1 Chronicles 14
1 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs, stonemasons, and carpenters, to build a palace for him.
Afei, Tirohene Huram somaa abɔfoɔ ne aboɔ adansifoɔ ne nnua dwumfoɔ kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn sɛ, wɔnkɔsi ahemfie mma no. Afei, Huram sane de ntweneduro nnua a wɔbɛpae kɔeɛ.
2 And David realized that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and had highly exalted his kingdom for the sake of His people Israel.
Na Dawid hunuu sɛ Awurade de no asi Israel so ɔhene, na ɛsiane Israel enti, wayɛ nʼahennie kɛseɛ.
3 And David took more wives in Jerusalem and became the father of more sons and daughters.
Afei, Dawid waree mmaa bebree wɔ Yerusalem, na ɔwowoo mmammarima ne mmammaa bebree.
4 These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
Dawid mmammarima a wɔwoo wɔn Yerusalem no ne Samua, Sobab, Natan ne Salomo,
5 Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,
Yibhar, Elisua, ne Elifelet,
6 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,
Noga, Nefeg ne Yafia,
7 Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
Elisama, Beeliada ne Elifelet.
8 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, they all went in search of him; but David learned of this and went out to face them.
Ɛberɛ a Filistifoɔ tee sɛ wɔasra Dawid ngo ama wadi Israel nyinaa so ɔhene no, wɔboaboaa wɔn akodɔm nyinaa ano sɛ, wɔrebɛkye no. Na wɔka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ wɔreba ne so, enti ɔno nso ne ne mmarima firii kuro no mu kɔhyiaa wɔn.
9 Now the Philistines had come and raided the Valley of Rephaim.
Na Filistifoɔ no abɛduru Refaim bɔnhwa mu, asɛe hɔ pasaa.
10 So David inquired of God, “Should I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?” “Go,” replied the LORD, “for I will deliver them into your hand.”
Enti, Dawid bisaa Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Mempue na me ne Filistifoɔ no nkɔko? Wode wɔn bɛhyɛ me nsa anaa?” Awurade buaa sɛ, “Aane, wo ne wɔn nkɔko, na mɛma woadi wɔn so nkonim.”
11 So David and his men went up to Baal-perazim, where he defeated the Philistines and said, “Like a bursting flood, God has burst out against my enemies by my hand.” So they called that place Baal-perazim.
Enti, Dawid ne nʼakodɔm kɔɔ Baal-Perasim kɔdii Filistifoɔ no so wɔ hɔ. Dawid teaam sɛ, “Onyankopɔn ayɛ! Ɔnam me so ama mabɔ awura mʼatamfoɔ mu te sɛ nsuyire a ano yɛ den.” Enti, wɔtoo beaeɛ hɔ edin Baal-Perasim (a asekyerɛ ne sɛ “Awurade a ɔbɔ wura mu”).
12 There the Philistines abandoned their gods, and David ordered that they be burned in the fire.
Filistifoɔ no gyaa wɔn ahoni nyinaa hɔ enti, Dawid hyɛ maa wɔhyee ne nyinaa.
13 Once again the Philistines raided the valley.
Nanso, ankyɛre biara, Filistifoɔ no sane baa bɔnhwa no mu bɛsɛee hɔ.
14 So David again inquired of God, who answered him, “Do not march up after them, but circle around them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
Dawid bisaa Onyankopɔn deɛ ɔnyɛ bio. Onyankopɔn buaa sɛ, “Nkɔ tee nkɔto nhyɛ wɔn so. Mmom, fa wɔn ho kɔsi wɔn akyi na monto nhyɛ wɔn so wɔ baabi a ɛbɛn baka nnua no.
15 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move out to battle, because this will mean that God has marched out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”
Na sɛ mote nnyegyeeɛ bi te sɛ nnipa bi a wɔrebɔ nsra nan ase wɔ baka nnua no atifi a, monto nhyɛ wɔn so. Ɛno na ɛbɛyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɛkyerɛ sɛ, Onyankopɔn adi mo anim rekɔka Filistifoɔ no agu.”
16 So David did as God had commanded him, and they struck down the army of the Philistines all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
Enti, Dawid yɛɛ deɛ Onyankopɔn hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no, na ɔkaa Filistifoɔ akodɔm no guiɛ firi Gibeon de kɔsii Geser.
17 And David’s fame went out into every land, and the LORD caused all nations to fear him.
Na Dawid edin hyetaa baabiara, na Awurade maa aman no nyinaa suroo Dawid.
