2 And Dauid knewe that the Lord hadde confermyd hym in to kyng on Israel; and that his rewme was reisid on his puple Israel.
那時達味知道上主已確定他為以色列王,並為了自己的百姓以色列,提高了他的王位。[達味的子女]

8 Forsothe the Filisteis herden that Dauid was anoyntid `in to kyng on al Israel, and alle stieden to seke Dauid. And whanne Dauid hadde herd this thing, he yede out ayens hem.
培肋舍特人聽說達味受傅,為全以色列王,遂都上來向達味尋釁。達味聽說,便出來迎擊。
9 Forsothe Filisteis camen, and weren spred abrood in the valey of Raphaym;
培肋舍特人上來侵入了勒法因平原。
10 and Dauid counselide the Lord, and seide, Whether Y schal stie to Filisteis? and whether thou schalt bitake hem in to myn hondis? And the Lord seide to hym, Stie thou, and Y schal bitake hem in thin hond.
那時,達味求問天主說:「我可以上去攻打培肋舍特人嗎﹖你將他們交在我手中嗎﹖」上主答應他說:「你上去,我必將他們交在你手中。」
11 And whanne thei hadden styed in to Baal Pharasym, Dauid smoot hem there, and seide, God hath departid myn enemyes bi myn hond, as watris ben departid. And therfor the name of that place was clepid Baal Pharasym; and thei leften there her goddis,
達味於是上到巴耳培辣親,在那裏擊敗了他們。達味因此說:「天主假我的手使我的敵人崩潰,如水破堤。」因此後人稱這地方為巴耳培辣親。
12 which Dauid comaundide to be brent.
培肋舍特人把自己的神像都遺棄在那裏,達味命人用火燒毀。
13 Forsothe another tyme Filisteis felden in, and weren spred abrood in the valei;
培肋舍特人又侵入平原。
14 and eft Dauid counseilide the Lord, and the Lord seide to hym, Thou schalt not stie aftir hem; go awei fro hem, and thou schalt come ayens hem euen ayens the pere trees.
達味又求問天主,天主對他說:「不要一直上去追擊他們,要繞到他們後方,曾桑林那邊抄他們的後路。
15 And whanne thou schalt here the sowun of a goere in the cop of the pere trees, thanne thou schalt go out to batel; for the Lord is go out byfor thee, to smyte the castels of Filisteis.
你一聽見桑樹梢上有腳步聲,要即刻出戰,因為天主在你面前出擊培肋舍特人的軍隊。」
16 Therfor Dauid dide as God comaundide to hym, and he smoot the castels of Filisteis fro Gabaon `til to Gazara.
達味就照天主所命的行了,擊殺培肋舍特人的軍隊,由基貝紅直到革則爾。
17 And the name of Dauid was puplischid in alle cuntreis, and the Lord yaf his drede on alle folkis.
因此,達味的聲名傳遍了各地,上主使各民族都害怕他。
