2 Samuel 5

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

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 Already yesterday, and even before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast the one that led out and brought in Israel: And the Lord said to thee, Thou shalt indeed feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a chief 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 Thus came all the elders of Israel to the king unto Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David as 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 Thirty years was David old when he became king, [and] forty years he reigned.

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 said unto David, as followeth, Thou shalt not come in hither, except thou [first] remove away the blind and the lame: meaning, 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 captured the strong-hold 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 will smite the Jebusites, and reach the aqueduct and the lame and the blind, that are hateful to David's soul, —Wherefore people usually say, The blind and the lame shall not 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 fort, and he called it “The City of David.” And David built [it] round about from the 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 went on, and became greater and greater, and the Lord the God of hosts was with him.

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

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

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 felt conscious that the Lord has established him as king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel.

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

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 Yibchar, and Elishua', and Nepheg, and Yaphia',

Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,

16 And Elishama', and Elyada', and Eliphelet.

Elishama, Eliada, ac Eliphelet.

17 But when the Philistines heard that the people had anointed David as king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David: and David heard of it, and went down to the strong-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 The Philistines also came and spread themselves out in the valley of Rephaim.

Mwet Philistia elos utyak nu Infahlfal Rephaim ac muta we.

19 And David asked counsel 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 Ba'al-perazim, and David smote them there, and said, The Lord hath broken down my enemies before me, as a breach [is made by] water. Wherefore he called the name of that place Ba'al-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 behind there their idols, and David and his men burnt them.

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 once again, and spread themselves out in the valley of Rephaim.

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

23 And when David asked counsel of the Lord, he said, Thou shalt not go up; but turn about and fall in the rear of them, and come upon them opposite to 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 walking on the top of the mulberry-trees, that thou shalt then bestir thyself; for then will the Lord go out before thee, to smite in the camp 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 had commanded him; and he smote the Philistines from Geba' until thou comest 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.
