1 דִּבְרֵי הַיָּמִים 11
| וַיִּקָּבְצ֧וּ כָֽל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל אֶל־דָּוִ֖יד חֶבְרֹ֣ונָה לֵאמֹ֑ר הִנֵּ֛ה עַצְמְךָ֥ וּֽבְשָׂרְךָ֖ אֲנָֽחְנוּ׃ | 1 |
Then all Israel gathered together to David at Hebron, saying, "Look, we are your bone and your flesh.
| גַּם־תְּמֹ֣ול גַּם־שִׁלְשֹׁ֗ום גַּ֚ם בִּהְיֹ֣ות שָׁא֣וּל מֶ֔לֶךְ אַתָּ֛ה הַמֹּוצִ֥יא וְהַמֵּבִ֖יא אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיֹּאמֶר֩ יְהוָ֨ה אֱלֹהֶ֜יךָ לְךָ֗ אַתָּ֨ה תִרְעֶ֤ה אֶת־עַמִּי֙ אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וְאַתָּה֙ תִּהְיֶ֣ה נָגִ֔יד עַ֖ל עַמִּ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ | 2 |
In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. Jehovah your God said to you, 'You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall rule over my people Israel.'"
| וַ֠יָּבֹאוּ כָּל־זִקְנֵ֨י יִשְׂרָאֵ֤ל אֶל־הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ חֶבְרֹ֔ונָה וַיִּכְרֹת֩ לָהֶ֨ם דָּוִ֥יד בְּרִ֛ית בְּחֶבְרֹ֖ון לִפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה וַיִּמְשְׁח֨וּ אֶת־דָּוִ֤יד לְמֶ֙לֶךְ֙ עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל כִּדְבַ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה בְּיַד־שְׁמוּאֵֽל׃ ס | 3 |
So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Jehovah; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of Jehovah by Samuel.
| וַיֵּ֨לֶךְ דָּוִ֧יד וְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֛ל יְרוּשָׁלַ֖͏ִם הִ֣יא יְב֑וּס וְשָׁם֙ הַיְבוּסִ֔י יֹשְׁבֵ֖י הָאָֽרֶץ׃ | 4 |
David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (that is, Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
| וַיֹּ֨אמְר֜וּ יֹשְׁבֵ֤י יְבוּס֙ לְדָוִ֔יד לֹ֥א תָבֹ֖וא הֵ֑נָּה וַיִּלְכֹּ֤ד דָּוִיד֙ אֶת־מְצֻדַ֣ת צִיֹּ֔ון הִ֖יא עִ֥יר דָּוִֽיד׃ | 5 |
The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, "You shall not come in here." Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion, that is, the City of David.
| וַיֹּ֣אמֶר דָּוִ֔יד כָּל־מַכֵּ֤ה יְבוּסִי֙ בָּרִ֣אשֹׁונָ֔ה יִהְיֶ֥ה לְרֹ֖אשׁ וּלְשָׂ֑ר וַיַּ֧עַל בָּרִאשֹׁונָ֛ה יֹואָ֥ב בֶּן־צְרוּיָ֖ה וַיְהִ֥י לְרֹֽאשׁ׃ | 6 |
David said, "Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain." Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
| וַיֵּ֥שֶׁב דָּוִ֖יד בַּמְצָ֑ד עַל־כֵּ֥ן קָרְאוּ־לֹ֖ו עִ֥יר דָּוִֽיד׃ | 7 |
David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it the City of David.
| וַיִּ֤בֶן הָעִיר֙ מִסָּבִ֔יב מִן־הַמִּלֹּ֖וא וְעַד־הַסָּבִ֑יב וְיֹואָ֕ב יְחַיֶּ֖ה אֶת־שְׁאָ֥ר הָעִֽיר׃ | 8 |
He built the city all around, from the Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
| וַיֵּ֥לֶךְ דָּוִ֖יד הָלֹ֣וךְ וְגָדֹ֑ול וַיהוָ֥ה צְבָאֹ֖ות עִמֹּֽו׃ פ | 9 |
David grew greater and greater; for Jehovah of hosts was with him.
| וְאֵ֨לֶּה רָאשֵׁ֤י הַגִּבֹּורִים֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לְדָוִ֔יד הַמִּתְחַזְּקִ֨ים עִמֹּ֧ו בְמַלְכוּתֹ֛ו עִם־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לְהַמְלִיכֹ֑ו כִּדְבַ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ ס | 10 |
Now these are the chief of the warriors whom David had, who gave him strong support in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of Jehovah concerning Israel.
| וְאֵ֛לֶּה מִסְפַּ֥ר הַגִּבֹּרִ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֣ר לְדָוִ֑יד יָשָׁבְעָ֣ם בֶּן־חַכְמֹונִ֗י רֹ֚אשׁ הַשְּׁלֹושִׁים (הַשָּׁ֣לִישִׁ֔ים) הֽוּא־עֹורֵ֧ר אֶת־חֲנִיתֹ֛ו עַל־שְׁלֹשׁ־מֵאֹ֥ות חָלָ֖ל בְּפַ֥עַם אֶחָֽת׃ | 11 |
This is the number of the warriors whom David had: Jeshbaal the son of Hachmoni, leader of the Three. And he wielded his spear against eight hundred and killed them at one time.
| וְאַחֲרָ֛יו אֶלְעָזָ֥ר בֶּן־דֹּודֹ֖ו הָאֲחֹוחִ֑י ה֖וּא בִּשְׁלֹושָׁ֥ה הַגִּבֹּרִֽים׃ | 12 |
After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the Three warriors.
| הֽוּא־הָיָ֨ה עִם־דָּוִ֜יד בַּפַּ֣ס דַּמִּ֗ים וְהַפְּלִשְׁתִּים֙ נֶאֱסְפוּ־שָׁ֣ם לַמִּלְחָמָ֔ה וַתְּהִ֛י חֶלְקַ֥ת הַשָּׂדֶ֖ה מְלֵאָ֣ה שְׂעֹורִ֑ים וְהָעָ֥ם נָ֖סוּ מִפְּנֵ֥י פְלִשְׁתִּֽים׃ | 13 |
He was with David at Pas Dammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
| וַיִּֽתְיַצְּב֤וּ בְתֹוךְ־הַחֶלְקָה֙ וַיַּצִּיל֔וּהָ וַיַּכּ֖וּ אֶת־פְּלִשְׁתִּ֑ים וַיֹּ֥ושַׁע יְהוָ֖ה תְּשׁוּעָ֥ה גְדֹולָֽה׃ | 14 |
And he took his stand in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and killed the Philistines; and Jehovah saved them by a great victory.
| וַיֵּרְד֡וּ שְֽׁלֹושָׁה֩ מִן־הַשְּׁלֹושִׁ֨ים רֹ֤אשׁ עַל־הַצֻּר֙ אֶל־דָּוִ֔יד אֶל־מְעָרַ֖ת עֲדֻלָּ֑ם וּמַחֲנֵ֣ה פְלִשְׁתִּ֔ים חֹנָ֖ה בְּעֵ֥מֶק רְפָאִֽים׃ | 15 |
And three of the Thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines were camped in the Valley of Rephaim.
| וְדָוִ֖יד אָ֣ז בַּמְּצוּדָ֑ה וּנְצִ֣יב פְּלִשְׁתִּ֔ים אָ֖ז בְּבֵ֥ית לָֽחֶם׃ | 16 |
David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem.
| וַיִּתְאָו (וַיִּתְאָ֥יו) דָּוִ֖יד וַיֹּאמַ֑ר מִ֚י יַשְׁקֵ֣נִי מַ֔יִם מִבֹּ֥ור בֵּֽית־לֶ֖חֶם אֲשֶׁ֥ר בַּשָּֽׁעַר׃ | 17 |
And David had a craving and said, "Oh that one would give me water to drink of the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate."
| וַיִּבְקְע֨וּ הַשְּׁלֹשָׁ֜ה בְּמַחֲנֵ֣ה פְלִשְׁתִּ֗ים וַיִּֽשְׁאֲבוּ־מַ֙יִם֙ מִבֹּ֤ור בֵּֽית־לֶ֙חֶם֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר בַּשַּׁ֔עַר וַיִּשְׂא֖וּ וַיָּבִ֣אוּ אֶל־דָּוִ֑יד וְלֹֽא־אָבָ֤ה דָוִיד֙ לִשְׁתֹּותָ֔ם וַיְנַסֵּ֥ךְ אֹתָ֖ם לַיהוָֽה׃ | 18 |
The Three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but David would not drink of it, but poured it out to Jehovah,
| וַיֹּ֡אמֶר חָלִילָה֩ לִּ֨י מֵאֱלֹהַ֜י מֵעֲשֹׂ֣ות זֹ֗את הֲדַ֣ם הָאֲנָשִׁים֩ הָאֵ֨לֶּה אֶשְׁתֶּ֤ה בְנַפְשֹׁותָם֙ כִּ֣י בְנַפְשֹׁותָ֣ם הֱבִיא֔וּם וְלֹ֥א אָבָ֖ה לִשְׁתֹּותָ֑ם אֵ֣לֶּה עָשׂ֔וּ שְׁלֹ֖שֶׁת הַגִּבֹּורִֽים׃ | 19 |
and said, "My God forbid it me, that I should do this. Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy?" For they risked their lives to bring it. Therefore he would not drink it. The Three warriors did these things.
| וְאַבְשַׁ֣י אֲחִֽי־יֹואָ֗ב ה֚וּא הָיָה֙ רֹ֣אשׁ הַשְּׁלֹושָׁ֔ה וְהוּא֙ עֹורֵ֣ר אֶת־חֲנִיתֹ֔ו עַל־שְׁלֹ֥שׁ מֵאֹ֖ות חָלָ֑ל וְלֹא־ (וְלֹו)־שֵׁ֖ם בַּשְּׁלֹושָֽׁה׃ | 20 |
And Abishai, the brother of Joab, was leader of the Thirty. And he wielded his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name beside the Three.
| מִן־הַשְּׁלֹושָׁ֤ה בַשְּׁנַ֙יִם֙ נִכְבָּ֔ד וַיְהִ֥י לָהֶ֖ם לְשָׂ֑ר וְעַד־הַשְּׁלֹושָׁ֖ה לֹֽא־בָֽא׃ ס | 21 |
He was the most illustrious of the Thirty, and he became their leader. However, he did not attain to the Three.
| בְּנָיָ֨ה בֶן־יְהֹויָדָ֧ע בֶּן־אִֽישׁ־חַ֛יִל רַב־פְּעָלִ֖ים מִֽן־קַבְצְאֵ֑ל ה֣וּא הִכָּ֗ה אֵ֣ת שְׁנֵ֤י אֲרִיאֵל֙ מֹואָ֔ב וְ֠הוּא יָרַ֞ד וְהִכָּ֧ה אֶֽת־הָאֲרִ֛י בְּתֹ֥וךְ הַבֹּ֖ור בְּיֹ֥ום הַשָּֽׁלֶג׃ | 22 |
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was a valiant man of Kabzeel, who performed great deeds. He killed the two of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow.
| וְהֽוּא־הִכָּה֩ אֶת־הָאִ֨ישׁ הַמִּצְרִ֜י אִ֥ישׁ מִדָּ֣ה ׀ חָמֵ֣שׁ בָּאַמָּ֗ה וּבְיַ֨ד הַמִּצְרִ֤י חֲנִית֙ כִּמְנֹ֣ור אֹרְגִ֔ים וַיֵּ֥רֶד אֵלָ֖יו בַּשָּׁ֑בֶט וַיִּגְזֹ֤ל אֶֽת־הַחֲנִית֙ מִיַּ֣ד הַמִּצְרִ֔י וַיַּהַרְגֵ֖הוּ בַּחֲנִיתֹֽו׃ | 23 |
He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, seven feet five inches tall; and in the Egyptian's hand was a spear like a weaver's beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and grabbed the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear.
| אֵ֣לֶּה עָשָׂ֔ה בְּנָיָ֖הוּ בֶּן־יְהֹויָדָ֑ע וְלֹו־שֵׁ֖ם בִּשְׁלֹושָׁ֥ה הַגִּבֹּרִֽים׃ | 24 |
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things, and had a name among the Three warriors.
| מִן־הַשְּׁלֹושִׁ֗ים הִנֹּ֤ו נִכְבָּד֙ ה֔וּא וְאֶל־הַשְּׁלֹושָׁ֖ה לֹא־בָ֑א וַיְשִׂימֵ֥הוּ דָוִ֖יד עַל־מִשְׁמַעְתֹּֽו׃ ס | 25 |
Look, he was more honored than the Thirty, but he did not attain to the Three. And David set him over his guard.
| וְגִבֹּורֵ֖י הַחֲיָלִ֑ים עֲשָׂה־אֵל֙ אֲחִ֣י יֹואָ֔ב אֶלְחָנָ֥ן בֶּן־דֹּודֹ֖ו מִבֵּ֥ית לָֽחֶם׃ ס | 26 |
