1 And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent men to David with cedar-trees, and stoneworkers and woodworkers for the building of his house.

And he sent (Huram *Q(K)*) [the] king of Tyre messengers to David and wood of cedar and craftsmen of a wall and craftsmen of wood to build for him a house.

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.

And he knew David that he had appointed him Yahweh to king over Israel that [was] exalted upwards kingdom his for sake of people his Israel.

3 And while he was living in Jerusalem, David took more wives and became the father of more sons and daughters.

And he took David again wives in Jerusalem and he fathered David again sons and daughters.

4 These are the names of the children he had in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab, Nathan and Solomon

And these [are] [the] names of the [ones] born who they belonged to him in Jerusalem Shammua and Shobab Nathan and Solomon.

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.

And they heard [the] Philistines that he had been anointed David to king over all Israel and they went up all [the] Philistines to seek David and he heard David and he went out before them.

9 Now the Philistines had come, and had gone out in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.

And [the] Philistines they had come and they had made a raid in [the] valley of [the] Rephaites.

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.

And he enquired David by God saying ¿ will I go up on ([the] Philistines *Q(k)*) and will you give? them in hand my and he said to him Yahweh go up and I will give them in hand your.

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.

And they went up at Baal Perazim and he struck down them there David and he said David he has burst out against God enemies my by hand my like a bursting out of water there-fore people called [the] name of the place that Baal Perazim.

12 And the Philistines did not take their images with them in their flight; and at David's orders they were burned with fire.

And they abandoned there gods their and he spoke David and they were burned with fire.

13 Then the Philistines again went out in every direction in the valley.

And they repeated again [the] Philistines and they made a raid in the valley.

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.

And he enquired again David by God and he said to him God not you will go up after them go around from on them and you will come to them from [the] front of the balsam trees.

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.

So may it be when hearing you [the] sound of marching in [the] tops of the balsam trees then you will go out in battle for he has gone out God before you to strike down [the] camp of [the] Philistines.

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.

And he did David just as he had commanded him God and they struck down [the] camp of [the] Philistines from Gibeon and to Gezer.

17 And David's name was honoured in all lands; and the Lord put the fear of him on all nations.

And it went out [the] name of David in all the lands and Yahweh he put dread of him on all the nations.
