1 Istwa 14

1 Alò Hiram, wa Tyr a, te voye mesaje yo kote David avèk bwa sèd yo, mason ak chapant pou bati yon kay pou li.

And Huram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and masons, and carpenters, to build him a house.

2 Epi David te vin rekonèt ke SENYÈ a te etabli li kon wa sou Israël, epi ke wayòm li te a egzalte byen wo pou koz pèp li a, Israël.

And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, for his kingdom was exalted exceedingly, for His people Israel's sake.

3 David te pran plis madanm Jérusalem, e David te vin papa a plis fis ak fi.

And David took more wives at Jerusalem; and David begot more sons and daughters.

4 Sila yo se non a pitit ki ne a li menm Jérusalem yo: Schammau, Schobab, Nathan, Salomon,

And these are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon;

5 Jibhar, Élischua, Elphéleth,

and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet;

6 Noga, Népheg, Japhia,

and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia;

7 Élischama, Beéliada ak Éliphéleth.

and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

8 Lè Filisten yo te tande ke David te onksyone wa sou tout Israël, tout Filisten yo te monte pou rankontre David. Lè David te tande sa li te sòti kont yo.

And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went out to meet them.

9 Alò, Filisten yo te vini e te fè yon atak nan vale Rephaïm nan.

Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim.

10 David te mande Bondye, epi te di: “Èske mwen dwe monte kont Filisten yo? Èske Ou va livre yo nan men m?” SENYÈ a te di li: “Monte, paske Mwen va livre yo nan men ou.”

And David inquired of God, saying: 'Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt Thou deliver them into my hand?' And the LORD said unto him: 'Go up; for I will deliver them into thy hand.'

11 Konsa, yo te rive monte Baal-Peratsim, e David te bat yo la. David te di: “Bondye te kraze lènmi mwen yo pa men mwen kon dlo k ap pete.” Pou sa, yo te rele plas sa a Baal-Peratsim.

So they came up to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and David said: 'God hath broken mine enemies by my hand, like the breach of waters.' Therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.

12 Yo te abandone dye pa yo la. David te bay lòd pou yo te brile yo avèk dife.

And they left their gods there; and David gave commandment, and they were burned with fire.

13 Filisten yo te fè yon lòt atak nan vale a.

And the Philistines yet again made a raid in the valley.

14 David te mande a Bondye ankò e Bondye te di li: “Ou pa pou monte kont yo. Ansèkle yo pa dèyè e vini sou yo devan pye balzam yo.

And David inquired again of God; and God said unto him: 'Thou shalt not go up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees.

15 Li va vin rive ke lè ou tande son mache a nan tèt pye balzam yo, alò, ou va sòti nan batay la; paske Bondye va gen tan sòti devan ou pou frape lame Filisten yo.”

And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle; for God is gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.'

16 David te fè menm sa ke Bondye te kòmande li. Yo te frape desann lame Filisten yo soti Gabaon jis rive menm nan Guézer.

And David did as God commanded him; and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.

17 Rekonesans a David te sòti rive nan tout peyi yo, epi SENYÈ a te mennen lakrent li sou tout nasyon yo.

And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.
