1 M arkaasaa Daa'uud wuxuu magaaladii Daa'uud ka dhistay guryo, oo sanduuqii Ilaahna meel buu u hagaajiyey, teendhona buu u dhisay.

David built houses for himself in the city of David. He made a place ready for the special box of God. And he set up a tent for it.

2 M arkaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, Waa inaan ninna qaadin sanduuqa Ilaah reer Laawi mooyaane, waayo, Rabbigu iyaguu u doortay inay qaadaan sanduuqa Ilaah, iyo inay isaga u adeegaan weligood.

Then David said, “No one but the Levites may carry the special box of God. For the Lord chose them to carry the special box of the agreement and to serve Him forever.”

3 O o Daa'uud reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan wuxuu ku soo wada ururiyey Yeruusaalem in sanduuqii Rabbiga la keeno meeshiisii uu u hagaajiyey.

David gathered all Israel together at Jerusalem, to bring up the special box of the Lord to the place he had made for it.

4 O o haddana Daa'uud wuxuu soo wada ururiyey reer Haaruun iyo reer Laawi.

He gathered together the sons of Aaron and the Levites.

5 K uwii reer Qohaad waxay ahaayeen Uurii'eel oo madax ahaa, iyo walaalihiis oo ahaa boqol iyo labaatan nin,

Uriel became leader of the sons of Kohath, and 120 of his brothers.

6 k uwii reer Meraariina, Casaayaah oo madax ahaa, iyo laba boqol iyo labaatan nin oo walaalihiis ahaa,

Asaiah became the leader of the sons of Merari, and 220 of his brothers.

7 k uwii reer Gershoomna, Yoo'eel oo madax ahaa, iyo boqol iyo soddon nin oo walaalihiis ahaa,

Joel became the leader of the sons of Gershom, and 130 of his brothers.

8 k uwii reer Eliisaafaanna, Shemacyaah oo madax ahaa, iyo laba boqol oo nin oo walaalihiis ahaa,

Shemaiah became the leader of the sons of Elizaphan, and 200 of his brothers.

9 k uwii reer Xebroonna, Elii'eel oo madax ahaa, iyo siddeetan nin oo walaalihiis ahaa,

Eliel became the leader of the sons of Hebron, and 80 of his brothers.

10 k uwii reer Cusii'eelna, Cammiinaadaab oo madax ahaa, iyo boqol iyo laba iyo toban nin oo walaalihiis ahaa.

Amminadab became the leader of the sons of Uzziel, and 112 of his brothers.

11 M arkaasaa Daa'uud u yeedhay Saadooq iyo Aabyaataar oo wadaaddada ahaa, iyo kuwii reer Laawi oo ahaa Uurii'eel, iyo Casaayaah, iyo Yoo'eel, iyo Shemacyaah, iyo Elii'eel, iyo Cammiinaadaab,

Then David called for Zadok and Abiathar the religious leaders. And he called for the Levites, Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel and Amminadab.

12 o o wuxuu ku yidhi, Idinku waxaad tihiin madaxdii qolooyinka reer Laawi, haddaba idinka iyo walaalihiinba isdaahiriya si aad sanduuqii Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil ugu soo qaaddaan meeshii aan u hagaajiyey.

He said to them, “You are the heads of the fathers’ houses of the Levites. Make yourselves and your brothers holy, that you may bring up the special box of the Lord God of Israel to the place I have made for it.

13 M axaa yeelay, indinku markii hore ma aydnaan qaadin, oo sidaas daraaddeed ayaa Rabbiga Ilaaheenna ahu degdeg inoogu qabtay, waayo, sidii qaynuunku ahaa wax kuma aynan weyddiin.

The Lord our God brought trouble upon us because you did not carry it the first time. We did not care for it the way He had told us.”

14 H addaba sidaas daraaddeed ayaa wadaaddadii iyo kuwii reer Laawi isdaahiriyeen inay soo qaadaan sanduuqii Rabbiga ah Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil.

So the religious leaders and the Levites made themselves holy, to bring up the special box of the Lord God of Israel.

15 M arkaasaa reer Laawi garbaha ku qaadeen sanduuqii Ilaah iyagoo ulihiisii ku sida, sidii Muuse amray oo uu eraygii Rabbigu ahaa.

The sons of the Levites carried the special box of God on their shoulders with the long pieces of wood. They did as Moses had told them by the Word of the Lord.

16 M arkaasaa Daa'uud madaxdii reer Laawi ku yidhi, Walaalihiin rag ka dhex doorta inay ahaadaan niman gabayaa ah oo sita alaabtii muusikada, oo ah shareerado, iyo kataarado, iyo suxuun laysku garaaco, oo aad ha uga dhawaajiyeen oo farxad aawadeed codka kor ha u qaadeen.

Then David told the heads of the Levites to choose their brothers who sing and play music. They were to play harps and timbrels and make sounds of joy.

17 S idaas daraaddeed reer Laawi waxay doorteen Heemaan oo ahaa ina Yoo'eel iyo walaalihiis oo ahaa Aasaaf ina Berekyaah, oo walaalahood reer Meraariina waxay ka doorteen Eetaan ina Quushaayaah,

So the Levites chose Heman the son of Joel. From his brothers they chose Asaph the son of Berechiah. From the sons of Merari their brothers, they chose Ethan the son of Kushaiah.

18 o o iyaga waxaa la jiray walaalahood oo ahaa darajadii labaad, waxayna ahaayeen Sekaryaah, iyo Been, iyo Yacasii'eel, iyo Shemiiraamood, iyo Yexii'eel, iyo Cunnii, iyo Elii'aab, iyo Benaayaah, iyo Macaseeyaah, iyo Matityaah, iyo Eliifeleehuu, iyo Miqneeyaah, iyo Cobeed Edoom, iyo Yecii'eel oo dhammaantood wada ahaa iridjoogayaal.

With them they chose their brothers of the second group. These were Zechariah, Jaaziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Benaiah, Maaseiah, Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-edom, and Jeiel, the gate-keepers.

19 S idaas daraaddeed kuwii gabayaagii ahaa oo ahaa Heemaan, iyo Aasaaf, iyo Eetaan waxay siteen suxuun naxaas ah oo laysku garaaco si ay aad ugaga dhawaajiyaan,

The singers, Heman, Asaph and Ethan were chosen to make sounds of joy with objects of brass.

20 o o Sekaryaah, iyo Casii'eel, iyo Shemiiraamood iyo Yexii'eel, iyo Cunnii, iyo Elii'aab, iyo Macaseeyaah, iyo Benaayaahna waxay siteen shareerado si ay ugu dhuftaan wax Calaamood lagu luuqeeyo,

Zechariah, Aziel, Shemiramoth, Jehiel, Unni, Eliab, Maaseiah and Benaiah were chosen to play the high sounds on harps.

21 o o Matityaah, iyo Eliifeleehuu, iyo Miqneeyaah, iyo Cobeed Edoom, iyo Yecii'eel, iyo Casasyaahna waxay siteen kataarado ay ku hoggaamiyaan wax Shemiiniid lagu luuqeeyo.

Mattithiah, Eliphelehu, Mikneiah, Obed-edom, Jeiel and Azaziah were chosen to lead by playing the deep sounds on different kinds of harps.

22 O o Kenanyaah oo madax u ahaa reer Laawina wuxuu u sarreeyey gabaygii, oo isagu wuxuu dadkii wax ka baray gabaygii, maxaa yeelay, aad buu u yiqiin.

Chenaniah, head of the Levites, was to lead the singing. He taught the singing because he was able.

23 O o Berekyaah iyo Elqaanaahna waxay iridjoogayaal u ahaayeen sanduuqii.

Berechiah and Elkanah were to watch the gate for the special box.

24 O o wadaaddadii ahaa Shebanyaah, iyo Yehooshaafaad, iyo Netaneel, iyo Camaasay, iyo Sekaryaah, iyo Benaayaah, iyo Eliiceserna turumbooyin ayay ku hor afuufayeen sanduuqii Ilaah, oo Cobeed Edoom iyo Yexiyaahna iridjoogayaal ayay sanduuqii u ahaayeen.

Shebaniah, Joshaphat, Nethanel, Amasai, Zechariah, Benaiah and Eliezer, the religious leaders, were to blow the horns in front of the special box of God. Obed-edom and Jehiah were gate-keepers for the special box of God also.

25 S idaas daraaddeed Daa'uud iyo odayaashii reer binu Israa'iil iyo kuwii kun kun u taliyeyba waxay u tageen inay sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga ka soo qaadaan gurigii Cobeed Edoom iyagoo faraxsan.

So David, the leaders of Israel and the captains of thousands went to bring up the special box with the Law of the Lord from the house of Obed-edom with joy.

26 O o markii Ilaah caawiyey kuwii reer Laawi oo qaaday sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga ayay toddoba dibi iyo toddoba wan ku allabaryeen.

God was helping the Levites who were carrying the special box of the agreement of the Lord. So they killed seven bulls and seven rams on the altar in worship.

27 O o Daa'uudna wuxuu xidhnaa dhar aad u wanaagsan, isaga iyo kuwii reer Laawi oo sanduuqa qaaday oo dhan, iyo nimankii gabayaaga ahaa, iyo Kenanyaah oo ahaa madaxdii gabayga oo la jiray nimankii gabayaaga ahaa, oo Daa'uudna wuxuu qabay eefod maro wanaagsan ah.

David was dressed in a long piece of clothing of fine linen. So were all the Levites who were carrying the special box of God. And so were the singers and Chenaniah the leader of the singing. David wore a linen vest also.

28 H addaba reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu saasay u soo qaadeen sanduuqii axdiga Rabbiga iyagoo dhawaaqaya, oo afuufaya buun iyo turumbooyin, oo ka dhawaajinaya suxuun laysku garaaco, iyo shareerado iyo kataarado.

So all Israel brought up the special box with the Law of the Lord. They brought it up with a loud voice, the sound of horns, and with loud-sounding timbrels and harps.

29 O o markii sanduuqii axdiga Rabbigu uu magaaladii Daa'uud imanayay ayay Miikaal oo ahayd ina Saa'uul daaqadda ka eegtay, oo kolkay aragtay Boqor Daa'uud oo cayaaraya ayay qalbiga ka quudhsatay.

When the special box with the Law of the Lord came to the city of David, Saul’s daughter Michal looked out of the window. She saw King David dancing and jumping for joy. And she hated him in her heart.
