< 1 Chronicles 14 >

1 And Huram king of Tyre sends messengers to David, and cedar-wood, and craftsmen of walls, and craftsmen of wood, to build a house for him.
Then sent Hiram the King of Tyrus messengers to Dauid, and cedar trees, with masons and carpenters to builde him an house.
2 And David knows that YHWH has established him for king over Israel, because of the lifting up on high of his kingdom, for the sake of His people Israel.
Therefore Dauid knewe that the Lord had confirmed him King ouer Israel, and that his kingdome was lift vp on hie, because of his people Israel.
3 And David takes wives again in Jerusalem, and David begets sons and daughters again;
Also Dauid tooke moe wiues at Ierusalem, and Dauid begate moe sonnes and daughters.
4 and these [are] the names of the children whom he has in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,
And these are the names of the children which he had at Ierusalem, Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Salomon,
5 and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet,
And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet,
6 and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Iaphia,
7 and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.
And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.
8 And the Philistines hear that David has been anointed for king over all Israel, and all the Philistines go up to seek David, and David hears, and goes out before them.
But when the Philistims heard that Dauid was anointed King ouer Israel, all the Philistims came vp to seeke Dauid. And when Dauid heard, he went out against them.
9 And the Philistines have come, and rush into the Valley of Rephaim,
And the Philistims came, and spred them selues in the valley of Rephaim.
10 and David asks of God, saying, “Do I go up against the Philistines—and have You given them into my hand?” And YHWH says to him, “Go up, and I have given them into your hand.”
Then Dauid asked counsel at God, saying, Shall I goe vp against the Philistims, and wilt thou deliuer them into mine hande? And the Lord saide vnto him, Goe vp: for I will deliuer them into thine hande.
11 And they go up into Ba‘al-Perazim, and David strikes them there, and David says, “God has broken up my enemies by my hand, like the breaking up of waters”; therefore they have called the name of that place Ba‘al-Perazim.
So they came vp to Baal-perazim, and Dauid smote them there: and Dauid said, God hath deuided mine enemies with mine hande, as waters are deuided: therefore they called the name of that place, Baal-perazim.
12 And they leave their gods there, and David commands, and they are burned with fire.
And there they had left their gods: and Dauid said, Let them euen be burnt with fire.
13 And the Philistines add again, and rush into the valley,
Againe the Philistims came and spread them selues in the valley.
14 and David asks again of God, and God says to him, “Do not go up after them, turn around from them, and you have come to them from the front [[or in front]] of the mulberries;
And when Dauid asked againe counsell at God, God said to him, Thou shalt not goe vp after them, but turne away from them, that thou mayest come vpon them ouer against the mulberie trees.
15 and it comes to pass, when you hear the sound of the stepping at the heads of the mulberries, then you go out into battle, for God has gone out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”
And when thou hearest the noyse of one going in the toppes of the mulberie trees, then goe out to battel: for God is gone foorth before thee, to smite the hoste of the Philistims.
16 And David does as God commanded him, and they strike the camp of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer;
So Dauid did as God had commanded him: and they smote the hoste of the Philistims from Gibeon euen to Gezer.
17 and the name of David goes out into all the lands, and YHWH has put his fear on all the nations.
And the fame of Dauid went out into all landes, and the Lord brought the feare of him vpon all nations.
