¹Ja Taavet kogus taas kokku kõik Iisraeli valitud mehed, kolmkümmend tuhat.

¹And David again gathered all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.

²Ja Taavet võttis kätte ning läks koos kogu rahvaga, kes oli tema juures, Juuda Baalasse, et tuua sealt Jumala laegas, mille juures hüütakse appi nime, vägede Issanda nime, kes istub keerubite peal.

²And David arose and went with all the people that were with him from Baale-Judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God which is called by the name, the name of Jehovah of hosts who sitteth between the cherubim.

³Ja nad vedasid Jumala laegast uue vankriga ning tõid selle ära künkal asuvast Abinadabi kojast; Ussa ja Ahjo, Abinadabi pojad, juhtisid seda uut vankrit.

³And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was upon the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.

⁴Nõnda tõid nad ära Jumala laeka künkal asuvast Abinadabi kojast, ja Ahjo käis laeka ees.

⁴And they brought it with the ark of God out of the house of Abinadab which was upon the hill; and Ahio went before the ark.

⁵Ja Taavet ja kogu Iisraeli sugu tantsisid Issanda ees igasugu küpressipuust mänguriistadega: kannelde, naablite, trummide, käristite ja simblitega.

⁵And David and all the house of Israel played before Jehovah on all manner of [instruments made of] cypress wood, with harps, and with lutes, and with tambours, and with sistra, and with cymbals.

⁶Aga kui nad jõudsid Naakoni rehealuse juurde, pani Ussa oma käe Jumala laeka külge ja haaras sellest kinni, sest veised tahtsid ümber ajada.

⁶And when they came to Nachon's threshing-floor, Uzzah reached after the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen had stumbled.

⁷Siis Issanda viha süttis põlema Ussa vastu ning Jumal lõi tema eksimuse pärast sinna maha ja ta suri seal Jumala laeka juures.

⁷And the anger of Jehovah was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.

⁸Aga Taavet vihastas, et Issand oli Ussa lõhki rebinud; ja ta pani sellele paigale nimeks Perets-Ussa, nagu see on tänapäevani.

⁸And David was indignant, because Jehovah had made a breach upon Uzzah; and he called that place Perez-Uzzah to this day.

⁹Ja Taavet kartis sel päeval Issandat ning ütles: 'Kuidas võib Issanda laegas tulla minu juurde?'

⁹And David was afraid of Jehovah that day, and said, How shall the ark of Jehovah come to me?

¹⁰Ja Taavet ei tahtnud lasta Issanda laegast tuua enese juurde Taaveti linna, vaid laskis sel pöörduda gatlase Oobed-Edomi kotta.

¹⁰So David would not bring the ark of Jehovah home unto himself into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.

¹¹Ja Issanda laegas jäi gatlase Oobed-Edomi kotta kolmeks kuuks; ja Issand õnnistas Oobed-Edomit ja kogu ta koda.

¹¹And the ark of Jehovah remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months; and Jehovah blessed Obed-Edom and all his household.

¹²Kui kuningas Taavetile jutustati ja öeldi: 'Issand on õnnistanud Oobed-Edomi koda ja kõike, mis tal on, Jumala laeka pärast', siis Taavet läks ja tõi rõõmsa meelega Jumala laeka Oobed-Edomi kojast üles Taaveti linna.

¹²And it was told king David, saying, Jehovah has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that is his, because of the ark of God. And David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom into the city of David with joy.

¹³Kui Issanda laeka kandjad olid astunud kuus sammu, siis ohverdas ta härja ja nuumveise.

¹³And it was so, that when they that bore the ark of Jehovah had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatted beast.

¹⁴Ja Taavet tantsis kõigest väest Issanda ees; Taavet oli riietatud ainult linasesse õlarüüsse.

¹⁴And David danced before Jehovah with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod.

¹⁵Ja Taavet ja kogu Iisraeli sugu tõid Issanda laeka üles hõisates ja sarve puhudes.

¹⁵And David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of Jehovah with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.

¹⁶Aga kui Issanda laegas jõudis Taaveti linna, vaatas Sauli tütar Miikal aknast välja ja nähes kuningas Taavetit hüppavat ja kargavat Issanda ees, põlgas ta teda oma südames.

¹⁶And as the ark of Jehovah came into the city of David, Michal the daughter of Saul looked through a window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before Jehovah; and she despised him in her heart.

¹⁷Kui Issanda laegas oli viidud ja asetatud ta paika keset telki, mille Taavet oli sellele püstitanud, siis ohverdas Taavet Issanda ees põletus- ja tänuohvreid.

¹⁷And they brought in the ark of Jehovah, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had spread for it. And David offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before Jehovah.

¹⁸Ja kui Taavet oli lõpetanud põletus- ja tänuohvrite ohverdamise, siis ta õnnistas rahvast vägede Issanda nimel.

¹⁸And when David had ended offering up the burnt-offerings and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of Jehovah of hosts.

¹⁹Ja ta jagas kogu rahvale, kõigile Iisraeli hulkadele, niihästi meestele kui naistele, igaühele ühe leivakaku ning datli- ja rosinakoogi. Siis läks kogu rahvas ära, igaüks koju.

¹⁹And he dealt to all the people, to the whole multitude of Israel, both men and women, to every one a cake of bread, and a measure [of wine], and a raisin-cake. And all the people departed every one to his house.

²⁰Ja kui Taavet jõudis koju oma peret õnnistama, siis tuli Miikal, Sauli tütar, Taavetile vastu ja ütles: 'Kuidas küll Iisraeli kuningas on täna ennast austanud, paljastades ennast täna oma sulaste teenijate silme ees nagu alp, kes sel kombel ennast täiesti paljastab!'

²⁰And David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, How honourable did the king of Israel make himself to-day, who uncovered himself to-day in the eyes of the handmaids of his servants, as one of the lewd fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!

²¹Aga Taavet ütles Miikalile: 'Issanda ees, kes mind on valinud sinu isa ja kogu ta soo asemel ja kes käskis mind olla vürstiks Issanda rahvale Iisraelile, jah, Issanda ees olen ma tantsinud.

²¹And David said to Michal, It was before Jehovah, who chose me rather than thy father, and than all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of Jehovah, over Israel; and I played before Jehovah.

²²Ma tahan ennast alandada sellest veelgi rohkem ja olla iseenese silmis alandlik! Aga teenijate juures, kellest sa rääkisid, olen ma auväärne.'

²²And I will make myself yet more vile than thus, and will be base in mine own sight; and of the handmaids that thou hast spoken of, of them shall I be had in honour.

²³Ja Miikalil, Sauli tütrel, ei olnud last kuni surmani.

²³And Michal the daughter of Saul had no child to the day of her death.
