2 Samoela 5
1 Dia tonga tao amin’ i Davida tao Hebrona ny firenen’ Isiraely rehetra ka nanao hoe: Indreto izahay, fa taolanao sy nofonao.
Then all the tribes of Israel came to David to Hebron, and spoke, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.
2 Fa hatry ny fony fahiny ihany koa, raha mbola nanjaka taminay aza Saoly, dia ianao no mpitarika ny Isiraely nivoaka sy niditra; ary Jehovah efa nilaza taminao hoe: Hianao no ho mpiandry ny Isiraely oloko, ary ianao no ho mpanapaka azy.
In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was thou who led out and brought in Israel. And Jehovah said to thee, Thou shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and thou shall be prince over Israel.
3 Eny, tonga tao amin’ ny mpanjaka tao Hebrona ny loholon’ ny Isiraely rehetra, ary Davida mpanjaka nanao fanekena taminy tao Hebrona teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah; ary dia nanosotra an’ i Davida ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely izy.
So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron. And king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Jehovah, and they anointed David king over Israel.
4 Telo-polo taona Davida fony izy vao nanjaka, ary nanjaka efa-polo taona izy.
David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
5 Tao Hebrona no nanjakany tamin’ ny Joda fito taona sy enim-bolana; ary tany Jerosalema no nanjakany tamin’ ny Isiraely sy ny Joda rehetra telo amby telo-polo taona.
In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.
6 Ary ny mpanjaka sy ny olony nankany Jerosalema hiady amin’ ny Jebosita tompon-tany, ary hoy izy ireo tamin’ i Davida: Tsy ho tafiditra eto ianao; fa na dia ny jamba ny mandringa aza dia hahasakana anao ka hanao hoe: Tsy ho tafiditra eto Davida.
And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke to David, saying, Unless thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shall not come in here, thinking, David cannot come in here.
7 Kanjo afak’ i Davida ihany ny batery fiarovana, dia Ziona (Tanànan’ i Davida izany).
Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.
8 Ary hoy Davida tamin’ izany andro izany: Izay mamely ny Jebosita, dia aoka hananika ho eo amin’ ny riana ka hamely, ny mandringa sy ny jamba izay halan’ ny fon’ i Davida. Koa dia mby am-pitenenana hoe: Izay jamba mandringa tsy ho tafiditra ao an-trano.
And David said on that day, Whoever smites the Jebusites, let him get up to the watercourse, and smite the lame and the blind, the hated by David's soul, because the blind and the lame say, He cannot come into the house.
9 Dia nitoetra tao anatin’ ny batery fiarovana Davida, ary ny anarany nataony hoe: Tanànan’ i Davida. Ary narafitr’ i Davida ny manodidina hatrany Milo mbamin’ ny ao anatiny.
And David dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward.
10 Koa dia nandroso sy nihalehibe Davida, fa Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro, no nomba azy.
And David grew greater and greater, for Jehovah, the God of hosts, was with him.
11 Ary Hirama, mpanjakan’ i Tyro, naniraka olona tany amin’ i Davida nampanatitra hazo sedera ary nandefa mpandrafitra sy tambato; dia nanao trano ho an’ i Davida ireo.
And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons, and they built David a house.
12 Dia fantatr’ i Davida fa Jehovah efa nampitoetra azy ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely ka nanandratra ny fanjakany noho ny amin’ ny Isiraely olony.
And David perceived that Jehovah had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel's sake.
13 Ary Davida mbola naka vaditsindrano sy vady koa tany Jerosalema, rehefa tonga avy tany Hebrona izy; ary dia nisy zanakalahy sy zanakavavy koa naterak’ i Davida.
And David took for him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he came from Hebron, and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.
14 Ary izao no anaran’ ny naterany tany Jerosalema: Samoa sy Sobaba sy Natana sy Solomona
And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
15 sy Jibara sy Elisoa sy Nafega sy Jafia
and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
16 sy Elisama sy Eliada ary Elifeleta.
and Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphelet.
17 Koa nony ren’ ny Filistina fa efa nohosoran’ ny olona ho mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely Davida, dia niakatra hitady azy ny Filistina rehetra; fa raha ren’ i Davida izany dia nidina tao amin’ ny batery fiarovana izy.
And when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard of it, and went down to the stronghold.
18 Ary dia tonga ny Filistina ka nihahakahaka teny amin’ ny Lohasahan’ ny Refaïta.
Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
19 Ary Davida nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah hoe: Hiakatra hamely ny Filistina va aho? Hatolotrao eo an-tanako va izy? Dia hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Davida: Miakara, fa hatolotro eo an-tananao tokoa ny Filistina.
And David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will thou deliver them into my hand? And Jehovah said to David, Go up, for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
20 Ary Davida tonga tao Bala-perazima ka namely ireo tao, dia hoy izy: Jehovah efa namaky ny fahavaloko teo anoloako hipariaka toy ny rano vaky; koa izany no nanaovany ny anaran’ izany tany izany hoe Bala-perazima.
And David came to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there. And he said, Jehovah has broken my enemies before me, like the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baal-perazim.
21 Ary nilaozany tao ny sampiny, ka dia lasan’ i Davida sy ny olony ireny.
And they left their images there, and David and his men took them away.
22 Ary niakatra indray ny Filistina ka nihahakahaka teny amin’ ny Lohasahan’ ny Refaïta.
And the Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
23 Ary nanontany tamin’ i Jehovah Davida, ka novaliany hoe: Aza mandeha; fa hodidino avy eo aoriana izy, ka ho tonga eo aminy ianao eo amin’ ny tandrifin’ ny hazo balsama.
And when David inquired of Jehovah, he said, Thou shall not go up. Make a circuit behind them, and come upon them opposite the mulberry trees.
24 Ary raha toa mahare fingadongadon’ olona eny amin’ ny tendron’ ny hazo balsama ianao, dia faingàna; fa amin’ izay no efa miainga mialoha anao Jehovah hamely ny miaramilan’ ny Filistina.
And it shall be, when thou hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou shall bestir thyself, for then Jehovah has gone out before thee to smite the army of the Philistines.
25 Ary dia nanao araka ny nandidian’ i Jehovah azy Davida ka dia namely ny Filistina hatrany Geba ka hatrao akaikin’ i Gazera izy.
And David did so, as Jehovah commanded him, and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gezer.
