ΠΑΡΑΛΕΙΠΟΜΕΝΩΝ Α´ - 1 Cronache - Chronicles I 14

GREEK BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Ο δε Χειραμ βασιλευς της Τυρου απεστειλε πρεσβεις προς τον Δαβιδ, και ξυλα κεδρινα και κτιστας και ξυλουργους, δια να οικοδομησωσιν οικον εις αυτον.	1 Hiram, king of Tyre, sent envoys to David along with masons and carpenters, and cedar wood to build him a house.
2 Και εγνωρισεν ο Δαβιδ, οτι ο Κυριος κατεστησεν αυτον βασιλεα επι τον Ισραηλ, διοτι η βασιλεια αυτου υψωθη εις υψος, δια τον λαον αυτου Ισραηλ.	2 David now understood that the LORD had truly confirmed him as king over Israel, for his kingdom was greatly exalted for the sake of his people Israel.
3 Και ελαβεν ο Δαβιδ ετι γυναικας εν Ιερουσαλημ? και εγεννησεν ετι ο Δαβιδ υιους και θυγατερας.	3 David took other wives in Jerusalem and became the father of more sons and daughters.
4 Ταυτα δε ειναι τα ονοματα των τεκνων, τα οποια εγεννηθησαν εις αυτον εν Ιερουσαλημ? Σαμμουα και Σωβαβ, Ναθαν και Σολομων	4 These are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
5 και Ιεβαρ και Ελισουα και Ελφαλετ	5 Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,
6 και Νωγα και Νεφεγ και Ιαφια	6 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,
7 και Ελισαμα και Βεελιαδα και Ελιφαλετ.	7 Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
8 Ακουσαντες δε οι Φιλισταιοι οτι ο Δαβιδ εχρισθη βασιλευς επι παντα τον Ισραηλ, ανεβησαν παντες οι Φιλισταιοι να ζητησωσι τον Δαβιδ. Και ο Δαβιδ ακουσας, εξηλθεν εναντιον αυτων.	8 When the Philistines had heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, they went up in unison to seek him out. But when David heard of this, he marched out against them.
9 Και ηλθον οι Φιλισταιοι και διεχυθησαν εις την κοιλαδα Ραφαειμ.	9 Meanwhile the Philistines had come and raided the valley of Rephaim.
10 Και ηρωτησεν ο Δαβιδ τον Θεον, λεγων, να αναβω εναντιον των Φιλισταιων; και θελεις παραδωσει συ αυτους εις την χειρα μου; Και ο Κυριος απεκριθη προς αυτον, Αναβα? διοτι θελω παραδωσει αυτους εις την χειρα σου.	10 David inquired of God, "Shall I advance against the Philistines, and will you deliver them into my power?" The LORD answered him, "Advance, for I will deliver them into your power."
11 Και ανεβησαν εις Βααλ-φερασειμ? και εκει επαταξεν αυτους ο Δαβιδ. Τοτε ειπεν ο Δαβιδ, Ο Θεος διεκοψε τους εχθρους μου δια χειρος μου, καθως διακοπτονται τα υδατα? δια τουτο εκαλεσαν το ονομα του τοπου εκεινου Βααλ-φερασειμ.	11 They advanced, therefore, to Baal-perazim, and David defeated them there. Then David said, "God has used me to break through my enemies just as water breaks through a dam." Therefore that place was called Baal-perazim.
12 Και εκει κατελιπον τους θεους αυτων? και ο Δαβιδ προσεταξε και κατεκαυθησαν εν πυρι.	12 The Philistines had left their gods there, and David ordered them to be burnt.
13 Οι δε Φιλισταιοι και παλιν διεχυθησαν εις την κοιλαδα?	13 Once again the Philistines raided the valley,
14 οθεν παλιν ηρωτησεν ο Δαβιδ τον Θεον? και ο Θεος ειπε προς αυτον, Μη αναβης οπισω αυτων? αλλα στρεψον απ' αυτων και υπαγε επ' αυτους απεναντι των συκαμινων.	14 and again David inquired of God. But God answered him: "Do not try to pursue them, but go around them and come upon them from the direction of the mastic trees.
15 Και οταν ακουσης θορυβον διαβασεως επι των κορυφων των συκαμινων, τοτε θελεις εξελθει εις την μαχην? διοτι ο Θεος θελει εξελθει εμπροσθεν σου, δια να παταξη το στρατοπεδον των Φιλισταιων.	15 When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mastic trees, then go forth to battle, for God has already gone before you to strike the army of the Philistines."
16 Και εκαμεν ο Δαβιδ καθως προσεταξεν εις αυτον ο Θεος? και επαταξαν το στρατοπεδον των Φιλισταιων απο Γαβαων εως Γεζερ.	16 David did as God commanded him, and they routed the Philistine army from Gibeon to Gezer.
17 Και το ονομα του Δαβιδ εξηλθεν εις παντας τους τοπους? και ο Κυριος επεφερε τον φοβον αυτου επι παντα τα εθνη.	17 Thus David's fame was spread abroad through every land, and the LORD made all the nations fear him.
