| ו:א וַיֹּסֶף עוֹד דָּוִד אֶת-כָּל-בָּחוּר בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל, שְׁלֹשִׁים אָלֶף. | 6:1 And David again gathered together all the chosen men of Israel, thirty thousand. |
| ב וַיָּקָם וַיֵּלֶךְ דָּוִד, וְכָל-הָעָם אֲשֶׁר אִתּוֹ, מִבַּעֲלֵי, יְהוּדָה--לְהַעֲלוֹת מִשָּׁם, אֵת אֲרוֹן הָא-לקים, אֲשֶׁר-נִקְרָא שֵׁם שֵׁם יקוק צְבָאוֹת יֹשֵׁב הַכְּרֻבִים, עָלָיו. | 2 And David arose, and went with all the people that were with him, from Baale-judah, to bring up from thence the ark of God, whereupon is called the Name, even the name of the LORD of hosts that sitteth upon the cherubim. |
| ג וַיַּרְכִּבוּ אֶת-אֲרוֹן הָא-לקים, אֶל-עֲגָלָה חֲדָשָׁה, וַיִּשָּׂאֻהוּ, מִבֵּית אֲבִינָדָב אֲשֶׁר בַּגִּבְעָה; וְעֻזָּא וְאַחְיוֹ, בְּנֵי אֲבִינָדָב, נֹהֲגִים, אֶת-הָעֲגָלָה חֲדָשָׁה. | 3 And they set the ark of God upon a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab that was in the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart. |
| ד וַיִּשָּׂאֻהוּ, מִבֵּית אֲבִינָדָב אֲשֶׁר בַּגִּבְעָה, עִם, אֲרוֹן הָא-לקים; וְאַחְיוֹ, הֹלֵךְ לִפְנֵי הָאָרוֹן. | 4 And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was in the hill, with the ark of God, and Ahio went before the ark. |
| ה וְדָוִד וְכָל-בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל, מְשַׂחֲקִים לִפְנֵי יקוק, בְּכֹל, עֲצֵי בְרוֹשִׁים; וּבְכִנֹּרוֹת וּבִנְבָלִים וּבְתֻפִּים, וּבִמְנַעַנְעִים וּבְצֶלְצֱלִים. | 5 And David and all the house of Israel played before the LORD with all manner of instruments made of cypress-wood, and with harps, and with psalteries, and with timbrels, and with sistra, and with cymbals. |
| ו וַיָּבֹאוּ, עַד-גֹּרֶן נָכוֹן; וַיִּשְׁלַח עֻזָּה אֶל-אֲרוֹן הָא-לקים, וַיֹּאחֶז בּוֹ--כִּי שָׁמְטוּ, הַבָּקָר. | 6 And when they came to the threshing-floor of Nacon, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen stumbled. |
| ז וַיִּחַר-אַף יקוק בְּעֻזָּה, וַיַּכֵּהוּ שָׁם הָא-לקים עַל-הַשַּׁל; וַיָּמָת שָׁם, עִם אֲרוֹן הָא-לקים. | 7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God. |
| ח וַיִּחַר לְדָוִד, עַל אֲשֶׁר פָּרַץ יקוק פֶּרֶץ בְּעֻזָּה; וַיִּקְרָא לַמָּקוֹם הַהוּא, פֶּרֶץ עֻזָּה, עַד, הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה. | 8 And David was displeased, because the LORD had broken forth upon Uzzah; and that place was called Perez-uzzah, unto this day. |
| ט וַיִּרָא דָוִד אֶת-יקוק, בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא; וַיֹּאמֶר, אֵיךְ יָבוֹא אֵלַי אֲרוֹן יקוק. | 9 And David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said: 'How shall the ark of the LORD come unto me?' |
| י וְלֹא-אָבָה דָוִד, לְהָסִיר אֵלָיו אֶת-אֲרוֹן יקוק--עַל-עִיר דָּוִד; וַיַּטֵּהוּ דָוִד, בֵּית עֹבֵד-אֱדֹם הַגִּתִּי. | 10 So David would not remove the ark of the LORD unto him into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. |
| יא וַיֵּשֶׁב אֲרוֹן יקוק בֵּית עֹבֵד אֱדֹם, הַגִּתִּי--שְׁלֹשָׁה חֳדָשִׁים; וַיְבָרֶךְ יקוק אֶת-עֹבֵד אֱדֹם, וְאֶת-כָּל-בֵּיתוֹ. | 11 And the ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months; and the LORD blessed Obed-edom, and all his house. |
| יב וַיֻּגַּד, לַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִד לֵאמֹר, בֵּרַךְ יקוק אֶת-בֵּית עֹבֵד אֱדֹם וְאֶת-כָּל-אֲשֶׁר-לוֹ, בַּעֲבוּר, אֲרוֹן הָא-לקים; וַיֵּלֶךְ דָּוִד, וַיַּעַל אֶת-אֲרוֹן הָא-לקים מִבֵּית עֹבֵד אֱדֹם עִיר דָּוִד--בְּשִׂמְחָה. | 12 And it was told king David, saying: 'The LORD hath blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that pertaineth unto him, 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. |
| יג וַיְהִי, כִּי צָעֲדוּ נֹשְׂאֵי אֲרוֹן-יקוק--שִׁשָּׁה צְעָדִים: וַיִּזְבַּח שׁוֹר, וּמְרִיא. | 13 And it was so, that when they that bore the ark of the LORD had gone six paces, he sacrificed an ox and a fatling. |
| יד וְדָוִד מְכַרְכֵּר בְּכָל-עֹז, לִפְנֵי יקוק; וְדָוִד, חָגוּר אֵפוֹד בָּד. | 14 And David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was girded with a linen ephod. |
| טו וְדָוִד וְכָל-בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל, מַעֲלִים אֶת-אֲרוֹן יקוק, בִּתְרוּעָה, וּבְקוֹל שׁוֹפָר. | 15 So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of the horn. |
| טז וְהָיָה אֲרוֹן יקוק, בָּא עִיר דָּוִד; וּמִיכַל בַּת-שָׁאוּל נִשְׁקְפָה בְּעַד הַחַלּוֹן, וַתֵּרֶא אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִד מְפַזֵּז וּמְכַרְכֵּר לִפְנֵי יקוק, וַתִּבֶז לוֹ, בְּלִבָּהּ. | 16 And it was so, as the ark of the LORD came into the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at the window, and saw king David leaping and dancing before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart. |
| יז וַיָּבִאוּ אֶת-אֲרוֹן יקוק, וַיַּצִּגוּ אֹתוֹ בִּמְקוֹמוֹ, בְּתוֹךְ הָאֹהֶל, אֲשֶׁר נָטָה-לוֹ דָּוִד; וַיַּעַל דָּוִד עֹלוֹת לִפְנֵי יקוק, וּשְׁלָמִים. | 17 And they brought in the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place, in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it; and David offered burnt-offerings and peace-offerings before the LORD. |
| יח וַיְכַל דָּוִד, מֵהַעֲלוֹת הָעוֹלָה וְהַשְּׁלָמִים; וַיְבָרֶךְ אֶת-הָעָם, בְּשֵׁם יקוק צְבָאוֹת. | 18 And when David had made an end of offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts. |
| יט וַיְחַלֵּק לְכָל-הָעָם לְכָל-הֲמוֹן יִשְׂרָאֵל, לְמֵאִישׁ וְעַד-אִשָּׁה, לְאִישׁ חַלַּת לֶחֶם אַחַת, וְאֶשְׁפָּר אֶחָד וַאֲשִׁישָׁה אֶחָת; וַיֵּלֶךְ כָּל-הָעָם, אִישׁ לְבֵיתוֹ. | 19 And he dealt among all the people, even among the whole multitude of Israel, both to men and women, to every one a cake of bread, and a cake made in a pan, and a sweet cake. So all the people departed every one to his house. |
