1 Mga Cronica 11
1 At nagpunta ang lahat ng Israelita kay David sa Hebron at sinabi, “Tingnan mo, kami ay iyong laman at dugo.
Then the people of Israel came to David at Hebron [town] and said to him, “Listen, we have the same ancestors [IDM] that you have.
2 Sa nakalipas na panahon nang naghari si Saul sa atin, ikaw ang nanguna sa mga hukbong Israelita. Sinabi sa iyo ni Yahweh na iyong Diyos, 'Ikaw ang mangangalaga sa aking bayang Israel at ikaw ang mamumuno sa aking bayang Israel.'”
In the past, when Saul was our king, it was you who led our Israeli [soldiers in our battles]. You are the one to whom Yahweh our God promised, ‘You will be the leader [MET] of my people; you will be their king.’”
3 Kaya lahat ng mga matatanda ng Israel ay pumunta sa hari sa Hebron at gumawa si David ng kasunduan sa kanila sa harap ni Yahweh. Binuhusan nila ng langis si David na hari ng buong Israel. Sa ganitong paraang natupad ang salita ni Yahweh na ipinahayag ni Samuel.
So all the Israeli elders came to David at Hebron. And David made a sacred agreement with them while Yahweh was listening. They anointed him [with olive oil to set him apart] to be the king of the Israeli people. That is what Yahweh had previously told [the prophet] Samuel would happen.
4 Si David at lahat ng Israelita ay nagtungo sa Jerusalem (iyan ay Jebus). Ngayon, naroon ang mga Jebuseo, na naninirahan sa lupain na iyon.
David and all the Israeli [soldiers] [SYN] went to Jerusalem. [At that time, ] Jerusalem was called Jebus, and the people who lived there were the Jebus people-group.
5 Sinabi ng mga naninirahan sa Jebus kay David, “Hindi ka makakapasok dito.” Ngunit tinalo ni David ang matibay na tanggulan ng Zion, iyon ay ang lungsod ni David.
Those people said to David, “Your [soldiers] will not be able to get inside our city!” But David’s [soldiers] captured the city, even though it had strong walls around it, and since then it has been called ‘The City of David’.
6 Sinabi ni David, “Sinuman ang unang lulusob sa mga Jebuseo ay magiging pinuno.” Kaya si Joab na anak ni Zuriah ang unang lumusob, kaya ginawa siyang pinuno ng hukbo.
[What happened was this: ]: David said [to his soldiers], “The one who leads [our soldiers] to attack the Jebus people-group will become the commander of all my army.” Joab, the son of Zeruiah, led the soldiers, so he became the commander of all the army.
7 Pagkatapos, nagsimulang tumira si David sa matibay na tanggulan. Kaya tinawag nila itong lungsod ni David.
[After they captured] the city which had strong walls around it, David moved there. That is why they named it ‘The City of David’.
8 Pinatibay niya ang pader ng lungsod mula sa Millo at pinalibutan niya ng pader. Pinatibay ni Joab ang natitirang bahagi ng lungsod.
David’s workers rebuilt the city, starting where the land was filled in and extending to the wall that was around the city. Joab’s [men] repaired the other parts of the city.
9 Naging dakila si David sapagkat ang makapangyarihang si Yahweh ay kasama niya.
David became more and more powerful/influential, because the Almighty Commander of the armies of angels was with/helping him.
10 Ito ang mga pinuno na mayroon si David na nagpakita na sila ay malalakas kasama niya sa kaniyang kaharian, kasama ang buong Israel upang gawin siyang hari, na sinusunod ang salita ni Yahweh tungkol sa Israel.
Yahweh had promised [that David would become the king]. And all the Israeli people (were happy that David was/supported David as) their king. There were many soldiers/warriors who helped David’s kingdom to remain strong.
11 Ito ang listahan ng mga piling kawal ni David: Si Jasobeam, na anak ng isang Hacmonita, ay pinuno ng tatlumpu. Pinatay niya ang tatlongdaang kalalakihan sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang sibat sa isang pagkakataon.
This is a list of the leaders of David’s [most mighty] warriors: Jashobeam was from the Hacmon clan. He was one of the leaders of David’s most powerful soldiers. One time he fought against 300 enemies and killed them all with his spear.
12 Sumunod sa kaniya si Eleazar na anak ni Dodo, na Ahohita na isa sa tatlong malalakas na mga kalalakihan.
Another one was Eleazar, who was the son of Dodo from the clan of Ahoh.
13 Kasama niya si David sa Pas-dammim, at doon nagtipon-tipon ang mga Filisteo para sa labanan, kung saan may bukid ng sebada at tumakas ang hukbo ng mga Israelita mula sa mga Filisteo.
[One day] he was with David at Pas Dammim when the soldiers of Philistia gathered there for the battle. There was a field of barley there. At first the Israeli soldiers ran away from the soldiers of Philistia,
14 Tumayo sila sa gitna ng bukid, ipinagtanggol ito at pinatay ang mga Filisteo. Iniligtas sila ni Yahweh na may malaking tagumpay.
but then David and Eleazar stopped in the middle of the field and fought to defend it and killed [many of] the soldiers of Philistia. Yahweh enabled them to win a great victory on that day.
15 At tatlo sa tatlumpung mga pinuno ang bumaba patungo kay David sa malaking bato, sa yungib ng Adullam. Nagkampo ang mga hukbo ng Filisteo sa lambak ng Rephaim.
One time three of David’s thirty most mighty warriors came to David when he was camping next to the huge rock outside the cave near Adullam. At that same time, the army of Philistia had camped in the Rephaim Valley.
16 Sa panahong iyon, naroon si David sa kaniyang tanggulan, isang yungib, samantalang nagtatag ang mga Filisteo ng kanilang kampo sa Betlehem.
David was in a fortress, and some of the soldiers of Philistia were occupying Bethlehem.
17 Nanabik sa tubig si David at sinabi, “Kung may magbibigay sana sa akin ng tubig upang inumin mula sa balon ng Betlehem, sa balon na malapit sa tarangkahan!”
[One day] David was very thirsty and said, “I wish that someone would bring me some water from the well near the gate at Bethlehem!”
18 Kaya sumugod ang tatlong malalakas na kalalakihan sa hukbo ng mga Filisteo at kumuha ng tubig mula sa balon ng Betlehem, ang balon na nasa tarangkahan. Kumuha sila ng tubig at dinala kay David, ngunit tumanggi siyang inumin ito. Sa halip, ibinuhos niya ito para kay Yahweh.
So those three most outstanding warriors forced their way through the camp of Philistia soldiers and drew some water from the well, and brought it to David. But he would not drink it. Instead, he poured it out [on the ground to be an offering] to Yahweh.
19 At sinabi niya, “Huwag mong ipahintulot, Yahweh, na inumin ko ito. Iinumin ko ba ang dugo ng mga kalalakihang nagbuwis ng kanilang mga buhay?” Dahil inilagay nila sa panganib ang kanilang buhay, ayaw niyang inumin ito. Ito ang mga bagay na ginawa ng tatlong matatapang na kalalakihan.
He said, “Yahweh, it would certainly not be right for me to drink this water! That would be like [RHQ] drinking the blood of these men who were willing/ready to die for me!” So he refused to drink it. That was one of the things that those three most outstanding warriors did.
20 Si Abisai na kapatid ni Joab ang namuno sa tatlo. Ginamit niya ng minsan ang kaniyang sibat laban sa tatlong daan at pinatay sila. Madalas siyang banggitin kasama ng tatlong kawal.
Joab’s [younger] brother Abishai was the leader of the 30 most mighty warriors. [One time] Abishai fought 300 [enemy] soldiers with his spear and killed them.
21 Sa tatlo, siya ay labis na pinarangalan at naging kanilang pinuno. Gayunman, ang kaniyang katanyagan ay hindi papantay sa katanyagan ng tatlong mga kawal.
So he became as famous as those three most outstanding warriors. He became their commander, even though he was not one of those three men.
22 Si Benaias na anak ni Joaida ay malakas na lalaki na gumawa ng mga kahanga-hangang gawa. Pinatay niya ang dalawang anak ni Ariel ng Moab. Bumaba din siya sa malalim na hukay at pinatay ang isang leon habang umuulan ng niyebe.
Jehoiada’s son Benaiah was a brave soldier from Kabzeel [town] who did heroic deeds. He killed two of the best warriors from [the] Moab [people-group]. One day he went down into a pit when snow was falling [on the ground] and killed a lion there.
23 Pinatay rin niya ang isang lalaking taga-Egipto na may limang kubit ang taas. Ang taga-Egipto ay may sibat na tulad ng kahoy na panghabi, subalit pumunta siya sa kaniya na tungkod lamang ang dala. Inagaw niya ang sibat sa kamay ng taga-Egipto at pinatay siya gamit ang sarili niyang sibat.
He also killed a soldier from Egypt who was (7-1/2 feet/2.3 meters) tall. The soldier from Egypt carried a spear that was as long as a weaver’s rod. Benaiah had [only] a club, but he grabbed the other man’s spear and killed him with it.
24 Ang mga kahanga-hangang gawa na ito ay ginawa ni Benaias na anak ni Joaida, at pinangalanan siya kasama ng tatlong malalakas na kalalakihan.
Those are some of the things that Benaiah did. So he became as famous as the three mighty warriors.
25 Mas higit siyang iginagalang kaysa sa tatlumpung mga kawal sa pangkalahatan, ngunit hindi siya iginagalang na katulad ng tatlong mga piling kawal. Gayunman, inilagay siya ni David na tagapangasiwa ng kaniyang mga bantay.
He was more honored than the other members of the group of thirty most mighty warriors, but he did not become a member of the group of three most outstanding warriors. David appointed him to be the leader of his bodyguards.
