1 Tantara 14

1 Ary Hirama, mpanjakan’ i Tyro, naniraka olona tany amin’ i Davida sady nampanatitra hazo sedera ary nandefa mpanao trano vato sy mpandrafitra hanao trano ho azy.

And Churam the king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and trees of cedars, and masons and carpenters, to build him a house.

2 Dia fantatr’ i Davida fa Jehovah efa nampitoetra azy ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, ka voasandratra ny fanjakany noho ny amin’ ny Isiraely olony.

And David felt conscious that the Lord had established him as king over Israel; for his kingdom was exalted on high, because of his people Israel.

3 Ary Davida nampaka-bady koa tany Jerosalema ka niteraka zazalahy sy zazavavy.

And David took yet more wives at Jerusalem; and David begat more sons and daughters.

4 Ary izao no anaran’ ny zanany naterany tany Jerosalema: Samoa sy Sobaba sy Natana sy Solomona

And these are the names of the children that he had in Jerusalem: Shammua', and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,

5 sy Jibara sy Elisoa sy Elipeleta

And Yibchar, and Elishua', and Elpalet,

6 sy Noga sy Nafega sy Jafia

And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Yaphia',

7 sy Elisama sy Seliada ary Elifeleta.

And Elishama', and Be'elyada', and Eliphalet.

8 Koa nony ren’ ny Filistina fa efa nohosorana ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely rehetra Davida, dia niakatra hitady azy ny Filistina rehetra. Koa raha ren’ i Davida izany, dia nivoaka hiady taminy izy.

But when the Philistines heard that David had been anointed as king over all Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David: and David heard of it, and went out against them.

9 Ary dia tonga ny Filistina ka nihahakahaka teny amin’ ny Lohasahan’ ny Refaïta.

And the Philistines came and spread themselves out in the valley of Rephaim.

10 Ary Davida nanontany tamin’ Andriamanitra hoe: Hiakatra hamely ny Filistina va aho? Hatolotrao eo an-tanako va izy? Dia hoy Jehovah taminy: Miakara, fa hatolotro eo an-tananao izy.

And David asked counsel of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said unto him, Go up; and I will deliver them into thy hand.

11 Dia niakatra nankao Bala-perazima Davida ka namely azy teo; dia hoy izy: Ny tanako no namakian’ Andriamanitra ny fahavaloko hipariaka toy ny rano vaky; koa izany no nanaovany ny anaran’ izany tany izany hoe Bala-perazima.

And they came up to Ba'al-perazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken down my enemies through my hand as a breach [is made] by water: therefore they called the name of that place Ba'al-perazim.

12 Dia nilaozan’ ireny teo ireo andriamaniny, ka dia nasain’ i Davida nodorana tamin’ ny afo.

And they left behind there their gods, and David gave the order, and they were burnt with fire.

13 Ary tonga indray ny Filistina ka nihahakahaka teny an-dohasaha indray.

And the Philistines [came] once again, and spread themselves out in the valley.

14 Dia nanontany tamin’ Andriamanitra indray Davida ka novaliany hoe: Aza mandeha hanenjika azy; fa mivilia azy, dia mandehana, fa ho tonga eo aminy ianao eo amin’ ny tandrifin’ ny hazo balsama.

And David asked again counsel of God; and God said unto him, Thou shalt not go up after them: turn about from them, and come upon them opposite the mulberry-trees,

15 Ary raha toa mahare fingadongadon’ olona eny amin’ ny tendron’ ny hazo balsama ianao, dia miaingà amin’ izay hiady; fa amin’ izay no efa miainga mialoha anao Andriamanitra hamely ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina.

And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of walking on the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle; for God will be gone forth before thee to smite the camp of the Philistines.

16 Ary dia nanao araka izay nandidian’ Andriamanitra azy Davida, ka dia namely ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina hatrany Gibeona ka hatrany Gazera izy.

And David did as God had commanded him; and they smote the camp of the Philistines from Gib'on as far as Gezer.

17 Ary ny lazan’ i Davida niely teny amin’ ny tany rehetra; ary nataon’ i Jehovah nahazo ny firenena rehetra ny tahotra an’ i Davida.

And the fame of David went out into all the lands; and the Lord laid the dread of him upon all the nations.
