2 Samuel 5

1 Dhout Israel duto nobiro Hebron ir Daudi ma giwacho niya, “Wan ringreni kendo wan remo achiel.

Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spake, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.

2 E ndalo mokadho, kane pod Saulo ruodhwa in ema ne itelo ni jo-Israel e lwenjegi. Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowachoni niya, ‘In ema nibed jakwadh joga Israel, kendo inibed jatendgi.’”

In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was thou that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and Jehovah said to thee, Thou shalt be shepherd of my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.

3 Kane jodong Israel duto osebiro Hebron ir Ruoth Daudi notimo kodgi winjruok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ne giwiro Daudi mondo obed ruodh Israel.

So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Jehovah: and they anointed David king over Israel.

4 Daudi ne ja-higni piero adek kane obedo ruoth, kendo nobedo e loch kuom higni piero angʼwen.

David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

5 Ne en e loch kuom higni abiriyo gi dweche auchiel ka en ruodh Juda kodak Hebron kendo ne en ruodh Israel gi Juda kodak Jerusalem kuom higni piero adek gadek.

In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.

6 Ruoth gi joge nodhi Jerusalem momonjo jo-Jebus mane odak kanyo. Jo-Jebus nowacho ni Daudi niya, “Ok inidonj ka; kata mana muofuni gi rangʼonde notami donjo.” Negiparo niya, “Daudi ok nyal donjo kanyo.”

And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spake unto David, saying, Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither; thinking, David cannot come in hither.

7 To kata kamano Daudi noloyogi mokawo ohinga mar Sayun, ma en Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi.

Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

8 Chiengʼno Daudi nowacho niya, “Ngʼato angʼata madwaro loyo jo-Jebus nyaka kadh e otuchi ma pi kadhogo eka dochop kuom rangʼonde gi muofni, ma gin jowasik Daudi.” Mano ema omiyo nowach ni muofni gi rongʼonde ok nodonj e dala ruoth.

And David said on that day, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites, let him get up to the watercourse, and [smite] the lame and the blind, that are hated of David’s soul. Wherefore they say, There are the blind and the lame; he cannot come into the house.

9 Eka Daudi nodak e dala mochiel gi ohinga moluonge ni Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Nogere kolwore gi ohinga motegno gi yo ka iye.

And David dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward.

10 Kendo nomedo bedo gi teko ahinya, nikech Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ne ni kode.

And David waxed greater and greater; for Jehovah, the God of hosts, was with him.

11 Koro Hiram ruodh Turo nooro joote ir Daudi ka gitingʼo sirni mag yiend sida gi jopa bao kod jogedo mag kite, kendo negigero dala ruoth ni Daudi.

And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.

12 Kendo Daudi nongʼeyo ni Jehova Nyasaye osegure kaka ruodh Israel kendo osetingʼo pinyruodhe malo mana nikech joge Israel.

And David perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake.

13 Bangʼ kane osedar Hebron, Daudi nokendo monde kaachiel kod mon mamoko Jerusalem kendo nonywolone yawuowi gi nyiri mangʼeny.

And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron; and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.

14 Magi e nying nyithindo mane onywolo ka en Jerusalem: Shamua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,

And these are the names of those that were born unto him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,

15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nefeg, Jafia,

and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

16 Elishama, Eliada kod Elifelet.

and Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphelet.

17 Kane jo-Filistia owinjo ni Daudi osewir bedo ruodh jo-Israel, negiwuok kar rombgi, mondo gidware, to Daudi nowinjo wachno omiyo nowuok modhi kama ochiel motegno.

And when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the stronghold.

18 Koro jo-Filistia nosebiro ma gimonjo holo mar Refaim;

Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

19 omiyo Daudi nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye niya, “bende anyalo dhi mondo amonj jo-Filistia? Bende iniketgi e lweta?” Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Dhiyo, nikech abiro chiwo jo-Filistia e lweti.”

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

20 Omiyo Daudi nodhi Baal Perazim kendo noloyogi kanyo. Nowacho niya, “Kaka pi muomo, e kaka Jehova Nyasaye osemwomore ni wasika e nyima.” Mano emomiyo kanyo nochak ni Baal-Perizim.

And David came to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and he said, Jehovah hath broken mine enemies before me, like the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

21 Jo-Filistia noweyo nyisechegi kanyo kendo Daudi gi joge notingʼo gi modhigo.

And they left their images there; and David and his men took them away.

22 Jo-Filistia nochako oyworo ni lweny e holo mar Refaim;

And the Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

23 omiyo Daudi nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye wach kendo Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Kik ichomgi tir lwor gi yo ka ngʼegi kendo imonjgi kama omanyore gi omburi.

And when David inquired of Jehovah, he said, Thou shalt not go up: make a circuit behind them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees.

24 Kiwinjo ka wi omburi yiengni, iwuog mapiyo nikech mano biro nyiso ni Jehova Nyasaye osetelo e nyimi mondo otiek jolweny mag jo-Filistia.”

And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself; for then is Jehovah gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.

25 Omiyo Daudi notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike, mi nonego jo-Filistia kochakore Gibeon nyaka Gezer.

And David did so, as Jehovah commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gezer.
