2 Samuel 5
1 Then [the leaders of] all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron, and said to him, “Listen, we have the same ancestors [IDM] that you do.
Derpå kom alle Israels Stammer til David i Hebron og sagde: "Vi er jo dit Kød og Blod!
2 In the past, when Saul was our king, it was you who led our Israeli soldiers [in our battles]. You are the one to whom Yahweh promised, ‘You will be the leader [MET] of my people; you will be their king.’”
Allerede før i Tiden, da Saul var Konge over os, var det dig, som førte Israel ud i Kamp og hjem igen; og HERREN sagde til dig: Du skal vogte mit Folk Israel og være Hersker over Israel!"
3 So while Yahweh was listening, all those leaders of the people of Israel declared there at Hebron [that David would be their king]. And David made a sacred agreement with them. They anointed him [with olive oil to set him apart] to be the king of the Israeli people.
Og alle Israels Ældste kom til Kongen i Hebron, og Kong David sluttede i Hebron Pagt med dem for HERRENs Åsyn, og de salvede David til Konge over Israel.
4 David was 30 years old when he became their king. He ruled them for 40 years.
David var tredive År, da han blev Konge, og han herskede fyrretyve År.
5 In Hebron he ruled over the tribe of Judah for seven and a half years, and in Jerusalem he ruled over all the people of Judah and Israel for 33 years.
I Hebron herskede han over Juda syv År og seks Måneder, og i Jerusalem herskede han tre og tredive År over hele Israel og Juda.
6 [One day] King David and his soldiers went to Jerusalem to fight against the Jebus people-group who lived there. The people there thought that David’s army would not be able to capture the city, so they sent a message to David, saying “Your army will never be able to get inside our city! Even the blind and crippled people will be able to chase you away!”
Derpå drog Kongen med sine Mænd til Jerusalem mod Jebusiterne, som boede deri Landet. Man sagde til Kongen: "Her kan du ikke trænge ind, thi blinde og lamme vil slå dig tilbage!" Dermed vilde de sige: "David kommer ikke herind!"
7 But David’s army captured the fortress on Zion [Hill], [and later it was known as] David’s City.
Men David indtog Klippeborgen Zion, det er Davidsbyen.
8 On that day, David said [to his soldiers], “Those who want to get rid of the Jebus people-group should go through the water tunnel [to enter the city]. Then they can attack those people whom I [SYN] detest—[and we will find out if any] blind and crippled people [will be able to stop them]!” That is why people say, “Blind and crippled people cannot enter Yahweh’s temple.”
På den Dag sagde David: "Enhver, som trænger frem til Vandledningen og slår en Jebusit, de halte og blinde, som Davids Sjæl hader, skal være Øverste og Hærfører". Derfor siger man: "En blind og en lam kommer ikke ind i Huset!"
9 [After] David [and his soldiers captured] the city with its strong walls around it, he lived there, and they named it ‘David’s City’. David [and his soldiers] built the city around the fortress, starting where the [land was (filled in/terraces) on the east side of the hill].
Så tog David Bolig i Klippeborgen og kaldte den Davidsbyen; og han befæstede Byen rundt om fra Millo og indefter.
10 David continued to become more and more powerful/influential, because the Almighty Commander of the armies of angels was with/helping him.
Og David blev mægtigere og mægtigere; HERREN, Hærskarers Gud, var med ham.
11 [One day] Hiram, the king of Tyre [city], sent ambassadors/messengers to David [to talk about making agreements between their countries]. Hiram agreed to provide cedar trees [to make lumber], and also that he would send carpenters and masons, to build a palace for David.
Kong Hiram af Tyrus sendte Sendebud til David med Cedertræer og tillige Tømmermænd og Stenhuggere, som byggede ham et Hus.
12 His doing that caused David to realize that Yahweh truly had appointed him to be the king of Israel, and that Yahweh was going to cause his kingdom to prosper, because Yahweh loved the Israeli people, whom [he had chosen to] belong to him.
Da skønnede David, at HERREN havde sikret hans Kongemagt over Israel og højnet hans Kongedømme for sit Folk Israels Skyld.
13 After David moved from Hebron to Jerusalem, he took more slave women to be his second-class wives, and he also married other women. [All of those women] gave birth to more sons and daughters.
David tog i Jerusalem endnu flere Medhustruer og Hustruer, efter at han var kommet dertil fra Hebron, og der fødtes ham flere Sønner og Døtre.
14 The names of the sons who were born in Jerusalem were Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
Navnene på dem, som fødtes ham i Jerusalem, er følgende: Sjammua, Sjobab, Natan, Salomo,
15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
Jibhar, Elisjua, Nefeg, Jafia,
16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
Elisjama, Ba'aljada og Elifelet.
17 When the Philistia people heard that David had been appointed to be the king of Israel, their army went up [toward Jerusalem] to try to capture David. But David heard that they were coming, so he went down to another fortified place.
Men da Filisterne hørte, at David var salvet til Konge over Israel, rykkede de alle ud for at søge efter ham. Ved Efterretningen herom drog David ned til Klippeborgen,
18 The [army of] Philistia arrived at Rephaim Valley [southwest of Jerusalem] and spread all over the valley.
medens Filisterne kom og bredte sig i Refaimdalen.
19 David asked Yahweh, “Should [my men and] I attack the Philistia army? Will you enable us to defeat them [IDM]?” Yahweh replied, “Yes, attack them, because I will certainly enable your army to defeat them. [IDM]”
David rådspurgte da HERREN: "Skal jeg drage op mod Filisterne? Vil du give dem i min Hånd?" Og HERREN svarede David: "Drag op, thi jeg vil give Filisterne i din Hånd!"
20 So David [and his army] went to [where the Philistia army was], and there they defeated them. Then David said, “Yahweh has burst through my enemies like a flood.” [SIM] So that place is called ‘Lord of Bursting-through’.
Så drog David til Ba'al-Perazim, og der slog han dem. Da sagde han: "HERREN har brudt igennem mine Fjender foran mig, som Vand bryder igennem!" Derfor kalder man Stedet Ba'al-Perazim.
21 The Philistia men left their idols there; so David and his soldiers took them away.
Og de lod deres Guder i Stikken der, og David og hans Mænd tog dem.
22 Then the Philistia [army] returned to Rephaim Valley and spread all over the valley.
Men Filisterne bredte sig på ny i Refaimdalen.
23 So again David asked Yahweh [if his army should attack them]. But Yahweh replied, “Do not attack them [from here]. Tell your men to go around them and attack them from the other side, near the balsam trees.
Da David rådspurgte HERREN, svarede han: "Drag ikke imod dem, men omgå dem og fald dem i Ryggen ud for Bakabuskene.
24 When you hear something in the tops of the balsam trees that sounds like [an army] marching, attack them, because I will have gone ahead of you [to enable your army] to defeat their army.”
Når du da hører Lyden af Skridt i Bakabuskenes Toppe, skal du skynde dig, thi så er HERREN draget ud foran dig for at slå Filisternes Hær!"
25 So David did what Yahweh told him to do, and his [army] defeated the Philistia army from Geba [city] all the way [west] to Gezer [city].
David gjorde, som HERREN bød, og slog Filisterne fra Gibeon til hen imod Gezer.
