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

12 Então, avisaram a Davi, dizendo: Abençoou o Senhor a casa de Obede-Edom e tudo quanto tem, por amor da arca de Deus; foi, pois, Davi e trouxe a arca de Deus para cima, da casa de Obede-Edom, à Cidade de Davi, com alegria.

10 So David would not allow to have the ark of the Lord removed unto him into the city of David; but David had it carried round into the house of Obededom the Gittite.

11 And the ark of the Lord remained in the house of Obededom the Gittite three months: and the Lord blessed Obededom, and all his household.

12 And it was told to king David, saying, The Lord hath blessed the house of Obededom, and all that pertaineth unto him, because of the ark of God: and David then went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obededom into the city of David with joy.
