< 2 Samuel 23 >

1 Now these are the last words of David. David the son of Jesse says, and the man who was raised on high says, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel:
Ita, dagitoy dagiti maudi a balikas ni David— ni David nga anak ni Jesse, ti tao a napadayawan unay, ti tao a pinulotan iti Dios ni Jacob, ti nalaing a salmista ti Israel.
2 The Spirit of Jehovah spoke by me, and his word was upon my tongue.
“Nagsao ti Espiritu ni Yahweh babaen kaniak, ket adda dagiti balikasna iti dilak.
3 The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me. He who rules over men righteously, who rules in the fear of God,
Nagsao ti Dios ti Israel, kinuna ti dakkel a Bato ti Israel kaniak, 'Ti sililinteg a mangiturturay kadagiti tattao, a mangiturturay nga addaan iti panagbuteng iti Dios.
4 he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun rises, a morning without clouds, when the tender grass springs out of the earth, through clear shining after rain.
Kaiyarigannanto ti lawag iti agsapa iti kanito a sumingsingising ti init, maysa nga agsapa nga awan ti ulep, a panagrusing dagiti naganus a ruot iti daga babaen iti naraniag a singising ti init kalpasan iti tudo.
5 Truly my house is not so with God. Yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure. For it is all my salvation, and all my desire, though he does not make it to grow.
Kinapudnona, saan kadi a kastoy ti pamiliak iti imatang ti Dios? Saan kadi a nakitulag isuna kaniak iti agnanayon, nabilin ken saan a mabaliwan iti amin a wagas? Saan kadi a patalgedenna ti pannakaisalakanko ken ibanagna ti tunggal tarigagayko?
6 But the worthless shall be as thorns to be thrust away, all of them, because they cannot be taken with the hand.
Ngem dagiti awan serserbina ket maiyarigdanto amin kadagiti siit a maibelleng, gapu ta saan ida a maurnong dagiti ima iti siasinoman.
7 But the man who touches them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear, and they shall be utterly burned with fire in their place.
Ti tao a mangsagid kadagitoy ket masapul nga agaramat iti landok wenno putan ti gayang: masapul a mapuoranda iti ayanda.'”
8 These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb-basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains, the same was Adino the Eznite, against eight hundred slain at one time.
Dagitoy dagiti nagan dagiti mabigbigbig a soldado ni David: Ni Jesbaal a Hacmonita ket isu ti pangulo dagiti mabigbigbig a soldado. Nakapatay isuna iti walo gasut a lallaki iti naminsan a ranget.
9 And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of an Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David when they defied the Philistines who were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away.
Sumaruno kenkuana ket ni Eleazar a putot ni Dodo a putot ti maysa nga Ahohita a maysa kadagiti tallo a nasisiglat a tattao ni David. Adda isuna idi kinaritda dagiti Filisteo a naguummong tapno makigubat, ken idi nagsanod dagiti lallaki ti Israel.
10 He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clung to the sword. And Jehovah wrought a great victory that day, and the people returned after him only to take spoil.
Nagtakder ni Eleazar ket kinarangetna dagiti Filisteo agingga a nabannog ken simmikkil dagiti imana ket saannan a maibbatan ti putan ti kampilanna. Nangiyeg ni Yahweh iti naindaklan a balligi iti dayta nga aldaw. Nagsubli dagiti armada kalpasan ni Eleazar tapno laeng rabsutenda dagiti kayatda kadagiti natay.
11 And after him was Shammah the son of Agee a Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop where was a plot of ground full of lentils, and the people fled from the Philistines.
Sumaruno kenkuana ni Samma a putot ni Age a taga-Hara. Naguummong dagiti Filisteo iti talon a namulaan iti bukbukel, ket intarayan ida ti armada.
12 But he stood in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and killed the Philistines. And Jehovah wrought a great victory.
Ngem nagtakder ni Samma iti tengga ti talon ket sinalaknibanna daytoy. Pinatayna dagiti Filisteo, ket nangyeg ni Yahweh iti naindaklan a balligi.
13 And three of the thirty chief men went down, and came to David in the harvest time to the cave of Adullam, and the troop of the Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
Tallo kadagiti tallupulo a soldado ti simmalog iti ayan ni David iti panawen ti panagaapit, iti rukib ti Adullam. Nagkampo ti armada dagiti Filisteo iti tanap ti Refaim.
14 And David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem.
Iti dayta a tiempo adda idi ni David iti paglemlemmenganna a maysa a rukib, kabayatan iti panagkampo dagiti Filisteo idiay Betlehem.
15 And David longed, and said, Oh that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!
Mawaw idi ni David ket kinunana, “No adda la koma mangted kaniak iti danum nga inumek a naggapu iti bubon idiay Betlehem, ti bubon nga adda iti asideg ti ruangan!”
16 And the three mighty men broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David. But he would not drink of it, but poured it out to Jehovah.
Isu a sinarakusok dagitoy a tallo a nasisiglat a lallaki ti armada dagiti Filisteo ket napanda simmakdo iti danum idiay bubon ti Betlehem, ti bubon nga adda iti ruangan. Innalada ti danum ket impanda kenni David, ngem nagkedked isuna nga inumen daytoy. Ngem ketdi, imbuyatna daytoy a kas datonna kenni Yahweh.
17 And he said, Be it far from me, O Jehovah, that I should do this, to drink the blood of the men who went in jeopardy of their lives? Therefore he would not drink it. These things the three mighty men did.
Ket kinunana, “Iyadayom kaniak, Yahweh, nga inumek daytoy. Rumbeng kadi nga inumek ti dara dagiti lallaki a nangipusta iti biagda?” Isu a nagkedked isuna nga inumen daytoy. Dagitoy dagiti banbanag nga inaramid dagiti tallo a nasisiglat a lallaki.
18 And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name among the three.
Ni Abisai a kabsat ni Joab a putot ni Zeruyas, ti kapitan dagiti tallo. Adda naminsan a nakiranget isuna babaen iti gayangna iti tallo gasut a lallaki ket pinatayna ida. Masansan a madakamat isuna a kadua dagiti tallo a soldado.
19 Was he not most honorable of the three? Therefore he was made their captain. However he did not attain to the first three.
Saan kadi a nalatlatak isuna ngem kadagiti tallo? Isuna ti nagbalin a kapitanda. Nupay kasta, ti kinalatakna ket saan a kas iti kinalatak dagiti tallo a kalalatakan a soldado.
20 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, he killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow.
Ni Benaias a taga-Kabzeel ket putot ni Jehoyada; maysa isuna a napigsa a lalaki a nakaaramid kadagiti aramid a mangipakita iti kinatured. Pinatayna dagiti dua a putot ni Ariel a taga-Moab. Bimmaba pay isuna iti maysa nga abut ket pinatayna ti maysa a leon kabayatan nga agtudtudo iti niebe.
21 And he killed an Egyptian, a good-looking man. And the Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear.
Ken napatayna ti maysa a nagdakkel a lalaki nga Egipcio. Nakaiggem iti gayang daytoy nga Egipcio, ngem kinaranget daytoy ni Benaias babaen laeng iti sarukod. Inagawna ti gayang manipud iti ima ti Egipcio ket pinatayna isuna babaen iti daytoy met laeng a gayang.
22 These things Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did, and had a name among the three mighty men.
Inaramid ni Benaias aputot ni Jehoyada dagitoy a kinatured, ket nainaganan isuna a kadua dagiti tallo a nasisiglat a lallaki.
23 He was more honorable than the thirty, but he did not attain to the first three. And David set him over his guard.
Mararaem isuna ngem dagiti tallopulo a soldado, ngem saan isuna a mararaem a kas kadagiti tallo a mabigbigbig a soldado. Nupay kasta, isuna ti dinutokan ni David a mangimaton kadagiti guardiana.
24 Asahel the brother of Joab was one of the thirty; Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
