2 Samuel 5
1 Then all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, “Here we are, your own flesh and blood.
et venerunt universae tribus Israhel ad David in Hebron dicentes ecce nos os tuum et caro tua sumus
2 Even in times past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And to you the LORD said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”
sed et heri et nudius tertius cum esset Saul rex super nos tu eras educens et reducens Israhel dixit autem Dominus ad te tu pasces populum meum Israhel et tu eris dux super Israhel
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where King David made with them a covenant before the LORD. And they anointed him king over Israel.
venerunt quoque et senes de Israhel ad regem in Hebron et percussit cum eis rex David foedus in Hebron coram Domino unxeruntque David in regem super Israhel
4 David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years.
filius triginta annorum erat David cum regnare coepisset et quadraginta annis regnavit
5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.
in Hebron regnavit super Iudam septem annis et sex mensibus in Hierusalem autem regnavit triginta tribus annis super omnem Israhel et Iudam
6 Now the king and his men marched to Jerusalem against the Jebusites who inhabited the land. The Jebusites said to David: “You will never get in here. Even the blind and lame can repel you.” For they thought, “David cannot get in here.”
et abiit rex et omnes viri qui erant cum eo in Hierusalem ad Iebuseum habitatorem terrae dictumque est ad David ab eis non ingredieris huc nisi abstuleris caecos et claudos dicentes non ingredietur David huc
7 Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion (that is, the City of David).
cepit autem David arcem Sion haec est civitas David
8 On that day he said, “Whoever attacks the Jebusites must use the water shaft to reach the lame and blind who are despised by David.” That is why it is said, “The blind and the lame will never enter the palace.”
proposuerat enim in die illa praemium qui percussisset Iebuseum et tetigisset domatum fistulas et claudos et caecos odientes animam David idcirco dicitur in proverbio caecus et claudus non intrabunt templum
9 So David took up residence in the fortress and called it the City of David. He built it up all the way around, from the supporting terraces inward.
habitavit autem David in arce et vocavit eam civitatem David et aedificavit per gyrum a Mello et intrinsecus
10 And David became greater and greater, for the LORD God of Hosts was with him.
et ingrediebatur proficiens atque succrescens et Dominus Deus exercituum erat cum eo
11 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.
misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri nuntios ad David et ligna cedrina et artifices lignorum artificesque lapidum ad parietes et aedificaverunt domum David
12 And David realized that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and had exalted his kingdom for the sake of His people Israel.
et cognovit David quoniam confirmasset eum Dominus regem super Israhel et quoniam exaltasset regnum eius super populum suum Israhel
13 After he had arrived from Hebron, David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, and more sons and daughters were born to him.
accepit ergo adhuc concubinas et uxores de Hierusalem postquam venerat de Hebron natique sunt David et alii filii et filiae
14 These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
et haec nomina eorum qui nati sunt ei in Hierusalem Samua et Sobab et Nathan et Salomon
15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
et Ibaar et Helisua et Nepheg
16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
et Iafia et Helisama et Helida et Helifeleth
17 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they all went in search of him; but David learned of this and went down to the stronghold.
audierunt vero Philisthim quod unxissent David regem super Israhel et ascenderunt universi ut quaererent David quod cum audisset David descendit in praesidium
18 Now the Philistines had come and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.
Philisthim autem venientes diffusi sunt in valle Raphaim
19 So David inquired of the LORD, “Should I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?” “Go,” replied the LORD, “for I will surely deliver the Philistines into your hand.”
et consuluit David Dominum dicens si ascendam ad Philisthim et si dabis eos in manu mea et dixit Dominus ad David ascende quia tradens dabo Philisthim in manu tua
20 So David went to Baal-perazim, where he defeated the Philistines and said, “Like a bursting flood, the LORD has burst out against my enemies before me.” So he called that place Baal-perazim.
venit ergo David in Baalpharasim et percussit eos ibi et dixit divisit Dominus inimicos meos coram me sicut dividuntur aquae propterea vocatum est nomen loci illius Baalpharasim
21 There the Philistines abandoned their idols, and David and his men carried them away.
et reliquerunt ibi sculptilia sua quae tulit David et viri eius
22 Once again the Philistines came up and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim.
et addiderunt adhuc Philisthim ut ascenderent et diffusi sunt in valle Raphaim
23 So David inquired of the LORD, who answered, “Do not march straight up, but circle around behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
consuluit autem David Dominum qui respondit non ascendas sed gyra post tergum eorum et venies ad eos ex adverso pirorum
24 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, move quickly, because this will mean that the LORD has marched out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”
et cum audieris sonitum gradientis in cacumine pirorum tunc inibis proelium quia tunc egredietur Dominus ante faciem tuam ut percutiat castra Philisthim
25 So David did as the LORD had commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
fecit itaque David sicut ei praeceperat Dominus et percussit Philisthim de Gabee usque dum venias Gezer
