< 1 Chronicles 14 >

1 And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent men to David with cedar-trees, and stoneworkers and woodworkers for the building of his house.
Tirski kralj Hiram posla k Davidu izaslanstvo i cedrovih drva, zidara i tesara da mu grade dvor.
2 And David saw that the Lord had made his position safe as king over Israel, lifting up his kingdom on high because of his people Israel.
Tada David spozna da ga je Jahve potvrdio za kralja nad Izraelom i da je uzvisio njegovo kraljevstvo radi svojega izraelskog naroda.
3 And while he was living in Jerusalem, David took more wives and became the father of more sons and daughters.
David je uzeo još žena u Jeruzalemu i imao još sinova i kćeri.
4 These are the names of the children he had in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab, Nathan and Solomon
Evo imena djece koja mu se rodiše u Jeruzalemu: Šamua, Šobab, Natan, Salomon,
5 And Ibhar and Elishua and Elpelet
Jibhar, Elišua, Elpalet,
6 And Nogah and Nepheg and Japhia
Nogah, Nefeg, Jafija,
7 And Elishama and Beeliada and Eliphelet.
Elišama, Beeljada i Elifelet.
8 And when the Philistines had news that David had been made king over all Israel, they went up in search of David, and David, hearing of it, went out against them.
Kad su Filistejci čuli da su Davida pomazali za kralja nad svim Izraelom, iziđoše svi da se dočepaju Davida. David, čuvši to, iziđe pred njih.
9 Now the Philistines had come, and had gone out in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.
Filistejci dođoše i raširiše se po Refaimskoj dolini.
10 And David, desiring directions from God, said, Am I to go up against the Philistines? and will you give them into my hands? And the Lord said, Go up; for I will give them into your hands.
Tada David upita Boga: “Mogu li napasti Filistejce? Hoćeš li ih predati meni u ruke?” Jahve mu odgovori: “Napadni, jer ću ih predati tebi u ruke!”
11 So they went up to Baal-perazim, and David overcame them there, and David said, God has let the forces fighting against me be broken by my hand, as a wall is broken down by rushing water; so they gave that place the name of Baal-perazim.
Tada krenuše u Baal Perasim i David ih ondje pobi. David reče: “Bog je prodro među moje neprijatelje mojom rukom, kao što voda prodire.” Stoga se ono mjesto prozvalo Baal Perasim.
12 And the Philistines did not take their images with them in their flight; and at David's orders they were burned with fire.
Ostavili su ondje svoje bogove; a David zapovjedi da ih spale.
13 Then the Philistines again went out in every direction in the valley.
Opet se Filistejci raširiše po onoj dolini.
14 And David went for directions to God; and God said to him, You are not to go up after them; but, turning away from them, come face to face with them opposite the spice-trees.
David opet upita Boga, a Bog mu odgovori: “Ne idi za njima nego ih opkoli i navali na njih s protivne strane Bekaima.
15 And at the sound of footsteps in the tops of the trees, go out to the fight, for God has gone out before you to overcome the army of the Philistines.
Pa kad začuješ topot koraka po bekaimskim vrhovima, onda izađi u boj, jer će tada ići Bog pred tobom da pobije filistejsku vojsku.”
16 And David did as the Lord had said; and they overcame the army of the Philistines, attacking them from Gibeon as far as Gezer.
David učini kako mu je zapovjedio Bog; i pobili su filistejsku vojsku od Gibeona do Gezera.
17 And David's name was honoured in all lands; and the Lord put the fear of him on all nations.
Davidovo se ime pročulo po svim zemljama, a Jahve uli strah od njega svim narodima.
