1He made also houses for himself in the city of David: and built a place for the ark of God, and pitched a tabernacle for it.
1Pea naʻe langa ʻe Tevita ʻae ngaahi fale moʻona ʻi hono kolo, pea naʻa ne teuteu ha potu ki he puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua, mo ne fokotuʻu ki ai ha fale fehikitaki.
2Then David said: No one ought to carry the ark of God, but the Levites, whom the Lord hath chosen to carry it, and to minister unto himself for ever.
2Pea naʻe toki pehē ʻe Tevita, “ʻOku ʻikai lelei ke fua ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua ka ʻe he kau Livai pe: he ko kinautolu ia kuo fili ʻe Sihova ke fua ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua, pea ke tauhi kiate ia ʻo taʻengata.”
3And he gathered all Israel together into Jerusalem, that the ark of God might be brought into its place, which he had prepared for it.
3Pea naʻe tānaki fakataha ʻe Tevita ʻa ʻIsileli kātoa ki Selūsalema, koeʻuhi ke ʻohake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova ki hono potu, ʻaia naʻa ne teuteu ki ai.
4And the sons of Aaron also, and the Levites.
4Pea naʻe fakataha ʻe Tevita ʻae fānau ʻa ʻElone, mo e kau Livai:
5Of the children of Caath, Uriel was the chief, and his brethren a hundred and twenty.
5Mei he ngaahi foha ʻo Kohate; ʻa Ulieli ko honau ʻeiki, pea mo hono kāinga ko e toko teau mo e toko uofulu:
6Of the sons of Merari, Asaia the chief, and his brethren two hundred and twenty.
6Pea ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Melali: ko ʻAsaia, ko honau ʻeiki, pea mo hono kāinga ko e toko teau mo e toko uofulu:
7Of the sons of Gersom, Joel the chief, and his brethren a hundred and thirty.
7Pea ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Kesomi; ko Soeli ko honau ʻeiki, pea mo hono kāinga ko e toko teau mo e toko tolungofulu:
8Of the sons of Elisaphan, Semeias the chief: and his brethren two hundred.
8Pea ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo ʻElisafani; ko Simaia ko honau ʻeiki, pea mo hono kāinga ko e toko uangeau:
9Of the sons of Hebron, Eliel the chief: and his brethren eighty.
9Pea ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Hepeloni; ko Ilieli ko honau ʻeiki, pea mo hono kāinga ko e toko valungofulu:
10Of the sons of Oziel, Aminadab the chief: and his brethren a hundred and twelve.
10Pea ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo ʻUsili; ko ʻAminitapi ko honau ʻeiki, pea mo hono kāinga ko e toko teau mo e toko hongofulu ma ua.
11And David called Sadoc, and Abiathar the priests, and the Levites, Uriel, Asaia, Joel, Semeia, Eliel, and Aminadab:
11Pea naʻe ui mai ʻe Tevita kia Satoki mo ʻApiata ko e ongo taulaʻeiki, pea mo e kau Livai, kia Ulieli, mo ʻAsaia, mo Soeli, mo Simaia, mo Elieli, pea mo ʻAminitapi,
12And he said to them: You that are the heads of the Levitical families, be sanctified with your brethren, and brine the ark of the Lord the God of Israel to the place, which is prepared for it:
12ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Ko kimoutolu ko e kau tuʻukimuʻa ʻi he ngaahi tamai ʻae kakai Livai: mou fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakimoutolu, ʻio, ʻakimoutolu pea mo homou kāinga, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻomi ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ki he potu kuo u teuteu ki ai.
13Lest as the Lord at first struck us, because you were not present, the same should now also come to pass, by our doing some thing against the law.
13He ko e meʻa ʻi he ʻikai te mou fuofua ʻomi ia, ko ia naʻe teʻia ai ʻakitautolu ʻe Sihova ko hotau ʻOtua, koeʻuhi naʻe ʻikai te tau kumi kiate ia ʻo hangē ko hono anga ʻoku totonu.”
14So the priests and the Levites were sanctified, to carry the ark of the Lord the God of Israel.
14Ko ia naʻe fakamāʻoniʻoniʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he kau taulaʻeiki mo e kau Livai ke nau ʻohake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli.
15And the sons of Levi took the ark of God as Moses had commanded, according to the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders, with the staves.
15Pea naʻe fua ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua ʻe he fānau ʻa Livai ʻi honau uma ʻaki ʻa hono ngaahi kau haʻamo, ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻe Mōsese ʻo fakatatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova.
16And David spoke to the chiefs of the Levites, to appoint some of their brethren to be singers with musical instruments, to wit, on psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, that the joyful noise might resound on high.
16Pea naʻe lea ʻa Tevita ki he ʻeiki ʻoe kau Livai ke ne vaheʻi honau kāinga niʻihi ke fai ʻae hiva ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa hiva, ko e ngaahi ūtete, mo e ngaahi haʻape, mo e ngaahi ukamea pakihi, naʻe tatangi, ʻi he hiki hake ʻae leʻo ʻi he fiefia.
17And they appointed Levites, Hemam the son of Joel, and of his brethren Asaph the son of Barachias: and of the sons of Merari, their brethren: Ethan the son of Casaia.
17Ko ia naʻe vaheʻi ʻe he kau Livai ʻa Hemani ko e foha ʻo Soeli; pea ʻi hono kāinga ʻoʻona, ʻa ʻAsafi ko e foha ʻo Pelekia; pea mei he ngaahi foha ʻo Melali ko honau kāinga, ʻa Etani ko e foha ʻo Kusaia;
18And with them their brethren: in the second rank, Zacharias, and Ben, and Jaziel, and Semiramoth, and Jahiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Banaias, and Maasias, and Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias, and Obededom, and Jehiel, the porters.
18Pea naʻe fakataha mo kinautolu ʻa honau kāinga ʻo hono ua ʻoe lakanga, ko Sakalia, mo Peni, mo Seseeli, mo Similamoti, mo Sehieli, mo Uni, mo ʻIliapi, mo Penaia, mo Maaseia, mo Matitia, mo Elifili, mo Mikineia, mo ʻOpeti-ʻItomi, mo Sieli, ko e kau leʻo matapā.
19Now the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, sounded with cymbals of brass.
19Ko ia, naʻe vaheʻi ʻae kau hiva, ko Hemani, mo ʻAsafi, mo Etani, ke fakapakihi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa pakihi palasa;
20And Zacharias, and Oziel, and Semiramoth, and Jehiel, and Ani, and Eliab, and Maasias, and Banaias, sung mysteries upon psalteries.
20Pea ko Sakalia, mo ʻAsieli, mo Similamoti, mo Sehieli, mo Uni, mo ʻIliapi, mo Māseia, mo Penaia, ki he ngaahi ūtete ʻo hangē ko e leʻo fakafefine;
21And Mathathias, and Eliphalu, and Macenias and Obededom, and Jehiel and Ozaziu, sung a song of victory for the octave upon harps.
21Pea ko Matitia, mo Elifili, mo Mikineia, mo ʻOpeti-itomi, mo Sieli, mo ʻAsasia, ki he ngaahi haʻape naʻe leʻo lahi hake.
22And Chonenias chief of the Levites, presided over the prophecy, to give out the tunes: for he was very skillful.
22Pea naʻe ʻia Kinania ʻae fasi ʻoe hiva naʻe ekinaki ʻe ia ʻae hiva, he naʻa ne poto ai.
23And Barachias, and Elcana, were doorkeepers of the ark.
23Pea ko Pelekia mo ʻElikena ko e ongo tauhi matapā ʻakinaua ki he puha ʻoe fuakava.
24And Sebenias, and Josaphat, and Nathanael, and Amasai, and Zacharias, and Banaias, and Eliezer the priests, sounded with trumpets, before the ark of God: and Obededom and Jehias were porters of the ark.
24Pea ko Sipania, mo Sihosafate, mo Netanili, mo ʻAmasai, mo Sakalia, mo Penaia, mo ʻEliesa ko e kau taulaʻeiki, naʻe ifi ʻekinautolu ʻae ngaahi meʻalea ʻo muʻomuʻa ʻi he puha ʻoe fuakava ʻae ʻOtua: pea ko ʻOpeti-ʻItomi mo Sehia ko e ongo tauhi matapā ʻakinaua ki he puha ʻoe fuakava.
25So David and all the ancients of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring the ark of the covenant of the Lord out of the house of Obededom with joy.
25¶ Ko ia, naʻe ʻalu ʻa Tevita, mo e kau mātuʻa ʻo ʻIsileli, mo e ngaahi ʻeikitau naʻe pule ki he ngaahi toko afe, koeʻuhi ke nau ʻohake ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova mei he fale ʻo ʻOpeti-ʻItomi, ʻi he fiefia.
26And when God had helped the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, they offered in sacrifice seven oxen, and seven rams.
26Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene tokoni ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae kau Livai naʻe fua ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova, naʻa nau feilaulau ʻaki ʻae fanga pulu ʻe fitu, mo e fanga sipitangata ʻe fitu.
27And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that carried the ark, and the singing men, and Chonenias the ruler of the prophecy among the singers: and David also had on him an ephod of linen.
27Pea naʻe kofuʻaki ʻa Tevita ʻae kofu ʻoe tupenu lelei, pea naʻe pehē mo e kau Livai kotoa pē naʻe fua ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava, mo e kau hiva, pea pehē mo Kinania ko e tangata taki hiva mo e kau hiva: naʻe kofuʻaki foki ʻe Tevita ʻae ʻefoti ʻoe tupenu lelei.
28And all Israel brought the ark of the covenant of the Lord with joyful shouting, and sounding with the sound of the comet, and with trumpets, and cymbals, and psalteries, and harps.
28Naʻe pehē ʻae ʻomi ʻe ʻIsileli kātoa ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova ʻaki ʻae mavava, mo e ʻuʻulu ʻoe ngaahi nifoʻi manu, mo e ngaahi meʻalea, mo e ngaahi meʻa pakihi, mo e tatangi ʻoe ngaahi ūtete mo e ngaahi haʻape.
29And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord was come to the city of David, Michol the daughter of Saul looking out at a window, saw king David dancing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.
29Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻI heʻene aʻu atu ʻae puha ʻoe fuakava ʻa Sihova ki he Kolo ʻo Tevita, naʻe sio ʻa Mikale ko e ʻofefine ʻo Saula mei he matapā sioʻata, mo ne mamata ki he tuʻi ko Tevita ʻoku meʻe mo tā meʻa faiva: pea naʻa ne manuki kiate ia ʻi hono loto.
