< 1 Chronicles 14 >

1 Then sent Hiram the King of Tyrus messengers to Dauid, and cedar trees, with masons and carpenters to builde him an house.
[建造王宮]提洛王希蘭派使臣來見達味,給他送來香柏木,派來石匠和木工,為他建宮室。
2 Therefore Dauid knewe that the Lord had confirmed him King ouer Israel, and that his kingdome was lift vp on hie, because of his people Israel.
那時達味知道上主已確定他為以色列王,並為了自己的百姓以色列,提高了他的王位。[達味的子女]
3 Also Dauid tooke moe wiues at Ierusalem, and Dauid begate moe sonnes and daughters.
達味在耶路撒冷又娶了妻室,生了許多子女。
4 And these are the names of the children which he had at Ierusalem, Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Salomon,
達味在耶路撒冷所生兒子的名字如下:沙慕亞、芍巴布、納堂、撒羅滿、
5 And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet,
依貝哈爾、厄里叔亞、厄里培肋特、
6 And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Iaphia,
諾加、乃費格、雅非亞、
7 And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.
厄里沙瑪、貝里雅達和厄里培肋特。[擊敗培肋舍特]
8 But when the Philistims heard that Dauid was anointed King ouer Israel, all the Philistims came vp to seeke Dauid. And when Dauid heard, he went out against them.
培肋舍特人聽說達味受傅,為全以色列王,遂都上來向達味尋釁。達味聽說,便出來迎擊。
9 And the Philistims came, and spred them selues in the valley of Rephaim.
培肋舍特人上來侵入了勒法因平原。
10 Then Dauid asked counsel at God, saying, Shall I goe vp against the Philistims, and wilt thou deliuer them into mine hande? And the Lord saide vnto him, Goe vp: for I will deliuer them into thine hande.
那時,達味求問天主說:「我可以上去攻打培肋舍特人嗎﹖你將他們交在我手中嗎﹖」上主答應他說:「你上去,我必將他們交在你手中。」
11 So they came vp to Baal-perazim, and Dauid smote them there: and Dauid said, God hath deuided mine enemies with mine hande, as waters are deuided: therefore they called the name of that place, Baal-perazim.
達味於是上到巴耳培辣親,在那裏擊敗了他們。達味因此說:「天主假我的手使我的敵人崩潰,如水破堤。」因此後人稱這地方為巴耳培辣親。
12 And there they had left their gods: and Dauid said, Let them euen be burnt with fire.
培肋舍特人把自己的神像都遺棄在那裏,達味命人用火燒毀。
13 Againe the Philistims came and spread them selues in the valley.
培肋舍特人又侵入平原。
14 And when Dauid asked againe counsell at God, God said to him, Thou shalt not goe vp after them, but turne away from them, that thou mayest come vpon them ouer against the mulberie trees.
達味又求問天主,天主對他說:「不要一直上去追擊他們,要繞到他們後方,曾桑林那邊抄他們的後路。
15 And when thou hearest the noyse of one going in the toppes of the mulberie trees, then goe out to battel: for God is gone foorth before thee, to smite the hoste of the Philistims.
你一聽見桑樹梢上有腳步聲,要即刻出戰,因為天主在你面前出擊培肋舍特人的軍隊。」
16 So Dauid did as God had commanded him: and they smote the hoste of the Philistims from Gibeon euen to Gezer.
達味就照天主所命的行了,擊殺培肋舍特人的軍隊,由基貝紅直到革則爾。
17 And the fame of Dauid went out into all landes, and the Lord brought the feare of him vpon all nations.
因此,達味的聲名傳遍了各地,上主使各民族都害怕他。
