Kings II 5
1 And all the tribes of Israel come to David to Chebron, and they said to him, Behold, we [are] your bone and your flesh.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị ebo Izrel niile bịakwutere Devid na Hebrọn, sị ya, “Lee, ọkpụkpụ gị na anụ ahụ gị ka anyị bụ.
2 And heretofore Saul being king over us, you was he that did lead out and bring in Israel: and the Lord said to you, You shall feed my people Israel, and you shall be for a leader to my people Israel.
Nʼoge gara aga, mgbe Sọl bụ eze na-achị anyị, ọ bụ gị duuru ndị agha Izrel nʼọgụ niile, ma ọpụpụ ma mbata. Onyenwe anyị sịrị gị, ‘Ị ga-azụ ndị m, bụ Izrel, ị ga-abụkwa onye ga-achị ha.’”
3 And all the elders of Israel come to the king to Chebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Chebron before the Lord; and they anoint David king over all Israel.
Mgbe ndị okenye Izrel niile bịakwutere Devid na Hebrọn, ha na eze Devid gbara ndụ nʼihu Onyenwe anyị na Hebrọn. Ha tere Devid mmanụ ịbụ eze Izrel.
4 David [was] thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
Devid gbara iri afọ atọ mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze. Ọ chịkwara iri afọ anọ.
5 Seven years and six months he reigned in Chebron over Juda, and thirty-three years he reigned over all Israel and Juda in Jerusalem.
Ọ chịrị ndị Juda niile na Hebrọn afọ asaa na ọnwa isii. Chịakwa ndị Izrel na Juda niile mgbe ọ nọ na Hebrọn na mgbe ọ nọ na Jerusalem iri afọ atọ na atọ,
6 And David and his men, departed to Jerusalem, to the Jebusite that inhabited the land: and it was said to David, You shall not come in hither: for the blind and the lame withstood him, saying, David shall not come in hither.
Eze na ndị ikom ya zọọrọ ije garuo Jerusalem ibuso ndị Jebus bi nʼebe ahụ agha. Ndị Jebus gwara Devid sị, “Ị gaghị abata nʼebe a, ọ bụladị ndị ìsì na ndị ngwụrọ nwere ike ịchụghachi gị azụ.” Ha na-eche sị, “Devid agaghị abata nʼebe a,”
7 And David took first the hold of Sion: this [is] the city of David.
nʼagbanyeghị okwu ndị a, Devid dọtara ebe ahụ e wusiri ike nke Zayọn nʼagha, ya bụ obodo Devid.
8 And David said on that day, Every one that smites the Jebusite, let him attack with the dagger both the lame and the blind, and those that hate the soul of David. Therefore they say, The lame and the blind shall not enter into the house of the Lord.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, Devid kwuru sị, “Onye ọbụla ga-emeri ndị Jebus ga-esite nʼọnụ warawara ebe mmiri si abanye nʼobodo a banyekwuru ndị ngwụrọ na ndị ìsì a bụ ndị iro Devid.” Ọ bụ nke a mere ha ji ekwu okwu sị, “Ndị ìsì na ndị ngwụrọ agaghị abata nʼụlọeze ahụ.”
9 And David lived in the hold, and it was called the city of David, and he built the city itself round about from the citadel, and [he built] his own house.
Devid biiri nʼebe ahụ e wusiri ike, kpọọ ya obodo Devid. O wuru akụkụ ebe dị gburugburu ya, site na Milo baa ruo nʼime ya.
10 And David advanced and became great, and the Lord Almighty [was] with him.
Ma ọ gara nʼihu na-adị ukwuu karịa, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị, Chineke, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile nọnyeere ya.
11 And Chiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar wood, and carpenters, and stone-masons: and they built a house for David.
Hiram bụ Eze Taịa, zitere Devid osisi sida e ji ewu ụlọ, na ndị ǹka osisi, ndị na-ewu ụlọ. Ha wuuru Devid ụlọeze.
12 And David knew that the Lord had prepared him to be king over Israel, and that his kingdom was exalted for the sake of his people Israel.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid ghọtara na Onyenwe anyị emeela ka o guzosie ike dịka eze ndị Izrel. Bulikwa alaeze ya elu nʼihi ndị ya Izrel.
13 And David took again wives and concubines out of Jerusalem, after he came from Chebron: and David had still more sons and daughters born to him.
Mgbe Devid sitere na Hebrọn kwabata na Jerusalem; ọ lụrụ ndị inyom ọzọ, nwetakwara onwe ya ọtụtụ ndị iko nwanyị. Ọ mụtakwara ọtụtụ ụmụ nwoke na ụmụ nwanyị.
14 And these [are] the names of those that were born to him in Jerusalem; Sammus, and Sobab, and Nathan, and Solomon.
Ndị a bụ aha ụmụ a mụụrụ ya na Jerusalem: Shamua, Shobab, Netan, Solomọn,
15 And Ebear, and Elisue, and Naphec, and Jephies.
Ibha, Elishua, Nefeg, Jafia,
16 And Elisama, and Elidae, and Eliphalath, Samae, Jessibath, Nathan, Galamaan, Jebaar, Theesus, Eliphalat, Naged, Naphec, Janathan, Leasamys, Baalimath, Eliphaath.
Elishama, Eliada na Elifelet.
17 And the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over Israel; and all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the strong hold.
Mgbe ndị Filistia nụrụ na eteela Devid mmanụ ị bụ eze ndị Izrel, ha pụrụ ka igwe ha niile ha ịchọ ya. Ma Devid nụrụ maka ya, gbadaa nʼime ebe ahụ e wusiri ike.
18 And the Philistines came, and assembled in the valley of the giants.
Ma ndị Filistia bịara, gbasaa onwe ha na Ndagwurugwu Refaim niile.
19 And David enquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and will you deliver them into my hands? and the Lord said to David, Go up, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into your hands.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid jụrụOnyenwe anyị ase sị, “Ọ bụ m gaa buso ndị Filistia agha? Ị ga-enyefe ha nʼaka m?” Onyenwe anyị zara sị ya, “Gaa, nʼihi na aghaghị m inyefe ndị Filistia nʼaka gị.”
20 And David came from Upper Breaches, and struck the Philistines there: and David said, The Lord has destroyed the hostile Philistines before me, as water is dispersed; therefore the name of that place was called Over Breaches.
Ya mere, Devid gara Baal-Perazim, meriekwa ha nʼebe ahụ. O kwuru sị, “Onyenwe anyị enupula megide ndị iro m nʼihu m, dịka idee mmiri si enupu.” Nʼihi ya, a kpọrọ ebe ahụ Baal-Perazim.
21 And they leave there their gods, and David and his men with him took them.
Ndị Filistia hapụrụ arụsị niile ha nʼebe ahụ. Devid na ndị ikom ya chịkọtara ha chịpụ.
22 And the Philistines came up yet again, and assembled in the valley of Giants.
Ma ndị Filistia lọghachiri ọzọ, gbasaa onwe ha na Ndagwurugwu Refaim.
23 And David enquired of the Lord: and the Lord said, You shall not go up to meet them: turn from them, and you shall meet them near the place of weeping.
Nʼihi nke a, Devid jụrụ Onyenwe anyị ase, ọ zara sị, “Esitekwala nʼihu ha gaa, kama gaa gburugburu ruo nʼazụ ha, buso ha agha na ncherita ihu osisi balsam ndị ahụ.
24 And it shall come to pass when you hear the sound of a clashing together from the grove of weeping, then you shall go down to them, for then the Lord shall go forth before you to make havoc in the battle with the Philistines.
Ngwangwa ị nụrụ ụda ikiri ụkwụ nʼelu osisi balsam ndị ahụ, mee ngwa malite ọgụ, nʼihi na nke a pụtara na Onyenwe anyị eburula unu ụzọ pụọ, itigbu ndị agha Filistia.”
25 And David did as the Lord commanded him, and struck the Philistines from Gabaon as far as the land of Gazera.
Devid mere dịka Onyenwe anyị nyere ya nʼiwu. O tigburu ndị Filistia, site na Geba ruo Gaza.
