1 Cronache 14
La Nuova Diodati
14 Hiram, re di Tiro, inviò a Davide messaggeri, legname di cedro, muratori e falegnami per costruirgli una casa.
2 Allora Davide riconobbe che l'Eterno lo aveva stabilito come re d'Israele, perché il suo regno era grandemente esaltato a motivo del suo popolo Israele.
3 Davide prese altre mogli in Gerusalemme, e generò figli e figlie.
4 Questi sono i nomi dei figli che gli nacquero in Gerusalemme: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Salomone,
5 Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,
6 Nogah, Nefegh, Jafia.
7 Elishama, Beeliada ed Elifelet.
8 Quando i Filistei vennero a sapere che Davide era stato unto re di tutto Israele, salirono tutti in cerca di Davide. Appena lo seppe, Davide uscí loro incontro.
9 I Filistei giunsero e si sparpagliarono per la valle dei Refaim.
10 Allora Davide consultò Dio, dicendo: «Devo io salire contro i Filistei? Me li darai tu nelle mani?». L'Eterno gli rispose: «Sali, e io li darò nelle tue mani».
11 Essi salirono a Baal-Peratsim, dove Davide li sconfisse e disse: «DIO ha aperto per mano mia un varco tra i miei nemici, come un varco aperto dalle acque». Per questo misero a quel luogo il nome di Baal-Peratsim.
12 I Filistei abbandonarono là i loro dèi, e Davide ordinò che fossero bruciati nel fuoco.
13 In seguito i Filistei tornarono a sparpagliarsi per la valle.
14 Davide consultò di nuovo DIO, e DIO gli disse: «Non salire dietro di loro ma aggirali alle spalle e piomba su di loro di fronte ai balsami.
15 Quando udrai un rumore di passi sulle cime dei balsami, lanciati subito all'attacco, perché DIO uscirà davanti a te per sconfiggere l'esercito dei Filistei».
16 Davide fece come DIO gli aveva comandato, ed essi sconfissero l'esercito dei Filistei da Gabaon fino a Ghezer.
17 Cosí la fama di Davide si sparse per tutti i paesi, e l'Eterno fece venire il terrore di lui su tutte le nazioni.
1 Chronicles 14
Revised Geneva Translation
14 Then Hiram, the king of Tyre, sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, with masons and carpenters to build himself a house.
2 Therefore, David knew that the LORD had confirmed him king over Israel, and that his kingdom was lifted up on high, because of His people Israel.
3 Also, David took more wives at Jerusalem. And David begat more sons and daughters.
4 And these are the names of the children whom he had at Jerusalem: Shammua and Shobab, Nathan and Solomon
5 and Ibhar and Elishua and Elpelet
6 and Nogah and Nepheg and Japhia
7 and Elishama and Beeliada and Eliphelet.
8 But when the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David. And when David heard, he went out against them.
9 And the Philistines came and spread themselves out in the Valley of Rephaim.
10 Then David asked counsel at God, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? And will you deliver them into my hand?” And the LORD said to him, “Go up. For I will deliver them into your hand.”
11 So they came up to Baal Perazim; and David struck them there. And David said, “God has divided my enemies with my hand, as waters are divided.” Therefore, they called the name of that place Baal Perazim.
12 And they had left their gods there. And David said, “Let them be burnt with fire.”
13 Again, the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley.
14 And when David again asked counsel at God, God said to him, “You shall not go up after them. But turn away from them, so that you may come upon them opposite the mulberry trees.
15 “And when you hear the noise of one going in the tops of the mulberry trees, then go out to battle. For God has gone forth before you, to strike the army of the Philistines.”
16 So David did as God had Commanded him. And they struck the army of the Philistines, from Gibeon to Gezer.
17 And the fame of David went out into all lands. And the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.
1 Chronicles 14
New International Version
David’s House and Family(A)
14 Now Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, along with cedar logs,(B) stonemasons and carpenters to build a palace for him. 2 And David knew that the Lord had established him as king over Israel and that his kingdom had been highly exalted(C) for the sake of his people Israel.
3 In Jerusalem David took more wives and became the father of more sons(D) and daughters. 4 These are the names of the children born to him there:(E) Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon, 5 Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet, 6 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia, 7 Elishama, Beeliada[a] and Eliphelet.
David Defeats the Philistines(F)
8 When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel,(G) they went up in full force to search for him, but David heard about it and went out to meet them. 9 Now the Philistines had come and raided the Valley(H) of Rephaim; 10 so David inquired of God: “Shall I go and attack the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hands?”
The Lord answered him, “Go, I will deliver them into your hands.”
11 So David and his men went up to Baal Perazim,(I) and there he defeated them. He said, “As waters break out, God has broken out against my enemies by my hand.” So that place was called Baal Perazim.[b] 12 The Philistines had abandoned their gods there, and David gave orders to burn(J) them in the fire.(K)
13 Once more the Philistines raided the valley;(L) 14 so David inquired of God again, and God answered him, “Do not go directly after them, but circle around them and attack them in front of the poplar trees. 15 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the poplar trees, move out to battle, because that will mean God has gone out in front of you to strike the Philistine army.” 16 So David did as God commanded him, and they struck down the Philistine army, all the way from Gibeon(M) to Gezer.(N)
17 So David’s fame(O) spread throughout every land, and the Lord made all the nations fear(P) him.
