¹And David made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.

¹A nadovážil si domov v meste Dávidovom a pripravil miesto truhle Božej a roztiahol pre ňu stán.

²Then 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.

²Vtedy povedal Dávid: Nikto nemá nosiť truhlu Božiu iba Levitovia; lebo ich si vyvolil Hospodin na to, aby nosili truhlu Boha a aby mu svätoslúžili až na veky.

³And David gathered all Israel together to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD unto his place, which he had prepared for it.

³A Dávid shromaždil celého Izraela do Jeruzalema, aby priniesli truhlu Hospodinovu hore na jej miesto, ktoré jej pripravil.

⁴And David assembled the children of Aaron, and the Levites:

⁴A Dávid shromaždil synov Áronových a Levitov.

⁵Of the sons of Kohath; Uriel the chief, and his brethren an hundred and twenty:

⁵Zo synov Kehátových veliteľ Uriel a jeho bratia sto dvadsiati.

⁶Of the sons of Merari; Asaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty:

⁶Zo synov Meráriho veliteľ Asaiáš a jeho bratia dvesto dvadsiati.

⁷Of the sons of Gershom; Joel the chief and his brethren an hundred and thirty:

⁷Zo synov Geršomových veliteľ Joel a jeho bratia sto tridsiati.

⁸Of the sons of Elizaphan; Shemaiah the chief, and his brethren two hundred:

⁸Zo synov Elicafánových veliteľ Šemaiáš a jeho bratia počtom dvesto.

⁹Of the sons of Hebron; Eliel the chief, and his brethren fourscore:

⁹Zo synov Hebronových veliteľ Eliel a jeho bratia osemdesiati.

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

¹⁰Zo synov Uzielových veliteľ Amminadáb a jeho bratia sto dvanásti.

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

¹¹A Dávid povolal Cádoka a Ebiatára, kňazov, i Levitov: Uriela, Asaiáša, Joela, Šemaiáša, Eliela a Amminadába

¹²And 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.

¹²a povedal im: Vy ste hlavami otcov Levitov; posväťte sa vy i vaši bratia a preneste truhlu Hospodina, Boha Izraelovho, hore na miesto, ktoré som jej pripravil.

¹³For 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.

¹³Lebo preto, že ste tak neurobili vy tam na počiatku, učinil Hospodin, náš Bôh, trhlinu medzi nami, lebo sme ho nehľadali podľa poriadku.

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

¹⁴Vtedy sa posvätili kňazi i Levitovia, aby preniesli hore truhlu Hospodina, Boha Izraelovho.

¹⁵And 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.

¹⁵A tedy niesli synovia Levitov truhlu Božiu tak, ako prikázal Mojžiš, podľa slova Hospodinovho, na svojich pleciach, na sochoroch, na sebe.

¹⁶And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren to be the singers with instruments of music, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the voice with joy.

¹⁶A Dávid riekol veliteľom Levitov, aby postavili svojich bratov spevákov do služby s nástrojami k sprievodu spevu, s citarami, harfami a s cymbalmi, aby dali čuť hudbu a spev pozdvihnúc hlas na radosť.

¹⁷So 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;

¹⁷A tak postavili Levitovia Hémana, syna Joelovho, a z jeho bratov Azafa, syna Berechiášovho; a zo synov Meráriho, ich bratov, Étana, syna Kúšaiášovho.

¹⁸And 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.

¹⁸A s nimi ich bratov druhého radu: Zachariáša, (Bena) a Jaziela, Šemirámota, Jechiela, Unniho, Eliába, Benaiáša, Maaseiáša, Mattitiáša, Elifleáša, Mikneiáša, Obéd-edoma a Jehiela, vrátnych.

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

¹⁹A speváci Héman, Azaf a Étan, s medenými cymbalmi, boli nato, aby dali čuť hudbu a spev.

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

²⁰Zachariáš, Aziel, Šemirámot, Jechiel, Unni, Eliáb, Maaseiáš a Benaiáš húdli na citary vysokým spevom na spôsob ako devy.

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

²¹Mattitiáš, Elifleáš, Mikneiáš, Obéd-edom, Jehiel a Azaziáš hrali na harfy na ôsmy hlas nízky, aby viedli spev.

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

²²Chenaniáš, veliteľ Levitov, bol nad povznášaním hlasu; vyučoval povznášaniu hlasu, lebo sa rozumel tomu.

²³And Berechiah and Elkanah were doorkeepers for the ark.

²³A Berechiáš a Elkána boli vrátnymi pri truhle.

²⁴And 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.

²⁴Šebaniáš, Jozafat, Natanael, Amazai, Zachariáš, Benaiáš a Eliézer, kňazi, trúbili na trúby pred truhlou Božou, a Obéd-edom a Jechiáš boli tiež vrátnym pri truhle.

²⁵So 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.

²⁵A tak išiel Dávid i starší Izraelovi i velitelia tisícov, aby preniesli truhlu smluvy Hospodinovej z domu Obéd-edoma ta hore s radosťou.

²⁶And 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.

²⁶A stalo sa, pretože Bôh pomáhal Levitom, ktorí niesli truhlu smluvy Hospodinovej, že obetovali sedem juncov a sedem baranov.

²⁷And 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.

²⁷A Dávid bol odiaty kmentovým plášťom ako i všetci Levitovia, ktorí niesli truhlu, i speváci i Chenaniáš, veliteľ spevu, speváci, a Dávid mal na sebe ľanový efod.

²⁸Thus 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.

²⁸A celý Izrael niesli hore truhlu smluvy Hospodinovej s radostným krikom a so zvukom surmy, s trúbami a cymbalmi, hlasite hrajúc na citarách a harfách.

²⁹And 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.

²⁹A stalo sa, keď prišla truhla smluvy Hospodinovej až po mesto Dávidovo, že Míchaľ, dcéra Saulova, hľadela z okna. A keď videla kráľa Dávida, že poskakuje a plesá, pohŕdla ním vo svojom srdci.
