2 Samuel 5

1 And all the tribes of Israel come unto David, to Hebron, and speak, saying, 'Lo, we [are] thy bone and thy flesh;

Et venerunt universæ tribus Israel ad David in Hebron, dicentes: Ecce nos, os tuum, et caro tua sumus.

2 also heretofore, in Saul's being king over us, thou hast been he who is bringing out and bringing in Israel, and Jehovah saith to thee, Thou dost feed My people Israel, and thou art for leader over Israel.'

Sed et heri et nudiustertius cum esset Saul rex super nos, tu eras educens et reducens Israel: dixit autem Dominus ad te: Tu pasces populum meum Israel, et tu eris dux super Israel.

3 And all the elders of Israel come unto the king, to Hebron, and king David maketh with them a covenant in Hebron before Jehovah, and they anoint David for king over Israel.

Venerunt quoque et seniores Israel ad regem in Hebron, et percussit cum eis rex David fœdus in Hebron coram Domino: unxeruntque David in regem super Israel.

4 A son of thirty years [is] David in his being king; forty years he hath reigned;

Filius triginta annorum erat David, cum regnare cœpisset, et quadraginta annis regnavit.

5 in Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years, over all Israel and Judah.

In Hebron regnavit super Iudam septem annis et sex mensibus: in Ierusalem autem regnavit triginta tribus annis super omnem Israel et Iudam.

6 And the king goeth, and his men, to Jerusalem, unto the Jebusite, the inhabitant of the land, and they speak to David, saying, 'Thou dost not come in hither, except thou turn aside the blind and the lame;' saying, 'David doth not come in hither.'

Et abiit rex, et omnes viri qui erant cum eo, in Ierusalem, ad Iebusæum habitatorem terræ: dictumque est David ab eis: Non ingredieris huc, nisi abstuleris cæcos et claudos dicentes: Non ingredietur David huc.

7 And David captureth the fortress of Zion, it [is] the city of David.

Cepit autem David arcem Sion, hæc est civitas David.

8 And David saith on that day, 'Any one smiting the Jebusite, (let him go up by the watercourse), and the lame and the blind — the hated of David's soul,' — because the blind and lame say, 'He doth not come into the house.'

Proposuerat enim David in die illa præmium, qui percussisset Iebusæum, et tetigisset domatum fistulas, et abstulisset cæcos et claudos odientes animam David. idcirco dicitur in proverbio: Cæcus et claudus non intrabunt in templum.

9 And David dwelleth in the fortress, and calleth it — City of David, and David buildeth round about, from Millo and inward,

Habitavit autem David in arce, et vocavit eam, Civitatem David: et ædificavit per gyrum a Mello et intrinsecus.

10 and David goeth, going on and becoming great, and Jehovah, God of Hosts, [is] with him.

Et ingrediebatur proficiens atque succrescens, et Dominus Deus exercituum erat cum eo.

11 And Hiram king of Tyre sendeth messengers unto David, and cedar-trees, and artificers of wood, and artificers of stone, for walls, and they build a house for David,

Misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri nuncios ad David, et ligna cedrina, et artifices lignorum, artificesque lapidum ad parietes: et ædificaverunt domum David.

12 and David knoweth that Jehovah hath established him for king over Israel, and that He hath lifted up his kingdom, because of His people Israel.

Et cognovit David quoniam confirmasset eum Dominus regem super Israel, et quoniam exaltasset regnum eius super populum suum Israel.

13 And David taketh again concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after his coming from Hebron, and there are born again to David sons and daughters.

Accepit ergo David adhuc concubinas et uxores de Ierusalem, postquam venerat de Hebron: natique sunt David et alii filii et filiæ:

14 And these [are] the names of those born to him in Jerusalem: Shammuah, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,

et hæc nomina eorum, qui nati sunt ei in Ierusalem, Samua, et Sobab, et Nathan, et Salomon,

15 and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

et Iebahar, et Elisua, et Nepheg,

16 and Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphalet.

et Iaphia, et Elisama, et Elioda, et Eliphaleth.

17 And the Philistines hear that they have anointed David for king over Israel, and all the Philistines come up to seek David, and David heareth, and goeth down unto the fortress,

Audierunt ergo Philisthiim quod unxissent David in regem super Israel: et ascenderunt universi ut quærerent David: quod cum audisset David, descendit in præsidium.

18 and the Philistines have come, and are spread out in the valley of Rephaim.

Philisthiim autem venientes diffusi sunt in Valle Raphaim.

19 And David asketh of Jehovah, saying, 'Do I go up unto the Philistines? dost Thou give them into my hand?' And Jehovah saith unto David, 'Go up, for I certainly give the Philistines into thy hand.'

et consuluit David Dominum, dicens: Si ascendam ad Philisthiim? et si dabis eos in manu mea? Et dixit Dominus ad David: Ascende, quia tradens dabo Philisthiim in manu tua.

20 And David cometh in to Baal-Perazim, and David smiteth them there, and saith, 'Jehovah hath broken forth [on] mine enemies before me, as the breaking forth of waters;' therefore he hath called the name of that place Baal-Perazim.

Venit ergo David in Baal Pharasim. et percussit eos ibi, et dixit: Divisit Dominus inimicos meos coram me, sicut dividuntur aquæ. Propterea vocatum est nomen loci illius, Baal Pharasim.

21 And they forsake there their idols, and David and his men lift them up.

Et reliquerunt ibi sculptilia sua: quæ tulit David, et viri eius.

22 And the Philistines add again to come up, and are spread out in the valley of Rephaim,

Et addiderunt adhuc Philisthiim ut ascenderent, et diffusi sunt in Valle Raphaim.

23 and David asketh of Jehovah, and He saith, 'Thou dost not go up, turn round unto their rear, and thou hast come to them over-against the mulberries,

Consuluit autem David Dominum: Si ascendam contra Philisthæos, et tradas eos in manus meas? Qui respondit: Non ascendas contra eos, sed gyra post tergum eorum, et venies ad eos ex adverso pyrorum.

24 and it cometh to pass, in thy hearing the sound of a stepping in the tops of the mulberries, then thou dost move sharply, for then hath Jehovah gone out before thee to smite in the camp of the Philistines.'

Et cum audieris sonitum gradientis in cacumine pyrorum, tunc inibis prælium: quia tunc egredietur Dominus ante faciem tuam, ut percutiat castra Philisthiim.

25 And David doth so, as Jehovah commanded him, and smiteth the Philistines from Geba unto thy coming to Gazer.

Fecit itaque David sicut præceperat ei Dominus, et percussit Philisthiim de Gabaa, usque dum venias Gezer.
