Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1Then David conferred with all his leaders, the commanders of hundreds and of thousands.
1Καὶ ἐβουλεύσατο Δαυὶδ μετὰ τῶν χιλιάρχων καὶ τῶν ἑκατοντάρχων, παντὶ ἡγουμένῳ.
2And he said to the whole assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if this is of the LORD our God, let us send word far and wide to the rest of our brothers in all the land of Israel, and also to the priests and Levites in their cities and pasturelands, so that they may join us.
2Καὶ εἶπε Δαυὶδ πάσῃ ἐκκλησίᾳ Ἰσραὴλ, εἰ ἐφʼ ὑμῖν ἀγαθὸν, καὶ παρὰ Κυρίου τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν εὐοδωθῇ, ἀποστείλωμεν πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς ἡμῶν τοὺς ὑπολελειμμένους ἐν πάσῃ γῇ Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ μετʼ αὐτῶν οἱ ἱερεῖς οἱ Λευῖται ἐν πόλεσι κατασχέσεως αὐτῶν, καὶ συναχθήσονται πρὸς ἡμᾶς,
3Then let us bring back the ark of our God, for we did not inquire of Him in the days of Saul.”
3καὶ μετενέγκωμεν τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἡμῶν πρὸς ἡμᾶς, ὅτι οὐκ ἐζήτησαν αὐτὴν ἀφʼ ἡμερῶν Σαούλ.
4And because this proposal seemed right to all the people, the whole assembly agreed to it.
4Καὶ εἶπε πᾶσα ἡ ἐκκλησία τοῦ ποιῆσαι οὕτως, ὅτι εὐθὺς ὁ λόγος ἐν ὀφθαλμοῖς παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ.
5So David assembled all Israel, from the River Shihor in Egypt to Lebo-hamath, to bring the ark of God from Kiriath-jearim.
5Καὶ ἐξεκκλησίασε Δαυὶδ τὸν πάντα Ἰσραὴλ ἀπὸ ὁρίων Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἕως εἰσόδου Ἡμὰθ τοῦ εἰσενέγκαι τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐκ πόλεως Ἰαρίμ.
6David and all Israel went up to Baalah of Judah (that is, Kiriath-jearim) to bring up from there the ark of God the LORD, who is enthroned between the cherubim—the ark that is called by the Name.
6Καὶ ἀνήγαγεν αὐτὴν Δαυίδ· καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ ἀνέβη εἰς πόλιν Δαυὶδ, ἣ ἦν τοῦ Ἰούδα, τοῦ ἀναγαγεῖν ἐκεῖθεν τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ Κυρίου καθημένου ἐπὶ χερουβὶμ, οὗ ἐπεκλήθη ὄνομα αὐτοῦ.
7So they carried the ark of God from the house of Abinadab on a new cart, with Uzzah and Ahio guiding the cart.
7Καὶ ἐπέθηκαν τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐφʼ ἅμαξαν καινὴν ἐξ οἴκου Ἀμιναδάβ· καὶ Ὀζὰ καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ ἦγον τὴν ἅμαξαν.
8David and all the Israelites were celebrating before God with all their might, with songs and on harps and lyres, with tambourines, cymbals, and trumpets.
8Καὶ Δαυὶδ καὶ πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ παίζοντες ἐναντίον τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐν πάσῃ δυνάμει, καὶ ἐν ψαλτῳδοῖς, καὶ ἐν κινύραις, καὶ ἐν νάβλαις, ἐν τυμπάνοις, καὶ ἐν κυμβάλοις, καὶ ἐν σάλπιγξι.
9When they came to the threshing floor of Chidon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark, because the oxen had stumbled.
9Καὶ ἤλθοσαν ἕως τῆς ἅλωνος· καὶ ἐξέτεινεν Ὀζὰ τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ τοῦ κατασχεῖν τὴν κιβωτὸν, ὅτι ἐξέκλινεν αὐτὴν ὁ μόσχος.
10And the anger of the LORD burned against Uzzah, and He struck him down because he had put his hand on the ark. So he died there before God.
10Καὶ ἐθυμώθη Κύριος ὀργῇ ἐπὶ Ὀζά, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ διὰ τὸ ἐκτεῖναι τὴν χεῖρα αὑτοῦ ἐπὶ τὴν κιβωτὸν, καὶ ἀπέθανεν ἐκεῖ ἀπέναντι τοῦ Θεοῦ·
11Then David became angry because the LORD had burst forth against Uzzah; so he named that place Perez-uzzah, as it is called to this day.
11Καὶ ἠθύμησε Δαυὶδ, ὅτι διέκοψε Κύριος διακοπὴν ἐν Ὀζὰ, καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸν τόπον ἐκεῖνον, Διακοπὴ Ὀζὰ, ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης.
12That day David feared God and asked, “How can I ever bring the ark of God to me?”
12Καὶ ἐφοβήθη Δαυὶδ τὸν Θεὸν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, λέγων, πῶς εἰσοίσω τὴν κιβωτὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ πρὸς ἐμαυτόν;
13So he did not move the ark with him to the City of David; instead, he took it aside to the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.
13Καὶ οὐκ ἀπέστρεψε Δαυὶδ τὴν κιβωτὸν πρὸς ἑαυτὸν εἰς πόλιν Δαυὶδ, καὶ ἐξέκλινεν αὐτὴν εἰς οἶκον Ἀβεδδαρὰ τοῦ Γεθαίου.
14Thus the ark of God remained with the family of Obed-edom in his house for three months, and the LORD blessed his household and everything he owned.
14Καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἡ κιβωτὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐν οἴκῳ Ἀβεδδαρὰ τρεῖς μῆνας· καὶ εὐλόγησεν ὁ Θεὸς Ἀβεδδαρὰ, καὶ πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ.
