10 Não quis Davi retirar para junto de si a arca do Senhor, para a Cidade de Davi; mas a fez levar à casa de Obede-Edom, o geteu. 11 Ficou a arca do Senhor em casa de Obede-Edom, o geteu, três meses; e o Senhor o abençoou e a toda a sua casa.

12 Então, avisaram a Davi, dizendo: O Senhor abençoou a casa de Obede-Edom e tudo quanto tem, por amor da arca de Deus; foi, pois, Davi e, com alegria, fez subir a arca de Deus da casa de Obede-Edom, à Cidade de Davi.

10 So David would not remove the ark of Jehovah unto him into the city of David; but David carried it aside into the house of Obed-edom the Gittite. 11 And the ark of Jehovah remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months: and Jehovah blessed Obed-edom, and all his house.

12 And it was told king David, saying, Jehovah hath blessed the house of Obed-edom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark of God. And David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the city of David with joy.

10 He was not willing to take the ark of the LORD to be with him in the City of David. Instead, he took it to the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.

11 The ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite for three months, and the LORD blessed him and his entire household.

12 Now King David was told, "The LORD has blessed the household of Obed-Edom and everything he has, because of the ark of God." So David went to bring up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with rejoicing.
