2 صَمُوئيل 5
| وَتَوَافَدَ جَمِيعُ رُؤَسَاءِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ فِي حَبْرُونَ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّنَا لَحْمُكَ وَعَظْمُكَ. | ١ 1 |
Then all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, “Here we are, your own flesh and blood.
| وَفِي الأَيَّامِ الْغَابِرَةِ عِنْدَمَا كَانَ شَاوُلُ مَلِكاً عَلَيْنَا كُنْتَ أَنْتَ قَائِدَنَا فِي الْمَعَارِكِ، وَقَدْ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لَكَ:’أَنْتَ تَرْعَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَتَتَوَلَّى حُكْمَهُ‘.» | ٢ 2 |
Even in times past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And to you the LORD said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”
| وَفِي حُضُورِ شُيُوخِ إِسْرَائِيلَ فِي حَبْرُونَ قَطَعَ الْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ مَعَهُمْ عَهْداً أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، فَنَصَّبُوهُ مَلِكاً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣ 3 |
So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where King David made with them a covenant before the LORD. And they anointed him king over Israel.
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ فِي الثَّلاثِينَ مِنْ عُمْرِهِ حِينَ تُوِّجَ مَلِكاً. | ٤ 4 |
David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years.
| وَاسْتَمَرَّ مُلْكُهُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً، مِنْهَا سَبْعُ سَنَوَاتٍ وَسِتَّةُ أَشْهُرٍ مَلَكَ فِيهَا عَلَى يَهُوذَا فِي حَبْرُونَ، وَثَلاثٌ وَثَلاثُونَ سَنَةً مَلَكَ فِيهَا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَسِبْطِ يَهُوذَا. | ٥ 5 |
In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.
| ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ الْمَلِكُ بِقُوَّاتِهِ نَحْوَ أُورُشَلِيمَ لِمُحَارَبَةِ أَهْلِهَا الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ. فَقَالُوا لِدَاوُدَ: «لَنْ تَسْتَطِيعَ اقْتِحَامَ الْمَدِينَةِ، لأَنَّهُ حَتَّى فِي وُسْعِ الْعُمْيَانِ وَالْعُرْجِ أَنْ يَصُدُّوكَ عَنْهَا». | ٦ 6 |
Now the king and his men marched to Jerusalem against the Jebusites who inhabited the land. The Jebusites said to David: “You will never get in here. Even the blind and lame can repel you.” For they thought, “David cannot get in here.”
| غَيْرَ أَنَّ دَاوُدَ اسْتَوْلَى عَلَى حِصْنِ صِهْيَوْنَ الْمَعْرُوفِ الآنَ بِمَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ. | ٧ 7 |
Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion (that is, the City of David).
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ قَدْ قَالَ لِرِجَالِهِ: «عَلَى مَنْ يُهَاجِمُ الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ أَنْ يَسْتَخْدِمَ الْقَنَاةَ لِلْوُصُولِ إِلَى هَؤُلاءِ’الْعُمْيِ وَالْعُرْجِ‘الَّذِينَ تُبْغِضُهُمْ نَفْسِي». لِذَلِكَ يُقَالُ: «لا يَدْخُلُ بَيْتَ الرَّبِّ أَعْمَى وَلا أَعْرَجُ». | ٨ 8 |
On that day he said, “Whoever attacks the Jebusites must use the water shaft to reach the lame and blind who are despised by David.” That is why it is said, “The blind and the lame will never enter the palace.”
| وَأَقَامَ دَاوُدُ فِي الْحِصْنِ وَدَعَاهُ مَدِينَةَ دَاوُدَ. | ٩ 9 |
So David took up residence in the fortress and called it the City of David. He built it up all the way around, from the supporting terraces inward.
| وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يَزْدَادُ عَظَمَةً، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ كَانَ مَعَهُ. | ١٠ 10 |
And David became greater and greater, for the LORD God of Hosts was with him.
| وَأَرْسَلَ حِيرَامُ مَلِكُ صُورَ وَفْداً إِلَى دَاوُدَ مُحَمَّلاً بِخَشَبِ أَرْزٍ وَنَجَّارِينَ وَبَنَّائِينَ، فَشَيَّدُوا لِدَاوُدَ قَصْراً. | ١١ 11 |
Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.
| وَأَدْرَكَ دَاوُدُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ قَدْ ثَبَّتَهُ مَلِكاً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَنَّهُ قَدْ عَظَّمَ مِنْ مُلْكِهِ مِنْ أَجْلِ شَعْبِهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٢ 12 |
And David realized that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and had exalted his kingdom for the sake of His people Israel.
| وَبَعْدَ أَنِ انْتَقَلَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ حَبْرُونَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ اتَّخَذَ لِنَفْسِهِ زَوْجَاتٍ وَمَحْظِيَّاتٍ وَأَنْجَبَ أَبْنَاءً وَبَنَاتٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
After he had arrived from Hebron, David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, and more sons and daughters were born to him.
| وَهَذِهِ هِيَ أَسْمَاءُ أَبْنَاءِ دَاوُدَ الَّذِينَ وُلِدُوا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ: شَمُّوعُ وشُوبَابُ وَنَاثَانُ وَسُلَيْمَانُ. | ١٤ 14 |
These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
| وَيِبْحَارُ وَأَلِيشُوعُ وَنَافَجُ وَيَافِيعُ. | ١٥ 15 |
Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
| وَأَلِيشَمَعُ وَأَلِيدَاعُ وَأَلِيفَلَطُ. | ١٦ 16 |
Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
| وَعِنْدَمَا عَلِمَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ أَنَّ دَاوُدَ اعْتَلَى عَرْشَ إِسْرَائِيلَ خَرَجُوا بِقُوَّاتِهِمْ لِلْبَحْثِ عَنْهُ. فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ الْخَبَرُ دَاوُدَ لَجَأَ إِلَى الْحِصْنِ. | ١٧ 17 |
When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they all went in search of him; but David learned of this and went down to the stronghold.
| وَجَاءَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ وَانْتَشَرُوا فِي وَادِي الرَّفَائِيِّينَ. | ١٨ 18 |
Now the Philistines had come and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.
| وَسَأَلَ دَاوُدُ الرَّبَّ: «هَلْ أَصْعَدُ لِمُحَارَبَةِ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ؟ هَلْ تَنْصُرُنِي عَلَيْهِمْ؟» فَأَجَابَهُ الرَّبُّ: «اصْعَدْ لأَنِّي أَنْصُرُكَ عَلَيْهِمْ». | ١٩ 19 |
So David inquired of the LORD, “Should I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?” “Go,” replied the LORD, “for I will surely deliver the Philistines into your hand.”
| فَتَقَدَّمَ دَاوُدُ نَحْوَ بَعْلِ فَرَاصِيمَ وَهَاجَمَهُمْ قَائِلاً: «قَدِ اقْتَحَمَ الرَّبُّ أَعْدَائِي أَمَامِي كَمَا تَقْتَحِمُ الْمِيَاهُ». لِذَلِكَ دُعِيَ ذَلِكَ الْمَوْضِعُ بَعْلَ فَرَاصِيمَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
So David went to Baal-perazim, where he defeated the Philistines and said, “Like a bursting flood, the LORD has burst out against my enemies before me.” So he called that place Baal-perazim.
| وَهَرَبَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ مُخَلِّفِينَ وَرَاءَهُمْ أَصْنَامَهُمْ فَحَطَّمَهَا دَاوُدُ وَرِجَالُهُ. | ٢١ 21 |
There the Philistines abandoned their idols, and David and his men carried them away.
| ثُمَّ عَادَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ فَاحْتَلُّوا وَادِي الرَّفَائِيِّينَ وَانْتَشَرُوا فِيهِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Once again the Philistines came up and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.
| فَاسْتَشَارَ دَاوُدُ الرَّبَّ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: «لا تَصْعَدْ إِلَيْهِمْ مُوَاجَهَةً، بَلِ الْتَفَّ حَوْلَهُمْ وَاهْجُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ مُقَابِلَ أَشْجَارِ الْبَلْسَمِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
So David inquired of the LORD, who answered, “Do not march straight up, but circle around behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
| وَعِنْدَمَا تَسْمَعُ صَوْتَ خَطْوَاتٍ تَنْتَقِلُ فَوْقَ قِمَمِ أَشْجَارِ الْبَلْسَمِ فَأَسْرِعْ بِالْهُجُومِ لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ آنَئِذٍ يَكُونُ قَدْ تَقَدَّمَكَ لِلْقَضَاءِ عَلَى مُعَسْكَرِهِمْ». | ٢٤ 24 |
As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move quickly, because this will mean that the LORD has marched out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”
| فَنَفَّذَ دَاوُدُ أَوَامِرَ الرَّبِّ وَقَضَى عَلَى الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مِنْ جَبْعٍ إِلَى مَدْخَلِ جَازَرَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
So David did as the LORD had commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
