1 Ljetopisa 14
1 Tirski kralj Hiram posla k Davidu izaslanstvo i cedrovih drva, zidara i tesara da mu grade dvor.
And Huram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and masons, and carpenters, to build him a house.
2 Tada David spozna da ga je Jahve potvrdio za kralja nad Izraelom i da je uzvisio njegovo kraljevstvo radi svojega izraelskog naroda.
And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, for his kingdom was exalted exceedingly, for His people Israel's sake.
3 David je uzeo još žena u Jeruzalemu i imao još sinova i kćeri.
And David took more wives at Jerusalem; and David begot more sons and daughters.
4 Evo imena djece koja mu se rodiše u Jeruzalemu: Šamua, Šobab, Natan, Salomon,
And these are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon;
5 Jibhar, Elišua, Elpalet,
and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet;
6 Nogah, Nefeg, Jafija,
and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia;
7 Elišama, Beeljada i Elifelet.
and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
8 Kad su Filistejci čuli da su Davida pomazali za kralja nad svim Izraelom, iziđoše svi da se dočepaju Davida. David, čuvši to, iziđe pred njih.
And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went out to meet them.
9 Filistejci dođoše i raširiše se po Refaimskoj dolini.
Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim.
10 Tada David upita Boga: “Mogu li napasti Filistejce? Hoćeš li ih predati meni u ruke?” Jahve mu odgovori: “Napadni, jer ću ih predati tebi u ruke!”
And David inquired of God, saying: 'Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt Thou deliver them into my hand?' And the LORD said unto him: 'Go up; for I will deliver them into thy hand.'
11 Tada krenuše u Baal Perasim i David ih ondje pobi. David reče: “Bog je prodro među moje neprijatelje mojom rukom, kao što voda prodire.” Stoga se ono mjesto prozvalo Baal Perasim.
So they came up to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and David said: 'God hath broken mine enemies by my hand, like the breach of waters.' Therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.
12 Ostavili su ondje svoje bogove; a David zapovjedi da ih spale.
And they left their gods there; and David gave commandment, and they were burned with fire.
13 Opet se Filistejci raširiše po onoj dolini.
And the Philistines yet again made a raid in the valley.
14 David opet upita Boga, a Bog mu odgovori: “Ne idi za njima nego ih opkoli i navali na njih s protivne strane Bekaima.
And David inquired again of God; and God said unto him: 'Thou shalt not go up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees.
15 Pa kad začuješ topot koraka po bekaimskim vrhovima, onda izađi u boj, jer će tada ići Bog pred tobom da pobije filistejsku vojsku.”
And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle; for God is gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.'
16 David učini kako mu je zapovjedio Bog; i pobili su filistejsku vojsku od Gibeona do Gezera.
And David did as God commanded him; and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.
17 Davidovo se ime pročulo po svim zemljama, a Jahve uli strah od njega svim narodima.
And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.
