Sie Chronicle 11

1 Mwet Israel nukewa elos som nu yorol David in acn Hebron ac fahk nu sel, “Kut mwet srahm na pwaye ac kut ikwa sefanna.

Then did all Israel gather themselves together to David, unto Hebron, saying, —Lo! thy bone and thy flesh, are we.

2 In pacl somla, finne Saul pa tokosra lasr ah, kom pa kol mwet Israel ke mweun, ac LEUM GOD lom el wuleot nu sum lah kom ac fah leum fin mwet Israel ac karingin kut oana sie mwet shepherd.”

Moreover also, in time past even when Saul was king, thou, wast he that led out and brought in Israel, —and Yahweh thy God said unto thee, Thou, shalt shepherd my people Israel, Yea, thou, shalt be chief ruler, over my people Israel.

3 Ouinge mwet kol nukewa lun Israel elos tuku nu yorol David in acn Hebron. David el orala sie wulela na ku yorolos, ac elos mosrwella tuh elan tokosra lun Israel, oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh wulela kac in kas lal Samuel.

Thus came all the elders of Israel unto the king, to Hebron, and David solemnised to them a covenant in Hebron, before Yahweh, —and they anointed David to be king over Israel, according to the word of Yahweh, through Samuel.

4 Tokosra David ac mwet Israel nukewa elos utyak nu Jerusalem ac mweuni siti sac. In pacl se ingo inen siti sac pa Jebus, ac mwet na pwaye lun an we — mwet Jebus — elos srakna muta we.

Then went David and all Israel to Jerusalem, the same, was Jebus, —where were the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land.

5 Mwet Jebus elos tuh fahk nu sel David mu el ac tiana ku in utyak nu in siti sac. Tusruktu David el sruokya pot ku lalos Zion, na mutawauk in pangpang acn sac “Siti sel David.”

And the inhabitants of Jebus said unto David, Thou shalt not come in hither, —But David captured the citadel of Zion, the same, is the city of David.

6 David el fahk, “Mwet se emeet su uniya sie mwet Jebus, el ac fah captain lun un mwet mweun!” Na Joab, su nina kial pa Zeruiah, el pa fahsryak emeet in mweun, ouinge el pa captain lun un mwet mweun lal David.

And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites, first, shall become a chief, and a ruler, —So then Joab son of Zeruiah, went up first, and became a chief.

7 Ke sripen David el som muta ke pot sac, acn sac tufah pangpang “Siti sel David.”

And David dwelt in the citadel, —for this cause, did they call it, The City of David.

8 David el sifil musaela siti sac, mutawauk ke acn se ma koaneyukla layen kutulap in eol soko we. Ac Joab el aksasuye acn lula ke siti sac.

And he built the city round about, from Millo even as far as the circuit, —but, Joab, suffered the remainder of the city to live.

9 David el kapkapak ac kui, mweyen LEUM GOD Kulana El welul.

Thus did David wax greater and yet greater, —and, Yahweh of Hosts, was with him.

10 Inen mwet mweun pwengpeng lal David pa takinyukla inge. U se inge, weang mwet Israel nukewa saya, elos kasrel David tuh elan tokosrala in oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh wulela, ac elos oru tuh tokosrai lal in ku na.

Now, these, are the chiefs of the heroes, that pertained to David, who held strongly with him in his kingdom, with all Israel, to make him king, —according to the word of Yahweh, concerning Israel.

11 Mwet se meet an pa Jashobeam, ke sou lulap lal Hachmon. El mwet kol lun u se pangpang “Mwet Tolu” ah. El anwukkin osra natul lain mwet tolfoko, ac uniya nufon ke mweun sefanna.

And, this, is the number of the heroes who pertained to David, —Jashobeam son of a Hachmonite, chief of the thirty, the same, brandished his spear over three hundred—slain at one time.

12 Mwet se akluo sin mwet pwengpeng tolu inge pa Eleazar, wen natul Dodo in sou lal Ahoh.

And, after him, was Eleazar son of Dodai, the Ahohite, —he, was among the three heroes;

13 El welul David mweun lain mwet Philistia ke mweun se in Pas Dammim. El tuh muta in ima in barley se ke mwet Israel elos mutawauk in kaing.

he, was with David in Pas-dammim, where, the Philistines, were gathered together to battle, and there was a field-plot full of barley, —and, the people, fled, from before the Philistines;

14 Eleazar ac mwet lal elos tiana kaing, a elos tu na infulwen ima sac ac mweun lain mwet Philistia. LEUM GOD El sang kutangla na yohk se nu sel.

so they took their stand in the midst of the plot and rescued it, and smote the Philistines, —and Yahweh wrought a great victory.

15 Sie len ah, tolu sin mwet mweun pwengpeng tolngoul som nu ke acn se David el muta we sisken sie eot ma apkuran nu ke Luf Adullam. In pacl sac pacna oasr un mwet Philistia mutangan aktuktuk ke Infahlfal Rephaim.

And three of the thirty chiefs went down upon the rock, unto David, into the cave of Adullam, —a host of Philistines, being encamped in the vale of Rephaim.

16 Ke pacl se ingan, David el muta ke sie tohktok ma kuhlusyukyak, ac sie pac un mwet Philistia elos sruokya acn Bethlehem ac muta we.

Now, David, then was in the stronghold, —and, a garrison of Philistines, then was in Bethlehem.

17 David el srounfusryak ac fahk, “Nga ke sie mwet in use kutu kof ah nimuk ke lufin kof se ke mutunpot Bethlehem!”

And David longed, and said—Who will give me to drink of the water, out of the well of Bethlehem, that is within the gate?

18 Mwet mweun pwengpeng tolu ah elos fokoko na sifacna utyak sasla nien aktuktuk lun mwet Philistia, na utia kof ke lufin kof sac ac usla nu yorol David. Tusruktu el tiana nimya, a el okoala nu infohk uh tuh in mwe kisa nu sin LEUM GOD.

And the three brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was within the gate, and bare it, and brought it in unto David, —yet would not David drink it, but poured it out unto Yahweh;

19 El fahk, “Nga koflana nim kof se inge, mweyen ac oana ngan nim srahn mwet su pilesrala moul lalos inge!” Ouinge el srangesr nim. Na pa ingan orekma pulaik lun mwet mweun pwengpeng tolu ah.

and said—Far be it from me, of my God, that I should do this! The blood of these men, shall I drink, with their lives? For, with their lives, have they brought it! So he would not drink it. These things, did the three heroes.

20 Abishai, tamulel lal Joab, el pa mwet kol lun u se pangpang “Mwet Pwengpeng Tolngoul.” El anwukkin osra natul in lain mwet tolfoko, ac el onelosi nufon. Na el mutawauk in pwengpeng inmasrlon “Mwet Tolngoul” ah.

And, Abishai brother of Joab—he, was the chief of three, he, having brandished his spear against three hundred—who were slain, —and so, he, had a name among three.

21 El pa pwengpeng emeet sin “Mwet Tolngoul” ah, ac el mwet kol lac lalos, tusruktu el tia arulana pwengpeng oana “Mwet Tolu” ah.

Of the three in the second rank, was he honourable, therefore became he their captain, —though, unto the [first] three, did he not attain.

22 Benaiah, wen natul Jehoiada mwet Kabzeel, el sie mwet mweun pwengpeng, ac el oru ma watwen pus. Sie pacl ah el uniya mwet mweun na ku luo lun mwet Moab. Oayapa sie len ma yohk snow ah, el tufoki nu in luf se ac uniya lion soko.

Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, son of a man of valour, hero of many a deed, from Kabziel—he, smote the two [sons] of Ariel of Moab, he, also went down and smote a lion in the midst of a pit, in time of snow;

23 El oayapa uniya mukul Egypt se — sie mwet yohk pisa ac fit itkosr tafu fulatal, ac el sruokya osra na lulap soko. Benaiah el lainul ke sikal soko. El tulakunla osra soko liki poun mwet Egypt sac, ac sang unilya.

he, also smote an Egyptian, a man of [great] stature, five cubits, and, in the hand of the Egyptian, was a spear like a weaver’s beam, so he went down unto him with a staff, —and wrested the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slew him with his spear.

24 Pa ingan kutu ma watwen Benaiah el oru, su sie sin “Mwet Tolngoul” ah.

These things, did Benaiah son of Jehoiada, so, he, had a name among three heroes.

25 El pisrla inmasrlon “Mwet Tolngoul” ah, tusruktu el tia pwengpeng oana “Mwet Tolu” ah. Na David el sang tuh Benaiah elan mwet kol fin mwet mweun karinginyal sifacna.

Among the thirty, lo! honourable, was he, but, unto the [first] three, did he not attain, —howbeit David set him over his council.
