1 Chronicles 14
1 One day Hiram, the king of Tyre [city], sent some messengers to David [to talk about making an agreement between their countries]. Then Hiram sent cedar logs, bricklayers, and carpenters to build a palace for David.
Na rĩrĩ, Hiramu mũthamaki wa Turo, nĩatũmĩire Daudi andũ, marĩ na mĩgogo ya mĩtarakwa, na aaki a mahiga na a mbaũ, nĩguo mamwakĩre nyũmba ya ũthamaki.
2 [When that happened, ] David knew that Yahweh had truly caused him to be the king of Israel, and that he had caused his kingdom to be greatly respected. Yahweh did this because [he loved] his Israeli people.
Nake Daudi nĩamenyire atĩ Jehova nĩamũhaandĩte atuĩke mũthamaki wa Isiraeli, na atĩ ũthamaki wake nĩwatũũgĩrĩtio mũno nĩ ũndũ wa andũ ake a Isiraeli.
3 David married more women in Jerusalem, and [those women] gave birth to more sons and daughters for him.
Daudi nĩahikirie atumia angĩ arĩ kũu Jerusalemu, nake agĩtuĩka ithe wa aanake na airĩtu angĩ.
4 The names of the children that were born to him there in Jerusalem are Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,

na Elishama, na Beeliada, na Elifeleti.
8 When the army of Philistia heard that David has been appointed to be king of all of Israel, they came to capture him. But David heard that they were coming, so he [and his soldiers] marched out to fight against them.
Na rĩrĩa Afilisti maaiguire atĩ Daudi nĩaitĩrĩirio maguta agatuĩka mũthamaki wa Isiraeli guothe-rĩ, makĩambata, magĩthiĩ na mbũtũ ciao ciothe makamũcarie, nake Daudi aigua ũhoro ũcio akiumagara, agĩthiĩ akahũũrane nao.
9 The army of Philistia had attacked the people in the Rephaim Valley [southwest of Jerusalem] and had robbed them.
Na rĩrĩ, Afilisti nĩmookĩte magatharĩkĩra Gĩtuamba kĩa Refaimu;
10 David asked God, “Should [my men and] I go and attack the army of Philistia? [If we go, ] will you enable us to defeat [IDM] them?” Yahweh replied, “Yes, go, and I will enable you to defeat [IDM] them.”
nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi agĩtuĩria ũhoro kũrĩ Ngai, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ngatharĩkĩre Afilisti? Nĩũkũmaneana moko-inĩ makwa?” Nake Jehova akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ, nĩngũmaneana moko-inĩ maku.”
11 So David and his men went up to a town where the soldiers of Philistia were staying and defeated them. Then David said, “God has enabled me [and my soldiers] to overwhelm my enemies like [MET] a flood.” So they named that place {That place is called} ‘Baal-Perazim’ [which means ‘Yahweh breaks through’].
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi na andũ ake makĩambata, magĩthiĩ nginya Baali-Perazimu, na akĩmatooreria kuo. Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “O ta ũrĩa maaĩ moinaga, noguo Ngai aharaganĩtie thũ ciakwa na guoko gwakwa.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio handũ hau hagĩĩtwo Baali-Perazimu.
12 [As the soldiers of Philistia fled], they left their idols there. So David commanded his soldiers to burn those idols.
Afilisti magĩtiganĩria ngai ciao kũu, nake Daudi agĩathana ngai icio icinwo na mwaki.
13 But soon the army of Philistia attacked the people in that valley again.
Afilisti nĩmatharĩkĩire Gĩtuamba kĩu rĩngĩ;
14 So again David prayed to God [to ask him what he should do], and God replied, saying “Do not attack the army of Philistia from the front. Instead, go around them, and attack them [from the rear] in front of the balsam trees.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi agĩtuĩria ũhoro harĩ Ngai rĩngĩ, nake Ngai akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Tiga kwambata, no mathiũrũrũkĩrie, na ũmatharĩkĩre ũmarutĩtie na mbere ya mĩtĩ ya mĩkũngũgũ.
15 When you hear something in the tops of the balsam trees that sounds like [soldiers] marching, attack them. I, God, will have gone ahead of you to enable you to defeat the army of Philistia.”
Rĩrĩa ũrĩigua mũkubio uumĩte igũrũ rĩa mĩtĩ ĩyo ya mĩkũngũgũ-rĩ, thiĩ ũkarũe, tondũ ũguo nĩkuonania atĩ Ngai arĩ mbere yaku akĩhũũra ita rĩa Afilisti.”
16 So David did what God commanded him to do, and he and his army defeated the army of Philistia, all the way from Gibeon [city in the east] to Gezer [city in the west].
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa Ngai aamwathĩte, nao makĩhũũra mbũtũ cia Afilisti, o kuuma Gibeoni nginya Gezeri.
17 So David became famous in all the nearby countries, and Yahweh caused [the leaders of] all the [nearby] nations to be afraid of him.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngumo ya Daudi ĩkĩhunja o bũrũri o bũrũri, nake Jehova agĩtũma ndũrĩrĩ ciothe imwĩtigĩre.
