约柜停放在俄别.以东的家(A)

13 大卫与千夫长、百夫长和所有的领袖商议。 然后大卫对以色列全体会众说:“你们如果认为好,认为这事是出于耶和华我们的 神,我们就差遣人走遍各地,去见留在以色列各地的兄弟,以及和他们在一起住在那些有草场的城的祭司和利未人,叫他们都聚集到我们这里来。 我们可以把我们 神的约柜运到我们这里来,因为在扫罗的日子,我们都没有在约柜前求问 神。” 全体会众都同意这样行,因为这事众人都认为对。 于是大卫把以色列众人,从埃及的西曷河直到哈马口,都招聚来,要把 神的约柜从基列.耶琳运来。 大卫和以色列众人去到巴拉,就是属犹大的基列.耶琳,要从那里把 神的约柜运回来;这约柜是以坐在二基路伯上面的耶和华而起名的。 他们把 神的约柜,从亚比拿达家里抬出来,放在一辆新车上,乌撒和亚希约负责赶车。 大卫和以色列众人在 神面前,用诗歌,以及弹琴鼓瑟、敲手鼓、响钹和吹号,尽情欢庆。

他们到了基顿禾场的时候,因为牛失蹄绊倒,乌撒就伸手扶住约柜。 10 于是耶和华向乌撒发怒,因为乌撒伸手把约柜扶住,所以 神把他击杀,他就在那里死在 神面前。 11 大卫因耶和华忽然杀死乌撒,非常不悦,就称那地方为毘列斯.乌撒,直到今日。 12 那天,大卫惧怕 神,说:“我怎可以把 神的约柜运到我这里来呢?” 13 所以,大卫没有把约柜运到大卫城他自己那里去,却转运到迦特人俄别.以东的家里去。 14  神的约柜存放在俄别.以东的家里三个月,耶和华赐福给俄别.以东的家和他的一切。

David and the Ark

13 David consulted with all his leaders, the commanders of hundreds and of thousands. Then he said to the whole assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if this is from the Lord our God, let us spread out and send the message to the rest of our relatives in all the districts of Israel, including the priests and Levites in their cities with pasturelands,(A) that they should gather together with us. Then let us bring back the ark of our God, for we did not inquire of Him(B) in Saul’s days.” Since the proposal seemed right to all the people, the whole assembly agreed to do it.

So David assembled all Israel,(C) from the Shihor of Egypt to the entrance of Hamath,[a](D) to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.(E) David(F) and all Israel went to Baalah(G) (that is, Kiriath-jearim that belongs to Judah) to take the ark of God from there, which is called by the name of the Lord who dwells between the cherubim.(H) At Abinadab’s house(I) they set the ark of God on a new cart. Uzzah and Ahio[b] were guiding the cart.

David and all Israel were celebrating with all their might before God with songs and with lyres, harps, tambourines, cymbals, and trumpets.(J) When they came to Chidon’s threshing floor,(K) Uzzah reached out to hold the ark because the oxen had stumbled. 10 Then the Lord’s anger burned against Uzzah, and He struck him dead because he had reached out to the ark.(L) So he died there in the presence of God.(M)

11 David was angry because of the Lord’s outburst against Uzzah, so he named that place Outburst Against Uzzah,[c] as it is still named today. 12 David feared God that day and said, “How can I ever bring the ark of God to me?” 13 So David did not move the ark of God home[d] to the city of David; instead, he took it to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.(N) 14 The ark of God remained with Obed-edom’s family in his house for three months, and the Lord blessed his family and all that he had.

The Ark Brought from Kirjath Jearim(A)

13 Then David consulted with the (B)captains of thousands and hundreds, and with every leader. 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; 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.” Then all the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

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. 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. 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. 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.

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.

Bringing Back the Ark(A)

13 David conferred with each of his officers, the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds. He then said to the whole assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you and if it is the will of the Lord our God, let us send word far and wide to the rest of our people throughout the territories of Israel, and also to the priests and Levites who are with them in their towns and pasturelands, to come and join us. Let us bring the ark of our God back to us,(B) for we did not inquire(C) of[a] it[b] during the reign of Saul.” The whole assembly agreed to do this, because it seemed right to all the people.

So David assembled all Israel,(D) from the Shihor River(E) in Egypt to Lebo Hamath,(F) to bring the ark of God from Kiriath Jearim.(G) David and all Israel went to Baalah(H) of Judah (Kiriath Jearim) to bring up from there the ark of God the Lord, who is enthroned between the cherubim(I)—the ark that is called by the Name.

They moved the ark of God from Abinadab’s(J) house on a new cart, with Uzzah and Ahio guiding it. David and all the Israelites were celebrating with all their might before God, with songs and with harps, lyres, timbrels, cymbals and trumpets.(K)

When they came to the threshing floor of Kidon, Uzzah reached out his hand to steady the ark, because the oxen stumbled. 10 The Lord’s anger(L) burned against Uzzah, and he struck him down(M) because he had put his hand on the ark. So he died there before God.

11 Then David was angry because the Lord’s wrath had broken out against Uzzah, and to this day that place is called Perez Uzzah.[c](N)

12 David was afraid of God that day and asked, “How can I ever bring the ark of God to me?” 13 He did not take the ark to be with him in the City of David. Instead, he took it to the house of Obed-Edom(O) the Gittite. 14 The ark of God remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house for three months, and the Lord blessed his household(P) and everything he had.
