1 Chronicles, 15

1. Also, he made houses for himself in the City of David. And built a place for the ark of God, and he set up a tent for it.

1. Onda je David sazidao dvore u Davidovu gradu, pripravio mjesto za Kovèeg Božji i razapeo mu Šator.

2. Then David said: “It is illicit for anyone to carry the ark of God except the Levites, whom the Lord chose to carry it and to minister to himself, even unto eternity.”

2. Potom je rekao David: "Ne smije nositi Kovèeg Božji nitko osim levita, jer je njih izabrao Jahve da nose Kovèeg Jahvin i da mu služe dovijeka."

3. And he gathered all of Israel in Jerusalem, so that the ark of God might be brought into its place, which he had prepared for it.

3. David je sakupio sav Izrael u Jeruzalem da prenesu Kovèeg Jahvin gore na njegovo mjesto koje mu bijaše pripravio.

4. Certainly, there were both the sons of Aaron and the Levites:

4. Skupio je David i Aronove sinove i levite.

5. From the sons of Kohath, Uriel was the leader, and his brothers were one hundred twenty.

5. Od Kehatovih sinova: kneza Uriela i sto dvadeset njegove braæe;

6. From the sons of Merari: Asaiah was the leader, and his brothers were two hundred twenty.

6. od Merarijevih sinova: kneza Asaju i dvjesta dvadeset njegove braæe;

7. From the sons of Gershom: Joel was the leader, and his brothers were one hundred thirty.

7. od Geršomovih sinova: kneza Joela i sto trideset njegove braæe.

8. From the sons of Elizaphan: Shemaiah was the leader, and his brothers were two hundred.

8. Od Elisafanovih sinova: kneza Šemaju i dvjesta njegove braæe.

9. From the sons of Hebron: Eliel was the leader, and his brothers were eighty.

9. Od Hebronovih sinova: kneza Eliela i osamdeset njegove braæe;

10. From the sons of Uzziel: Amminadab was the leader, and his brothers were one hundred twelve.

10. od Uzielovih sinova: kneza Aminadaba i sto dvanaest njegove braæe.

11. And David summoned the priests, Zadok and Abiathar, and the Levites: Uriel, Asaiah, Joel, Shemaiah, Eliel, and Amminadab.

11. Tada David pozva sveæenike Sadoka i Ebjatara i levite Uriela, Asaju, Joela, Šemaju, Eliela i Aminadaba,

12. And he said to them: “You who are the leaders of the Levitical families, be sanctified with your brothers, and bring the ark of the Lord God of Israel to the place that has been prepared for it.

12. pa im reèe: "Vi ste glavari levitskih porodica; posvetite sebe i svoju braæu da prenesete gore Kovèeg Jahve, Izraelova Boga, na mjesto koje sam mu pripravio.

13. Otherwise, as it was before, when the Lord struck us because you were not present, so also it might be now, if we do what is illicit.”

13. Jer nas je pobio Jahve, Bog naš, zato što prvi put vi niste bili nazoèni i što ga nismo tražili onako kako je trebalo."

14. Therefore, the priests and the Levites were sanctified, so that they might carry the ark of the Lord God of Israel.

14. Posvetiše se tada sveæenici i leviti da prenesu gore Kovèeg Jahve, Izraelova Boga.

15. And the sons of Levi took the ark of God, just as Moses had instructed, in accord with the word of the Lord, upon their shoulders by the bars.

15. Levitski su sinovi ponijeli Božji Kovèeg, na svojim ramenima, o motkama, kako je zapovjedio Mojsije po Jahvinoj rijeèi.

16. And David spoke to the leaders of the Levites, so that they might appoint, from their brothers, singers with musical instruments, specifically, psalteries, and harps, and cymbals, so that a joyful noise might resound on high.

16. Tada David reèe levitskim knezovima da izmeðu svoje braæe postave pjevaèe s glazbalima, s harfama, citrama i cimbalima da se èuje i da gromko odjekuje radosno pjevanje.

17. And they appointed from the Levites: Heman, the son of Joel; and from his brothers, Asaph, the son of Berechiah; and truly, from their brothers, the sons of Merari: Ethan, the son of Kushaiah.

17. Leviti su postavili Joelova sina Hemana, a od njegove braæe Berekjina sina Asafa, i od njihove braæe, Merarijevih sinova, Kušajina sina Etana.

18. And with them were their brothers in the second rank: Zechariah, and Ben, and Jaaziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jahiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Maaseiah, and Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah, and Obededom, and Jeiel, who were gatekeepers.

18. S njima njihovu braæu drugoga reda: Zahariju, sina Jaazielova, Šemiramota, Jehiela, Unija, Eliaba, Benaju, Maaseju, Matitju, Eliflehua, Mikneju, Obed Edoma i Jeiela, vratare.

19. Now the singers, Heman, Asaph, and Ethan, were sounding out with cymbals of brass.

19. A pjevaèi, Heman, Asaf i Etan gromko su udarali u mjedene cimbale.

20. And Zechariah, and Aziel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Unni, and Eliab, and Maaseiah, and Benaiah were singing mysteries with the psalteries.

20. A Zaharija, Uziel, Šemiramot, Jehiel, Uni, Eliab, Maaseja i Benaja u harfe s visokim zvucima;

21. Then Mattithiah, and Eliphelehu, and Mikneiah and Obededom, and Jeiel and Azaziah were singing a song of victory with the harps, for the octave.

21. a Matitja, Eliflehu, Mikneja, Obed Edom, Jeiel i Azazja u citre, u osminskoj pratnji.

22. Now Chenaniah, the leader of the Levites, was foremost over the prophecies, in order to mark out in advance the melodies. For indeed, he was very skillful.

22. Kenanja, knez onih levita koji su nosili Kovèeg, upravljao je prenošenjem jer je bio vješt u tome.

23. And Berechiah and Elkanah were porters of the ark.

23. Berekja i Elkana bili su vratari kod Kovèega.

24. And the priests, Shebaniah, and Joshaphat, and Nethanel, and Amasai, and Zechariah, and Benaiah, and Eliezer, were sounding the trumpets before the ark of God. And Obededom and Jehiah were porters of the ark.

24. Šebanija, Jošafat, Netanel, Amasaj, Zaharija, Benaja i Eliezer, sveæenici, trubili su u trube pred Božjim Kovèegom; Obed Edom i Jehija bili su vratari kod Kovèega.

25. Therefore, David, and all those greater by birth of Israel, and the tribunes, went to carry the ark of the covenant of the Lord from the house of Obededom with rejoicing.

25. Tako je David s izraelskim starješinama i tisuænicima radosno išao prenoseæi gore Kovèeg saveza Jahvina iz Obed-Edomove kuæe.

26. And when God had assisted the Levites, who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the Lord, they immolated seven bulls and seven rams.

26. Kad je Bog pomogao levitima koji su nosili Kovèeg saveza Jahvina, žrtvovali su sedam junaca i sedam ovnova.

27. Now David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, as were all the Levites who were carrying the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah, the leader of the prophecy among the singers. But David was also clothed with a linen ephod.

27. David bijaše ogrnut plaštem od tanka platna, a tako i svi leviti što su nosili Kovèeg, kao i pjevaèi i Kenanija koji je upravljao pjevaèima. David je imao na sebi lanen opleæak.

28. And all of Israel were leading back the ark of the covenant of the Lord with jubilation, sounding out with the noise of horns, and trumpets, and cymbals, and psalteries, and harps.

28. Tako je sav Izrael prenosio gore Kovèeg saveza Jahvina, radosno klièuæi uz jeku rogova, truba i cimbala, igrajuæi uza zvuke harfe i citre.

29. And when the ark of the covenant of the Lord had arrived in the City of David, Michal, the daughter of Saul, gazing through a window, saw king David dancing and playing, and she despised him in her heart.

29. Kad je Kovèeg saveza Jahvina ulazio u Davidov grad, Šaulova kæi Mikala, gledajuæi s prozora, vidje kralja Davida kako skaèe i igra i prezre ga ona u svom srcu.
