I Paralipomenon 14
1 Misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri nuncios ad David, et ligna cedrina, et artifices parietum, lignorumque: ut ædificarent ei domum.
And Huram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar-trees, and masons, and carpenters, to build him a house.
2 Cognovitque David quod confirmasset eum Dominus in regem super Israel, et sublevatum esset regnum suum super populum eius Israel.
And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, for his kingdom was exalted exceedingly, for His people Israel's sake.
3 Accepit quoque David alias uxores in Ierusalem: genuitque filios, et filias.
And David took more wives at Jerusalem; and David begot more sons and daughters.
4 Et hæc nomina eorum, qui nati sunt ei in Ierusalem: Samua, et Sobab, Nathan, et Salomon,
And these are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon;
5 Iebahar, et Elisua, et Eliphalet,
and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet;
6 Noga quoque, et Napheg, et Iaphia,
and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia;
7 Elisama, et Baaliada, et Eliphalet.
and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
8 Audientes autem Philisthiim eo quod unctus esset David regem super universum Israel, ascenderunt omnes ut quærerent eum: quod cum audisset David, egressus est obviam eis.
And 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 to meet them.
9 Porro Philisthiim venientes, diffusi sunt in Valle Raphaim.
Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim.
10 Consuluitque 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.
And David inquired of God, saying: 'Shall I go up against the Philistines? and wilt Thou deliver them into my hand?' And the LORD said unto him: 'Go up; for I will deliver them into thy hand.'
11 Cumque 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.
So they came up to Baal-perazim, and David smote them there; and David said: 'God hath broken mine enemies by my hand, like the breach of waters.' Therefore they called the name of that place Baal-perazim.
12 Dereliqueruntque ibi deos suos, quos David iussit exuri.
And they left their gods there; and David gave commandment, and they were burned with fire.
13 Alia etiam vice Philisthiim irruerunt, et diffusi sunt in valle.
And the Philistines yet again made a raid in the valley.
14 Consuluitque rursum David Deum, et dixit ei Deus: Non ascendas post eos, recede ab eis, et venies contra illos ex adverso pyrorum.
And David inquired again of God; and God said unto him: 'Thou shalt not go up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry-trees.
15 Cumque audieris sonitum gradientis in cacumine pyrorum, tunc egredieris ad bellum. Egressus est enim Deus ante te, ut percutiat castra Philisthiim.
And it shall be, when thou hearest the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry-trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle; for God is gone out before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.'
16 Fecit ergo David sicut præceperat ei Deus, et percussit castra Philisthinorum, de Gabaon usque Gazera.
And David did as God commanded him; and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.
17 Divulgatumque est nomen David in universis regionibus, et Dominus dedit pavorem eius super omnes gentes.
And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.
