2 Samuel 5

1 Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spoke, saying: 'Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.

Na sruf nukewa lun Israel som nu yorol David in acn Hebron ac fahk nu sel, “Kut mwet srahm na pwaye, ac kut ikwa sefanna.

2 In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was thou that didst lead out and bring in Israel; and the LORD said to thee: Thou shalt feed My people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.'

In pacl somla ke Saul el srakna tokosra, kom pa kol mwet Israel ke mweun, ac LEUM GOD El wuleot nu sum lah kom ac fah kol mwet lal ac leum faclos.”

3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel.

Ouinge mwet kol nukewa lun Israel tuku nu yorol David in acn Hebron. El orala sie wulela na ku yorolos, ac elos mosrwella tuh elan tokosra lun Israel.

4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

David el yac tolngoul ke el mutawauk in tokosra, ac el leum yac angngaul.

5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.

El muta Hebron ac leum fin acn Judah yac itkosr tafu, ac el muta Jerusalem ac leum fin Israel ac Judah nufon ke yac tolngoul tolu.

6 And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke unto David, saying: 'Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither'; thinking: 'David cannot come in hither.'

Sie pacl ah Tokosra David ac mwet lal elos akola in mweuni acn Jerusalem. Mwet Jebus su muta we elos nunku mu David el ac tia ku in kutangla siti sac. Ouinge elos fahk nu sel, “Kom ac tiana ku in utyak nu inge. Finne mwet kun, ku mwet ul, elos ku in kosrekomla.”

7 Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

(Tusruktu David el sruokyana pot ku lalos Zion, ac mutawauk in pangpang acn sac “Siti sel David.”)

8 And David said on that day: 'Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites, and getteth up to the gutter, and taketh away the lame and the blind, that are hated of David's soul —.' Wherefore they say: 'There are the blind and the lame; he cannot come into the house.'

In len sac David el fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Ku oasr mwet kwase mwet Jebus yohk oana nga, ac nunku mu fal in anwukla elos? Fin oasr, elos in utyak ke laf in kof an, ac onela mwet kun ac mwet ul ingan. (Pa inge sripa se pwanang fwack mu, “Mwet kun ac mwet ul tia ku in utyak nu in lohm sin LEUM GOD.”)

9 And David dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward.

Tukun David el sruokya pot ku sac, el muta we ac pangon acn we “Siti sel David.” El musaela sie siti raunela acn sac, mutawauk ke acn se ma koaneyukla layen kutulap in eol soko we.

10 And David waxed greater and greater; for the LORD, the God of hosts, was with him.

Pacl nukewa el kapkapak ac kui mweyen LEUM GOD Kulana El welul.

11 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.

Tokosra Hiram lun acn Tyre el supwala un mwet orekma nu yorol David. El sang sak cedar wi mwet musa ac mwet tufahl eot, in musai sie lohm sin tokosra.

12 And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that He had exalted his kingdom for His people Israel's sake.

Ouinge David el akilen lah LEUM GOD El oakilya elan tokosra lun Israel, ac oru tuh tokosrai lal in kapkapak ke sripen Israel, mwet lal.

13 And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron; and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.

Tukun David el som liki acn Hebron nu Jerusalem, el sifilpa srukak kutu mutan kulansap kial ac oayapa mutan kial, na puseni wen natul ac acn natul.

14 And these are the names of those that were born unto him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon;

Tulik inge isusla nu sel in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,

15 and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia;

Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,

16 and Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphelet.

Elishama, Eliada, ac Eliphelet.

17 And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the hold.

Mwet Philistia elos lohngak lah David el tokosrala lun Israel, na mwet mweun lalos illa in som sruokilya. Ke David el lohngak, el tufokla nu ke sie acn kuhlusyuki.

18 Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

Mwet Philistia elos utyak nu Infahlfal Rephaim ac muta we.

19 And David inquired of the LORD, saying: 'Shall I go up against the Philistines? wilt Thou deliver them into my hand?' And the LORD said unto David: 'Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into thy hand.'

David el siyuk sin LEUM GOD, “Ku nga ac mweuni mwet Philistia? Kom ac se kutangla nu sik?” LEUM GOD El fahk, “Aok, mweunelos! Nga ac sot kutangla nu sum!”

20 And David came to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and he said: 'The LORD hath broken mine enemies before me, like the breach of waters.' Therefore the name of that place was called Baal-perazim.

Ouinge David el som nu Baal Perazim ac el kutangla mwet Philistia in acn we. Ac el fahk, “LEUM GOD El kunauselik mwet lokoalok luk oana sronot se.” Ouinge acn sac pangpang Baal Perazim.

21 And they left their images there, and David and his men took them away.

Ke mwet Philistia kaingla, elos sisla god lalos som, na David ac mwet lal srukak ac usla ma inge.

22 And the Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

Na mwet Philistia elos folokla nu Infahlfal Rephaim ac sifilpa muta we.

23 And when David inquired of the LORD, He said: 'Thou shalt not go up; make a circuit behind them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees.

David el sifil lolngok yurin LEUM GOD, ac LEUM GOD El topuk ac fahk, “Nimet ut insacn ke kom ac mweunelos. Fahla nu layen laco ac akola in mweunelos apkuran nu ke acn sak balsam oan we.

24 And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself; for then is the LORD gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.'

Ke pacl se kom lohng pusren un mwet fahsr insroan sak uh, na kom tuyak mweun, mweyen nga ac fahsr meet liki kowos in kutangla un mwet mweun Philistia.”

25 And David did so, as the LORD commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gezer.

David el oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, pwanang el tuh ukwauk mwet Philistia liki acn Geba nwe ke sun acn Gezer.
