¹Huchiin David sangte leh jate heutute, makai chiteng ngei toh thu a kikum ua.

¹And David consulted with the captains of thousands and hundreds, and with every leader.

²Huan Davidin Israel kikhawmte tengteng kiangah, Hoih na sak ua, TOUPA I Pathian ua kipan a hihleh, mun chitenga Israel gam tengteng nutsiata om i unaute kiangah thu I khak jak ding ua, loupa munte nei a khopite ua a kiang ua siampute leh Levimite om, huchia i kianga a hongkikhop khawm theihna ding un:

²And David said unto all the congregation of Israel, If it seem good unto you, and that it be of the LORD our God, let us send abroad unto our brethren every where, that are left in all the land of Israel, and with them also to the priests and Levites which are in their cities and suburbs, that they may gather themselves unto us:

³Huchiin I Pathian uh bawm i kilak nawn ding uhi: Saul hun laiin lah i nazong kei ua, a chi a.

³And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we inquired not at it in the days of Saul.

⁴Huan kikhawmpi tengtengin huchibangin i hih ding uh a chi ua: mi tengteng mit ah huai thil lah a dik ngala.

⁴And all the congregation said that they would do so: for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

⁵Huchiin Davidin Israel tengteng a kaikhawma, Aigupta gam luita Sihor akipan Hamath lutna chiang phain, Kiriath-jearim akipana Pathian bawm vala dingin.

⁵So David gathered all Israel together, from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjathjearim.

⁶Huan David a kuan tou-a, Israel tengteng leng, Baalah huaibel, Kiriath-jearim ah ahi, huaibel Judaa ahia, huai akipana Pathian, TOUPA Cherubimte tunga tupa, Aminlohna om vala tou dingin.

⁶And David went up, and all Israel, to Baalah, that is, to Kirjathjearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God the LORD, that dwelleth between the cherubim, whose name is called on it.

⁷Huan Pathian bawm kangtalai thakin a pua ua, Abinadab in akipan a la khia ua: huchiin Uzza leh Ahioin a hawl uhi.

⁷And they carried the ark of God in a new cart out of the house of Abinadab: and Uzza and Ahio drave the cart.

⁸Huchiin David leh Israel tengteng Pathian maah a hatna tengteng un late, kaihgingte, pekgingguisawmmneite, khuangtate, dakkhutbette leh pengkulte ngei toh lopna bawlin om uh.

⁸And David and all Israel played before God with all their might, and with singing, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.

⁹Huan Kidon buhchilna-phuala hongtun un, Uzzain bawm len dingin a khutin a sawka; bawngtalte lah a kipal ngal ua.

⁹And when they came unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.

¹⁰Huan Uzza tungah TOUPA hehna a soutaa, bawma a khut a koih jiakin, amah a hihlumta hi: huchiin huailaiah Pathian maah a sita.

¹⁰And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.

¹¹Huan TOUPA Uzza tunga a puahkhap jiakin, David a lungkimkei hi: huan huailai tuni tanin, Perez-uzza a chita hi.

¹¹And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzza: wherefore that place is called Perezuzza to this day.

¹²Huan huai niin Davidin Pathian a kihtaa, Bangchiin Pathian bawm in ka kitut dia? Chiin.

¹²And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God home to me?

¹³Huchiin Davidin David khopi sungah bawm a kiangah a suanta keia, Git mi Obed-edom in sungah a tuam puak zota hi.Huan Pathian bawm bel kha thum Obed-edom inkote kiangah a in sungah a oma: huan TOUPAN Obed-edom leh, a neih tengteng a vualjawlta hi.

¹³So David brought not the ark home to himself to the city of David, but carried it aside into the house of Obededom the Gittite.

¹⁴Huan Pathian bawm bel kha thum Obed-edom inkote kiangah a in sungah a oma: huan TOUPAN Obed-edom leh, a neih tengteng a vualjawlta hi.

¹⁴And the ark of God remained with the family of Obededom in his house three months. And the LORD blessed the house of Obededom, and all that he had.
