Already yesterday, and even before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast the one that led out and brought in Israel: And the Lord said to thee, Thou shalt indeed feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a chief over Israel.

And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land; who said unto David, as followeth, Thou shalt not come in hither, except thou [first] remove away the blind and the lame: meaning, David cannot come in hither.
7 Ahilah David in khopi dettah Zion khopi chu alatan ahi, tunin hiche mun chu David khopi akiti tai.
Nevertheless David captured the strong-hold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

And David said on that day, Whosoever will smite the Jebusites, and reach the aqueduct and the lame and the blind, that are hateful to David's soul, —Wherefore people usually say, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.

And David felt conscious that the Lord has established him as king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel.

And David asked counsel of the Lord, saying, shall I go up against the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said unto David, Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into thy hand.

And David came to Ba'al-perazim, and David smote them there, and said, The Lord hath broken down my enemies before me, as a breach [is made by] water. Wherefore he called the name of that place Ba'al-perazim.

And when David asked counsel of the Lord, he said, Thou shalt not go up; but turn about and fall in the rear of them, and come upon them opposite to the mulberry-trees.
24 Chule nanghon poplar thing chung lamma mikijot kengto gin najah teng ule kiging sadem a naum diu ahi! hichu Philistine mite chunga galjona nanei thei nadiuva Pakaiyin nachungvum uva nalhonpi nao melchih na hiding ahi.
And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of walking on the top of the mulberry-trees, that thou shalt then bestir thyself; for then will the Lord go out before thee, to smite in the camp of the Philistines.
25 Hijeh chun David injong Pakaiyin athupeh bang chun abollin, Philistines mite jouse chu Gibeon apet Gezer changei in athat gam tan ahi.
And David did so, as the Lord had commanded him; and he smote the Philistines from Geba' until thou comest to Gezer.
