1 Misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri nuncios ad David, et ligna cedrina, et artifices parietum, lignorumque: ut aedificarent ei domum.

Then sent Hiram the King of Tyrus messengers to Dauid, and cedar trees, with masons and carpenters to builde him an house.

2 Cognovitque David eo quod confirmasset eum Dominus in regem super Israel, et sublevatum est regnum suum super populum eius Israel.

Therefore Dauid knewe that the Lord had confirmed him King ouer Israel, and that his kingdome was lift vp on hie, because of his people Israel.

3 Accepit quoque David alias uxores in Ierusalem: genuitque filios, et filias.

8 Audientes autem Philisthiim eo quod unctus esset David regem super universum Israel, ascenderunt omnes ut quaererent eum: quod cum audisset David, egressus est obviam eis.

But when the Philistims heard that Dauid was anointed King ouer Israel, all the Philistims came vp to seeke Dauid. And when Dauid heard, he went out against them.

9 Porro Philisthiim venientes, diffusi sunt in Valle Raphaim.

And the Philistims came, and spred them selues in the valley of Rephaim.

10 Consuluitque David Dominum, dicens: Si ascendam ad Philisthaeos, et si trades eos in manu mea? Et dixit ei Dominus: Ascende, et tradam eos in manu tua.

Then Dauid asked counsel at God, saying, Shall I goe vp against the Philistims, and wilt thou deliuer them into mine hande? And the Lord saide vnto him, Goe vp: for I will deliuer them into thine hande.

11 Cumque illi ascendissent in Baalpharasim, percussit eos ibi David, et dixit: Divisit Deus inimicos meos per manum meam, sicut dividuntur aquae: et idcirco vocatum est nomen illius loci Baalpharasim.

So they came vp to Baal-perazim, and Dauid smote them there: and Dauid said, God hath deuided mine enemies with mine hande, as waters are deuided: therefore they called the name of that place, Baal-perazim.

12 Dereliqueruntque ibi deos suos, quos David iussit exuri.

And there they had left their gods: and Dauid said, Let them euen be burnt with fire.

13 Alia etiam vice Philisthiim irruerunt, et diffusi sunt in valle.

Againe the Philistims came and spread them selues in the valley.

14 Consuluitque rursum David Deum, et dixit ei Deus: Non ascendas post eos, recede ab eis, et venies contra illos ex adverso pyrorum.

And when Dauid asked againe counsell at God, God said to him, Thou shalt not goe vp after them, but turne away from them, that thou mayest come vpon them ouer against the mulberie trees.

15 Cumque audieris sonitum gradientis in cacumine pyrorum, tunc egredieris ad bellum. Egressus est enim Deus ante te, ut percutiat castra Philisthiim.

And when thou hearest the noyse of one going in the toppes of the mulberie trees, then goe out to battel: for God is gone foorth before thee, to smite the hoste of the Philistims.

16 Fecit ergo David sicut praeceperat ei Deus, et percussit castra Philisthinorum, de Gabaon usque Gazera.

So Dauid did as God had commanded him: and they smote the hoste of the Philistims from Gibeon euen to Gezer.

17 Divulgatumque est nomen David in universis regionibus, et Dominus dedit pavorem eius super omnes gentes.

And the fame of Dauid went out into all landes, and the Lord brought the feare of him vpon all nations.
