¹A Dávid sa radil s veliteľmi tisícov a stov, so všetkými vojvodami.

¹And David consulteth with the heads of the thousands, and of the hundreds, every leader,

²A Dávid riekol celému shromaždeniu Izraelovmu: Jestli sa vám to vidí za dobré, a jestli je to od Hospodina, nášho Boha, pošlime čím skôr poslov k ostatným svojim bratom do všetkých zemí Izraelových a spolu s nimi aj ku kňazom a Levitom, ktorí bývajú v mestách svojich obvodov, a nech sa shromaždia k nám.

²and David saith to all the assembly of Israel, `If unto you it be good, and from Jehovah our God it hath broken forth — we send unto our brethren, those left in all the lands of Israel, and with them the priests and the Levites, in the cities of their suburbs, and they are gathered unto us,

³A dopravíme truhlu svojho Boha k sebe, lebo sme jej nehľadali vo dňoch Saulových.

³and we bring round the ark of our God unto us, for we sought Him not in the days of Saul.`

⁴Na to rieklo celé shromaždenie, že treba učiniť tak. Lebo ľúbila sa vec všetkému ľudu.

⁴And all the assembly say to do so, for the thing is right in the eyes of all the people.

⁵Vtedy shromaždil Dávid celého Izraela od Čierneho potoka egyptského až potiaľ, kde sa vchádza do Chamatu, aby dopravili truhlu Božiu z Kirjat-jearima.

⁵And David assembleth all Israel from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering in of Hamath, to bring in the ark of God from Kirjath-Jearim,

⁶A Dávid išiel hore i celý Izrael do Bály, do Kirjat-jearima, ktoré patrí Judsku, aby preniesli odtiaľ hore truhlu Boha Hospodina, tróniaceho nad cherubami, ktoré to meno sa vzýva.

⁶and David goeth up, and all Israel, to Baalah, unto Kirjath-Jearim that [is] to Judah, to bring up thence the ark of God Jehovah, inhabiting the cherubs, where the Name is called on.

⁷A tak viezli truhlu Božiu na novom voze z domu Abinadábovho, a Uza a Achio poháňali záprah vo voze.

⁷And they place the ark of God on a new cart, from the house of Abinadab, and Uzza and Ahio are leading the cart,

⁸A Dávid a celý Izrael vesele sa hrali pred Bohom z celej sily, a to pri spevoch a pri hudbe na harfy a citary, na bubny a cymbaly a na trúby.

⁸and David and all Israel are playing before God, with all strength, and with songs, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with cymbals, and with trumpets.

⁹A keď prišli až po humno Kídona, vystrel Uza svoju ruku, aby zachytil truhlu, lebo voly vybočily z cesty.

⁹And they come in unto the threshing-floor of Chidon, and Uzza putteth forth his hand to seize the ark, for the oxen were released,

¹⁰Preto sa zapálil hnev Hospodinov na Uzu a zabil ho, pretože vystrel svoju ruku na truhlu a zomrel tam pred Bohom.

¹⁰and the anger of Jehovah is kindled against Uzza, and He smiteth him, because that he hath put forth his hand on the ark, and he dieth there before God.

¹¹Vtedy sa nahneval Dávid, že Hospodin učinil takú trhlinu na Uzovi pre neopatrnosť, a pomenoval to miesto Pérec-uza, a tak sa volá až do tohoto dňa.

¹¹And it is displeasing to David, because Jehovah hath made a breach upon Uzza, and one calleth that place `Breach of Uzza` unto this day.

¹²A Dávid sa bál Boha v ten deň a povedal: Ako dopravím takto truhlu Božiu k sebe!

¹²And David feareth God on that day, saying, `How do I bring in unto me the ark of God?`

¹³Preto neuchýlil Dávid truhly k sebe, aby bola dopravená do mesta Dávidovho, ale spôsobil to, aby sa uhla do domu Obéd-edoma Gitťanského.

¹³And David hath not turned aside the ark unto himself, unto the city of David, and turneth it aside unto the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.

¹⁴A tak bývala truhla Božia s domom Obéd-edoma, v jeho dome, tri mesiace. A Hospodin požehnal dom Obéd-edoma i všetko, čo bolo jeho.

¹⁴And the ark of God dwelleth with the household of Obed-Edom, in his house, three months, and Jehovah blesseth the house of Obed-Edom, and all that he hath.
