1 וַיִּשְׁלַח [חִירָם כ] (חוּרָם ק) מֶלֶךְ־צֹר מַלְאָכִים אֶל־דָּוִיד וַעֲצֵי אֲרָזִים וְחָרָשֵׁי קִיר וְחָרָשֵׁי עֵצִים לִבְנֹות לֹו בָּיִת1 Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, with cedar wood, stone-cutters and carpenters, to build hima palace.
2 וַיֵּדַע דָּוִיד כִּי־הֱכִינֹו יְהוָה לְמֶלֶךְ עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּי־נִשֵּׂאת לְמַעְלָה מַלְכוּתֹו בַּעֲבוּר עַמֹּו יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ פ2 David then knew that Yahweh had confirmed him as king of Israel and, for the sake of his people, hadextended his sovereignty.
3 וַיִּקַּח דָּוִיד עֹוד נָשִׁים בִּירוּשָׁלִָם וַיֹּולֶד דָּוִיד עֹוד בָּנִים וּבָנֹות3 David took more wives in Jerusalem and fathered more sons and daughters.
4 וְאֵלֶּה שְׁמֹות הַיְלוּדִים אֲשֶׁר הָיוּ־לֹו בִּירוּשָׁלִָם שַׁמּוּעַ וְשֹׁובָב נָתָן וּשְׁלֹמֹה4 These are the names of the children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
5 וְיִבְחָר וֶאֱלִישׁוּעַ וְאֶלְפָּלֶט5 Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,
6 וְנֹגַהּ וְנֶפֶג וְיָפִיעַ6 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,
7 וֶאֱלִישָׁמָע וּבְעֶלְיָדָע וֶאֱלִיפָלֶט7 Elishama, Beeliada, Eliphelet.
8 וַיִּשְׁמְעוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים כִּי־נִמְשַׁח דָּוִיד לְמֶלֶךְ עַל־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּעֲלוּ כָל־פְּלִשְׁתִּים לְבַקֵּשׁ אֶת־דָּוִיד וַיִּשְׁמַע דָּוִיד וַיֵּצֵא לִפְנֵיהֶם8 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed as king of al Israel, they al invaded to seekhim out. On hearing this, David marched out towards them.
9 וּפְלִשְׁתִּים בָּאוּ וַיִּפְשְׁטוּ בְּעֵמֶק רְפָאִים9 When the Philistines arrived, they deployed in the Val ey of the Rephaim.
10 וַיִּשְׁאַל דָּוִיד בֵּאלֹהִים לֵאמֹר הַאֶעֱלֶה עַל־ [פְּלִשְׁתִּיִּים כ] (פְּלִשְׁתִּים ק) וּנְתַתָּם בְּיָדִי וַיֹּאמֶר לֹו יְהוָה עֲלֵה וּנְתַתִּים בְּיָדֶךָ10 David consulted God and asked, 'Shall I attack the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my power?'Yahweh replied to him, 'Attack! I shal deliver them into your power.'
11 וַיַּעֲלוּ בְּבַעַל־פְּרָצִים וַיַּכֵּם שָׁם דָּוִיד וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד פָּרַץ הָאֱלֹהִים אֶת־אֹויְבַי בְּיָדִי כְּפֶרֶץ מָיִם עַל־כֵּן קָרְאוּ שֵׁם־הַמָּקֹום הַהוּא בַּעַל פְּרָצִים11 Accordingly, they went up to Baal-Perazim and there David defeated them. David said, 'Through meGod has made a breach in my enemies, as though they had been breached by a flood.' This is why the placewas given the name Baal-Perazim.
12 וַיַּעַזְבוּ־שָׁם אֶת־אֱלֹהֵיהֶם וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד וַיִּשָּׂרְפוּ בָּאֵשׁ׃ פ12 They had left their gods behind there, and David ordered them to be burnt.
13 וַיֹּסִיפוּ עֹוד פְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיִּפְשְׁטוּ בָּעֵמֶק13 Again the Philistines deployed in the valley.
14 וַיִּשְׁאַל עֹוד דָּוִיד בֵּאלֹהִים וַיֹּאמֶר לֹו הָאֱלֹהִים לֹא תַעֲלֶה אַחֲרֵיהֶם הָסֵב מֵעֲלֵיהֶם וּבָאתָ לָהֶם מִמּוּל הַבְּכָאִים14 David again consulted God, and God replied, 'Do not attack them from the front; go round andengage them opposite the balsam trees.
15 וִיהִי כְּשָׁמְעֲךָ אֶת־קֹול הַצְּעָדָה בְּרָאשֵׁי הַבְּכָאִים אָז תֵּצֵא בַמִּלְחָמָה כִּי־יָצָא הָאֱלֹהִים לְפָנֶיךָ לְהַכֹּות אֶת־מַחֲנֵה פְלִשְׁתִּים15 When you hear the sound of footsteps in the tops of the balsam trees, launch your attack, for that willbe God going out ahead of you to defeat the Philistine army.'
16 וַיַּעַשׂ דָּוִיד כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּהוּ הָאֱלֹהִים וַיַּכּוּ אֶת־מַחֲנֵה פְלִשְׁתִּים מִגִּבְעֹון וְעַד־גָּזְרָה16 David did as God had ordered, and they beat the Philistine army from Gibeon to Gezer.
17 וַיֵּצֵא שֵׁם־דָּוִיד בְּכָל־הָאֲרָצֹות וַיהוָה נָתַן אֶת־פַּחְדֹּו עַל־כָּל־הַגֹּויִם17 David's fame then spread to every country, and Yahweh made him feared by every nation.
