Holy Bible Aionian Edition® ~ English---Youngs-Literal-Translation ~ 2-Samuel Chapter 23

< 2 Samuel 23 >

1 And these [are] the last words of David: — 'The affirmation of David son of Jesse — And the affirmation of the man raised up — Concerning the Anointed of the God of Jacob, And the Sweetness of the Songs of Israel:

haec autem sunt verba novissima quae dixit David filius Isai dixit vir cui constitutum est de christo Dei Iacob egregius psalta Israhel

2 The Spirit of Jehovah hath spoken by me, And His word [is] on my tongue.

spiritus Domini locutus est per me et sermo eius per linguam meam

3 He said — the God of Israel — to me, He spake — the Rock of Israel: He who is ruling over man [is] righteous, He is ruling in the fear of God.

dixit Deus Israhel mihi locutus est Fortis Israhel dominator hominum iustus dominator in timore Dei

4 And as the light of morning he riseth, A morning sun — no clouds! By the shining, by the rain, Tender grass of the earth!

sicut lux aurorae oriente sole mane absque nubibus rutilat et sicut pluviis germinat herba de terra

5 For — not so [is] my house with God; For — a covenant age-during He made with me, Arranged in all things, and kept; For — all my salvation, and all desire, For — He hath not caused [it] to spring up.

nec tanta est domus mea apud Deum ut pactum aeternum iniret mecum firmum in omnibus atque munitum cuncta enim salus mea et omnis voluntas nec est quicquam ex ea quod non germinet

6 As to the worthless — As a thorn driven away [are] all of them, For — not by hand are they taken;

praevaricatores autem quasi spinae evellentur universi quae non tolluntur manibus

7 And the man who cometh against them Is filled with iron and the staff of a spear, And with fire they are utterly burnt In the cessation.'

et si quis tangere voluerit eas armabitur ferro et ligno lanceato igneque succensae conburentur usque ad nihilum

8 These [are] the names of the mighty ones whom David hath: sitting in the seat [is] the Tachmonite, head of the captains — he [is] Adino, who hardened himself against eight hundred — wounded at one time.

haec nomina fortium David Sedens in cathedra sapientissimus princeps inter tres ipse est quasi tenerrimus ligni vermiculus qui octingentos interfecit impetu uno

9 And after him [is] Eleazar son of Dodo, son of Ahohi, of the three mighty men with David; in their exposing themselves among the Philistines — they have been gathered there to battle, and the men of Israel go up —

post hunc Eleazar filius patrui eius Ahoi inter tres fortes qui erant cum David quando exprobraverunt Philisthim et congregati sunt illuc in proelium

10 he hath arisen, and smiteth among the Philistines till that his hand hath been weary, and his hand cleaveth unto the sword, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation on that day, and the people turn back after him only to strip off.

cumque ascendissent viri Israhel ipse stetit et percussit Philistheos donec deficeret manus eius et obrigesceret cum gladio fecitque Dominus salutem magnam in die illa et populus qui fugerat reversus est ad caesorum spolia detrahenda

11 And after him [is] Shammah son of Agee the Hararite, and the Philistines are gathered into a company, and there is there a portion of the field full of lentiles, and the people hath fled from the presence of the Philistines,

et post hunc Semma filius Age de Arari et congregati sunt Philisthim in statione erat quippe ibi ager plenus lente cumque fugisset populus a facie Philisthim

12 and he stationeth himself in the midst of the portion, and delivereth it, and smiteth the Philistines, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation.

stetit ille in medio agri et tuitus est eum percussitque Philistheos et fecit Dominus salutem magnam

13 And three of the thirty heads go down and come unto the harvest, unto David, unto the cave of Adullam, and the company of the Philistines are encamping in the valley of Rephaim,

necnon ante descenderant tres qui erant principes inter triginta et venerant tempore messis ad David in speluncam Odollam castra autem Philisthim erant posita in valle Gigantum

14 and David [is] then in a fortress, and the station of the Philistines [is] then in Beth-Lehem,

et David erat in praesidio porro statio Philisthinorum tunc erat in Bethleem

15 and David longeth and saith, 'Who doth give me a drink of the water of the well of Beth-Lehem, which [is] by the gate?'

desideravit igitur David et ait si quis mihi daret potum aquae de cisterna quae est in Bethleem iuxta portam

16 And the three mighty ones cleave through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water out of the well of Beth-Lehem, which [is] by the gate, and take [it] up, and bring in unto David; and he was not willing to drink it, and poureth it out to Jehovah,

inruperunt ergo tres fortes castra Philisthinorum et hauserunt aquam de cisterna Bethleem quae erat iuxta portam et adtulerunt ad David at ille noluit bibere sed libavit illam Domino

17 and saith, 'Far be it from me, O Jehovah, to do this; is it the blood of the men who are going with their lives?' and he was not willing to drink it; these [things] did the three mighty ones.

dicens propitius mihi sit Dominus ne faciam hoc num sanguinem hominum istorum qui profecti sunt et animarum periculum bibam noluit ergo bibere haec fecerunt tres robustissimi

18 And Abishai brother of Joab, son of Zeruiah, he [is] head of three, and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred — wounded, and he hath a name among three.

Abisai quoque frater Ioab filius Sarviae princeps erat de tribus ipse est qui elevavit hastam suam contra trecentos quos interfecit nominatus in tribus

19 Of the three is he not the honoured? and he becometh their head; and unto the [first] three he hath not come.

et inter tres nobilior eratque eorum princeps sed usque ad tres primos non pervenerat

20 And Benaiah son of Jehoiada (son of a man of valour, great in deeds from Kabzeel), he hath smitten two lion-like men of Moab, and he hath gone down and smitten the lion in the midst of the pit in a day of snow.

et Banaias filius Ioiada viri fortissimi magnorum operum de Capsehel ipse percussit duos leones Moab et ipse descendit et percussit leonem in media cisterna diebus nivis

21 And he hath smitten the Egyptian man, a man of appearance, and in the hand of the Egyptian [is] a spear, 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.

ipse quoque interfecit virum aegyptium virum dignum spectaculo habentem in manu hastam itaque cum descendisset ad eum in virga vi extorsit hastam de manu Aegyptii et interfecit eum hasta sua

22 These [things] hath Benaiah son of Jehoiada done, and hath a name among three mighty.

haec fecit Banaias filius Ioiadae

23 Of the thirty he is honoured, and unto the three he came not; and David setteth him over his guard.

et ipse nominatus inter tres robustos qui erant inter triginta nobiliores verumtamen usque ad tres non pervenerat fecitque eum David sibi auricularium a secreto

24 Asahel brother of Joab [is] of the thirty; Elhanan son of Dodo of Beth-Lehem.

Asahel frater Ioab inter triginta Eleanan filius patrui eius de Bethleem
