< 1 Chronicles 11 >

1 And all Israel is gathered to David at Hebron, saying, “Behold, we [are] your bone and your flesh;

وَتَجَمَّعَ كُلُّ رُؤَسَاءِ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ حَوْلَ دَاوُدَ فِي حَبْرُونَ وَقَالُوا: «نَحْنُ مِنْ لَحْمِكَ وَدَمِكَ،

2 even in time past, even in Saul’s being king, it is you who are taking out and bringing in Israel, and your God YHWH says to you: You feed My people Israel, and you are leader over My people Israel.”

وَقَدْ كُنْتَ قَائِدَنَا، تَخُوضُ الْمَعَارِكَ فِي طَلِيعَتِنَا مُنْذُ الأَيَّامِ السَّابِقَةِ حِينَ كَانَ شَاوُلُ مَلِكاً عَلَيْنَا، وَقَدْ قَالَ لَكَ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ: أَنْتَ تَرْعَى شَعْبِي وَتَتَوَلَّى حُكْمَهُ».

3 And all [the] elderly of Israel come to the king at Hebron, and David makes a covenant with them in Hebron before YHWH, and they anoint David for king over Israel, according to the word of YHWH by the hand of Samuel.

وَعِنْدَمَا اجْتَمَعَ جَمِيعُ شُيُوخِ إِسْرِائِيلَ إِلَى الْمَلِكِ فِي حَبْرُونَ أَبْرَمَ مَعَهُمْ عَهْداً أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، فَمَسَحُوهُ مَلِكاً عَلَيْهِمْ تَتْمِيماً لِكَلامِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي نَطَقَ بِهِ عَلَى لِسَانِ صَمُوئِيلَ.

4 And David goes, and all Israel, to Jerusalem—it [is] Jebus—and the Jebusite [is] there, the inhabitants of the land.

وَتَوَجَّهَ دَاوُدُ عَلَى رَأْسِ الإِسْرَائِيلِيِّينَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، أَيْ يَبُوسَ الآهِلَةِ بِسُكَّانِهَا الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ.

5 And the inhabitants of Jebus say to David, “You do not come in here”; and David captures the fortress of Zion—it [is] the City of David.

فَقَالَ الْيَبُوسِيُّونَ لِدَاوُدَ: «لا يُمْكِنُكَ أَنْ تَدْخُلَ إِلَى هُنَا». فَاسْتَوْلَى دَاوُدُ عَلَى قَلْعَةِ صِهْيَوْنَ الَّتِي دُعِيَتْ فِي مَا بَعْدُ مَدِينَةَ دَاوُدَ.

6 And David says, “Whoever strikes the Jebusite first becomes head and prince”; and Joab son of Zeruiah goes up first and becomes head.

ثُمَّ قَالَ دَاوُدُ لِرِجَالِهِ: «إِنَّ مَنْ يَقْتَحِمُ الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ يُصْبِحُ قَائِداً لِلْجَيْشِ». فَهَاجَمَهُمْ يُوآبُ ابْنُ صُرُوِيَّةَ أَوَّلاً، وَأَصْبَحَ هُوَ الْقَائِدَ.

7 And David dwells in the fortress, therefore they have called it the City of David;

وَمَكَثَ دَاوُدُ فِي الْحِصْنِ فَدُعِيَ لِذَلِكَ مَدِينَةَ دَاوُدَ.

8 and he builds the city all around, from Millo, and to the circumference, and Joab restores the rest of the city.

وَبَنَى الْمَدِينَةَ مِنْ حَوْلِهَا ابْتِدَاءً مِنَ الْقَلْعَةِ إِلَى السُّورِ الْمُحِيطِ بِها. ثُمَّ قَامَ يُوآبُ بِتَجْدِيدِ سَائِرِ الْمَدِينَةِ.

9 And David goes, going on and becoming great, and YHWH of Hosts [is] with him.

وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يَزْدَادُ عُلُوَّ شَأْنٍ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ الْقَدِيرَ كَانَ مَعَهُ.

10 And these [are] heads of the mighty ones whom David has, who are strengthening themselves with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to cause him to reign, according to the word of YHWH, over Israel.

وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ الرِّجَالِ الَّذِينَ آزَرُوهُ مَعَ بَقِيَّةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيَجْعَلُوهُ مَلِكاً، بِمُقْتَضَى وَعْدِ الرَّبِّ الْمُتَعَلِّقِ بِإِسْرَائِيلَ،

١٠

11 And this [is] an account of the mighty ones whom David has: Jashobeam son of a Hachmonite [is] head of the thirty; he is lifting up his spear against three hundred—wounded, at one time.

وَهَؤُلاءِ هُمْ أَبْطَالُ دَاوُدَ: يَشُبْعَامُ بْنُ حَكْمُونِي، رَئِيسُ الأَبْطَالِ الثَّلاثَةِ، هَاجَمَ بِرُمْحِهِ ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ وَقَتَلَهُمْ دُفْعَةً وَاحِدَةً.

١١

12 And after him [is] Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite, he [is] among the three mighty;

ثُمَّ أَلِعَازَارُ بْنُ دُودُو الأَخُوخِيُّ، وَهُوَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الأَبْطَالِ الثَّلاثَةِ.

١٢

13 he has been with David in Pas-Dammim, and the Philistines have been gathered there to battle, and a portion of the field is full of barley, and the people have fled from the face of the Philistines,

كَانَ مَعَ دَاوُدَ فِي فَسَّ دَمِّيمَ حِينَ احْتَشَدَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ لِلْحَرْبِ فِي حَقْلِ شَعِيرٍ، فَهَرَبَ الْجَيْشُ أَمَامَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ.

١٣

14 and they station themselves in the midst of the portion, and deliver it, and strike the Philistines, and YHWH saves [with] a great salvation.

غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ ثَبَتَ مَعَ رِجَالِهِ فِي وَسَطِ الْحَقْلِ وَأَنْقَذَهُ وَقَضَى عَلَى الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، فَآتَاهُمُ الرَّبُّ نُصْرَةً عَظِيمَةً.

١٤

15 And three of the thirty heads go down on the rock to David, to the cave of Adullam, and the host of the Philistines is encamping in the Valley of Rephaim,

وَانْحَدَرَ ثَلاثَةٌ مِنَ الثَّلاثِينَ قَائِداً إِلَى الْمِنْطَقَةِ الصَّخْرِيَّةِ حَيْثُ كَانَ دَاوُدُ يُقِيمُ فِي مَغَارَةِ عَدُلَّامَ، بَيْنَمَا جَيْشُ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مُعَسْكِرٌ فِي وَادِي الرَّفَائِيِّينَ.

١٥

16 and David [is] then in the fortress, and the station of the Philistines [is] then in Beth-Lehem,

وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ آنَئِذٍ مُتَمَنِّعاً فِي الْحِصْنِ، وَحَامِيَةُ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ قَدِ احْتَلَّتْ بَيْتَ لَحْمٍ.

١٦

17 and David longs and says, “Who gives me water to drink from the well of Beth-Lehem that [is] at the gate!”

فَتَأَوَّهَ دَاوُدُ وَقَالَ: «مَنْ يَسْقِينِي مَاءً مِنْ بِئْرِ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ الْقَائِمَةِ عِنْدَ بَوَّابَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ؟»

١٧

18 And the three break through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water from the well of Beth-Lehem that [is] at the gate, and carry and bring [it] to David, and David has not been willing to drink it, and pours it out to YHWH,

فَاقْتَحَمَ الثَّلاثَةُ مُعَسْكَرَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَجَاءُوا بِمَاءٍ مِنْ بِئْرِ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ الْقَائِمَةِ عِنْدَ بَوَّابَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَحَمَلُوهُ إِلَى دَاوُدَ، فَأَبَى أَنْ يَشْرَبَ مِنْهُ وَسَكَبَهُ لِلرَّبِّ.

١٨

19 and says, “Far be it from me, by my God, to do this; do I drink the blood of these men with their lives? For with their lives they have brought it”; and he was not willing to drink it; these [things] the three mighty ones did.

وَقَالَ: «مَعَاذَ اللهِ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ ذَلِكَ! أَأَشْرَبُ دَمَ هَؤُلاءِ الرِّجَالِ الَّذِينَ جَازَفُوا بِحَيَاتِهِمْ، إِذْ خَاطَرُوا بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ لِيَأْتُوا بِهِ إِلَيَّ؟» وَأَبَى أَنْ يَشْرَبَ مِنْهُ. هَذَا مَا أَقْدَمَ عَلَيْهِ الأَبْطَالُ الثَّلاثَةُ.

١٩

20 And Abishai brother of Joab, he has been head of the three: and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred—wounded, and has a name among three.

وَكَانَ أَبِيشَايُ أَخُو يُوآبَ رَئِيسَ الثَّلاثِينَ أَيْضاً، وَقَدْ هَاجَمَ بِرُمْحِهِ ثَلاثَ مِئَةٍ فَقَتَلَهُمْ، وَاشْتَهَرَ اسْمُهُ إِلَى جَانِبِ الْقُوَّادِ الثَّلاثَةِ.

٢٠

21 Of the three he is more honored than the [other] two, and becomes their head; but he has not come to the [first] three.

وَمَعَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ مَرْتَبَةَ الْقُوَّادِ الثَّلاثَةِ الأَوَّلِينَ، إِلّا أَنَّهُ كَانَ قَائِداً لِلثَّلاثِينَ رَئِيساً.

٢١

22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada, son of a man of valor, of great deeds, from Kabzeel: he has struck the two lion-like Moabites, and he has gone down and struck the lion in the midst of the pit, in the day of snow.

وَهُنَاكَ أَيْضاً بَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ، مُحَارِبٌ جَبَّارٌ كَثِيرُ الْبُطُولاتِ، مِنْ قَبْصِيئِيلَ، وَهُوَ الَّذِي قَتَلَ بَطَلَيْ مُوآبَ، وَقَضَى عَلَى أَسَدٍ فِي وَسَطِ جُبٍّ فِي يَوْمٍ مُثْلِجٍ،

٢٢

23 And he has struck the man, the Egyptian, a man of [great] measure—five by the cubit—and in the hand of the Egyptian [is] a spear like a weavers’ beam, and he goes down to him with a rod, and violently takes away the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slays him with his own spear.

كَمَا قَتَلَ عِمْلاقاً مِصْرِيًّا طُولُهُ خَمْسُ أَذْرُعٍ (نَحْوَ مِتْرَيْنِ وَنِصْفٍ)، كَانَ مُتَسَلِّحاً بِرُمْحٍ كَنَوْلِ النَّسَّاجِينَ، فَتَقَدَّمَ مِنْهُ بِعَصاً وَخَطَفَ الرُّمْحَ مِنْ يَدِهِ وَقَتَلَهُ بِهِ.

٢٣

24 These [things] Benaiah son of Jehoiada has done, and has a name among the three mighty ones.

هَذَا مَا أَقْدَمَ عَلَيْهِ بَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ فَذَاعَتْ شُهْرَتُهُ إِلَى جَانِبِ الأَبْطَالِ الثَّلاثَةِ،

٢٤

25 Of the thirty, behold, he [is] honored, but he has not come to the [first] three, and David sets him over his guard.

وَعَلا شَأْنُهُ بَيْنَ الثَّلاثِينَ قَائِداً، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ مَرْتَبَةَ الأَبْطَالِ الثَّلاثَةِ. فَجَعَلَهُ دَاوُدُ مِنْ أُمَنَاءِ سِرِّهِ.

٢٥

26 And the mighty ones of the forces [are] Asahel brother of Joab, Elhanan son of Dodo of Beth-Lehem,

أَمَّا أَبْطَالُ الْجَيْشِ فَهُمْ: عَسَائِيلُ أَخُو يُوآبَ، وَأَلْحَانَانُ بْنُ دُودُوَ مِنْ بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ.

27 Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,

وَشَمُّوتُ الْهَرُورِيُّ، وَحَالَصُ الْفَلُونِيُّ،
