1 أخبار 11
| وَتَجَمَّعَ كُلُّ رُؤَسَاءِ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ حَوْلَ دَاوُدَ فِي حَبْرُونَ وَقَالُوا: «نَحْنُ مِنْ لَحْمِكَ وَدَمِكَ، | ١ 1 |
All the Israelites gathered to meet with David in Hebron. They told him, “We are your flesh and blood.
| وَقَدْ كُنْتَ قَائِدَنَا، تَخُوضُ الْمَعَارِكَ فِي طَلِيعَتِنَا مُنْذُ الأَيَّامِ السَّابِقَةِ حِينَ كَانَ شَاوُلُ مَلِكاً عَلَيْنَا، وَقَدْ قَالَ لَكَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ: أَنْتَ تَرْعَى شَعْبِي وَتَتَوَلَّى حُكْمَهُ». | ٢ 2 |
In recent times, even though Saul was king, you were the real leader of Israel. The Lord your God told you, ‘You will be the shepherd of my people, and you will be the leader of my people Israel.’”
| وَعِنْدَمَا اجْتَمَعَ جَمِيعُ شُيُوخِ إِسْرِائِيلَ إِلَى الْمَلِكِ فِي حَبْرُونَ أَبْرَمَ مَعَهُمْ عَهْداً أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، فَمَسَحُوهُ مَلِكاً عَلَيْهِمْ تَتْمِيماً لِكَلامِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي نَطَقَ بِهِ عَلَى لِسَانِ صَمُوئِيلَ. | ٣ 3 |
All the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a solemn agreement with them before the Lord. There they anointed David as king of Israel, as the Lord had promised through Samuel.
| وَتَوَجَّهَ دَاوُدُ عَلَى رَأْسِ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، أَيْ يَبُوسَ الآهِلَةِ بِسُكَّانِهَا الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ. | ٤ 4 |
Then David and all the Israelites went to Jerusalem (formerly known as Jebus) where the Jebusites lived.
| فَقَالَ الْيَبُوسِيُّونَ لِدَاوُدَ: «لا يُمْكِنُكَ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ إِلَى هُنَا». فَاسْتَوْلَى دَاوُدُ عَلَى قَلْعَةِ صِهْيَوْنَ الَّتِي دُعِيَتْ فِي مَا بَعْدُ مَدِينَةَ دَاوُدَ. | ٥ 5 |
The Jebusites told David, “You will not enter here!” But David did capture the fortress of Zion, now known as the City of David.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ دَاوُدُ لِرِجَالِهِ: «إِنَّ مَنْ يَقْتَحِمُ الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ يُصْبِحُ قَائِداً لِلْجَيْشِ». فَهَاجَمَهُمْ يُوآبُ ابْنُ صُرُوِيَّةَ أَوَّلاً، وَأَصْبَحَ هُوَ الْقَائِدَ. | ٦ 6 |
David had said, “Whoever is first to attack the Jebusites will be my commander-in-chief.” Since Joab, son of Zeruiah, was the first, he became commander-in-chief.
| وَمَكَثَ دَاوُدُ فِي الْحِصْنِ فَدُعِيَ لِذَلِكَ مَدِينَةَ دَاوُدَ. | ٧ 7 |
David decided to love in the fortress, which is why they named it after him the City of David.
| وَبَنَى الْمَدِينَةَ مِنْ حَوْلِهَا ابْتِدَاءً مِنَ الْقَلْعَةِ إِلَى السُّورِ الْمُحِيطِ بِها. ثُمَّ قَامَ يُوآبُ بِتَجْدِيدِ سَائِرِ الْمَدِينَةِ. | ٨ 8 |
He built up the city all around it, from the Millo in a circuit all around, while Joab repaired the rest of the city.
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يَزْدَادُ عُلُوَّ شَأْنٍ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ كَانَ مَعَهُ. | ٩ 9 |
David became more and more powerful, for the Lord Almighty was with him.
| وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ الرِّجَالِ الَّذِينَ آزَرُوهُ مَعَ بَقِيَّةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَجْعَلُوهُ مَلِكاً، بِمُقْتَضَى وَعْدِ الرَّبِّ الْمُتَعَلِّقِ بِإِسْرَائِيلَ، | ١٠ 10 |
These were the leaders of David's powerful warriors who, along with all the Israelites, gave him strong support in becoming king, just as the Lord had promised would happen to Israel.
| وَهَؤُلاءِ هُمْ أَبْطَالُ دَاوُدَ: يَشُبْعَامُ بْنُ حَكْمُونِي، رَئِيسُ الأَبْطَالِ الثَّلاثَةِ، هَاجَمَ بِرُمْحِهِ ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَقَتَلَهُمْ دُفْعَةً وَاحِدَةً. | ١١ 11 |
This is the list of the leading warriors who supported David: Jashobeam, son of Hachmoni, leader of the Three. Using his spear, he once killed 300 men in a single battle.
| ثُمَّ أَلِعَازَارُ بْنُ دُودُو الأَخُوخِيُّ، وَهُوَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الأَبْطَالِ الثَّلاثَةِ. | ١٢ 12 |
After him came Eleazar, son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the Three leading warriors.
| كَانَ مَعَ دَاوُدَ فِي فَسَّ دَمِّيمَ حِينَ احْتَشَدَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ لِلْحَرْبِ فِي حَقْلِ شَعِيرٍ، فَهَرَبَ الْجَيْشُ أَمَامَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ. | ١٣ 13 |
He was with David at Pas-dammin when the Philistines gathered for battle that took place in a field full of barley. The Israelite army ran away when the Philistines attacked,
| غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ ثَبَتَ مَعَ رِجَالِهِ فِي وَسَطِ الْحَقْلِ وَأَنْقَذَهُ وَقَضَى عَلَى الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، فَآتَاهُمُ الرَّبُّ نُصْرَةً عَظِيمَةً. | ١٤ 14 |
but David and Eleazar took a stand in the middle of the field, defending their ground and killing the Philistines. The Lord saved them by giving them a great victory.
| وَانْحَدَرَ ثَلاثَةٌ مِنَ الثَّلاثِينَ قَائِداً إِلَى الْمِنْطَقَةِ الصَّخْرِيَّةِ حَيْثُ كَانَ دَاوُدُ يُقِيمُ فِي مَغَارَةِ عَدُلَّامَ، بَيْنَمَا جَيْشُ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مُعَسْكِرٌ فِي وَادِي الرَّفَائِيِّينَ. | ١٥ 15 |
Another time, the Three, who were part of the Thirty leading warriors, went down to meet David when he was at the cave of Adullam. The Philistine army was camped in the valley of Rephaim.
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ آنَئِذٍ مُتَمَنِّعاً فِي الْحِصْنِ، وَحَامِيَةُ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ قَدِ احْتَلَّتْ بَيْتَ لَحْمٍ. | ١٦ 16 |
At the time David was in the stronghold, and the Philistine garrison was in Bethlehem.
| فَتَأَوَّهَ دَاوُدُ وَقَالَ: «مَنْ يَسْقِينِي مَاءً مِنْ بِئْرِ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ الْقَائِمَةِ عِنْدَ بَوَّابَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ؟» | ١٧ 17 |
David was feeling really thirsty, and he said, “If only someone could bring me a drink of water from the well beside the entrance gate to Bethlehem!”
| فَاقْتَحَمَ الثَّلاثَةُ مُعَسْكَرَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَجَاءُوا بِمَاءٍ مِنْ بِئْرِ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ الْقَائِمَةِ عِنْدَ بَوَّابَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَحَمَلُوهُ إِلَى دَاوُدَ، فَأَبَى أَنْ يَشْرَبَ مِنْهُ وَسَكَبَهُ لِلرَّبِّ. | ١٨ 18 |
The Three broke through the Philistine defenses, took some water from the well at Bethelehem's gate, and brought it back to David. But David refused to drink it, and poured it out as an offering to the Lord.
| وَقَالَ: «مَعَاذَ اللهِ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ! أَأَشْرَبُ دَمَ هَؤُلاءِ الرِّجَالِ الَّذِينَ جَازَفُوا بِحَيَاتِهِمْ، إِذْ خَاطَرُوا بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ لِيَأْتُوا بِهِ إِلَيَّ؟» وَأَبَى أَنْ يَشْرَبَ مِنْهُ. هَذَا مَا أَقْدَمَ عَلَيْهِ الأَبْطَالُ الثَّلاثَةُ. | ١٩ 19 |
“God forbid that I should do this!” he said. “It would be like drinking the blood of these men who risked their lives! They risked their lives to bring me a drink.” So he did not drink it. This is just some of the things the Three leading warriors did.
| وَكَانَ أَبِيشَايُ أَخُو يُوآبَ رَئِيسَ الثَّلاثِينَ أَيْضاً، وَقَدْ هَاجَمَ بِرُمْحِهِ ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ فَقَتَلَهُمْ، وَاشْتَهَرَ اسْمُهُ إِلَى جَانِبِ الْقُوَّادِ الثَّلاثَةِ. | ٢٠ 20 |
Abishai, Joab's brother, was leader of the second Three. Using his spear, he once killed 300 men, and became famous among the Three.
| وَمَعَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ مَرْتَبَةَ الْقُوَّادِ الثَّلاثَةِ الأَوَّلِينَ، إِلّا أَنَّهُ كَانَ قَائِداً لِلثَّلاثِينَ رَئِيساً. | ٢١ 21 |
He was the most highly regarded of the Three and was their commander, though he was not one of the first Three.
| وَهُنَاكَ أَيْضاً بَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ، مُحَارِبٌ جَبَّارٌ كَثِيرُ الْبُطُولاتِ، مِنْ قَبْصِيئِيلَ، وَهُوَ الَّذِي قَتَلَ بَطَلَيْ مُوآبَ، وَقَضَى عَلَى أَسَدٍ فِي وَسَطِ جُبٍّ فِي يَوْمٍ مُثْلِجٍ، | ٢٢ 22 |
Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, a strong warrior from Kabzeel, did many amazing things. He killed two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went after a lion into a pit in the snow and killed it.
| كَمَا قَتَلَ عِمْلاقاً مِصْرِيًّا طُولُهُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفٍ)، كَانَ مُتَسَلِّحاً بِرُمْحٍ كَنَوْلِ النَّسَّاجِينَ، فَتَقَدَّمَ مِنْهُ بِعَصاً وَخَطَفَ الرُّمْحَ مِنْ يَدِهِ وَقَتَلَهُ بِهِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
Another time he killed an Egyptian—a huge man who stood seven foot six inches tall. The Egyptian had a spear whose shaft was as thick as a weaver's rod. Benaiah attacked him with just a club, but he was able to grab the spear from the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear.
| هَذَا مَا أَقْدَمَ عَلَيْهِ بَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ فَذَاعَتْ شُهْرَتُهُ إِلَى جَانِبِ الأَبْطَالِ الثَّلاثَةِ، | ٢٤ 24 |
These were the kind of things Benaiah did that made him as famous as the Three leading warriors.
| وَعَلا شَأْنُهُ بَيْنَ الثَّلاثِينَ قَائِداً، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ مَرْتَبَةَ الأَبْطَالِ الثَّلاثَةِ. فَجَعَلَهُ دَاوُدُ مِنْ أُمَنَاءِ سِرِّهِ. | ٢٥ 25 |
He was the most highly regarded of the Thirty, though he was not one of the Three. David put him in charge of his personal bodyguard.
| أَمَّا أَبْطَالُ الْجَيْشِ فَهُمْ: عَسَائِيلُ أَخُو يُوآبَ، وَأَلْحَانَانُ بْنُ دُودُوَ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ. | ٢٦ 26 |
