< 2 Samweli 5 >
1 Makabila yote ya Israeli yakamjia Daudi huko Hebroni na kumwambia, “Sisi tu nyama yako na damu yako hasa.
And they came all [the] tribes of Israel to David Hebron towards and they said saying here [are] we [are] bone your and flesh your we.
2 Zamani, wakati Sauli alikuwa mfalme juu yetu, wewe ndiwe uliyeiongoza Israeli vitani. Naye Bwana alikuambia, ‘Wewe utawachunga watu wangu Israeli, na utakuwa mtawala wao.’”
Both yesterday as well as three days ago when was Saul king over us you (you were *Q(k)*) (the [one who] led out *Q(K)*) (and the [one who] brought *Q(k)*) Israel and he said Yahweh to you you you will shepherd people my Israel and you you will become ruler over Israel.
3 Wazee wote wa Israeli wakamwendea Mfalme Daudi huko Hebroni, mfalme akafanya mapatano nao huko Hebroni mbele za Bwana, nao wakamtia Daudi mafuta kuwa mfalme wa Israeli.
And they came all [the] elders of Israel to the king Hebron towards and he made to them the king David a covenant at Hebron before Yahweh and they anointed David to king over Israel.
4 Daudi alikuwa na miaka thelathini alipoanza kutawala, naye akatawala Israeli miaka arobaini.
[was] a son of Thirty year[s] David when became king he forty year[s] he reigned.
5 Huko Hebroni alitawala Yuda kwa miaka saba na miezi sita, na katika Yerusalemu alitawala Israeli yote na Yuda kwa miaka thelathini na mitatu.
In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three year[s] over all Israel and Judah.
6 Mfalme na watu wake wakaenda Yerusalemu kuwashambulia Wayebusi walioishi humo. Wayebusi wakamwambia Daudi, “Wewe hutaingia humu, kwani hata vipofu na viwete wanaweza kukufukuza.” Walidhani, “Daudi hawezi kuingia humu.”
And he went the king and men his Jerusalem against the Jebusite[s] [the] inhabitant[s] of the land and it said to David saying not you will come here that except he will turn aside you the blind [people] and the lame [people] saying not he will come David here.
7 Hata hivyo, Daudi akaiteka ngome ya Sayuni, Mji wa Daudi.
And he captured David [the] stronghold of Zion it [is] [the] city of David.
8 Siku ile, Daudi akasema, “Yeyote ambaye atawashinda Wayebusi, atatumia huo mfereji kuwafikia hao ‘viwete na vipofu’ ambao ni adui za Daudi.” Ndiyo sababu wanasema, “‘Vipofu na viwete’ hawataingia kwenye jumba la ufalme.”
And he said David on the day that any [one who] strikes a Jebusite and let him approach by the water tunnel the lame [people] and the blind [people] ([who are] hated *Q(K)*) of [the] self of David there-fore people say a blind [person] and a lame [person] not he will go into the house.
9 Ndipo Daudi akafanya makao ndani ya ngome na kuiita Mji wa Daudi. Akajenga eneo linalozunguka kuanzia Milo kuelekea ndani.
And he dwelt David in the stronghold and he called it [the] city of David and he built David round about from the Millo and [the] inside towards.
10 Daudi akazidi kuwa na nguvu zaidi na zaidi, kwa sababu Bwana Mungu Mwenye Nguvu Zote alikuwa pamoja naye.
And he went David going and becoming great and Yahweh [the] God of hosts [was] with him.
11 Basi Hiramu mfalme wa Tiro akawatuma wajumbe kwa Daudi, wakiwa na magogo ya mierezi, maseremala na waashi, nao wakajenga jumba la kifalme kwa ajili ya Daudi.
And he sent Hiram [the] king of Tyre messengers to David and trees of cedars and craftsmen of wood and craftsmen of [the] stone of a wall and they built a house for David.
12 Naye Daudi akafahamu kuwa Bwana amemwimarisha kuwa mfalme juu ya Israeli na ameinua ufalme wake kwa ajili ya Israeli, watu wake.
And he knew David that he had appointed him Yahweh to king over Israel and that he had exalted kingdom his for sake of people his Israel.
13 Baada ya Daudi kuondoka Hebroni, akajitwalia masuria zaidi na wake huko Yerusalemu, nao wana na binti wengi walizaliwa kwake.
And he took David again concubines and wives from Jerusalem after came he from Hebron and they were born again to David sons and daughters.
14 Haya ndiyo majina ya watoto waliozaliwa kwake huko: Shamua, Shobabu, Nathani, Solomoni,
And these [are] [the] names of the [ones] born to him in Jerusalem Shammua and Shobab and Nathan and Solomon.
15 Ibihari, Elishua, Nefegi, Yafia,
And Ibhar and Elishua and Nepheg and Japhia.
16 Elishama, Eliada na Elifeleti.
And Elishama and Eliada and Eliphelet.
17 Wafilisti waliposikia kuwa Daudi ametiwa mafuta kuwa mfalme wa Israeli, wakapanda na jeshi lao lote kwenda kumsaka, lakini Daudi akapata habari hizo, naye akateremka kwenye ngome.
And they heard [the] Philistines that people had anointed David to king over Israel and they went up all [the] Philistines to seek David and he heard David and he went down to the stronghold.
18 Basi Wafilisti walikuwa wamekuja na kusambaa kwenye Bonde la Warefai,
And [the] Philistines they came and they were spread out in [the] valley of Rephaim.
19 kwa hiyo Daudi akamuuliza Bwana, “Je, niende kuwashambulia Wafilisti? Je, utawatia mikononi mwangu?” Bwana akamjibu, “Nenda, kwa maana hakika nitawatia Wafilisti mikononi mwako.”
And he enquired David by Yahweh saying ¿ will I go up against [the] Philistines ¿ will you give them in hand my and he said Yahweh to David go up for certainly I will give the Philistines in hand your.
20 Ndipo Daudi akaenda mpaka Baal-Perasimu, na huko akawashinda Wafilisti. Akasema, “Kama mafuriko yafurikavyo, Bwana amewafurikia adui zangu mbele yangu.” Kwa hiyo mahali hapo pakaitwa Baal-Perasimu.
And he went David in Baal Perazim and he struck down them there David and he said he has burst through Yahweh enemies my before me like a bursting out of water there-fore someone called [the] name of the place that Baal Perazim.
21 Wafilisti wakaiacha miungu yao huko, naye Daudi na watu wake wakaichukua.
And they abandoned there idols their and he carried off them David and men his.
22 Wafilisti walikwea kwa mara nyingine na kusambaa katika Bonde la Warefai.
And they repeated again [the] Philistines to go up and they were spread out in [the] valley of Rephaim.
23 Kwa hiyo Daudi akamuuliza Bwana, naye akamjibu, “Usipande moja kwa moja, bali wazungukie kwa nyuma na uwashambulie mbele ya miti ya miforosadi.
And he enquired David by Yahweh and he said not you must go up go around to behind them and you will go to them from in front of [the] balsam trees.
24 Mara utakaposikia sauti ya kutembea kutoka kwenye vilele vya miti ya miforosadi, nenda haraka, kwa sababu hiyo itamaanisha kuwa Bwana ametangulia mbele yako kupiga jeshi la Wafilisti.”
And let it be (just as hearing you *Q(K)*) a sound of marching in [the] tops of the balsam trees then you will act decisively for then he has gone out Yahweh before you to strike [the] camp of [the] Philistines.
25 Basi Daudi akafanya kama Bwana alivyomwagiza, naye akawaangusha Wafilisti njia yote kuanzia Geba hadi Gezeri.
And he did David so just as he had commanded him Yahweh and he struck down [the] Philistines from Geba until coming you Gezer.
