1 Chronicles 14
1 Then Hiram, king of Tyre, sent messengers to David along with cedar timber, stonemasons, and carpenters to build him a palace.
Misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri nuntios ad David, et ligna cedrina, et artifices parietum, lignorumque, ut ædificarent ei domum.
2 In this way David realized that the Lord had placed him on the throne as king of Israel and had blessed by supporting his kingdom for the sake of the Lord's people Israel.
Cognovitque David quod confirmasset eum Dominus in regem super Israël, et sublevatum esset regnum suum super populum ejus Israël.
3 David married more wives in Jerusalem, and had more sons and daughters.
Accepit quoque David alias uxores in Jerusalem, genuitque filios et filias.
4 This is a list of the names of the children he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
Et hæc nomina eorum, qui nati sunt ei in Jerusalem: Samua, et Sobab, Nathan, et Salomon,
5 Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,
Jebahar, et Elisua, et Eliphalet,
6 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,
Noga quoque, et Napheg, et Japhia,
7 Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
Elisama, et Baaliada, et Eliphalet.
8 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all of Israel, they gathered their whole army to go after him. But David heard they were coming and went out to confront them.
Audientes autem Philisthiim eo quod unctus esset David regem super universum Israël, ascenderunt omnes ut quærerent eum: quod cum audisset David, egressus est obviam eis.
9 The Philistines arrived and raided the valley of Rephaim.
Porro Philisthiim venientes, diffusi sunt in valle Raphaim.
10 David consulted God, asking “Shall I go and attack the Philistines? Will you make me victorious over them?” “Go ahead,” the Lord told him, “I will make you victorious over them.”
Consuluitque David Dominum, dicens: Si ascendam ad Philisthæos, et si trades eos in manu mea? Et dixit ei Dominus: Ascende, et tradam eos in manu tua.
11 So David attacked and defeated them there at Baal-perazim. “God used me to defeat my enemies like a torrent of water that bursts out,” he declared. That's why the place was named Baal-perazim.
Cumque illi ascendissent in Baalpharasim, percussit eos ibi David, et dixit: Divisit Deus inimicos meos per manum meam, sicut dividuntur aquæ: et idcirco vocatum est nomen illius loci Baalpharasim.
12 The Philistines had left their gods behind, so David gave orders that they should be burned.
Dereliqueruntque ibi deos suos, quos David jussit exuri.
13 However, the Philistines returned and made another raid on the valley.
Alia etiam vice Philisthiim irruerunt, et diffusi sunt in valle.
14 David consulted God again. “Don't make a frontal attack,” God told him. “Instead go around behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
Consuluitque rursum David Deum, et dixit ei Deus: Non ascendas post eos: recede ab eis, et venies contra illos ex adverso pyrorum.
15 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, go and attack for the Lord has gone before you to strike down the Philistine army.”
Cumque audieris sonitum gradientis in cacumine pyrorum, tunc egredieris ad bellum: egressus est enim Deus ante te, ut percutiat castra Philisthiim.
16 So David did what God told him, striking down the Philistine army all the way from Gibeon to Gezer.
Fecit ergo David sicut præceperat ei Deus, et percussit castra Philisthinorum, de Gabaon usque Gazera.
17 As a result David's reputation was spread everywhere, and the Lord made all the nations afraid of David.
Divulgatumque est nomen David in universis regionibus, et Dominus dedit pavorem ejus super omnes gentes.
