Ang Pagpreparar sa Pagkuha sang Kahon sang Kasugtanan

15 Nagpatindog si David sang mga bilding para sa iya kaugalingon didto sa iya banwa.[a] Nagpahimo man siya sang tolda para sa Kahon sang Dios kag ginplastar niya ini sa lugar nga iya ginpreparar para sa sini. Dayon nagsiling si David, “Wala sing may magdala sang Kahon sang Dios magluwas sa mga Levita, tungod kay ginpili sila sang Ginoo sa pagdala sang Kahon sang Ginoo kag sa pag-alagad sa iya presensya hasta san-o.”

Gintipon ni David ang tanan nga Israelinhon sa Jerusalem sa pagdala sang Kahon sang Ginoo sa lugar nga iya ginpreparar para sa sini. Ginpatawag man niya ang mga pari[b] kag mga Levita, nga ang ila kadamuon amo ini:

Halin sa mga kaliwat ni Kora, 120, kag ginpanguluhan sila ni Uriel.

Halin sa mga kaliwat ni Merari, 220, kag ginpanguluhan sila ni Asaya.

Halin sa mga kaliwat ni Gershon,[c] 130, kag ginpanguluhan sila ni Joel.

Halin sa mga kaliwat ni Elizafan, 200, kag ginpanguluhan sila ni Shemaya.

Halin sa mga kaliwat ni Hebron, 80, kag ginpanguluhan sila ni Eliel.

10 Halin sa mga kaliwat ni Uziel, 112, kag ginpanguluhan sila ni Aminadab.

11 Dayon ginpatawag ni David si Zadok kag si Abiatar nga mga pari, kag ang mga Levita nga sila ni Uriel, Asaya Joel, Shemaya, Eliel, kag Aminadab. 12 Nagsiling siya sa ila, “Kamo ang mga pangulo sang mga pamilya nga mga kaliwat ni Levi. Magpakatinlo kamo[d] kag ang inyo kapareho nga mga kaliwat ni Levi, agod madala ninyo ang Kahon sang Ginoo, ang Dios sang Israel, sa lugar nga ginpreparar ko para sa sini. 13 Tungod indi kamo ang nagdala sang Kahon sang Kasugtanan sang nahauna nga tion, ginsilutan kita sang Ginoo nga aton Dios sa iya kaakig. Wala kita magpamangkot sa Ginoo kon paano ini dal-on sa husto nga pamaagi.”

14 Gani nagpakatinlo[e] ang mga pari kag ang mga Levita agod madala nila ang Kahon sang Ginoo, ang Dios sang Israel. 15 Kag gindala nila ang Kahon sang Dios paagi sa tukon nga pangtuwang, suno sa ginsugo sang Ginoo kay Moises.

16 Ginsugo ni David ang mga pangulo sang mga Levita sa pagpili sang mga manugkanta halin sa ila kapareho nga mga Levita, sa pagkanta sang masadya nga mga kalantahon nga ginatukaran sang mga lira, arpa, kag mga simbals. 17 Gani ginpili sang mga Levita si Heman nga anak ni Joel, si Asaf nga anak ni Berekia, kag si Etan nga anak ni Kushaya nga kaliwat ni Merari. 18 Ang ginpili nga magbulig sa ila amo ang ila mga paryente nga sila ni Zacarias, Jaaziel, Shemiramot, Jehiel, Uni, Eliab, Benaya, Maasea, Matitia, Elifelehu, Miknea, kag ang mga guwardya sang puwertahan sang Tolda nga sila ni Obed Edom kag Jiel. 19 Ang gintugyanan sa pagtukar sang mga saway nga simbals amo sila ni Heman, Asaf, kag Etan. 20 Ang gintugyanan sa pagtukar sang mga lira sa mataas nga tunog [f] amo sila ni Zacarias, Aziel, Shemiramot, Jehiel, Uni, Eliab, Maasea, kag Benaya. 21 Ang gintugyanan sa pagtukar sang mga arpa sa manubo nga tunog[g] amo sila ni Matitia, Elifelehu, Miknea, Obed Edom, Jiel, kag Azazia. 22 Ang gintugyanan sa pagpanguna sa pagkanta amo si Kenania nga pangulo nga Levita, tungod kay maayo siya magkanta. 23 Ang gintugyanan sa pagbantay sang Kahon sang Kasugtanan amo si Berekia kag si Elkana. 24 Ang gintugyanan sa pagpatunog sang trumpeta sa atubangan sang Kahon sang Dios amo ang mga pari nga sila ni Shebania, Joshafat, Netanel, Amasai, Zacarias, Benaya, kag Eliezer. Si Obed Edom kag si Jehia mga manugbantay man sa Kahon sang Kasugtanan.

Gindala sa Jerusalem ang Kahon sang Kasugtanan(A)

25 Gani malipayon nga nagkadto si David, ang mga manugdumala sang Israel, kag ang mga kumander sang linibo ka mga soldado sa balay ni Obed Edom sa pagkuha sang Kahon sang Kasugtanan sang Ginoo. 26 Kag tungod ginbuligan sang Dios ang mga Levita sang ginadala nila ang Kahon sang Kasugtanan sang Ginoo, naghalad sila sang pito ka turo nga baka kag pito ka karnero. 27 Si David nagabayo sang linen pati ang tanan nga Levita nga nagadala sang Kahon sang Kasugtanan, ang mga manugkanta, kag si Kenania nga amo ang gintugyanan sa pagpanguna sa pagkanta. Nagasul-ob man si David sang espesyal nga panapton[h] nga linen. 28 Gani gindala sang tanan nga Israelinhon ang Kahon sang Kasugtanan sang Ginoo nga may paghinugyaw, pagpatunog sang mga trumpeta, mga budyong kag mga simbals, kag pagtukar sang mga lira kag mga arpa.

29 Sang nagapasulod na ang Kahon sang Kasugtanan sang Ginoo sa Banwa ni David, nagtan-aw si Mical nga anak ni Saul sa bintana. Kag sang makita niya si Haring David nga nagasaot sa kalipay, ginkaugtan niya siya.

The Ark Brought to Jerusalem(A)

15 After David had constructed buildings for himself in the City of David, he prepared(B) a place for the ark of God and pitched(C) a tent for it. Then David said, “No one but the Levites(D) may carry(E) the ark of God, because the Lord chose them to carry the ark of the Lord and to minister(F) before him forever.”

David assembled all Israel(G) in Jerusalem to bring up the ark of the Lord to the place he had prepared for it. He called together the descendants of Aaron and the Levites:(H)

From the descendants of Kohath,

Uriel(I) the leader and 120 relatives;

from the descendants of Merari,

Asaiah the leader and 220 relatives;

from the descendants of Gershon,[a]

Joel the leader and 130 relatives;

from the descendants of Elizaphan,(J)

Shemaiah the leader and 200 relatives;

from the descendants of Hebron,(K)

Eliel the leader and 80 relatives;

10 from the descendants of Uzziel,

Amminadab the leader and 112 relatives.

11 Then David summoned Zadok(L) and Abiathar(M) the priests, and Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel and Amminadab the Levites. 12 He said to them, “You are the heads of the Levitical families; you and your fellow Levites are to consecrate(N) yourselves and bring up the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel, to the place I have prepared for it. 13 It was because you, the Levites,(O) did not bring it up the first time that the Lord our God broke out in anger against us.(P) We did not inquire of him about how to do it in the prescribed way.(Q) 14 So the priests and Levites consecrated themselves in order to bring up the ark of the Lord, the God of Israel. 15 And the Levites carried the ark of God with the poles on their shoulders, as Moses had commanded(R) in accordance with the word of the Lord.(S)

16 David(T) told the leaders of the Levites(U) to appoint their fellow Levites as musicians(V) to make a joyful sound with musical instruments: lyres, harps and cymbals.(W)

17 So the Levites appointed Heman(X) son of Joel; from his relatives, Asaph(Y) son of Berekiah; and from their relatives the Merarites,(Z) Ethan son of Kushaiah; 18 and with them their relatives next in rank: Zechariah,[b] Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom(AA) and Jeiel,[c] the gatekeepers.

19 The musicians Heman,(AB) Asaph and Ethan were to sound the bronze cymbals; 20 Zechariah, Jaaziel,[d] Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah and Benaiah were to play the lyres according to alamoth,[e] 21 and Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-Edom, Jeiel and Azaziah were to play the harps, directing according to sheminith.[f] 22 Kenaniah the head Levite was in charge of the singing; that was his responsibility because he was skillful at it.

23 Berekiah and Elkanah were to be doorkeepers for the ark. 24 Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah and Eliezer the priests were to blow trumpets(AC) before the ark of God. Obed-Edom and Jehiah were also to be doorkeepers for the ark.

25 So David and the elders of Israel and the commanders of units of a thousand went to bring up the ark(AD) of the covenant of the Lord from the house of Obed-Edom, with rejoicing. 26 Because God had helped the Levites who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the Lord, seven bulls and seven rams(AE) were sacrificed. 27 Now David was clothed in a robe of fine linen, as were all the Levites who were carrying the ark, and as were the musicians, and Kenaniah, who was in charge of the singing of the choirs. David also wore a linen ephod.(AF) 28 So all Israel(AG) brought up the ark of the covenant of the Lord with shouts,(AH) with the sounding of rams’ horns(AI) and trumpets, and of cymbals, and the playing of lyres and harps.

29 As the ark of the covenant of the Lord was entering the City of David, Michal daughter of Saul watched from a window. And when she saw King David dancing and celebrating, she despised him in her heart.

15 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.

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.

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.

And David assembled the children of Aaron, and the Levites:

Of the sons of Kohath; Uriel the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twenty:

Of the sons of Merari; Asaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty:

Of the sons of Gershom; Joel the chief and his brethren an hundred and thirty:

Of the sons of Elizaphan; Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred:

Of the sons of Hebron; Eliel the chief, and his brethren fourscore:

10 Of the sons of Uzziel; Amminadab the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twelve.

11 And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,

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.

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.

14 So the priests and the Levites sanctified themselves to bring up the ark of the Lord God of Israel.

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.

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.

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;

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 Obededom, and Jeiel, the porters.

19 So the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were appointed to sound with cymbals of brass;

20 And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah, with psalteries on Alamoth;

21 And Mattithiah, and Elipheleh, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, and Azaziah, with harps on the Sheminith to excel.

22 And Chenaniah, chief of the Levites, was for song: he instructed about the song, because he was skilful.

23 And Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.

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 Obededom and Jehiah were doorkeepers for the ark.

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 Obededom with joy.

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.

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.

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.

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.
