| 1 And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, also masons and carpenters to 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 perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that his kingdom was highly exalted for the sake of his people Israel. | 2 Cognovitque David quod confirmasset eum Dominus in regem super Israël, et sublevatum esset regnum suum super populum ejus Israël. |
| 3 And David took more wives in Jerusalem, and David begot more sons and daughters. | 3 Accepit quoque David alias uxores in Jerusalem, genuitque filios et filias. |
| 4 These are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon, | 4 Et hæc nomina eorum, qui nati sunt ei in Jerusalem : Samua, et Sobab, Nathan, et Salomon, |
| 5 Ibhar, Elishu-a, Elpelet, | 5 Jebahar, et Elisua, et Eliphalet, |
| 6 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia, | 6 Noga quoque, et Napheg, et Japhia, |
| 7 Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet. | 7 Elisama, et Baaliada, et Eliphalet.
|
| 8 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up in search of David; and David heard of it and went out against 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 had come and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim. | 9 Porro Philisthiim venientes, diffusi sunt in valle Raphaim. |
| 10 And David inquired of God, "Shall I go up against the Philistines? Wilt thou give them into my hand?" And the LORD said to him, "Go up, and I will give 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 he went up to Baal-perazim, and David defeated them there; and David said, "God has broken through my enemies by my hand, like a bursting flood." Therefore the name of that place is 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 their gods there, and David gave command, and they were burned. | 12 Dereliqueruntque ibi deos suos, quos David jussit exuri. |
| 13 And the Philistines yet again made a raid in the valley. | 13 Alia etiam vice Philisthiim irruerunt, et diffusi sunt in valle. |
| 14 And when David again inquired of God, God said to him, "You shall not go up after them; go around and come upon 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 the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, then go out to battle; for God has gone out before you to smite 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 And David did as God commanded him, and they smote the Philistine army from Gibeon to Gezer. | 16 Fecit ergo David sicut præceperat ei Deus, et percussit castra Philisthinorum, de Gabaon usque Gazera. |
| 17 And the fame of David went out into all lands, and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations. | 17 Divulgatumque est nomen David in universis regionibus, et Dominus dedit pavorem ejus super omnes gentes. |
