Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
World English Bible
1大衛 與千夫長、百夫長，就是一切首領商議。
1David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, even with every leader.
2大衛 對 以色列 全會眾說：「你們若以為美，見這事是出於耶和華－我們的上帝，我們就差遣人走遍 以色列 地，見我們未來的弟兄，又見住在有郊野之城的祭司 利未 人，使他們都到這裏來聚集。
2David said to all the assembly of Israel, “If it seems good to you, and if it is of the LORD our God, let’s send word everywhere to our brothers who are left in all the land of Israel, with whom the priests and Levites are in their cities that have pasture lands, that they may gather themselves to us.
3我們要把上帝的 約 櫃運到我們這裏來；因為在 掃羅 年間，我們沒有在 約 櫃前求問 上帝 。」
3Also, let’s bring the ark of our God back to us again, for we didn’t seek it in the days of Saul.”
4全會眾都說可以如此行；這事在眾民眼中都看為好。
4All the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
5於是， 大衛 將 以色列 人從 埃及 的 西曷河 直到 哈馬口 都招聚了來，要從 基列‧耶琳 將上帝的 約 櫃運來。
5So David assembled all Israel together, from the Shihor River of Egypt even to the entrance of Hamath, to bring God’s ark from Kiriath Jearim.
6大衛 率領 以色列 眾人上到 巴拉 ，就是屬 猶大 的 基列‧耶琳 ，要從那裏將 約 櫃運來。這 約 櫃就是坐在二基路伯上耶和華上帝留名的 約 櫃。
6David went up with all Israel to Baalah, that is, to Kiriath Jearim, which belonged to Judah, to bring up from there God the LORD’s ark that sits above the cherubim, that is called by the Name.
7他們將上帝的 約 櫃從 亞比拿達 的家裏抬出來，放在新車上。 烏撒 和 亞希約 趕車。
7They carried God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house; and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
8大衛 和 以色列 眾人在上帝前用琴、瑟、鑼、鼓、號作樂，極力跳舞歌唱。
8David and all Israel played before God with all their might, even with songs, with harps, with stringed instruments, with tambourines, with cymbals, and with trumpets.
9到了 基頓 的禾場；因為牛失前蹄， 烏撒 就伸手扶住 約 櫃。
9When they came to Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled.
10耶和華向他發怒，因他伸手扶住 約 櫃擊殺他，他就死在上帝面前。
10The LORD’s anger burned against Uzza, and he struck him because he put his hand on the ark; and he died there before God.
11大衛 因耶和華擊殺 烏撒 ，心裏愁煩，就稱那地方為 毗列斯‧烏撒 ，直到今日。
11David was displeased, because the LORD had broken out against Uzza. He called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
12那日， 大衛 懼怕上帝，說：「上帝的 約 櫃怎可運到我這裏來？」
12David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring God’s ark home to me?”
13於是 大衛 不將 約 櫃運進 大衛 的城，卻運到 迦特 人 俄別‧以東 的家中。
13So David didn’t move the ark with him into David’s city, but carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
14上帝的 約 櫃在 俄別‧以東 家中三個月，耶和華賜福給 俄別‧以東 的家和他一切所有的。
14God’s ark remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house three months; and the LORD blessed Obed-Edom’s house and all that he had.
