בְּעֵינֵ֥י כָל־ הָעָֽם׃
5So David assembled all Israel from the Nile of Egypt to Lebo-hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.5וַיַּקְהֵ֤ל דָּוִיד֙ אֶת־ כָּל־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל מִן־ שִׁיח֥וֹר מִצְרַ֖יִם וְעַד־ לְב֣וֹא חֲמָ֑ת לְהָבִיא֙ אֶת־ אֲר֣וֹן הָאֱלֹהִ֔ים מִקִּרְיַ֖ת יְעָרִֽים׃
6And David and all Israel went up to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath-jearim that belongs to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the name of the LORD who sits enthroned above the cherubim.6וַיַּ֨עַל דָּוִ֤יד וְכָל־ יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ בַּעֲלָ֔תָה אֶל־ קִרְיַ֥ת יְעָרִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר לִיהוּדָ֑ה לְהַעֲל֣וֹת מִשָּׁ֗ם אֵת֩ אֲר֨וֹן הָאֱלֹהִ֧ים ׀ יְהוָ֛ה יוֹשֵׁ֥ב הַכְּרוּבִ֖ים אֲשֶׁר־ נִקְרָ֥א שֵֽׁם׃
7And they carried the ark of God on a new cart, from the house of Abinadab, and Uzzah and Ahio were driving the cart.7וַיַּרְכִּ֜יבוּ אֶת־ אֲר֤וֹן הָאֱלֹהִים֙ עַל־ עֲגָלָ֣ה חֲדָשָׁ֔ה מִבֵּ֖ית אֲבִינָדָ֑ב וְעֻזָּ֣א וְאַחְי֔וֹ נֹהֲגִ֖ים בָּעֲגָלָֽה׃
8And David and all Israel were celebrating before God with all their might, with song and lyres and harps and tambourines and cymbals and trumpets.8וְדָוִ֣יד וְכָל־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל מְשַׂחֲקִ֛ים לִפְנֵ֥י הָאֱלֹהִ֖ים בְּכָל־ עֹ֑ז וּבְשִׁירִ֤ים וּבְכִנֹּרוֹת֙ וּבִנְבָלִ֣ים וּבְתֻפִּ֔ים וּבִמְצִלְתַּ֖יִם וּבַחֲצֹצְרֽוֹת׃
9And when they came to the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzzah put out his hand to take hold of the ark, for the oxen stumbled.9וַיָּבֹ֖אוּ עַד־ גֹּ֣רֶן כִּידֹ֑ן וַיִּשְׁלַ֨ח עֻזָּ֜א אֶת־ יָד֗וֹ לֶאֱחֹז֙ אֶת־ הָ֣אָר֔וֹן כִּ֥י שָֽׁמְט֖וּ הַבָּקָֽר׃
10And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah, and he struck him down because he put out his hand to the ark, and he died there before God.10וַיִּֽחַר־ אַ֤ף יְהוָה֙ בְּעֻזָּ֔א וַיַּכֵּ֕הוּ עַ֛ל אֲשֶׁר־ שָׁלַ֥ח יָד֖וֹ עַל־ הָאָר֑וֹן וַיָּ֥מָת שָׁ֖ם לִפְנֵ֥י אֱלֹהִֽים׃
11And David was angry because the LORD had broken out against Uzzah. And that place is called Perez-uzza to this day.11וַיִּ֣חַר לְדָוִ֔יד כִּֽי־ פָרַ֧ץ יְהוָ֛ה פֶּ֖רֶץ בְּעֻזָּ֑א וַיִּקְרָ֞א לַמָּק֤וֹם הַהוּא֙ פֶּ֣רֶץ עֻזָּ֔א עַ֖ד הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃
12And David was afraid of God that day, and he said, “How can I bring the ark of God home to me?”12וַיִּירָ֤א דָוִיד֙ אֶת־ הָ֣אֱלֹהִ֔ים בַּיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא לֵאמֹ֑ר הֵ֚יךְ אָבִ֣יא אֵלַ֔י אֵ֖ת אֲר֥וֹן הָאֱלֹהִֽים׃
13So David did not take the ark home into the city of David, but took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.13וְלֹֽא־ הֵסִ֨יר דָּוִ֧יד אֶת־ הָאָר֛וֹן אֵלָ֖יו אֶל־ עִ֣יר דָּוִ֑יד וַיַּטֵּ֕הוּ אֶל־ בֵּ֥ית עֹבֵֽד־ אֱדֹ֖ם הַגִּתִּֽי׃
14And the ark of God remained with the household of Obed-edom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the household of Obed-edom and all that he had.14וַיֵּשֶׁב֩ אֲר֨וֹן הָאֱלֹהִ֜ים עִם־ בֵּ֨ית עֹבֵ֥ד אֱדֹ֛ם בְּבֵית֖וֹ שְׁלֹשָׁ֣ה חֳדָשִׁ֑ים וַיְבָ֧רֶךְ יְהוָ֛ה אֶת־ בֵּ֥ית עֹבֵֽד־ אֱדֹ֖ם וְאֶת־ כָּל־ אֲשֶׁר־ לֽוֹ׃ פ
