1 Istwa 14
1 Iram, wa lavil Tir la, delege kèk mesaje bò kote David ak yon chajman bwa sèd. Li voye tou kèk bòs mason ak bòs chapant pou bati yon palè pou li.
Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and craftsmen of a wall, and craftsmen of wood, to build him a palace.
2 Lè sa a atò, David wè tout bon vre se Seyè a menm ki te mete l' wa pèp Izrayèl la, epi ki te fè tout bagay mache byen pou gouvènman li, akòz pèp Bondye a, pèp Izrayèl la.
And David knew that the LORD had established him king over Israel; for his kingdom was exalted on high, for his people Israel's sake.
3 Lè David te lavil Jerizalèm, li pran lòt madanm ki ba li lòt pitit gason ak lòt pitit fi.
David took more wives at Jerusalem; and David became the father of more sons and daughters.
4 Men non pitit David ki te fèt lavil Jerizalèm: Chamwa, Choba, Natan, Salomon,
These are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,
5 Jibka, Elichwa, Elpelèt,
and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Eliphelet,
6 Noga, Nefèg, Jafya,
and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
7 Elichama, Baalyada ak Elifelèt.
and Elishama, and Baaliada, and Eliphelet.
8 Lè moun Filisti yo vin konnen yo te mete David wa pou tout pèp Izrayèl la, yo tout yo leve pou y' al mete men sou li. Lè David li menm pran nouvèl la, li soti al kontre yo.
When the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David: and David heard of it, and went out against them.
9 Moun Filisti yo rive, yo anvayi tout fon Refayim lan.
Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the Valley of Rephaim.
10 David pale ak Bondye, li mande l': -Eske se pou m' atake moun Filisti yo? Eske w'ap lage yo nan men m'? Seyè a reponn li: -Wi, atake yo. M'ap lage yo nan men ou.
David inquired of God, saying, "Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?" The LORD said to him, "Go up; for I will deliver them into your hand."
11 David moute Baal Perazim, li kraze moun Filisti yo. Le sa a, David di: -Tankou yon lavalas, Bondye sèvi avè m' pou l' louvri yon pasaj nan mitan lènmi m' yo. Se poutèt sa yo rele kote sa a Baal Perazim.
So they came up to Baal Perazim, and David struck them there; and David said, God has broken through my enemies by my hand, like a breakthrough of waters. Therefore they called the name of that place Baal Perazim.
12 Moun Filisti yo te kouri kite zidòl yo dèyè. David bay lòd pou yo boule yo nan dife.
They left their gods there; and David gave commandment, and they were burned with fire.
13 Apre sa, moun Filisti yo tounen nan fon an ankò pou fè piyay.
The Philistines yet again made a raid in the valley.
14 David mande Bondye sa pou li fè. Bondye di li: -Pa atake yo pa devan bò isit la. Fè yon detou, pase pa dèyè yo. W'a atake yo bò pye gayak yo.
And David inquired again of God; and God said to him, "You shall not go up after them. Turn away from them, and come at them opposite the poplar trees.
15 Lè w'a tande yon bri tankou bri pye yon moun k'ap mache sou tèt pyebwa yo, w'a fonse sou yo. Paske sa vle di se mwen menm Bondye k'ap pran devan ou pou bat lame moun Filisti yo.
And it shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the poplar trees, that then you shall go out to battle; for God has gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines."
16 David fè sa Seyè a te mande l' fè a. Yo bat lame moun Filisti yo, yo kouri dèyè yo depi lavil Geba rive lavil Gezè.
David did as God commanded him, and he struck the army of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.
17 Se konsa toupatou yo t'ap nonmen non wa David. Seyè a te fè tout nasyon yo pè li.
The fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him on all nations.
