< 1 Chronicles 14 >
1 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him a house.
Og Hiram, Kongen af Tyrus, sendte Bud til David med Cedertræ og Murmestre og Tømmermestre for at bygge ham et Hus.
2 And David perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel, for his kingdom was highly exalted, because of his people Israel.
Og David fornam, at Herren havde stadfæstet ham til Konge over Israel; thi hans Rige blev overmaade ophøjet for hans Folks Israels Skyld.
3 And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begot more sons and daughters.
Og David tog endnu Hustruer i Jerusalem, og David avlede endnu Sønner og Døtre.
4 And these are the names of the children which he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,
Og disse vare deres Navne, som bleve ham fødte i Jerusalem: Sammua og Sobab, Nathan og Salomo
5 and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,
og Jibkar og Elisua og Elifelet
6 and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
og Noga og Nefeg og Jafla
7 and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
og Elisama og Beeljada og Elifelet.
8 And the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, and all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard [of it], and went out against them.
Og der Filisterne hørte, at David var salvet til Konge over hele Israel, da droge alle Filisterne op for at søge efter David; der David hørte det, da drog han ud imod dem.
9 And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
Og Filisterne kom og udbredte sig i Refaims Dal.
10 And David inquired of God saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou give them into my hand? And Jehovah said to him, Go up; and I will give them into thy hand.
Og David spurgte Gud ad og sagde: Skal jeg drage op imod Filisterne? og vil du give dem i min Haand? Og Herren sagde til ham: Drag op, thi jeg vil give dem i din Haand.
11 And they came up to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and David said, God has broken in upon mine enemies by my hand, as the breaking forth of waters. Therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.
Og der de droge op til Baal-Perazim, da slog David dem der, og David sagde: Gud har brudt igennem mine Fjender ved min Haand, ligesom Vandet bryder igennem; derfor kaldte man det samme Steds Navn Baal-Perazim.
12 And they left their gods there; and David commanded, and they were burned with fire.
Og de efterlode deres Guder der; og David bød, og de bleve opbrændte med Ild.
13 And the Philistines yet again spread themselves in the valley.
Og Filisterne bleve endnu ved og udbredte sig i Dalen.
14 And David inquired again of God; and God said to him, Go not up after them; turn round them and come upon them opposite the mulberry-trees.
Og David adspurgte Gud ydermere, og Gud sagde til ham: Du skal ikke drage op efter dem, men vend dig fra dem, at du kan komme til dem tværs over for Morbærtræerne.
15 And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle; for God will have gone forth before thee to smite the army of the Philistines.
Og det skal ske, naar du hører en Lyd af en Skriden hen over Morbærtræernes Toppe, da skal du drage ud til Striden; thi Gud er udgangen for dit Ansigt at slaa Filisternes Lejr.
16 And David did as God commanded him; and they smote the army of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.
Og David gjorde, som Gud havde befalet ham, og de sloge Filisternes Lejr fra Gibeon og indtil Geser.
17 And the fame of David went out into all lands; and Jehovah brought the fear of him upon all the nations.
Og Davids Navn kom ud i alle Landene, og Herren lod Frygt for ham komme over alle Hedninger.
