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.
Kisha Hiramu mfalme wa Tire alituma wajumbe kwa Daudi, na miti ya mierezi, maseremala, na wajenzi. Walijenga nyumba kwa ajili yake.
2 And David perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel, for his kingdom was highly exalted, because of his people Israel.
Daudi alijua kuwa Yahweh alimfanya kuwa mfalme juu ya Waisraeli, na hivyo ufalme wake ulitukuzwa juu sana kwa ajili ya watu wa Israeli
3 And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begot more sons and daughters.
Ndani ya Yerusalemu, Daudi aliongeza wake, na akawa baba wa wana wengi na mabinti.
4 And these are the names of the children which he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,
Haya yalikuwa majina ya watoto waliozaliwa nae huko yerusalemu: Shammua, Shobabu, nathani, Solimoni,
5 and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,
Ibhari, Elishama, Elpeleti,
6 and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
Noga, Nefegi, Jafia,
7 and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
Elishama, Beliada, na Elifeleti.
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.
Sasa tangu Wafilisti waliposikia Daudi amepakwa mafuta kama mfalme juu ya Waisraeli, wote walitoka nje kwenda kumtafuta. Lakini Daudi alisikia kuhusu hilo nae akaenda nje kinyume nao.
9 And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
Sasa wafilisti walikuja na kufanya shambulio katika bonde la Refaimu.
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.
Kisha Daudi akaomba msaada kwa Mungu. Akasema, “Je niwashambulie Wafilisti? Utanipa ushindi juu yao?” Yahweh akamwambia, “Shambulia, kwa uhakika nitawakabidhi kwako.”
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.
Kwa hivyo wakaja Baali Perazimu na akawashinda. Akasema, “Yahweh kapasua maadui zangu kwa mkono wangu kama vile mpasuko wa mafuriko ya maji.” Hivyo jina la sehemu ile likawa Baali Perazimu.
12 And they left their gods there; and David commanded, and they were burned with fire.
Wafilisti walitelekeza miungu yao pale, na Daudi akatoa amri wateketezwe kwa moto.
13 And the Philistines yet again spread themselves in the valley.
Kisha Wafilisti wakavamia kwa mara nyingine tena.
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.
Hivyo Daudi akaomba msaada kwa Mungu tena. Mungu akamwambia, “Usiwashambulie kwa mbele, lakini wazunguke kwa nyuma yao na uwajie kupitia misitu ya balisamu.
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.
Utakaposikia sauti ya wanajeshi wanatembea kwenye upepo uvumao kutoka juu ya miti ya balisamu, kisha shambulia kwa nguvu. Fanya hivyo kwasababu Mungu atakutangulia kwenda kuwashambulia majeshi ya wafilisti.”
16 And David did as God commanded him; and they smote the army of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.
Hivyo Daudi alifanya kama Mungu alivyo muamuru. Aliwashinda jeshi la Wafilisti kutoka Gibeoni mpaka Gezeri.
17 And the fame of David went out into all lands; and Jehovah brought the fear of him upon all the nations.
Kisha umaarufu wa Daudi ukaenda katika nchi zote, na Yahweh akasababisha mataifa yote kumuhofia.
