2 Samuel 5

1 Pagkatapos pumunta ang lahat ng lipi ng Israel kay David sa Hebron at sinabi, “Tingnan mo, kami ay iyong laman at buto.

Then all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron and said, Truly, we are your bone and your flesh.

2 Sa nakaraang panahon, nang si Saul pa ang hari sa ating lahat, ikaw itong nangunguna sa hukbo ng Israelita. Sinabi ni Yahweh sa iyo, 'Magiging pastol ka ng aking bayan ng Israel, at magiging pinuno ka ng buong Israel.'''

In the past when Saul was king over us, it was you who went at the head of Israel when they went out or came in: and the Lord said to you, You are to be the keeper of my people Israel and their ruler.

3 Kaya dumating ang lahat na nakatatanda ng Israel sa hari ng Hebron, at gumawa si Haring David ng isang kasunduan sa kanila sa harapan ni Yahweh. Hinirang nila si David na maging hari ng buong Israel.

So all the responsible men of Israel came to the king at Hebron; and King David made an agreement with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they put the holy oil on David and made him king over Israel.

4 Tatlumpung taong gulang si David nang nagsimula siyang maghari, at naghari siya ng apatnapung taon.

David was thirty years old when he became king, and he was king for forty years,

5 Sa Hebron naghari siya sa buong Juda ng pitong taon at anim na buwan, at sa Jerusalem naghari siya ng tatlumpu't tatlong taon sa buong Israel at Juda.

Ruling over Judah in Hebron for seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem, over all Israel and Judah, for thirty-three years.

6 Pumunta ang hari at ang mga tauha niya sa Jerusalem laban sa mga Jebuseo, ang mga mamamayan ng lupain. Sinabi nila kay David, “Huwag kang babalik dito maliban kung papaalisin ka sa pamamagitan ng mga bulag at lumpo. Hindi makakapunta dito si David.”

And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the people of the land: and they said to David, You will not come in here, but the blind and the feeble-footed will keep you out; for they said, David will not be able to come in here.

7 Gayunpaman, nasakop ni David ang kuta ng Sion, na ngayon ay lungsod na ni David.

But David took the strong place of Zion, which is the town of David.

8 Sa oras na iyon sinabi ni David, 'Sinuman ang sasalakay sa mga taga-Jebus ay kailangang pumunta sa pamamagitan ng tubig at aabutin nila ang 'lumpo at bulag,' ang mga galit kay David.” kaya sinabi ng mga tao iyan, “Hindi makakapunta ang 'bulag at lumpo' sa palasyo.”

And that day David said, Whoever makes an attack on the Jebusites, let him go up by the water-pipe, and put to death all the blind and feeble-footed who are hated by David. And this is why they say, The blind and feeble-footed may not come into the house.

9 Kaya nanirahan si David sa kuta at tinawag itong siyudad ni David. Pinatibay niya ang palibot nito, mula sa terasa patungong loob.

So David took the strong tower for his living-place, naming it the town of David. And David took in hand the building of the town all round, starting from the Millo.

10 Naging lubos na makapangyarihan si David dahil kay Yahweh, ang Diyos ng mga hukbo, ay kasama niya.

And David became greater and greater; for the Lord, the God of armies, was with him.

11 Pagkatapos nagpadala ng mga mensahero si Hiram hari ng Tyre kay David, at mga punong sedro, karpintero, at mason. Nagtayo sila ng bahay para kay David.

And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent men to David, with cedar-trees and woodworkers and stoneworkers: and they made David a house.

12 Alam ni David na itinalaga siya ni Yahweh bilang hari sa buong Israel, at sa gayon naging dakila ang kaniyang kaharian para sa kapakanan ng kaniyang bayang Israel.

And David saw that the Lord had made his position safe as king over Israel, and that he had made his kingdom great because of his people Israel.

13 Pagkatapos nilisan ni David ang Hebron at pumunta sa Jerusalem, kumuha siya ng maraming kerida at mga asawa sa Jerusalem, at maraming mga lalaking anak at mga babaeng anak ang ipinanganak sa kaniya.

And David took more women and wives in Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron: and he had more sons and daughters.

14 Ito ang mga pangalan ng mga bata na ipinanganak sa kaniya sa Jerusalem: Sammua, Sobab, Natan, Solomon,

These are the names of those whose birth took place in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab and Nathan and Solomon

15 Ibhar, Elisua, Nefeg, Jafia,

And Ibhar and Elishua and Nepheg and Japhia

16 Elisama, Eliada, at Elifelet.

And Elishama and Eliada and Eliphelet.

17 Ngayon nang mabalitaan ng mga Filisteo na nahirang na si David bilang hari ng buong Israel, lumabas silang lahat para makita siya. Pero nabalitaan ni David ito at bumaba siya sa kuta.

And when the Philistines had news that David had been made king over Israel, they all went up in search of David; and David, hearing of it, went down to the strong place.

18 Ngayon dumating ang mga Filisteo at nagsikalat sa lambak ng Refaim.

And when the Philistines came, they went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.

19 Pagkatapos humingi si David ng tulong mula kay Yahweh. Sinabi niya, “Kailangan ko bang salakayin ang Filisteo? Bibigyan mo ba ako ng tagumpay laban sa kanila?” Sinabi ni Yahweh kay David, “Salakayin mo, dahil siguradong bibigyan kita ng tagumpay laban sa Filisteo.”

And David, desiring directions from the Lord, said, Am I to go up against the Philistines? will you give them up into my hands? And the Lord said, Go up, for I will certainly give up the Philistines into your hands.

20 Kaya sinalakay ni David ang Baal Perazim, at doon tinalo niya sila. Sinabi niya, “Pinatumba ni Yahweh ang aking mga kalaban sa aking harapan katulad ng isang rumaragasang tubig baha.” Kaya naging Baal Perazim ang pangalan ng lugar na iyon.

And David went to Baal-perazim, and overcame them there; and he said, The Lord has let the forces fighting against me be broken before me as a wall is broken by rushing waters. So that place was named Baal-perazim.

21 Iniwan ng mga taga-Filisteo ang kanilang mga diyus-diyosan doon, at dinala ni David at kaniyang mga tauhan ang mga ito.

And the Philistines, when they went in flight, did not take their images with them, and David and his men took them away.

22 Pagkatapos umakyat muli ang mga taga-Filisteo at nagsikalat sa lambak ng Refaim.

And the Philistines came up again, and went in every direction in the valley of Rephaim.

23 Kaya muling humingi si David ng tulong mula kay Yahweh, at sinabi ni Yahweh sa kaniya, “Hindi mo dapat salakayin ang kanilang harapan, pero palibutan mo ang likuran nila at lapitan mo sila sa pamamagitan ng mga kahoy ng balsam.

And when David went for directions to the Lord, he said, You are not to go up against them in front; but make a circle round them from the back and come on them opposite the spice-trees.

24 Kapag narinig mo ang tunog ng pag-ihip ng hangin sa itaas ng mga punong balsam, salakayin mo sila nang may lakas. Gawin mo ito dahil pangungunahan ka ni Yahweh para salakayin ang hukbong ng mga taga-Filisteo.''

Then at the sound of footsteps in the tops of the trees, go forward quickly, for the Lord has gone out before you to overcome the army of the Philistines.

25 Kaya ginawa ni David ang inutos ni Yahweh sa kaniya. Pinatay niya ang mgataga-Filisteo mula sa Geba hanggang sa Gezer.

And David did as the Lord had said; and he overcame the Philistines, attacking them from Gibeon to near Gezer.
