II Samuel 5
1 Ket dimmatag dagiti amin a tribu ti Israel kenni David idiay Hebron ket kinunada, “Kitaem, dakami ti lasagmo ken tulangmo.
All the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and told him, “We are your flesh and blood.
2 Iti napalabas, idi ni Saul ti agar-ari kadatayo, sika ti nangidaulo ti armada ti Israelita. Kinuna ni Yahweh kenka, 'Ipastormonto dagiti tattaok nga Israel, ket agturaykanto iti entero nga Israel.'”
Previously when Saul was our king, you were the one who led the Israelite army into battle. The Lord told you, ‘You will be the shepherd of my people Israel, and you will be their ruler.’”
3 Dimmatag ngarud dagiti amin a panglakayen ti Israel iti ari idiay Hebron, ken nakitulag ni Ari David kadakuada iti sangoanan ni Yahweh. Pinulotanda ni David nga ari ti Israel.
All the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where King David made an agreement with them in the Lord's presence. Then they anointed him king of Israel.
4 Agtawen ni David iti 30 idi mangrugi isuna nga agturay, ket nagturay isuna iti 40 a tawen.
David was thirty when he became king, and he reigned for forty years.
5 Idiay Hebron, nagturay isuna iti entero a Judah iti pito a tawen ken innem a bulan, ket nagturay isuna idiay Jerusalem iti 33 a tawen iti entero nga Israel ken Juda.
He reigned over Judah seven years and six months from Hebron, and he reigned over all of Israel and Judah for thirty-three years from Jerusalem.
6 Napan ti ari agraman dagiti buyotna idiay Jerusalem a maibusor kadagiti Jebuseo, nga agnanaed iti daga. Kinunada kenni David, “Saanka a makadap-aw ditoy ta uray dagiti bulag ken pilay ket pagsubliendaka. Saan a makaumay ditoy ni David.”
David the king and his men went to Jerusalem to attack the Jebusites who were living there. The Jebusites told David: “You'll never enter here. Even the blind and lame could stop you.” They were convinced that David could not get in.
7 Nupay kasta, naagaw ni David ti sarikedked ti Sion, a siudad ita ni David.
But David did capture the fortress of Zion, now known as the City of David.
8 Iti dayta a tiempo, kinuna ni David, “Siasinoman dagiti mangraut kadagiti Jebuseo ket masapul a magna iti paggapgapuan ti danum sadanto madanun dagiti 'pilay ken bulag,' a manggurgura kenni David.” Isu nga ibagbaga dagiti tattao, “Saan a makadap-aw iti palasio 'dagiti bulag ken pilay'.”
At that time he said, “If we are to successfully conquer the Jebusites we'll have to go up the water shaft to attack these ‘lame and blind’ —these people who hate David. This is why it's said, ‘The blind and the lame will never enter the house.’”
9 Nagnaed ngarud ni David iti sarikedked ken naawagan daytoy iti siudad ni David. Pinalawana daytoy, manipud iti terasa nga agpauneg.
David went and lived in the fortress, and named it the City of David. He extended it in all directions, starting from the outer supporting terraces and moving inwards.
10 Bimmileg unay ni David gapu ta kaduana ni Yahweh, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin.
David became increasingly powerful, for the Lord God Almighty was with him.
11 Ket nangipatulod ni Hiram nga ari ti Tiro kadagiti mensahero kenni David, ken kadagiti kayo ti sedro, ken kadagiti karpentero, ken kadagiti kumakabite. Nangibangonda iti balay a para kenni David.
King Hiram of Tyre sent representatives to David, together with cedar timber, carpenters, and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.
12 Ammon ni David nga insaad isuna ni Yahweh a kas ari ti entero nga Israel, ken intag-ayna ti pagarianna para iti pagsayaatan dagiti tattaona nga Israel.
David realized that the Lord had installed him as king of Israel, and had made his kingdom great for the sake of his people Israel.
13 Idi nakapanaw ni David idiay Hebron ket napan iti Jerusalem, nangala isuna kadagiti ad-adu pay nga ikabbalayna a babbai ken assawa idiay Jerusalem, ket ad-addu pay ti naipasngay a putotna a lallaki ken babbai.
After he moved from Hebron, David added more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, and he had more sons and daughters.
14 Dagitoy dagiti nagan dagiti putotna a naipasngay idiay Jerusalem: Summua, Sobab, Natan, Solomon,
These are the names of his children born in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
15 Ibhar, Elisua, Nefeg, Jafia,
Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
16 Elisama, Eliada ken ni Elifelet.
Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
17 Ket, idi nangngeg dagiti Filisteo a napulotan a kas ari ni David iti Israel, napanda amin tapno sapulenda isuna. Ngem nangngeg ni David ti maipanggep iti daytoy ket bimmaba isuna a nagkamang iti sarikedked.
When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king of Israel, the whole Philistine army came out to capture him, but David found out and went inside the stronghold.
18 Ita, simmangpet dagiti Filisteo ket nagwarasda iti Tanap ti Refaim.
The Philistines came and spread out across the Valley of Rephaim.
19 Dimmawat ngarud ni David iti tulong ni Yahweh. Kinunana, “Rumbeng kadi a rautek dagiti Filisteo? Pagballigiennak kadi manipud kadakuada?” Kinuna ni Yahweh kenni David, “Rautem ida, ta awan duadua a pagballigienka maibusor kadagiti Filisteo.”
David asked the Lord “Should I go and attack the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?” “Yes, go,” the Lord replied, “for I will definitely hand them over to you.”
20 Rimmaut ngarud ni David idiay Baal Perazim, ket pinarmekna ida sadiay. Kinunana, “Winarawara ni Yahweh dagiti kabusorko iti sangoanak a kasla naisawang a layus ti danum.” Isu a nagbalin a Baal Perazim ti nagan dayta a lugar.
David went to Baal-perazim and he defeated the Philistines there. “Like a flood that bursts out, so the Lord has burst out against my enemies right before me,” David declared. So he named that place Baal-perazim.
21 Pinanawan dagiti Filisteo dagiti didiosenda sadiay, ket inyawid ni David ken dagiti soldadona dagitoy.
The Philistines left their idols behind, and David and his men removed them.
22 Ket simmang-at manen dagiti Filisteo ket nagwarasda pay iti maminsan pay iti Tanap ti Refaim.
A while later the Philistines came again and spread out across the Valley of Rephaim.
23 Isu a dinawat manen ni David ti tulong ni Yahweh, ket kinuna ni Yahweh kenkuana, “Masapul a saanmo a rauten isuda iti sangonsango, ngem ketdi manglikawka iti likudanda samunto rauten ida babaen kadagiti balsam a kaykayo.
David asked the Lord what to do. The Lord replied, “Don't attack them directly, but go round behind them and attack them in front of the balsam trees.
24 Inton mangegmo dagiti arimpadekda a maipalpalayupoy kadagiti murdong dagiti balsam a kaykayo, rautem ngarud ida nga addaan iti pigsa. Aramidem daytoy gapu ta umun-una ni Yahweh kenka a mangraut iti armada ti Filisteo.”
Immediately you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees be ready, because this means the Lord has marched out before you to attack the Philistine camp.”
25 Tinungpal ngarud ni David kas imbilin ni Yahweh kenkuana. Pinapatayna dagiti Filisteo manipud Gabaa agingga idiay Gezer.
David followed the Lord's orders, and he slaughtered the Philistines from Geba all the way to Gezer.
