Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1David consulted with the captains of thousands and of hundreds, even with every leader.
1Iniit autem consilium David cum tribunis, et centurionibus, et universis principibus,
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.
2et ait ad omnem cœtum Israël: Si placet vobis, et a Domino Deo nostro egreditur sermo quem loquor, mittamus ad fratres nostros reliquos in universas regiones Israël, et ad sacerdotes et Levitas qui habitant in suburbanis urbium, ut congregentur ad nos,
3Also, let’s bring the ark of our God back to us again, for we didn’t seek it in the days of Saul.”
3et reducamus arcam Dei nostri ad nos: non enim requisivimus eam in diebus Saul.
4All the assembly said that they would do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.
4Et respondit universa multitudo ut ita fieret: placuerat enim sermo omni populo.
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.
5Congregavit ergo David cunctum Israël, a Sihor Ægypti usque dum ingrediaris Emath, ut adduceret arcam Dei de Cariathiarim.
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.
6Et ascendit David, et omnis vir Israël, ad collem Cariathiarim, qui est in Juda, ut afferret inde arcam Domini Dei sedentis super cherubim, ubi invocatum est nomen ejus.
7They carried God’s ark on a new cart, and brought it out of Abinadab’s house; and Uzza and Ahio drove the cart.
7Imposueruntque arcam Dei super plaustrum novum, de domo Abinadab: Oza autem, et frater ejus minabant plaustrum.
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.
8Porro David, et universus Israël, ludebant coram Deo omni virtute in canticis, et in citharis, et psalteriis, et tympanis, et cymbalis, et tubis.
9When they came to Chidon’s threshing floor, Uzza put out his hand to hold the ark, for the oxen stumbled.
9Cum autem pervenisset ad aream Chidon, tetendit Oza manum suam, ut sustentaret arcam: bos quippe lasciviens paululum inclinaverat eam.
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.
10Iratus est itaque Dominus contra Ozam, et percussit eum, eo quod tetigisset arcam: et mortuus est ibi coram Domino.
11David was displeased, because the LORD had broken out against Uzza. He called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.
11Contristatusque est David, eo quod divisisset Dominus Ozam: vocavitque locum illum Divisio Ozæ, usque in præsentem diem.
12David was afraid of God that day, saying, “How can I bring God’s ark home to me?”
12Et timuit Deum tunc temporis, dicens: Quomodo possum ad me introducere arcam Dei?
13So David didn’t move the ark with him into David’s city, but carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house.
13et ob hanc causam non adduxit eam ad se, hoc est, in civitatem David, sed avertit in domum Obededom Gethæi.
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.
14Mansit ergo arca Dei in domo Obededom tribus mensibus: et benedixit Dominus domui ejus, et omnibus quæ habebat.
