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, saying: Behold we are thy bone and thy 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.'''

Moreover yesterday also and the day before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that did lead out and bring in Israel: and the Lord said to thee: Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.

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.

The ancients also of Israel came to the king to Hebron, and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David to be 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 began to reign, and he reigned 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.

In Hebron he reigned over Juda seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned three and thirty years over all Israel and Juda.

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 all the men that were with him went to Jerusalem to the Jebusites the inhabitants of the land: and they said to David: Thou shalt not come in hither unless thou take away the blind and the lame that say: David shall not come in hither.

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

But David took the castle of Sion, the same is the city 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.”

For David had offered that day a reward to whosoever should strike the Jebusites and get up to the gutters of the tops of the houses, and take away the blind and the lame that hated the soul of David: therefore it is said in the proverb: The blind and the lame shall not come into the temple.

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

And David dwelt in the castle, and called it, The city of David: and built round about from Mello and inwards.

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

And he went on prospering and growing up, and the Lord God of hosts 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 the king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons for walls: and they built a house for David.

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 knew that the Lord bad confirmed him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom over 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 concubines and wives of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron: and there were born to David other sons also and daughters:

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

And these are the names of them, that were born to him in Jerusalem, Samua, and Sobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,

15 Ibhar, Elisua, Nefeg, Jafia,

And Jebahar, and Elisua, and Nepheg,

16 Elisama, Eliada, at Elifelet.

And Japhia, and Elisama, and Elioda, and Eliphaleth.

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 the Philistines heard that they had anointed David to be king over Israel: and they all came to seek David: and when David heard of it, he went down to a strong hold.

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

And the Philistines coming spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.

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 consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I go up to the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said to David: Go up, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into thy hand.

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 came to Baal Pharisim: and defeated them there, and he said: The Lord hath divided my enemies before me, as waters are divided. Therefore the name of the place was called Baal Pharisim.

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

And they left there their idols: which David and his men took away.

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

And the Philistines came up again and spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.

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 David consulted the Lord: Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou deliver them into my hands? He answered: Go not up against them, but fetch a compass behind them, and thou shalt come upon them over against the pear 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.''

And when thou shalt hear the sound of one going in the tops of the pear trees, then shalt thou join battle: for then will the Lord go out before thy face to strike 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 commanded him, and he smote the Philistines from Gabaa until thou come to Gezer.
