1 Mwet Israel nukewa elos som nu yorol David in acn Hebron ac fahk nu sel, “Kut mwet srahm na pwaye ac kut ikwa sefanna.
Then all Israel gathered themselves to David to Hebron, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.
2 In pacl somla, finne Saul pa tokosra lasr ah, kom pa kol mwet Israel ke mweun, ac LEUM GOD lom el wuleot nu sum lah kom ac fah leum fin mwet Israel ac karingin kut oana sie mwet shepherd.”
In times past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. The LORD your God said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over my people Israel.’”
3 Ouinge mwet kol nukewa lun Israel elos tuku nu yorol David in acn Hebron. David el orala sie wulela na ku yorolos, ac elos mosrwella tuh elan tokosra lun Israel, oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh wulela kac in kas lal Samuel.
So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD. They anointed David king over Israel, according to the LORD’s word by Samuel.
4 Tokosra David ac mwet Israel nukewa elos utyak nu Jerusalem ac mweuni siti sac. In pacl se ingo inen siti sac pa Jebus, ac mwet na pwaye lun an we — mwet Jebus — elos srakna muta we.
David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (also called Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there.
5 Mwet Jebus elos tuh fahk nu sel David mu el ac tiana ku in utyak nu in siti sac. Tusruktu David el sruokya pot ku lalos Zion, na mutawauk in pangpang acn sac “Siti sel David.”
The inhabitants of Jebus said to David, “You will not come in here!” Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion. The same is David’s city.
6 David el fahk, “Mwet se emeet su uniya sie mwet Jebus, el ac fah captain lun un mwet mweun!” Na Joab, su nina kial pa Zeruiah, el pa fahsryak emeet in mweun, ouinge el pa captain lun un mwet mweun lal David.
David had said, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain.” Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief.
7 Ke sripen David el som muta ke pot sac, acn sac tufah pangpang “Siti sel David.”
David lived in the stronghold; therefore they called it David’s city.
8 David el sifil musaela siti sac, mutawauk ke acn se ma koaneyukla layen kutulap in eol soko we. Ac Joab el aksasuye acn lula ke siti sac.
He built the city all around, from Millo even around; and Joab repaired the rest of the city.
9 David el kapkapak ac kui, mweyen LEUM GOD Kulana El welul.
David grew greater and greater, for the LORD of Hosts was with him.
10 Inen mwet mweun pwengpeng lal David pa takinyukla inge. U se inge, weang mwet Israel nukewa saya, elos kasrel David tuh elan tokosrala in oana ma LEUM GOD El tuh wulela, ac elos oru tuh tokosrai lal in ku na.
Now these are the chief of the mighty men whom David had, who showed themselves strong with him in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the LORD’s word concerning Israel.
11 Mwet se meet an pa Jashobeam, ke sou lulap lal Hachmon. El mwet kol lun u se pangpang “Mwet Tolu” ah. El anwukkin osra natul lain mwet tolfoko, ac uniya nufon ke mweun sefanna.
This is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam, the son of a Hachmonite, the chief of the thirty; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.
12 Mwet se akluo sin mwet pwengpeng tolu inge pa Eleazar, wen natul Dodo in sou lal Ahoh.
After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.
13 El welul David mweun lain mwet Philistia ke mweun se in Pas Dammim. El tuh muta in ima in barley se ke mwet Israel elos mutawauk in kaing.
He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was a plot of ground full of barley; and the people fled from before the Philistines.
14 Eleazar ac mwet lal elos tiana kaing, a elos tu na infulwen ima sac ac mweun lain mwet Philistia. LEUM GOD El sang kutangla na yohk se nu sel.
They stood in the middle of the plot, defended it, and killed the Philistines; and the LORD saved them by a great victory.
15 Sie len ah, tolu sin mwet mweun pwengpeng tolngoul som nu ke acn se David el muta we sisken sie eot ma apkuran nu ke Luf Adullam. In pacl sac pacna oasr un mwet Philistia mutangan aktuktuk ke Infahlfal Rephaim.
Three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the army of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
16 Ke pacl se ingan, David el muta ke sie tohktok ma kuhlusyukyak, ac sie pac un mwet Philistia elos sruokya acn Bethlehem ac muta we.
David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem at that time.
17 David el srounfusryak ac fahk, “Nga ke sie mwet in use kutu kof ah nimuk ke lufin kof se ke mutunpot Bethlehem!”
David longed, and said, “Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”
18 Mwet mweun pwengpeng tolu ah elos fokoko na sifacna utyak sasla nien aktuktuk lun mwet Philistia, na utia kof ke lufin kof sac ac usla nu yorol David. Tusruktu el tiana nimya, a el okoala nu infohk uh tuh in mwe kisa nu sin LEUM GOD.
The three broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, took it, and brought it to David; but David would not drink any of it, but poured it out to the LORD,
19 El fahk, “Nga koflana nim kof se inge, mweyen ac oana ngan nim srahn mwet su pilesrala moul lalos inge!” Ouinge el srangesr nim. Na pa ingan orekma pulaik lun mwet mweun pwengpeng tolu ah.
and said, “My God forbid me, that I should do this! Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy?” For they risked their lives to bring it. Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.
20 Abishai, tamulel lal Joab, el pa mwet kol lun u se pangpang “Mwet Pwengpeng Tolngoul.” El anwukkin osra natul in lain mwet tolfoko, ac el onelosi nufon. Na el mutawauk in pwengpeng inmasrlon “Mwet Tolngoul” ah.
Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the three; for he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name amongst the three.
21 El pa pwengpeng emeet sin “Mwet Tolngoul” ah, ac el mwet kol lac lalos, tusruktu el tia arulana pwengpeng oana “Mwet Tolu” ah.
Of the three, he was more honourable than the two, and was made their captain; however he wasn’t included in the three.
22 Benaiah, wen natul Jehoiada mwet Kabzeel, el sie mwet mweun pwengpeng, ac el oru ma watwen pus. Sie pacl ah el uniya mwet mweun na ku luo lun mwet Moab. Oayapa sie len ma yohk snow ah, el tufoki nu in luf se ac uniya lion soko.
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day.
23 El oayapa uniya mukul Egypt se — sie mwet yohk pisa ac fit itkosr tafu fulatal, ac el sruokya osra na lulap soko. Benaiah el lainul ke sikal soko. El tulakunla osra soko liki poun mwet Egypt sac, ac sang unilya.
He killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high. In the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s beam; and he went down to him with a staff, plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.
24 Pa ingan kutu ma watwen Benaiah el oru, su sie sin “Mwet Tolngoul” ah.
Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things and had a name amongst the three mighty men.
25 El pisrla inmasrlon “Mwet Tolngoul” ah, tusruktu el tia pwengpeng oana “Mwet Tolu” ah. Na David el sang tuh Benaiah elan mwet kol fin mwet mweun karinginyal sifacna.
Behold, he was more honourable than the thirty, but he didn’t attain to the three; and David set him over his guard.
