< 1 Chronicles 11 >

1 And gathered are all Israel unto David to Hebron, saying, 'Lo, thy bone and thy flesh [are] we;
Na Israel nyinaa kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn wɔ Hebron kɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛn nyinaa yɛ wʼabusuafoɔ.
2 even in time past, even in Saul's being king, it is thou who art taking out and bringing in Israel, and Jehovah thy God saith to thee: Thou dost feed My people Israel, and thou art leader over My people Israel.'
Mmerɛ tenten bi a atwam, mpo ɛberɛ a Saulo di yɛn so ɔhene no, na wone obi a nokorɛm na wodi Israel anim. Na Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn, aka kyerɛ wo sɛ, ‘Wobɛyɛ odwanhwɛfoɔ ama me nkurɔfoɔ Israel. Wobɛyɛ wɔn sodifoɔ.’”
3 And all the elders of Israel come in unto the king to Hebron, and David maketh with them a covenant in Hebron before Jehovah, and they anoint David for king over Israel, according to the word of Jehovah by the hand of Samuel.
Enti, Dawid ne Israel ntuanofoɔ no yɛɛ apam wɔ Awurade anim wɔ Hebron. Wɔsraa no ngo, sii no Israelhene sɛdeɛ Awurade nam Samuel so hyɛɛ ho bɔ no.
4 And David goeth, and all Israel, to Jerusalem — it [is] Jebus — and there the Jebusite, the inhabitants of the land.
Na Dawid ne Israel nyinaa kɔɔ Yerusalem anaa Yebus, sɛdeɛ na wɔfrɛ hɔ kane no, ɛfiri sɛ, Yebusifoɔ na wɔkɔtenaa asase no so kane kyekyereeɛ.
5 And the inhabitants of Jebus say to David, 'Thou dost not come in hither;' and David captureth the fortress of Zion — it [is] the city of David.
Nnipa a wɔfiri Yebus no ka kyerɛɛ Dawid sɛ, “Worentumi mma ha da biara da.” Nanso, Dawid faa aban a na ɛwɔ Sion a wɔfrɛ no Dawid Kuro no.
6 And David saith, 'Whoever smiteth the Jebusite first doth become head and prince;' and go up first doth Joab son of Zeruiah and becometh head.
Dawid ka kyerɛɛ nʼakodɔm no sɛ, “Mo mu biara a ɔbɛdi anim na yɛakɔto ahyɛ Yebusifoɔ no so no, ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ mʼakodɔm so sahene.” Na Dawid nuabaa Seruia babarima Yoab dii ntohyɛsoɔ no anim, enti ɔbɛyɛɛ Dawid akodɔm so sahene.
7 And David dwelleth in the fortress, therefore they have called it, 'City of David;'
Dawid tenaa aban no mu, na ɛno enti na wɔfrɛɛ hɔ Dawid kuro no.
8 and he buildeth the city round about, from Millo, and unto the circumference, and Joab restoreth the rest of the city.
Dawid kyekyeree kuro no, trɛɛ mu firi Milo de twaa ho hyiaeɛ, ɛberɛ a na Yoab nso rekyekyere Yerusalem nkaeɛ no.
9 And David goeth, going on and becoming great, and Jehovah of Hosts [is] with him.
Na Dawid tumi yɛɛ kɛseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, na Asafo Awurade ka ne ho.
10 And these [are] heads of the mighty ones whom David hath, who are strengthening themselves with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to cause him to reign, according to the word of Jehovah, over Israel.
Yeinom ne Dawid nnɔmmarima ntuanofoɔ. Wɔne Israel nyinaa boom, sii gyinaeɛ sɛ wɔde Dawid bɛyɛ wɔn so ɔhene sɛdeɛ Awurade ahyɛ bɔ afa Israel ho no.
11 And this [is] an account of the mighty ones whom David hath: Jashobeam son of a Hachmonite [is] head of the thirty; he is lifting up his spear against three hundred — wounded, at one time.
Dawid nnɔmmarima no ho nsɛm nie: Deɛ ɔdi ɛkan no ne Yasobeam, a ɔyɛ Hakmonini a na ɔda Baasa no ano sɛ ɔsahene—Baasa no yɛ nnɔmmarima akatakyie a na wɔwɔ Dawid asraafoɔ mu. Ɛberɛ bi, ɔde ne pea kunkumm atamfoɔ ahasa wɔ akodie baako mu.
12 And after him [is] Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite, he [is] among the three mighty;
Deɛ ɔtɔ so mmienu wɔ Baasa no mu no yɛ Dodo babarima Eleasa a ɔyɛ Ahoa aseni.
13 he hath been with David in Pas-Dammim, and the Philistines have been gathered there to battle, and a portion of the field is full of barley, and the people have fled from the face of the Philistines,
Ɛberɛ a Dawid sɔre tiaa Filistifoɔ wɔ Pas-Damim no, na ɔka ne ho. Ɔko no sii wɔ baabi a na ɛyɛ atokofuo nko, na Israel asraafoɔ no dwaneeɛ.
14 and they station themselves in the midst of the portion, and deliver it, and smite the Philistines, and Jehovah saveth — a great salvation.
Nanso, Eleasa ne Dawid gyinaa wɔn nan so wɔ afuo no mfimfini, bɔɔ Filistifoɔ guiɛ. Na Awurade maa wɔdii nkonim de gyee wɔn.
15 And three of the thirty heads go down on the rock unto David, unto the cave of Adullam, and the host of the Philistines is encamping in the valley of Rephaim,
Ɛda bi a Dawid wɔ ɔbotan bi a ɛbɛn Adulam ɔbodan ho no, na Filistifoɔ asraadɔm akyere sraban wɔ Refaim bɔnhwa mu. Baasa no a na wɔka Aduasa no a wɔagye edin wɔ Dawid akodɔm mu no siane kɔhyiaa no wɔ hɔ.
16 and David [is] then in the fortress, and the station of the Philistines [is] then in Beth-Lehem,
Saa ɛberɛ no, na Dawid te abanbɔeɛ mu hɔ a na Filistifoɔ akodɔm kuo bi akɔtena Betlehem.
17 and David longeth, and saith, 'Who doth give me to drink water from the well of Beth-Lehem, that [is] at the gate!'
Dawid firi akɔnnɔ mu kaeɛ sɛ, “Ao me kɔn dɔ nsu pa a ɛwɔ abura a ɛwɔ Betlehem no bi; deɛ ɛbɛn ɛpono ano no bi.”
18 And the three break through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water from the well of Beth-Lehem, that [is] at the gate, and bear and bring in unto David, and David hath not been willing to drink it, and poureth it out to Jehovah,
Enti, Baasa no bɔ wuraa Filistifoɔ no mu, kɔsaa abura no mu nsuo no bi de brɛɛ Dawid. Nanso, Dawid annom. Mmom, ɔhwie guu Awurade anim
19 and saith, 'Far be it from me, by my God, to do this; the blood of these men do I drink with their lives? for with their lives they have brought it;' and he was not willing to drink it; these [things] did the three mighty ones.
teaam sɛ, “Ɛmpare me sɛ mɛnom saa nsuo yi. Ɛsom bo te sɛ saa mmarima yi a wɔde wɔn ho bɔɔ afɔdeɛ kɔsa brɛɛ me no mogya.” Enti, Dawid annom. Yei yɛ Baasa no mmaninsɛm no bi nhwɛsoɔ.
20 And Abishai brother of Joab, he hath been head of the three: and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred — wounded, and hath a name among three.
Yoab nuabarima Abisai na na ɔtua Aduasa no ano. Ɔno na ɔde ne pea kunkumm atamfoɔ no mu ahasa. Saa mmaninsɛm yi enti na ɔgyee edin te sɛ Baasa no.
21 Of the three by the two he is honoured, and becometh their head; and unto the [first] three he hath not come.
Abisai na na ne din ahyeta yie wɔ Aduasa no mu sɛ wɔn sahene, nanso na ɔnka Baasa no ho.
22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada, son of a man of valour, of great deeds, from Kabzeel: he hath smitten the two lion-like Moabites, and he hath gone down and smitten the lion in the midst of the pit, in the day of snow.
Na Yehoiada babarima Benaia a ɔfiri Kabseel no nso wɔ hɔ. Na ɔno nso di mmaninsɛm. Ɔyɛɛ bebree a emu baako ne sɛ ɔkunkumm Moab akofoɔ akɛseɛ baanu bi. Ɛberɛ foforɔ bi nso, ɔtaa gyata maa aboa no kɔtɔɔ amena mu. Na sukyerɛmma ama fam ayɛ toro, nanso, ɔkyeree gyata no kumm no.
23 And he hath smitten the man, the Egyptian — a man of measure, five by the cubit — and in the hand of the Egyptian [is] a spear like a beam of weavers, and he goeth down unto him with a rod, and taketh violently away the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slayeth him with his own spear.
Ɛda bi a na ɔkura aporibaa nko ara no, ɔkumm Misraimni ɔkofoɔ bi a na ne tenten yɛ anammɔn nson ne fa. Na ne pea no mu pipiripie te sɛ ntomanwomfoɔ nsadua. Benaia hwam pea no firii Misraimni no nsam, de kumm no.
24 These [things] hath Benaiah son of Jehoiada done, and hath a name among the three mighty ones.
Yeinom ne mmaninsɛm a ɛmaa Yehoiada babarima Benaia gyee edin te sɛ Baasa no.
25 Of the thirty, lo, he [is] honoured, and unto the [first] three he hath not come, and David setteth him over his guard.
Wɔhyɛɛ no animuonyam sene nkaeɛ a wɔka Aduasa no ho no, nanso na ɔmfra Baasa no mu. Na Dawid yɛɛ no ne ho awɛmfoɔ no so sahene.
