1 Tantara 11
1 Ary dia nivory teo amin’ i Davida tao Hebrona ny Isiraely rehetra ka nanao hoe: Indreto izahay, fa taolanao sy nonao.
Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
2 Hatry ny fahiny ihany koa, fony Saoly mbola nanjaka aza, dia ianao ihany no mpitarika ny Isiraely nivoaka sy niditra; ary hoy Jehovah Andriamanitrao taminao; Hianao no ho mpiandry ny Isiraely oloko, ary ianao no ho mpanapaka azy.
In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. The LORD your God said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over my people Israel.’”
3 Eny, tonga tao amin’ ny mpanjaka tao Hebrona ny loholon’ ny Isiraely rehetra; ary Davida nanao fanekena taminy tao Hebrona teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah; ary dia nanosotra an’ i Davida ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izy araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay nampilazainy an’ i Samoela.
So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD. They anointed David king over Israel, according to the LORD’s word by Samuel.
4 Ary Davida sy ny Isiraely rehetra nankany Jerosalema (Jebosa izany); ary tao ny Jebosita tompon-tany.
David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (also called Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
5 Ary hoy ny mponina tao Jebosa tamin’ i Davida: Tsy ho tafiditra eto ianao. Kanjo afak’ i Davida ihany ny batery fiarovana, dia Ziona (Tanànan’ i Davida izany).
The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You will not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. The same is David’s city.
6 Ary hoy Davida: Na iza na iza no hamely voalohany ny Jebosita, dia izy no ho lohany sy ho komandy. Ary Joaba, zanak’ i Zeroia, no niakatra voalohany, ka dia izy no lohany.
David had said, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
7 Dia nitoetra tao anatin’ ny batery fiarotana Davida, ka izany no nanaovana ny anarany hoe Tanànan’ i Davida
David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it David’s city.
8 Ary nandrafitra ny manodidina ny tanàna hatrany Milo izy; ary Joaba nampamboatra ny sisa tamin’ ny tanàna.
He built the city all around, from Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9 Koa dia nandroso nihalehibe Davida; fa Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no nomba azy.
David grew greater and greater, for the LORD of Armies was with him.
10 Ary izao no lohan’ ny lehilahy maherin’ i Davida izay nifikitra mafy taminy tamin’ ny fanjakany, mbamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra hampanjaka azy araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah ny amin’ ny Isiraely.
Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the LORD’s word concerning Israel.
11 Dia izao no isan’ ny lehilahy maherin’ i Davida: Jasobeama, zanak’ i Hakmony, lehiben’ ny mpanafika malaza; izy no namely telon-jato lahy tamin’ ny lefona ka naharingana azy tamin’ ny ady indray mandeha monja.
This is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.
12 Ary ny manarakaraka azy dia Eleazara, zanak’ i Dodo Ahohita, anankiray amin’ izy telo lahy mahery.
After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.
13 Izy dia teo amin’ i Davida tao Efesa-damima, raha vory teo ny Filistina hiady, ary ny tany nisy vary hordea maniry, ary ny olona nandositra ny Filistina.
He was with David at Pasdammim, 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.
14 Fa nijanona teo afovoan’ io tany io kosa Eleazara ka nahazo io ary namono ny Filistina, ka dia nanao famonjena lehibe Jehovah.
They stood in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and the LORD saved them by a great victory.
15 Ary nisy telo lahy malaza tamin’ ny telo-polo nidina nankeo amin’ ny vatolampy ho any amin’ i Davida tamin’ ny zohin’ i Adolama; ary ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina nitoby tao amin’ ny Lohasahan’ ny Refaïta.
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 encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
16 Ary Davida dia tao amin’ ny batery fiarovana tamin’ izay, ary ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina kosa dia tao Betlehema.
David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem at that time.
17 Ary Davida naniry ka nanao hoe: Enga anie ka hisy hampisotro rano ahy avy amin’ ny fantsakana ao Betlehema, ilay ao akaikin’ ny vavahady.
David longed, and said, “Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”
18 Ary izy telo lahy ireo namaky teo amin’ ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina ka nanovo rano tao amin’ ny fantsakana tao Betlehema, ilay tao akaikin’ ny vavahady, dia nentiny ho any amin’ i Davida. Kanjo tsy nety nisotro izy, fa naidiny ho an’ i Jehovah.
The three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, took it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink any of it, but poured it out to the LORD,
19 Fa hoy izy: Sanatria amiko eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra raha hanao izany; hisotro ny ran’ ireto olona nanao vi-very ny ainy ireto va aho? fa nanao vi-very ny ainy izy ireo tamin’ ny nakany ity. Ka dia tsy nety nisotro izy. Izany zavatra izany no nataon’ ireo telo lahy mahery ireo.
and said, “My God forbid 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 mighty men did these things.
20 Ary Abisay, rahalahin’ i Joaba, no lehibe tamin’ izy telo lahy; fa izy koa namely telonjato lahy tamin’ ny lefona ka nahafaty azy, ka dia izy no nalaza tamin’ izy telo lahy.
Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name amongst the three.
21 Eny, tamin’ izy telo lahy dia izy no nanana voninahitra mihoatra noho ny azy roa lahy, fa izy no lehibeny; nefa tsy nahomby azy telo lahy teo izy.
Of the three, he was more honourable than the two, and was made their captain; however he wasn’t included in the three.
22 Ary Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, zanaky ny lehilahy mahay tany Kabzela, izay nahavita asa be, izy no nahafaty ny roa lahy mahery tany Moaba; ary izy koa no nidina namono ny liona tao anatin’ ny lavaka fantsakana tamin’ ilay andro nisy oram-panala iny.
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day.
23 Ary izy koa no namono ilay Egyptiana makadiry, izay dimy hakiho ny halavany, nefa teny an-tànan’ ilay Egyptiana nisy lefona tahaka ny vodi-tenon’ ny mpanenona; nefa namorotsahan’ i Benaia tamin’ ny tehiny ihany izy, dia nosarihany ny lefona teny an-tànan’ ilay Egyptiana, ka iny lefony iny ihany no namonoany azy.
He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high. In the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam; and he went down to him with a staff, plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.
24 Izany zavatra izany no nataon’ i Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, ary tamin’ izy telo lahy mahery dia izy no nalaza.
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things and had a name amongst the three mighty men.
25 Indro fa be voninahitra tamin’ ny telo-polo lahy izy, nefa tsy nahomby azy telo lahy teo; ary Davida nanao azy ho isan’ ny mpanolo-tsaina azy.
Behold, he was more honourable than the thirty, but he didn’t attain to the three; and David set him over his guard.
