2 Samuel 5

1 Afei, Israel mmusuakuo no nyinaa kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn wɔ Hebron kɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛn nyinaa yɛ wʼabusuafoɔ.

And alle the lynagis of Israel camen to Dauid, in Ebron, and seiden, Lo! we ben thi boon and thi fleisch.

2 Mmerɛ bi a atwam no a mpo na Saulo yɛ yɛn ɔhene no, wo ara na wodii Israel anim. Na Awurade aka akyerɛ wo sɛ, ‘Wobɛyɛ me manfoɔ Israel so odwanhwɛfoɔ. Wobɛyɛ wɔn kannifoɔ.’”

But also yistirdai and the thridde day ago, whanne Saul was kyng on vs, thou leddist out, and leddist ayen Israel; forsothe the Lord seide to thee, Thou schalt fede my puple Israel, and thou schalt be duyk on Israel.

3 Enti Hebron hɔ, Dawid ne Israel ntuanofoɔ no yɛɛ apam wɔ Awurade anim. Na wɔsraa no ngo sii no Israelhene.

Also and the eldere men of Israel camen to the kyng, in Ebron; and kyng Dauid smoot with hem boond of pees in Ebron, bifor the Lord; and thei anoyntiden Dauid in to kyng on Israel.

4 Dawid dii adeɛ no, na wanya mfirinhyia aduasa. Na ɔdii adeɛ mfirinhyia aduanan.

Dauid was a sone of thretti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnyde fourti yeer in Ebron;

5 Ɔtenaa Hebron dii adeɛ wɔ Yuda so mfirinhyia nson ne abosome nsia. Na ɔtenaa Yerusalem no nso, ɔdii Israel ne Yuda nyinaa so ɔhene mfirinhyia aduasa mmiɛnsa.

he regnede on Juda seuene yeer and sixe monethis; forsothe in Jerusalem he regnede thretti and thre yeer, on al Israel and Juda.

6 Dawid dii nʼakodɔm anim kɔɔ Yerusalem kɔko tiaa Yebusifoɔ. Yebusifoɔ no dii wɔn ho fɛ sɛ, “Morentumi mma ha. Na mpo, anifirafoɔ ne mmubuafoɔ bɛtu mo afiri ha.” Ɛfiri sɛ, na Yebusifoɔ no dwene sɛ wɔwɔ banbɔ.

And the kyng yede, and alle men that weren with hym, in to Jerusalem, to Jebusey, dweller of the lond. And it was seide of hem to Dauid, Thou schalt not entre hidur, no but thou do awei blynde men and lame, seiynge, Dauid schal not entre hydur.

7 Nanso, Dawid ko faa Sion aban no a seesei wɔfrɛ no Dawid Kuropɔn no.

Forsothe Dauid took the tour of Syon; this is the citee of Dauid.

8 Ɛberɛ a atɛnnidie nkra firi banbɔfoɔ a wɔwɔ kuro no mu duruu Dawid asom no, ɔka kyerɛɛ ne dɔm no sɛ, “Momfa nsudorobɛn no mu nkɔ kuro no mu, na monkɔsɛe Yebusifoɔ mpakye ne anifirafoɔ no, ɛfiri sɛ mekyiri wɔn! ‘Anifirafoɔ ne mpakye’ nnkɔ efie no mu” no abɔseɛ nie.

For Dauid hadde `sette forth meede in that dai to hym, that hadde smyte Jebusei, and hadde touchid the goteris of roouys, and hadde take awey lame men and blynde, hatynge the lijf of Dauid. Therfor it is seid in prouerbe, A blynde man and lame schulen not entre in to the temple.

9 Enti, Dawid yɛɛ aban no nʼatenaeɛ, na ɔfrɛɛ hɔ Dawid Kuropɔn. Ɔsisii banbɔdan bebree twaa kuro no ho kaa ho. Wɔhyɛɛ dwumadie no ase wɔ Milo de baa mu.

Forsothe Dauid dwellide in the tour, and clepide it the citee of Dauid; and he bildide bi cumpas fro Mello, and with ynne.

10 Na Dawid kɔɔ so yɛɛ kɛseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, Asafo Awurade Onyankopɔn ka ne ho.

And he entride profitynge and encreessynge; and the Lord God of oostis was with hym.

11 Afei, Tirohene Huram somaa abɔfoɔ kɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn a nnua dwumfoɔ ne aboɔ adansifoɔ ka wɔn ho sɛ wɔnkɔsi ahemfie mma no. Huram de ntweneduro nnua bebree kɔɔ hɔ sɛ wɔmpae.

Also Hyram, kyng of Tire, sent messangeris to Dauid, and cedre trees, and crafti men of trees, and crafti men of stoonus to wallis; and thei bildiden the hows of Dauid.

12 Na Dawid hunuu sɛ, ne nkurɔfoɔ Israelfoɔ enti, Awurade asi no ɔhene, na wayɛ nʼahemman kɛseɛ.

And Dauid knew, that the Lord hadde confermed hym kyng on Israel, and that he hadde enhaunsid his rewme on his puple Israel.

13 Dawid tu firi Hebron baa Yerusalem no, ɔwaree mmaa bebree faa mpenafoɔ nso. Ɛno enti, ɔwoo mmammarima ne mmammaa bebree.

Therfor Dauid took yit concubyns, and wyues of Jerusalem, after that he cam fro Ebron; and also othere sones and douytris weren borun to Dauid.

14 Yeinom ne Dawid mmammarima a wɔwowoo wɔn wɔ Yerusalem no: Samua, Sobab, Natan, Salomo

And these ben the names of hem that weren borun to hym in Jerusalem; Samua, and Sobab, and Nathan,

15 Yibhar, Elisua, Nefeg, Yafia

and Salomon, and Jobaar, and Helisua,

16 Elisama, Eliada ne Elifelet.

and Repheg, and Japhia, and Helysama, and Holida, and Heliphelech.

17 Ɛberɛ a Filistifoɔ tee sɛ wɔasra Dawid, de no asi Israelhene no, wɔboaboaa wɔn akodɔm ano, kɔhwehwɛɛ Dawid sɛ wɔbɛnya no akye no. Na Dawid teeɛ no, ɔno nso kɔɔ ne banbɔeɛm.

Therfor Filisteis herden, that thei hadden anoyntid Dauid kyng on Israel, and alle Filisteis stieden to seke Dauid. And whanne Dauid hadde herd this, he yede doun into a strong hold.

18 Afei, Filistifoɔ no bɛduruu Refaim bɔnhwa mu, na wɔtrɛtrɛɛ wɔn ho mu wɔ hɔ.

Forsothe Filisteis camen, and weren spred abrood in the valei of Raphaym.

19 Enti, Dawid bisaa Awurade sɛ, “Menkɔto nhyɛ Filistifoɔ yi so anaa? Wobɛdane wɔn ahyɛ me nsa anaa?” Awurade buaa no sɛ, “Aane, kɔ na mɛdane Filistifoɔ no ahyɛ wo nsa.”

And Dauid counseilide the Lord, and seide, Whether Y schal stie to Filisties, and whether thou schalt yyue hem in myn hond? And the Lord seide to Dauid, Stie thou, for Y schal bitake, and Y schal yyue Filisteis in thin hond.

20 Enti, Dawid kɔɔ Baal-Perasim, na ɛhɔ na ɔdii Filistifoɔ no so nkonim. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Awurade ayɛ! Ɔbɔ wuraa mʼatamfoɔ no mu sɛ nsuyire a ɛreworo so!” Enti Dawid too beaeɛ hɔ din sɛ Baal-Perasim.

Therfor Dauid cam in to Baal Farasym, and smoot hem there, and seide, The Lord departide myn enemyes bifor me, as watris ben departid. Therfor the name of that place was clepid Baal Farasym.

21 Filistifoɔ no gyaa wɔn ahoni wɔ hɔ, maa Dawid ne ne mmarima no soaa ne nyinaa kɔeɛ.

And thei leften there her sculptils, whiche Dauid took, and hise men.

22 Filistifoɔ no sane baa bio bɛhwetee wɔn ho mu wɔ Refaim bɔnhwa ho,

And Filisteis addiden yit, that thei schulden stie, and thei weren spred abrood in the valey of Raphaym.

23 enti, Dawid bisaa Awurade deɛ ɔnyɛ. Awurade buaa sɛ, “Nkɔ tee, mmom, twa fa wɔn ho wɔ wɔn akyi, na to hyɛ wɔn so wɔ baka nnua no anim.

Sotheli Dauid councelide the Lord, and seide, Whether Y schal stie agens Filisties, and whether thou schalt bitake hem in to myn hondis? Which answeride, Thou schalt not stie ayens hem, but cumpasse thou bihynde her bak, and thou schalt come to hem on the contrarie side of the pere trees.

24 Na sɛ wote nnyegyeeɛ te sɛ nsrabɔ bi wɔ baka nnua no atifi a, kɔtua wɔn! Ɛkyerɛ sɛ, Awurade atu di wʼanim rekɔkunkum Filistifoɔ no.”

And whanne thou schalt here the sown of cry goynge in the cop of `pere trees, thanne thou schalt biginne batel; for thanne the Lord schal go out befor thi face, that he smyte the castels of Filisteis.

25 Enti, Dawid yɛɛ deɛ Awurade ka kyerɛɛ no no, na ɔsɛee Filistifoɔ no firi Geba de kɔsii Geser.

Therfor Dauid dide as the Lord comaundide to hym; and he smoot Filisteys fro Gabaa til `the while thei camen to Jezer.
