1 Chronicles 14

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	VULGATA
1 Also, 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.	1 Misit quoque Hiram rex Tyri nuntios ad David, et ligna cedrina, et artifices parietum, lignorumque, ut ædificarent ei domum.
2 And David realized that the Lord had confirmed him as king over Israel, and that his kingdom had been lifted up over his people Israel.	2 Cognovitque David quod confirmasset eum Dominus in regem super Israël, et sublevatum esset regnum suum super populum ejus Israël.
3 Also, David took other wives in Jerusalem. And he conceived sons and daughters.	3 Accepit quoque David alias uxores in Jerusalem, genuitque filios et filias.
4 And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab, Nathan and Solomon,	4 Et hæc nomina eorum, qui nati sunt ei in Jerusalem : Samua, et Sobab, Nathan, et Salomon,
5 Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,	5 Jebahar, et Elisua, et Eliphalet,
6 as well as Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,	6 Noga quoque, et Napheg, et Japhia,
7 Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.	7 Elisama, et Baaliada, et Eliphalet.
8 Then, 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.	8 Audientes autem Philisthiim eo quod unctus esset David regem super universum Israël, ascenderunt omnes ut quærerent eum : quod cum audisset David, egressus est obviam eis.
9 Now the Philistines, arriving, spread out in the Valley of the Rephaim.	9 Porro Philisthiim venientes, diffusi sunt in valle Raphaim.
10 And 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.”	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.
11 And 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.	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.
12 And they left behind their gods in that place, and so David ordered them to be burned.	12 Dereliqueruntque ibi deos suos, quos David jussit exuri.
13 And then, at another time, the Philistines invaded, and they spread out in the valley.	13 Alia etiam vice Philisthiim irruerunt, et diffusi sunt in valle.
14 And 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.	14 Consuluitque rursum David Deum, et dixit ei Deus : Non ascendas post eos : recede ab eis, et venies contra illos ex adverso pyrorum.
15 And 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.”	15 Cumque audieris sonitum gradientis in cacumine pyrorum, tunc egredieris ad bellum : egressus est enim Deus ante te, ut percutiat castra Philisthiim.
16 Therefore, David did just as God had instructed him. And he struck down the army of the Philistines, from Gibeon as far as Gazera.	16 Fecit ergo David sicut præceperat ei Deus, et percussit castra Philisthinorum, de Gabaon usque Gazera.
17 And the name of David became well-known in all the regions. And the Lord placed the fear of him over all the nations.	17 Divulgatumque est nomen David in universis regionibus, et Dominus dedit pavorem ejus super omnes gentes.
