历代志上 13
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
約櫃停放在俄別．以東的家(A)
13 大衛與千夫長、百夫長和所有的領袖商議。 2 然後大衛對以色列全體會眾說：“你們如果認為好，認為這事是出於耶和華我們的 神，我們就差遣人走遍各地，去見留在以色列各地的兄弟，以及和他們在一起住在那些有草場的城的祭司和利未人，叫他們都聚集到我們這裡來。 3 我們可以把我們 神的約櫃運到我們這裡來，因為在掃羅的日子，我們都沒有在約櫃前求問 神。” 4 全體會眾都同意這樣行，因為這事眾人都認為對。 5 於是大衛把以色列眾人，從埃及的西曷河直到哈馬口，都招聚來，要把 神的約櫃從基列．耶琳運來。 6 大衛和以色列眾人去到巴拉，就是屬猶大的基列．耶琳，要從那裡把 神的約櫃運回來；這約櫃是以坐在二基路伯上面的耶和華而起名的。 7 他們把 神的約櫃，從亞比拿達家裡抬出來，放在一輛新車上，烏撒和亞希約負責趕車。 8 大衛和以色列眾人在 神面前，用詩歌，以及彈琴鼓瑟、敲手鼓、響鈸和吹號，盡情歡慶。
9 他們到了基頓禾場的時候，因為牛失蹄絆倒，烏撒就伸手扶住約櫃。 10 於是耶和華向烏撒發怒，因為烏撒伸手把約櫃扶住，所以 神把他擊殺，他就在那裡死在 神面前。 11 大衛因耶和華忽然殺死烏撒，非常不悅，就稱那地方為毘列斯．烏撒，直到今日。 12 那天，大衛懼怕 神，說：“我怎可以把 神的約櫃運到我這裡來呢？” 13 所以，大衛沒有把約櫃運到大衛城他自己那裡去，卻轉運到迦特人俄別．以東的家裡去。 14 神的約櫃存放在俄別．以東的家裡三個月，耶和華賜福給俄別．以東的家和他的一切。
1 Chronicles 13
New Living Translation
David Attempts to Move the Ark
13 David consulted with all his officials, including the generals and captains of his army.[a] 2 Then he addressed the entire assembly of Israel as follows: “If you approve and if it is the will of the Lord our God, let us send messages to all the Israelites throughout the land, including the priests and Levites in their towns and pasturelands. Let us invite them to come and join us. 3 It is time to bring back the Ark of our God, for we neglected it during the reign of Saul.”
4 The whole assembly agreed to this, for the people could see it was the right thing to do. 5 So David summoned all Israel, from the Shihor Brook of Egypt in the south all the way to the town of Lebo-hamath in the north, to join in bringing the Ark of God from Kiriath-jearim. 6 Then David and all Israel went to Baalah of Judah (also called Kiriath-jearim) to bring back the Ark of God, which bears the name[b] of the Lord who is enthroned between the cherubim. 7 They placed the Ark of God on a new cart and brought it from Abinadab’s house. Uzzah and Ahio were guiding the cart. 8 David and all Israel were celebrating before God with all their might, singing songs and playing all kinds of musical instruments—lyres, harps, tambourines, cymbals, and trumpets.
9 But when they arrived at the threshing floor of Nacon,[c] the oxen stumbled, and Uzzah reached out his hand to steady the Ark. 10 Then the Lord’s anger was aroused against Uzzah, and he struck him dead because he had laid his hand on the Ark. So Uzzah died there in the presence of God.
11 David was angry because the Lord’s anger had burst out against Uzzah. He named that place Perez-uzzah (which means “to burst out against Uzzah”), as it is still called today.
12 David was now afraid of God, and he asked, “How can I ever bring the Ark of God back into my care?” 13 So David did not move the Ark into the City of David. Instead, he took it to the house of Obed-edom of Gath. 14 The Ark of God remained there in Obed-edom’s house for three months, and the Lord blessed the household of Obed-edom and everything he owned.
1 Chronicles 13
New King James Version
The Ark Brought from Kirjath Jearim(A)
13 Then David consulted with the (B)captains of thousands and hundreds, and with every leader. 2 And David said to all the assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if it is of the Lord our God, let us send out to our brethren everywhere who are (C)left in all the land of Israel, and with them to the priests and Levites who are in their cities and their common-lands, that they may gather together to us; 3 and let us bring the ark of our God back to us, (D)for we have not inquired at it since the days of Saul.” 4 Then all the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
5 So (E)David gathered all Israel together, from (F)Shihor in Egypt to as far as the entrance of Hamath, to bring the ark of God (G)from Kirjath Jearim. 6 And David and all Israel went up to (H)Baalah,[a] to Kirjath Jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there the ark of God the Lord, (I)who dwells between the cherubim, where His name is proclaimed. 7 So they [b]carried the ark of God (J)on a new cart (K)from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart. 8 Then (L)David and all Israel played music before God with all their might, with [c]singing, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on cymbals, and with trumpets.
9 And when they came to [d]Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen [e]stumbled. 10 Then the anger of the Lord was aroused against Uzza, and He struck him (M)because he put his hand to the ark; and he (N)died there before God. 11 And David became angry because of the Lord’s outbreak against Uzza; therefore that place is called [f]Perez Uzza to this day. 12 David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring the ark of God to me?”
13 So David would not move the ark with him into the City of David, but took it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite. 14 (O)The ark of God remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months. And the Lord blessed (P)the house of Obed-Edom and all that he had.
