2 Samuel 5
1 Then came all the tribes of Israel to David to Hebron, and spoke, saying, Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
Israel koca pum loh David te Hebron la a paan uh tih, “Kaimih he namah rhuh, kaimih he namah saa dae la he.
2 Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, you were he that led out and brought in Israel: and the LORD said to you, You shall feed my people Israel, and you shall be a captain over Israel.
Hlaem hlavai kah Saul a om vaengah ni kaimih soah manghai la na om khaw na om rhoe coeng. Israel te a thak, a thak tih a pawk khaw a pawk puei. Te dongah ni BOEIPA loh namah taengah, 'Ka pilnam Israel te na luem puei vetih Israel soah rhaengsang la na om bitni,’ a ti pai,” a ti uh.
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the LORD: and they anointed David king over Israel.
Israel patong boeih loh Hebron la manghai te a paan uh. Te vaengah manghai David loh amih te Hebron ah moi a boh pah tih BOEIPA mikhmuh ah David te Israel sokah manghai la a koelh uh.
4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
David a manghai vaengah kum sawmthum lo ca coeng tih kum sawmli khuiah manghai van.
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.
Hebron ah Judah Te kum rhih hla rhuk a manghai thil tih Jerusalem ah Israel neh Judah pum Te kum sawmthum kum thum a manghai thil.
6 And the king and his men went to Jerusalem to the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land: which spoke to David, saying, Except you take away the blind and the lame, you shall not come in here: thinking, David cannot come in here.
Manghai neh a hlang rhoek loh Jerusalem khohmuen khosa kung Jebusi te a caeh uh thil hatah David te a voek tih, “Hela na kun mahpawh, hela David kun boel saeh a ti coeng atah mikdael rhoek neh aka khaem rhoek long mah nang te n'haek thai,” a ti nah.
7 Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion: the same is the city of David.
Tedae David loh Zion rhalvong David khopuei te vik a loh.
8 And David said on that day, Whoever gets up to the gutter, and smites the Jebusites, and the lame and the blind that are hated of David’s soul, he shall be chief and captain. Why they said, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.
Te khohnin ah David loh, “Aka khaem khaw, mikdael khaw, khat khat long khaw Jebusi aka ngawn tah tuikun khaw pha saeh,” a ti. Te khaw David kah a hinglu a hmuhuet, la a hmuhuet uh tih mikdael khokhaem loh, “Im khuila ha kun boel saeh,” a ti uh dongah ni.
9 So David dwelled in the fort, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward.
Rhalvong te David loh a om thil dongah David Khopuei la a khue. Te dongah vaikhap lamloh imkhui duela a kaepvai te David loh a sak.
10 And David went on, and grew great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him.
David a caeh a pongpa vaengah a pantai Te caempuei Pathen BOEIPA loh anih a om puei dongah ni.
11 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons: and they built David an house.
Tyre manghai Khiram loh David taengla puencawn a tueih tih lamphai thing, thing kutthai, pangbueng dongkah ham lungto kutthai neh David ham im a sak uh.
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.
Israel sokah manghai la BOEIPA loh anih a thoh khaw, a pilnam Israel kong ah a ram a phoh te khaw David loh a ming.
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.
David loh yupuei yula muep a loh dongah Hebron lamkah Jerusalem la a pawk vaengah David ham capa neh canu khawk a sak pauh.
14 And these be the names of those that were born to him in Jerusalem; Shammuah, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
Jerusalem ah anih ham aka thaang rhoek a ming rhoek tah Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
15 Ibhar also, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
Ibhar, Elishua neh, Nepheg neh Japhia,
16 And Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphalet.
Elishama, Eliada neh Eliphelet.
17 But when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the hold.
Israel sokah manghai la David a koelh uh te Philisti rhoek loh a yaak uh vaengah David mae hamla Philisti rhoek boeih cet uh. Tedae David loh a yaak tih rhalvong la suntla thuk.
18 The Philistines also came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
Te vaengah Philisti rhoek ha pawk uh tih Rapha kol ah khawk taai uh.
19 And David inquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up to the Philistines? will you deliver them into my hand? And the LORD said to David, Go up: for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into your hand.
David loh BOEIPA te a dawt tih, “Philisti te ka paan a yaa, amih Te ka kut dongah nan tloeng aya?” a ti nah hatah BOEIPA loh David te, “Cet! Philisti te na kut dongah kam paek rhoe kam paek ni,” a ti nah.
20 And David came to Baalperazim, and David smote them there, and said, The LORD has broken forth on my enemies before me, as the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baalperazim.
David Te Baalperazim la cet tih amih te a ngawn. Te vaengah David loh, “Ka thunkha rhoekTe BOEIPA loh ka mikhmuh ah tui puut bangla a va coeng,” a ti. Te dongah tekah hmuen te a ming Baalperazim la a khue.
21 And there they left their images, and David and his men burned them.
Te vaengah a hnoo uh sut amih muei te David neh a hlang rhoek loh a koh uh.
22 And the Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
Te phoeiah a rhaep la Philisti rhoek koep cet uh tih Rapha kol ah taai uh.
23 And when David inquired of the LORD, he said, You shall not go up; but fetch a compass behind them, and come on them over against the mulberry trees.
Te vaengah David loh BOEIPA te a dawt hatah, “Cet boeh, a hnuk longah vael lamtah, amih te tikti rhaldan ah khoep cuuk.
24 And let it be, when you hear the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then you shall bestir yourself: for then shall the LORD go out before you, to smite the host of the Philistines.
Tikti soi ah haeksak ol na yaak la, na yaak coeng atah cuuk thil laeh. Philisti lambong tloek ham Te na hmaiah BOEIPA cet coeng,” a ti nah.
25 And David did so, as the LORD had commanded him; and smote the Philistines from Geba until you come to Gazer.
BOEIPA loh amah a uen bangla David loh a saii tih Philisti te a tloek tih Geba lamloh Gezer la pawk.
