14 At si Hiram na hari sa Tiro ay nagsugo ng mga sugo kay David, at nagpadala ng mga puno ng sedro, at mga mananabas ng bato, at mga anluwagi, upang ipagtayo siya ng bahay.

At nahalata ni David na itinatag siyang hari ng Panginoon sa Israel; sapagka't ang kaniyang kaharian ay itinaas ng mataas, dahil sa kaniyang bayang Israel.

At si David ay kumuha pa ng mga asawa sa Jerusalem: at si David ay nagkaanak pa ng mga lalake at mga babae.

At ito ang mga pangalan ng mga naging anak niya sa Jerusalem: si Smua, at si Sobab, si Nathan, at si Salomon.

At si Ibhar, at si Elisua, at si Elphelet;

At si Noga, at si Nepheg, at si Japhias;

At si Elisama, at si Beeliada, at si Eliphelet.

At nang mabalitaan ng mga Filisteo na si David ay pinahiran ng langis na maging hari sa buong Israel, ay nagsiahon ang lahat ng Filisteo upang hanapin si David: at nabalitaan ni David, at nilabas sila.

Ang mga Filisteo nga ay nagsidating at nanganamsam sa libis ng Raphaim.

10 At si David ay sumangguni sa Dios, na nagsasabi, Aahon ba ako laban sa mga Filisteo? at iyo bang ibibigay sila sa aking kamay? At sinabi ng Panginoon sa kaniya, Umahon ka: sapagka't aking ibibigay sila sa iyong kamay.

11 Sa gayo'y nagsiahon sila sa Baal-perasim, at sinaktan sila ni David doon; at sinabi ni David, Nilansag ng Dios ang aking mga kaaway na gaya ng baha ng tubig. Kaya't kanilang tinawag ang pangalan ng dakong yaon na Baal-perasim.

12 At kanilang iniwan doon ang kanilang mga dios; at nagutos si David, at sinunog sa apoy ang mga yaon.

13 At nanganamsam pa uli ang mga Filisteo sa libis.

14 At si David ay sumangguni uli sa Dios; at sinabi ng Dios sa kaniya, Huwag kang aahong kasunod nila; lihisan mo sila, at pumaroon ka sa kanila sa tapat ng mga puno ng morales.

15 At mangyayari, na pagka iyong narinig ang hugong ng lakad sa mga dulo ng mga puno ng morales, na ikaw nga ay lalabas sa pakikipagbaka: sapagka't ang Dios ay yumaon sa unahan mo upang saktan ang hukbo ng mga Filisteo.

16 At ginawa ni David kung ano ang iniutos sa kaniya ng Dios: at kanilang sinaktan ang hukbo ng mga Filisteo mula sa Gabaon hanggang sa Gezer.

17 At ang kabantugan ni David ay lumaganap sa lahat ng lupain; at sinidlan ng Panginoon ng takot sa kaniya ang lahat na bansa.

David’s Wives and Children

14 And Hiram, king of Tyre, sent messengers to David and cedar trees, masons,[a] and carpenters[b] to build a house for him. And David knew that Yahweh had established him as king over Israel and that his kingdom was highly exalted for the sake of his people Israel. And David took more wives in Jerusalem, and David fathered more sons and daughters. Now these are the names of the children who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon, Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet, Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia, Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

David Defeats the Philistines

When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed as king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to search for David. But David heard and went out from before them. Now the Philistines came and carried out a raid in the Valley of Rephaim. 10 Then David inquired of God, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you put them into my hand?” And Yahweh said to him, “Go up. I will put them into your hand.” 11 And he went up to Baal-Perazim, and David struck them there. And David said, “God has burst out against my enemies by my hand like waters burst out.” Therefore they will call the name of this place Baal-Perazim. 12 And they abandoned their gods there. And David commanded, and they were burnt with fire. 13 Then the Philistines carried out another raid[c] in the valley. 14 Then David inquired again of God. And God said to him, “You shall not go up after them. Go around from before them and come against them the opposite way of the balsam trees. 15 And it shall be that when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, then go out into battle, for God goes out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.” 16 And David did as God commanded him, and they struck the camp of the Philistines from Gibeon to Gezer. 17 And the fame of David went out through all the lands. And Yahweh put the fear of him upon all the nations.

14 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and timber of cedars, with masons and carpenters, to build him an house.

And David perceived that the Lord had confirmed him king over Israel, for his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of his people Israel.

And David took more wives at Jerusalem: and David begat more sons and daughters.

Now these are the names of his children which he had in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,

And Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpalet,

And Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

And Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphalet.

And when the Philistines heard that David was anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David. And David heard of it, and went out against them.

And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

10 And David enquired of God, saying, Shall I go up against the Philistines? And wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the Lord said unto him, Go up; for I will deliver them into thine hand.

11 So they came up to Baalperazim; and David smote them there. Then David said, God hath broken in upon mine enemies by mine hand like the breaking forth of waters: therefore they called the name of that place Baalperazim.

12 And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire.

13 And the Philistines yet again spread themselves abroad in the valley.

14 Therefore David enquired again of God; and God said unto him, Go not up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.

15 And it shall be, when thou shalt hear a sound of going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou shalt go out to battle: for God is gone forth before thee to smite the host of the Philistines.

16 David therefore did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer.

17 And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the Lord brought the fear of him upon all nations.
