10 So David would not bring the ark of Jehovah home unto himself 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 household.

12 And it was told king David, saying, Jehovah has blessed the house of Obed-Edom, and all that is his, 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 Og David vilde ikke flytte Herrens ark op til sig i Davids stad, men lot den føre bort til gittitten Obed-Edoms hus.

11 Herrens ark blev stående i gittitten Obed-Edoms hus i tre måneder, og Herren velsignet Obed-Edom og alt hans hus.

12 Så kom det nogen og fortalte kong David at Herren hadde velsignet Obed-Edoms hus og alt det han hadde, for Guds arks skyld. Da tok David avsted og førte Guds ark fra Obed-Edoms hus op til Davids stad med stor glede.
