2 Samuel 5
1 Then came all the tribes of Israel to David to Hebron, and spoke, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.
Et venerunt universæ tribus Israel ad David in Hebron, dicentes: Ecce nos, os tuum, et caro tua sumus.
2 Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel.
Sed et heri et nudiustertius cum esset Saul rex super nos, tu eras educens et reducens Israel: dixit autem Dominus ad te: Tu pasces populum meum Israel, et tu eris dux super Israel.
3 So all the elders 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 king over Israel.
Venerunt quoque et seniores Israel ad regem in Hebron, et percussit cum eis rex David fœdus in Hebron coram Domino: unxeruntque David in regem super Israel.
4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
Filius triginta annorum erat David, cum regnare cœpisset, et quadraginta annis regnavit.
5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.
In Hebron regnavit super Iudam septem annis et sex mensibus: in Ierusalem autem regnavit triginta tribus annis super omnem Israel et Iudam.
6 And the king and his men went to Jerusalem to the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land: who spoke to David, saying, Except thou shalt take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in here: thinking, David cannot come in there.
Et abiit rex, et omnes viri qui erant cum eo, in Ierusalem, ad Iebusæum habitatorem terræ: dictumque est David ab eis: Non ingredieris huc, nisi abstuleris cæcos et claudos dicentes: Non ingredietur David huc.
7 Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion: the same is the city of David.
Cepit autem David arcem Sion, hæc est civitas David.
8 And David said on that day, Whoever getteth up to the gutter, and smiteth the Jebusites, and the lame and the blind, that are hated by David’s soul, he shall be chief and captain. Therefore they said, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.
Proposuerat enim David in die illa præmium, qui percussisset Iebusæum, et tetigisset domatum fistulas, et abstulisset cæcos et claudos odientes animam David. idcirco dicitur in proverbio: Cæcus et claudus non intrabunt in templum.
9 So David dwelt in the fort, and called it the city of David. And David built around from Millo and inward.
Habitavit autem David in arce, et vocavit eam, Civitatem David: et ædificavit per gyrum a Mello et intrinsecus.
10 And David went on, and grew great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him.
Et ingrediebatur proficiens atque succrescens, et Dominus Deus exercituum erat cum eo.
11 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons: and they built David an house.
Misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri nuncios ad David, et ligna cedrina, et artifices lignorum, artificesque lapidum ad parietes: et ædificaverunt domum David.
12 And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake.
Et cognovit David quoniam confirmasset eum Dominus regem super Israel, et quoniam exaltasset regnum eius super populum suum Israel.
13 And David took more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron: and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.
Accepit ergo David adhuc concubinas et uxores de Ierusalem, postquam venerat de Hebron: natique sunt David et alii filii et filiæ:
14 And these are the names of those that were born to him in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
et hæc nomina eorum, qui nati sunt ei in Ierusalem, Samua, et Sobab, et Nathan, et Salomon,
15 Ibhar also, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
et Iebahar, et Elisua, et Nepheg,
16 And Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphalet.
et Iaphia, et Elisama, et Elioda, et Eliphaleth.
17 But when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the strong hold.
Audierunt ergo Philisthiim quod unxissent David in regem super Israel: et ascenderunt universi ut quærerent David: quod cum audisset David, descendit in præsidium.
18 The Philistines also came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
Philisthiim autem venientes diffusi sunt in Valle Raphaim.
19 And David enquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up to the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the LORD said to David, Go up: for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
et consuluit David Dominum, dicens: Si ascendam ad Philisthiim? et si dabis eos in manu mea? Et dixit Dominus ad David: Ascende, quia tradens dabo Philisthiim in manu tua.
20 And David came to Baalperazim, and David smote them there, and said, The LORD hath broken forth upon my enemies before me, as the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baalperazim.
Venit ergo David in Baal Pharasim. et percussit eos ibi, et dixit: Divisit Dominus inimicos meos coram me, sicut dividuntur aquæ. Propterea vocatum est nomen loci illius, Baal Pharasim.
21 And there they left their images, and David and his men burned them.
Et reliquerunt ibi sculptilia sua: quæ tulit David, et viri eius.
22 And the Philistines came yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
Et addiderunt adhuc Philisthiim ut ascenderent, et diffusi sunt in Valle Raphaim.
23 And when David enquired of the LORD, he said, Thou shalt not go up; but make a circuit behind them, and come upon them in front of the mulberry trees.
Consuluit autem David Dominum: Si ascendam contra Philisthæos, et tradas eos in manus meas? Qui respondit: Non ascendas contra eos, sed gyra post tergum eorum, et venies ad eos ex adverso pyrorum.
24 And let it be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself: for then shall the LORD go out before thee, to smite the host of the Philistines.
Et cum audieris sonitum gradientis in cacumine pyrorum, tunc inibis prælium: quia tunc egredietur Dominus ante faciem tuam, ut percutiat castra Philisthiim.
25 And David did so, as the LORD had commanded him; and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou comest to Gazer.
Fecit itaque David sicut præceperat ei Dominus, et percussit Philisthiim de Gabaa, usque dum venias Gezer.
