2 Samuel 5

1 And alle the lynagis of Israel camen to Dauid, in Ebron, and seiden, Lo! we ben thi boon and thi fleisch.

And they came all [the] tribes of Israel to David Hebron towards and they said saying here [are] we [are] bone your and flesh your we.

2 But also yistirdai and the thridde day ago, whanne Saul was kyng on vs, thou leddist out, and leddist ayen Israel; forsothe the Lord seide to thee, Thou schalt fede my puple Israel, and thou schalt be duyk on Israel.

Both yesterday as well as three days ago when was Saul king over us you (you were *Q(k)*) (the [one who] led out *Q(K)*) (and the [one who] brought *Q(k)*) Israel and he said Yahweh to you you you will shepherd people my Israel and you you will become ruler over Israel.

3 Also and the eldere men of Israel camen to the kyng, in Ebron; and kyng Dauid smoot with hem boond of pees in Ebron, bifor the Lord; and thei anoyntiden Dauid in to kyng on Israel.

And they came all [the] elders of Israel to the king Hebron towards and he made to them the king David a covenant at Hebron before Yahweh and they anointed David to king over Israel.

4 Dauid was a sone of thretti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnyde fourti yeer in Ebron;

[was] a son of Thirty year[s] David when became king he forty year[s] he reigned.

5 he regnede on Juda seuene yeer and sixe monethis; forsothe in Jerusalem he regnede thretti and thre yeer, on al Israel and Juda.

In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three year[s] over all Israel and Judah.

6 And the kyng yede, and alle men that weren with hym, in to Jerusalem, to Jebusey, dweller of the lond. And it was seide of hem to Dauid, Thou schalt not entre hidur, no but thou do awei blynde men and lame, seiynge, Dauid schal not entre hydur.

And he went the king and men his Jerusalem against the Jebusite[s] [the] inhabitant[s] of the land and it said to David saying not you will come here that except he will turn aside you the blind [people] and the lame [people] saying not he will come David here.

7 Forsothe Dauid took the tour of Syon; this is the citee of Dauid.

And he captured David [the] stronghold of Zion it [is] [the] city of David.

8 For Dauid hadde `sette forth meede in that dai to hym, that hadde smyte Jebusei, and hadde touchid the goteris of roouys, and hadde take awey lame men and blynde, hatynge the lijf of Dauid. Therfor it is seid in prouerbe, A blynde man and lame schulen not entre in to the temple.

And he said David on the day that any [one who] strikes a Jebusite and let him approach by the water tunnel the lame [people] and the blind [people] ([who are] hated *Q(K)*) of [the] self of David there-fore people say a blind [person] and a lame [person] not he will go into the house.

9 Forsothe Dauid dwellide in the tour, and clepide it the citee of Dauid; and he bildide bi cumpas fro Mello, and with ynne.

And he dwelt David in the stronghold and he called it [the] city of David and he built David round about from the Millo and [the] inside towards.

10 And he entride profitynge and encreessynge; and the Lord God of oostis was with hym.

And he went David going and becoming great and Yahweh [the] God of hosts [was] with him.

11 Also Hyram, kyng of Tire, sent messangeris to Dauid, and cedre trees, and crafti men of trees, and crafti men of stoonus to wallis; and thei bildiden the hows of Dauid.

And he sent Hiram [the] king of Tyre messengers to David and trees of cedars and craftsmen of wood and craftsmen of [the] stone of a wall and they built a house for David.

12 And Dauid knew, that the Lord hadde confermed hym kyng on Israel, and that he hadde enhaunsid his rewme on his puple Israel.

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

13 Therfor Dauid took yit concubyns, and wyues of Jerusalem, after that he cam fro Ebron; and also othere sones and douytris weren borun to Dauid.

And he took David again concubines and wives from Jerusalem after came he from Hebron and they were born again to David sons and daughters.

14 And these ben the names of hem that weren borun to hym in Jerusalem; Samua, and Sobab, and Nathan,

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

15 and Salomon, and Jobaar, and Helisua,

And Ibhar and Elishua and Nepheg and Japhia.

16 and Repheg, and Japhia, and Helysama, and Holida, and Heliphelech.

And Elishama and Eliada and Eliphelet.

17 Therfor Filisteis herden, that thei hadden anoyntid Dauid kyng on Israel, and alle Filisteis stieden to seke Dauid. And whanne Dauid hadde herd this, he yede doun into a strong hold.

And they heard [the] Philistines that people had anointed David to king over Israel and they went up all [the] Philistines to seek David and he heard David and he went down to the stronghold.

18 Forsothe Filisteis camen, and weren spred abrood in the valei of Raphaym.

And [the] Philistines they came and they were spread out in [the] valley of Rephaim.

19 And Dauid counseilide the Lord, and seide, Whether Y schal stie to Filisties, and whether thou schalt yyue hem in myn hond? And the Lord seide to Dauid, Stie thou, for Y schal bitake, and Y schal yyue Filisteis in thin hond.

And he enquired David by Yahweh saying ¿ will I go up against [the] Philistines ¿ will you give them in hand my and he said Yahweh to David go up for certainly I will give the Philistines in hand your.

20 Therfor Dauid cam in to Baal Farasym, and smoot hem there, and seide, The Lord departide myn enemyes bifor me, as watris ben departid. Therfor the name of that place was clepid Baal Farasym.

And he went David in Baal Perazim and he struck down them there David and he said he has burst through Yahweh enemies my before me like a bursting out of water there-fore someone called [the] name of the place that Baal Perazim.

21 And thei leften there her sculptils, whiche Dauid took, and hise men.

And they abandoned there idols their and he carried off them David and men his.

22 And Filisteis addiden yit, that thei schulden stie, and thei weren spred abrood in the valey of Raphaym.

And they repeated again [the] Philistines to go up and they were spread out in [the] valley of Rephaim.

23 Sotheli Dauid councelide the Lord, and seide, Whether Y schal stie agens Filisties, and whether thou schalt bitake hem in to myn hondis? Which answeride, Thou schalt not stie ayens hem, but cumpasse thou bihynde her bak, and thou schalt come to hem on the contrarie side of the pere trees.

And he enquired David by Yahweh and he said not you must go up go around to behind them and you will go to them from in front of [the] balsam trees.

24 And whanne thou schalt here the sown of cry goynge in the cop of `pere trees, thanne thou schalt biginne batel; for thanne the Lord schal go out befor thi face, that he smyte the castels of Filisteis.

And let it be (just as hearing you *Q(K)*) a sound of marching in [the] tops of the balsam trees then you will act decisively for then he has gone out Yahweh before you to strike [the] camp of [the] Philistines.

25 Therfor Dauid dide as the Lord comaundide to hym; and he smoot Filisteys fro Gabaa til `the while thei camen to Jezer.

And he did David so just as he had commanded him Yahweh and he struck down [the] Philistines from Geba until coming you Gezer.
