1 Chronicles 14
1 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him an house.
Afei, Tirohene Huram somaa abɔfo ne abo adansifo ne nnua dwumfo kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn sɛ, wonkosi ahemfi mma no. Afei, Huram san de sida nnua a wɔbɛpae kɔe.
2 And David perceived that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of his people Israel.
Na Dawid huu sɛ Awurade de no asi Israel so hene, na esiane Israel nti, wayɛ nʼahenni kɛse.
3 And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begat more sons and daughters.
Afei, Dawid waree mmea bebree wɔ Yerusalem, na ɔwowoo mmabarima ne mmabea bebree.
4 Now these [are] the names of [his] children which he had in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,
Dawid mmabarima a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ Yerusalem no ne Samua, Sobab, Natan ne Salomo,
5 And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet,
Yibhar, Elisua, ne Elpelet,
6 And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
Noga, Nefeg ne Yafia,
7 And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.
Elisama, Beeliada ne Elifelet.
8 And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard [of it], and went out against them.
Bere a Filistifo tee sɛ wɔasra Dawid ngo ama wadi Israel nyinaa so hene no, wɔboaboaa wɔn asraafo nyinaa ano sɛ, wɔrebɛkyere no. Na wɔka kyerɛɛ Dawid se wɔreba ne so, enti ɔno nso ne ne mmarima fii kurow no mu kohyiaa wɔn.
9 And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
Na Filistifo no abedu Refaim bon asɛe hɔ pasaa.
10 And David enquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the LORD said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thine hand.
Enti Dawid bisaa Onyankopɔn se, “Mimpue na me ne Filistifo no nkɔko? Wode wɔn bɛhyɛ me nsa ana?” Awurade buae se, “Yiw, wo ne wɔn nkɔko, na mɛma woadi wɔn so nkonim.”
11 So they came up to Baal-perazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.
Enti Dawid ne nʼakofo kɔɔ Baal-Perasim kodii Filistifo no so wɔ hɔ. Dawid teɛɛ mu se, “Onyankopɔn ayɛ! Ɔnam me so ama mabɔ awura mʼatamfo mu te sɛ, nsuyiri a ano yɛ den.” Enti, wɔtoo beae hɔ din Baal-Perasim (a nkyerɛase ne sɛ “Awurade a ɔbɔ wura mu”).
12 And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire.
Filistifo no gyaw wɔn ahoni nyinaa hɔ nti, Dawid hyɛ ma wɔhyew ne nyinaa.
13 And the Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley.
Nanso ankyɛ biara, Filistifo no san baa obon no mu bio bɛsɛee hɔ.
14 Therefore David enquired again of God; and God said unto him, Go not up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.
Dawid bisaa Onyankopɔn nea ɔnyɛ bio. Onyankopɔn buae se, “Nkɔ tee nkɔtow nhyɛ wɔn so. Mmom, fa wɔn ho kosi wɔn akyi na montow nhyɛ wɔn so wɔ baabi a ɛbɛn baka nnua no.
15 And it shall be, when thou shalt hear a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees, [that] then thou shalt go out to battle: for God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.
Na sɛ mote nnyigye bi te sɛ nnipa bi a wɔrebɔ nsra anan ase wɔ baka nnua no atifi a, montow nhyɛ wɔn so. Ɛno na ɛbɛyɛ nsɛnkyerɛnne a ɛkyerɛ sɛ, Onyankopɔn adi mo anim rekɔka Filistifo no agu.”
16 David therefore did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer.
Enti Dawid yɛɛ nea Onyankopɔn hyɛɛ no sɛ ɔnyɛ no, na ɔkaa Filistifo asraafo no guu fi Gibeon de kosii Geser.
17 And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.
Na Dawid din hyetaa baabiara, na Awurade maa aman no nyinaa suroo Dawid.
