1 Then Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, carpenters, and masons. They built a house for him.

And he sent (Huram *Q(K)*) [the] king of Tyre messengers to David and wood of cedar and craftsmen of a wall and craftsmen of wood to build for him a house.

2 David knew that Yahweh had established him as king over Israel, and that his kingdom was exalted on high for the sake of his people Israel.

And he knew David that he had appointed him Yahweh to king over Israel that [was] exalted upwards kingdom his for sake of people his Israel.

3 In Jerusalem, David took more wives, and he became the father of more sons and daughters.

And he took David again wives in Jerusalem and he fathered David again sons and daughters.

4 These were the names of the children who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,

And these [are] [the] names of the [ones] born who they belonged to him in Jerusalem Shammua and Shobab Nathan and Solomon.

5 Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,

And Ibhar and Elishua and Elpelet.

6 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,

And Nogah and Nepheg and Japhia.

7 Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

And Elishama and Beeliada and Eliphelet.

8 Now when the Philistines heard that David had been anointed as king over all Israel, they all went out looking for him. But David heard about it and went out against them.

And they heard [the] Philistines that he had been anointed David to king over all Israel and they went up all [the] Philistines to seek David and he heard David and he went out before them.

9 Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the Valley of Rephaim.

And [the] Philistines they had come and they had made a raid in [the] valley of [the] Rephaites.

10 Then David asked for help from God. He said, “Should I attack the Philistines? Will you give victory over them?” Yahweh said to him, “Attack, for I will certainly give them to you.”

And he enquired David by God saying ¿ will I go up on ([the] Philistines *Q(k)*) and will you give? them in hand my and he said to him Yahweh go up and I will give them in hand your.

11 So they came up to Baal Perazim, and there he defeated them. He commented, “God has burst through my enemies by my hand like a bursting flood of water.” So the name of that place became Baal Perazim.

And they went up at Baal Perazim and he struck down them there David and he said David he has burst out against God enemies my by hand my like a bursting out of water there-fore people called [the] name of the place that Baal Perazim.

12 The Philistines abandoned their gods there, and David gave an order that they should be burned.

And they abandoned there gods their and he spoke David and they were burned with fire.

13 Then the Philistines raided the valley yet again.

And they repeated again [the] Philistines and they made a raid in the valley.

14 So David asked for help from God again. God said to him, “You must not attack their front, but rather circle around behind them and come on them through the balsam woods.

And he enquired again David by God and he said to him God not you will go up after them go around from on them and you will come to them from [the] front of the balsam trees.

15 When you hear the sound of marching in the wind blowing through the balsam treetops, then attack with force. Do this because God will have gone out before you to attack the army of the Philistines.”

So may it be when hearing you [the] sound of marching in [the] tops of the balsam trees then you will go out in battle for he has gone out God before you to strike down [the] camp of [the] Philistines.

16 So David did as God had commanded him. He defeated the army of the Philistines from Gibeon all the way to Gezer.

And he did David just as he had commanded him God and they struck down [the] camp of [the] Philistines from Gibeon and to Gezer.

17 Then David's fame went out into all lands, and Yahweh caused all nations to fear him.

And it went out [the] name of David in all the lands and Yahweh he put dread of him on all the nations.
