2 Samuel 5

1 Then came all the tribes of Israel unto David, in Hebron, —and spake, saying—Behold us! thy bone and thy flesh, we are.

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 Also, in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou, wast he that led out and brought in, Israel, —and Yahweh said to thee—Thou, shalt be shepherd unto my people, Israel, and, thou, shalt become leader 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 So all the elders of Israel came unto the king, in Hebron, and King David solemnised to them a covenant in Hebron, before Yahweh, —and they anointed David to be 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 old, was David when he began to reign, —forty years, he reigned:

David el yac tolngoul ke el mutawauk in tokosra, ac el leum yac angngaul.

5 in Hebron, reigned he over Judah, seven years, and six months, —and, in Jerusalem, reigned he 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 Then went the king and his men, to Jerusalem, against the Jebusites, inhabiting the land, —and they spake to David, saying—Thou canst not come in hither, unless thou take away the blind and lame—Thinking, David will not 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 So then David captured the citadel 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 is smiting the Jebusites, then let him reach as far as the aqueduct. But, as for the lame and the blind, they were the hated of David’s soul, —for which cause, they kept on saying, Blind and lame! he will not enter the place.

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 So then David dwelt in the citadel, and called it, The City of David, —and David built round about, from Millo and inwards.

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 on waxing great, —Yahweh, God of hosts, being with him.

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

11 Then Hiram, king of Tyre, sent messengers unto David, with cedar-wood, and carpenters, and 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 So David perceived that Yahweh had established him to be 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 him yet more concubines and wives, out of Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron, and there were, yet further, born unto David, 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 Now, these, are the names of the sons who 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 Ibhar and Elishua and Nepheg and Yaphia;

Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,

16 and Elishama and Eliada, and Eliphalet.

Elishama, Eliada, ac Eliphelet.

17 And, when the Philistine heard that they had anointed David to be king over Israel, then came up all the Philistines to seek to secure David, and David heard of it, and went down into the citadel.

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 Now, the Philistines, had come, —and had spread themselves out in the vale of Rephaim.

Mwet Philistia elos utyak nu Infahlfal Rephaim ac muta we.

19 So then David enquired of Yahweh, saying, —Shall I go up against the Philistines? Wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And Yahweh said unto David—Go up; for I, will surely 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 entered Baal-perazim, and David smote them there, and said—Yahweh hath broken forth upon mine enemies, before me, like a breaking forth of waters. For this cause, called he the name of that place, Baal-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 their images there, —and David and his men took them away.

Ke mwet Philistia kaingla, elos sisla god lalos som, na David ac mwet lal srukak ac usla ma inge.

22 And, yet again, did the Philistines come up, —and they spread themselves out in the vale of Rephaim.

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

23 So David enquired of Yahweh, and he said—Thou shalt not go up, —Get round behind them, and come in upon them, over against 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 shalt hear a sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, then, shalt thou act with decision, —for, then, will Yahweh have gone forth before thee, to smite the host 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 Yahweh had commanded him, —and smote the Philistines, from Gibeon until thou enterest Gezer.

David el oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, pwanang el tuh ukwauk mwet Philistia liki acn Geba nwe ke sun acn Gezer.
