2 Samuel 6

1 And David got together all the fighting-men of Israel to the number of thirty thousand;

大卫又聚集以色列中所有挑选的人三万。

2 And David, and all the people who were with him, went to Baal of Judah to get the ark of God, over which the holy name is named, the name of the Lord of armies, whose place is between the winged ones.

大卫起身，率领跟随他的众人前往，要从巴拉·犹大将 神的约柜运来；这约柜就是坐在二基路伯上万军之耶和华留名的约柜。

3 And they put the ark of God on a new cart and took it out of the house of Abinadab which was on the hill: and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were the drivers of the cart.

他们将 神的约柜从冈上亚比拿达的家里抬出来，放在新车上；亚比拿达的两个儿子乌撒和亚希约赶这新车。

4 And Uzzah went by the side of the ark, while Ahio went before it.

他们将 神的约柜从冈上亚比拿达家里抬出来的时候，亚希约在柜前行走。

5 And David and all the men of Israel made melody before the Lord with all their power, with songs and with corded instruments and instruments of brass.

大卫和以色列的全家在耶和华面前，用松木制造的各样乐器和琴、瑟、鼓、钹、锣，作乐跳舞。

6 And when they came to Nacon's grain-floor, Uzzah put his hand on the ark of God to keep it safe in its place, for the oxen were out of control.

到了拿艮的禾场，因为牛失前蹄，乌撒就伸手扶住 神的约柜。

7 And the wrath of the Lord, burning against Uzzah, sent destruction on him because he had put his hand on the ark, and death came to him there by the ark of God.

神耶和华向乌撒发怒，因这错误击杀他，他就死在 神的约柜旁。

8 And David was angry because of the Lord's outburst of wrath against Uzzah: and he gave that place the name Perez-uzzah, which is its name to this day.

大卫因耶和华击杀乌撒，心里愁烦，就称那地方为毗列斯·乌撒，直到今日。

9 And such was David's fear of the Lord that day, that he said, How may I let the ark of God come to me?

那日，大卫惧怕耶和华，说：“耶和华的约柜怎可运到我这里来？”

10 So David did not let the ark of the Lord come back to him to the town of David: but had it turned away and put into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite.

于是大卫不肯将耶和华的约柜运进大卫的城，却运到迦特人俄别·以东的家中。

11 And the ark of the Lord was in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite for three months: and the Lord sent a blessing on Obed-edom and all his family.

耶和华的约柜在迦特人俄别·以东家中三个月；耶和华赐福给俄别·以东和他的全家。

12 And they said to King David, The blessing of the Lord is on the family of Obed-edom and on all he has, because of the ark of God. And David went and took the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the town of David with joy.

有人告诉大卫王说：“耶和华因为约柜赐福给俄别·以东的家和一切属他的。”大卫就去，欢欢喜喜地将 神的约柜从俄别·以东家中抬到大卫的城里。

13 And when those who were lifting the ark of the Lord had gone six steps, he made an offering of an ox and a fat young beast.

抬耶和华约柜的人走了六步，大卫就献牛与肥羊为祭。

14 And David, clothed in a linen ephod, was dancing before the Lord with all his strength.

大卫穿着细麻布的以弗得，在耶和华面前极力跳舞。

15 So David and all the men of Israel took up the ark of the Lord with cries of joy and sounding of horns.

这样，大卫和以色列的全家欢呼吹角，将耶和华的约柜抬上来。

16 And when the ark of the Lord came into the town of David, Michal, Saul's daughter, looking out of the window, saw King David dancing and jumping before the Lord; and to her mind he seemed foolish.

耶和华的约柜进了大卫城的时候，扫罗的女儿米甲从窗户里观看，见大卫王在耶和华面前踊跃跳舞，心里就轻视他。

17 And they took in the ark of the Lord, and put it in its place inside the tent which David had put up for it: and David made burned offerings and peace-offerings to the Lord.

众人将耶和华的约柜请进去，安放在所预备的地方，就是在大卫所搭的帐幕里。大卫在耶和华面前献燔祭和平安祭。

18 And after David had made the burned offerings and the peace-offerings, he gave the people a blessing in the name of the Lord of armies.

大卫献完了燔祭和平安祭，就奉万军之耶和华的名给民祝福，

19 And he gave to every man and woman among all the people, among all the masses of Israel, a cake of bread and a measure of wine and a cake of dry grapes. Then all the people went away, every man to his house.

并且分给以色列众人，无论男女，每人一个饼，一块肉，一个葡萄饼；众人就各回各家去了。

20 Then David came back to give a blessing to his family. And Michal, Saul's daughter, came out to him and said, How full of glory was the king of Israel today, who let himself be seen uncovered by his servant-girls like a foolish person uncovering himself without shame!

大卫回家要给眷属祝福；扫罗的女儿米甲出来迎接他，说：“以色列王今日在臣仆的婢女眼前露体，如同一个轻贱人无耻露体一样，有好大的荣耀啊！”

21 And David said to Michal, I was dancing before the Lord, who put me over your father and all his sons, to make me a ruler over the people of the Lord, over his people Israel: and I will go on playing before the Lord;

大卫对米甲说：“这是在耶和华面前；耶和华已拣选我，废了你父和你父的全家，立我作耶和华民以色列的君，所以我必在耶和华面前跳舞。

22 And I will do even worse than this, and make myself even lower in your eyes: but the servant-girls of whom you were talking will give me honour.

我也必更加卑微，自己看为轻贱。你所说的那些婢女，她们倒要尊敬我。”

23 And Michal, Saul's daughter, had no child till the day of her death.

扫罗的女儿米甲，直到死日，没有生养儿女。
