BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Jiram, rey de Tiro, envió a David mensajeros y maderas de cedro, y también albañiles y carpinteros, para edificarle una casa.	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.
2 Y conoció David que Yahveh le había confirmado como rey de Israel, pues había ensalzado su realeza por amor a Israel su pueblo.	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.
3 Tomó David otras mujeres en Jerusalén y engendró mas hijos e hijas.	3 Also, David took other wives in Jerusalem. And he conceived sons and daughters.
4 Estos son los nombres de los que tuvo en Jerusalén: Sammúa, Sobab, Natán, Salomón,	4 And these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab, Nathan and Solomon,
5 Yibjar, Elisúa, Elpálet,	5 Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,
6 Nógah, Néfeg, Yafía,	6 as well as Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,
7 Elisamá, Baalyadá y Elifélet.	7 Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
8 Cuando los filisteos oyeron que David había sido ungido rey sobre todo Israel, subieron todos en su busca. Lo supo David y les salió al paso.	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.
9 Llegaron los filisteos y se desplegaron por el valle de Refaím.	9 Now the Philistines, arriving, spread out in the Valley of the Rephaim.
10 Consultó David a Dios, diciendo: «¿Debo subir contra los filisteos? ¿Los entregarás en mis manos?» Yahveh le respondió: «Sube, pues yo los entregaré en tu mano».	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.”
11 Y subieron a Baal Perasim, donde David los derrotó. Dijo entonces David: «Dios ha abierto brecha entre mis enemigos por mi mano, como una brecha de aguas». Por eso se llamó a aquel lugar Baal Perasim.	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.
12 Abandonaron allí a sus ídolos, y dijo David: «Arrojadlos al fuego».	12 And they left behind their gods in that place, and so David ordered them to be burned.
13 Otra vez invadieron los filisteos el valle,	13 And then, at another time, the Philistines invaded, and they spread out in the valley.
14 y David volvió a consultar a Dios, y Dios le contestó: «No subas contra ellos: da un rodeo y atácalos frente a las balsameras.	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.
15 Y cuando oigas el ruido de pasos en la copa de las balsameras, saldrás a la batalla, porque Dios sale delante de ti para derrotar el campamento de los filisteos».	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.”
16 Hizo David como le había mandado Dios, y derrotaron al campamento de los filisteos desde Gabaón hasta Guézer.	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.
17 La fama de David se extendió por todas las regiones, pues Yahveh le hizo temible a todas las naciones.	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.
