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 to Hebron, and spoke, 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.’”

Even aforetime, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel; and Jehovah said to thee, Thou shalt feed 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.

And 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; 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-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; and they spoke to David, saying, Thou shalt not come in hither, but the blind and the lame will drive thee back; as much as to say, David will not come in hither.

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

But David took the stronghold of Zion, which 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, Whoever smites the Jebusites and gets up to the watercourse, and the lame and the blind hated of David's soul...! Therefore they say, The blind and the lame shall not 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.

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

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

And David became continually greater; and 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 timber of cedars, 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 because of his people Israel.

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 had 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 to 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 the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, and 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;

And the Philistines came 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 give them into my hand? And Jehovah said to David, Go up; for I will certainly give 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 has broken in upon mine enemies before me, as the breaking forth 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 David inquired of Jehovah; and he said, Thou shalt not go up; turn round behind them and come upon them opposite 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 a sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself; for then will Jehovah have gone forth before thee, to smite the army 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 had commanded him; and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou comest to Gezer.
