H1732
And David
H3289 [H8735]
consulted
H8269
with the captains
H505
of thousands
H3967
and of hundreds,
H5057
and with every leader.
2
H1732
And David
H559 [H8799]
said
H6951
to all the congregation
H3478
of Israel,
H2895 [H8804]
If it seemeth good
H3068
to you, and that it is of the LORD
H430
our God,
H7971 [H8799]
let us send
H6555 [H8799]
abroad
H251
to our brethren
H7604 [H8737]
every where, that are left
H776
in all the land
H3478
of Israel,
H3548
and with them also to the priests
H3881
and Levites
H5892
who are in their cities
H4054
and common lands,
H6908 [H8735]
that they may assemble to us:
3
H5437 [H8686]
And let us bring again
H727
to us the ark
H430
of our God:
H1875 [H8804]
for we enquired
H3117
not at it in the days
H7586
of Saul.
4
H6951
And all the congregation
H559 [H8799]
said
H6213 [H8800]
that they would do so:
H1697
for the thing
H3474 [H8804]
was straight
H5869
in the eyes
H5971
of all the people.
5
H1732
So David
H6950 [H8686]
congregated
H3605
all
H3478
Israel,
H7883
from Shihor
H4714
of Egypt
H935 [H8800]
even to the entrance
H2574
of Hemath,
H935 [H8687]
to bring
H727
the ark
H430
of God
H7157
from Kirjathjearim.
6
H1732
And David
H5927 [H8799]
went up,
H3478
and all Israel,
H1173
to Baalah,
H7157
that is, to Kirjathjearim,
H3063
which belonged to Judah,
H5927 [H8687]
to bring up
H727
from there the ark
H430
of God
H3068
the LORD,
H3427 [H8802]
that dwelleth
H3742
between the cherubim,
H8034
whose name
H7121 [H8738]
is called on it.
7
H7392 [H8686]
And they carried
H727
the ark
H430
of God
H2319
in a new
H5699
cart
H1004
out of the house
H41
of Abinadab:
H5798
and Uzza
H283
and Ahio
H5090 [H8802]
drove
H5699
the cart.
8
H1732
And David
H3478
and all Israel
H7832 [H8764]
played
H6440
at the face of
H430
God
H5797
with all their might,
H7892
and with singing,
H3658
and with harps,
H5035
and with psalteries,
H8596
and with timbrels,
H4700
and with cymbals,
H2689
and with trumpets.
9
H935 [H8799]
And when they came
H1637
to the threshingfloor
H3592
of Chidon,
H5798
Uzza
H7971 [H8799]
put forth
H3027
his hand
H270 [H8800]
to hold
H727
the ark;
H1241
for the oxen
H8058 [H8804]
stumbled.
10
H639
And the anger
H3068
of the LORD
H2734 [H8799]
was kindled
H5798
against Uzza,
H5221 [H8686]
and he smote
H7971 [H8804]
him, because he put
H3027
his hand
H727
to the ark:
H4191 [H8799]
and there he died
H6440
at the face of
H430
God.
11
H1732
And David
H2734 [H8799]
was displeased,
H3068
because the LORD
H6555 H6556 [H8804]
had broken forth
H5798
upon Uzza:
H4725
therefore that place
H7121 [H8799]
is called
H6560
Perezuzza
H3117
to this day.
12
H1732
And David
H3372 [H8799]
was afraid
H430
of God
H3117
that day,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H1963
How
H935 [H8686]
shall I bring
H727
the ark
H430
of God home to me?
