10 于是大卫不肯把耶和华的约柜运进大卫的城到他那里去， 却转运到迦特人俄别．以东的家里去。

11 耶和华的约柜在迦特人俄别．以东的家停留了三个月， 耶和华赐福给俄别．以东和他的全家。

12 有人告诉大卫王： "耶和华因为 神的约柜的缘故， 赐福给俄别．以东的家和一切属他的。"大卫就去， 欢欢喜喜把 神的约柜从俄别．以东的家中抬上大卫的城里去。

10 So David would not move Yahweh’s ark to be with him in David’s city; but David carried it aside into Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house. 11 Yahweh’s ark remained in Obed-Edom the Gittite’s house three months; and Yahweh blessed Obed-Edom and all his house. 12 King David was told, "Yahweh has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that belongs to him, because of God’s ark."

So David went and brought up God’s ark from the house of Obed-Edom into David’s city with joy.
