1And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and masons, and carpenters, to build him a house.

2And David perceived that the Lord had confirmed him king over Israel, and that his kingdom was exalted over his people Israel.

3And David took other wives in Jerusalem: and he beget sons, and daughters.

4Now these are the names of them that were born to him in Jerusalem: Samua, and Sobad, Nathan, and Solomon,

5Jebahar, and Elisua, and Eliphalet,

6And Noga, and Napheg, and Japhia,

7Elisama. and Baaliada, and Eliphalet.

8And the Philistines hearing that David was anointed king over all Israel, went all up to seek him: and David heard of it, and went out against them.

9And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the vale of Raphaim.

10And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said to him: Go up, and I will deliver them into thy hand.

11And when they were come to Baalpharasim, David defeated them there, and he said: God hath divided my enemies by my hand, as waters are divided: and therefore the name of that place was called Baalpharasim.

12And they left there their gods, and David commanded that they should be burnt.

13Another time also the Philistines made an irruption, and spread themselves abroad in the valley.

14And David consulted God again, and God said to him: Go not up after them, turn away from them, and come upon them over against the pear trees.

15And when thou shalt hear the sound of one going in the tops of the pear trees, then shalt thou go out to battle. For God is gone out before thee to strike the army of the Philistines.

16And David did as God had commanded him, and defeated the army of the Philistines, slaying them from Gabaon to Gazera.

17And the name of David became famous in all countries, and the Lord made all nations fear him.

1Misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri nuntios ad David, et ligna cedrina, et artifices parietum, lignorumque, ut ædificarent ei domum.

2Cognovitque David quod confirmasset eum Dominus in regem super Israël, et sublevatum esset regnum suum super populum ejus Israël.

3Accepit quoque David alias uxores in Jerusalem, genuitque filios et filias.

4Et hæc nomina eorum, qui nati sunt ei in Jerusalem: Samua, et Sobab, Nathan, et Salomon,

5Jebahar, et Elisua, et Eliphalet,

6Noga quoque, et Napheg, et Japhia,

7Elisama, et Baaliada, et Eliphalet.

8Audientes autem Philisthiim eo quod unctus esset David regem super universum Israël, ascenderunt omnes ut quærerent eum: quod cum audisset David, egressus est obviam eis.

9Porro Philisthiim venientes, diffusi sunt in valle Raphaim.

10Consuluitque David Dominum, dicens: Si ascendam ad Philisthæos, et si trades eos in manu mea? Et dixit ei Dominus: Ascende, et tradam eos in manu tua.

11Cumque illi ascendissent in Baalpharasim, percussit eos ibi David, et dixit: Divisit Deus inimicos meos per manum meam, sicut dividuntur aquæ: et idcirco vocatum est nomen illius loci Baalpharasim.

12Dereliqueruntque ibi deos suos, quos David jussit exuri.

13Alia etiam vice Philisthiim irruerunt, et diffusi sunt in valle.

14Consuluitque rursum David Deum, et dixit ei Deus: Non ascendas post eos: recede ab eis, et venies contra illos ex adverso pyrorum.

15Cumque audieris sonitum gradientis in cacumine pyrorum, tunc egredieris ad bellum: egressus est enim Deus ante te, ut percutiat castra Philisthiim.

16Fecit ergo David sicut præceperat ei Deus, et percussit castra Philisthinorum, de Gabaon usque Gazera.

17Divulgatumque est nomen David in universis regionibus, et Dominus dedit pavorem ejus super omnes gentes.

1Also, Hiram, the king of Tyre, sent messengers to David, and cedar wood, and artisans of walls and of wood, so that they might build a house for him.

2And David realized that the Lord had confirmed him as king over Israel, and that his kingdom had been lifted up over his people Israel.

3Also, David took other wives in Jerusalem. And he conceived sons and daughters.

4And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab, Nathan and Solomon,

5Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,

6as well as Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

7Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

8Then, hearing that David had been anointed as king over all of Israel, all the Philistines ascended so that they might seek him. But when David had heard of it, he went out to meet them.

9Now the Philistines, arriving, spread out in the Valley of the Rephaim.

10And so David consulted the Lord, saying, “Shall I ascend to the Philistines, and will you deliver them into my hand?” And the Lord said to him, “Ascend, and I will deliver them into your hand.”

11And when they had ascended to Baal-perazim, David struck them there, and he said: “God has divided my enemies by my hand, just as waters are divided.” And therefore the name of that place was called Baal-perazim.

12And they left behind their gods in that place, and so David ordered them to be burned.

13And then, at another time, the Philistines invaded, and they spread out in the valley.

14And again, David consulted God. And God said to him: “You shall not ascend after them. Draw away from them. And you shall come against them opposite the balsam trees.

15And when you hear a sound approaching in the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall go forth to war. For God has gone forth before you, so that he may strike down the army of the Philistines.”

16Therefore, David did just as God had instructed him. And he struck down the army of the Philistines, from Gibeon as far as Gazera.

17And the name of David became well-known in all the regions. And the Lord placed the fear of him over all the nations.
