1 Chronicles 14
1 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers unto David, and timber of cedars, with masons and artificers, to build for him a house.
Then sent Hiram the King of Tyrus messengers to Dauid, and cedar trees, with masons and carpenters to builde him an house.
2 So David perceived, that Yahweh, had confirmed him, as king over Israel, —that his kingship was exalted, 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 took more wives, in Jerusalem, —and David begat more sons and daughters.
Also Dauid tooke moe wiues at Ierusalem, and Dauid begate moe sonnes and daughters.
4 Now, these, are the names of them who were born, whom he had 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 Elpelet;
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 Eliphelet.
And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.
8 And, when the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek to secure David, —and David, hearing, went out against 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 Now, the Philistines, had come and spread themselves out, in the vale of Rephaim.
And the Philistims came, and spred them selues in the valley of Rephaim.
10 Then David asked of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And Yahweh said to him, Go up, and I will deliver them into thy 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 So they came up in Baal-perazim, and David smote them there, and David said, God hath broken forth against mine enemies by my hand, like the breaking forth of waters, —For this cause, called they the name of that place, Baal-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 left their gods there, —and David gave the word, and they were burned up in fire.
And there they had left their gods: and Dauid said, Let them euen be burnt with fire.
13 And the Philistines yet again spread themselves out in the vale.
Againe the Philistims came and spread them selues in the valley.
14 So David, asked again, of God, and God said to him, Thou shalt not go up after them, —get thee round, away from them, so shalt thou come in upon them, over against the mulberry-trees;
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 shall be, when thou hearest a sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, then, shalt thou go forth into the battle, —for God will have gone forth before thee, to smite the host 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 So David did as God commanded him, —and they smote the host of the Philistines, from Gibeon even unto Gezer.
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 went forth, throughout all the lands, —and, Yahweh, put the dread of him upon all the nations.
And the fame of Dauid went out into all landes, and the Lord brought the feare of him vpon all nations.
