< 1 Chronicles 11 >

1 Then all Israel came together to David at Hebron and said, “Here we are, your own flesh and blood.

Ndị Izrel niile gbakọtara bịakwute Devid na Hebrọn sị ya, “Lee, ọkpụkpụ gị na anụ ahụ gị ka anyị bụ.

2 Even in times past, while Saul was king, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And the LORD your God said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”

Nʼoge gara aga, ọ bụladị mgbe Sọl bụ eze, ọ bụ gị duuru ndị agha Izrel nʼọgụ niile, ma ọpụpụ ma mbata. Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị, sịrị gị, ‘Ị ga-azụ ndị m, bụ Izrel, ị ga-abụkwa onye ga-achị ha.’”

3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where David made a covenant with them before the LORD. And they anointed him king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD through Samuel.

Mgbe ndị okenye Izrel niile bịakwutere eze Devid na Hebrọn, ya na ha gbara ndụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị na Hebrọn. Ha tere ya mmanụ ịbụ eze Izrel, dịka Onyenwe anyị kwere na nkwa site nʼọnụ Samuel.

4 Then David and all the Israelites marched to Jerusalem (that is, Jebus), where the Jebusites inhabited the land.

Devid na ndị Izrel zọọrọ ije garuo Jerusalem nke bụ Jebus. Ma ndị Jebus bi nʼebe ahụ,

5 The people of Jebus said to David, “You will never get in here.” Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion (that is, the City of David).

gwara Devid sị, “Ị gaghị abata nʼebe a.” Nʼagbanyeghị okwu ndị a, Devid dọtara ebe ahụ e wusiri ike nke Zayọn nʼagha, ya bụ obodo Devid.

6 Now David had said, “Whoever is the first to strike down a Jebusite will become chief commander.” And Joab son of Zeruiah went up first, and he became the chief.

Devid ekwuolarị sị, “Onye ọbụla buru ụzọ buo agha megide ndị Jebus ga-abụ onyeisi ọchịagha ndị agha.” Joab nwa Zeruaya bụ onye mbụ gara, nʼihi ya, o nwetara ike ịbụ ọchịagha.

7 So David took up residence in the fortress; that is why it was called the City of David.

Devid biiri nʼebe ahụ e wusiri ike. Ọ bụ nke a mere e ji akpọ ya obodo Devid.

8 He built up the city around it, from the supporting terraces to the surrounding wall, while Joab restored the rest of the city.

O wuru obodo gburugburu ya, site na Milo ruo na mgbidi gbara ya gburugburu. Ma Joab wuzikwara akụkụ obodo ahụ nke fọdụrụ.

9 And David became greater and greater, for the LORD of Hosts was with him.

Ma Devid gara nʼihu na-adị ukwuu karịa, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, nọnyeere ya.

10 Now these were the chiefs of David’s mighty men, who, together with all Israel, bolstered and strengthened his kingdom, according to the word of the LORD concerning Israel.

Ndị a bụ ndịisi ndị dike nʼetiti ndị agha Devid. Ha na ndị Izrel niile nyere ịchị eze Devid ezi nkwado ime ka ọchịchị ya ruo nʼakụkụ niile nke ala ahụ, dịka Onyenwe anyị kwere na nkwa.

11 This is the list of David’s mighty men: Jashobeam son of Hachmoni was chief of the officers; he wielded his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed at one time.

Nke a bụ ndekọ ọnụọgụgụ ndị dike nʼagha Devid nwere: Jashobeam, onye Hakmon, bụ onyeisi nʼetiti ndịisi ndị ọzọ. O weliri ùbe ya megide narị ndị ikom atọ, bụ ndị o gburu nʼotu mgbe ibu agha.

12 Next in command was Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men.

Onye nke na-eso ya bụ Elieza nwa Dodayi, onye Ahohi, onye bụ otu nʼime ndị dike atọ ndị ahụ.

13 He was with David at Pas-dammim when the Philistines gathered there for battle. At the place with a field full of barley, the troops fled from the Philistines.

Ya na Devid nọ na Pas Damin mgbe ndị Filistia zukọrọ nʼebe ahụ ibu agha. Nʼotu ebe, nke e nwere otu ubi jupụtara nʼọka balị, ma ndị agha Izrel si nʼọgbọ agha gbapụ ọsọ nʼihi ndị Filistia.

14 But Eleazar and David stationed themselves in the middle of the field and defended it. They struck down the Philistines, and the LORD brought about a great victory.

Ma ha were ọnọdụ ha nʼetiti ubi ahụ, ha napụtara ya, tigbuo ndị Filistia niile ahụ. Onyenwe anyị nyere mmeri dị ukwuu.

15 Three of the thirty chief men went down to David, to the rock at the cave of Adullam, while a company of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim.

Mmadụ atọ nʼime iri ndịisi agha atọ ahụ jekwuru Devid na nkume dị nʼọgba Adulam, na mgbe otù ndị Filistia mara ụlọ ikwu ha na Ndagwurugwu Refaim.

16 At that time David was in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was at Bethlehem.

Ma Devid nọ nʼebe ahụ ewusiri ike nʼoge ahụ, ma ọnọdụ ndị agha ndị Filistia dị na Betlehem.

17 David longed for water and said, “Oh, that someone would get me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!”

Agụụ mmiri gụrụ Devid nke ukwuu, ọ sị, “Ọ ga-amasị m ma ọ bụrụ na o nwere onye ga-ekunye m mmiri ọṅụṅụ site nʼolulu mmiri dị nso nʼọnụ ụzọ ama Betlehem!”

18 So the Three broke through the Philistine camp, drew water from the well at the gate of Bethlehem, and brought it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured it out to the LORD,

Ya mere, ha atọ wakpuru ọmụma ụlọ ikwu ndị Filistia, seta mmiri site nʼolulu mmiri ahụ dị nʼakụkụ ọnụ ụzọ ama Betlehem, bulatara ya Devid. Ma Devid jụrụ ịṅụ ya, kama ọ wufuru ya nʼala dịka onyinye nye Onyenwe anyị, kwuo sị,

19 saying, “Far be it from me, my God, to do this! How can I drink the blood of these men who risked their lives?” Because they had brought it at the risk of their lives, David refused to drink it. Such were the exploits of the three mighty men.

“Chineke ekwela ka m mee nke a. M ga-aṅụ ọbara ndị ikom a, bụ ndị ji ndụ ha chụọ aja nʼihi ikute mmiri a?” Nʼihi na ha ji ndụ ha chụọ aja ịga kute ya, Devid ekweghị aṅụ ya. Nke a bụ ụdị ike dike atọ ahụ kpara.

20 Now Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the Three, and he lifted his spear against three hundred men, killed them, and won a name along with the Three.

Abishai, nwanne Joab bụ onyeisi ndị ikom atọ ahụ. O weliri ùbe ya megide narị ndị ikom atọ, tigbukwaa ha niile. Nʼihi nke a, ọ ghọrọ onye a ma ama dịka mmadụ atọ ndị a.

21 He was doubly honored above the Three, and he became their commander, even though he was not included among the Three.

Nʼetiti mmadụ atọ ahụ, a na-asọpụrụ ya karịa, ọ ghọrọ onyeisi ha. Ọ bụ ezie na-agụnyeghị ya dịka otu onye nʼime ha.

22 And Benaiah son of Jehoiada was a man of valor from Kabzeel, a man of many exploits. He struck down two champions of Moab, and on a snowy day he went down into a pit and killed a lion.

Benaya, nwa Jehoiada, onye si Kabzeel, bụ dike nʼagha, kpara ike dị ukwuu. O tigburu dimkpa abụọ ndị Moab, ndị bụ ọkaka nʼagha. O rịdakwukwara ọdụm nʼime olulu na-amị amị nʼụbọchị mkpụrụ mmiri na-ezo, gbuo ya.

23 He also killed an Egyptian, a huge man five cubits tall. Although the Egyptian had a spear like a weaver’s beam in his hand, Benaiah went against him with a club, snatched the spear from his hand, and killed the Egyptian with his own spear.

O tigburu otu nwoke onye Ijipt, nke ogologo ya dị mita abụọ na ọkara. Ọ bụ ezie na onye Ijipt ahụ ji ùbe buru ezigbo ibu nʼaka, nke okporo ya dịka nke onye na-ekwe akwa ji ekwe akwa, ma Benaya ji naanị mkpọ jekwuru ya, pụnara onye Ijipt ahụ ùbe dị ya nʼaka, jiri ya magbuo ya.

24 These were the exploits of Benaiah son of Jehoiada, who won a name alongside the three mighty men.

Nke a bụ ụdị ike Benaya nwa Jehoiada kpara. Ya onwe ya nwekwara aha dịka ndị dike atọ ahụ.

25 He was most honored among the Thirty, but he did not become one of the Three. And David appointed him over his guard.

A na-asọpụrụ ya nʼebe ọ dị ukwuu karịa onye ọbụla nʼetiti iri dike atọ ndị ahụ, ma o rughị ogugo ndị dike atọ mbụ ahụ. Devid mere ya onyeisi ndị na-eche ya nche.

26 Now these were the mighty men: Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
