¹Ja Hiiram, Tüürose kuningas, läkitas Taaveti juurde saadikud seedripuudega, samuti müürseppi ja puuseppi temale koda ehitama.

¹Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and masons, and carpenters, to build him a house.

²Taavet mõistis, et Issand oli ta kinnitanud Iisraeli kuningaks, et ta kuningriik oli ülendatud tema Iisraeli rahva pärast.

²David perceived that Yahweh had established him king over Israel; for his kingdom was exalted on high, for his people Israel’s sake.

³Jeruusalemmas võttis Taavet veelgi naisi, ja Taavetile sündis veelgi poegi ja tütreid.

³David took more wives at Jerusalem; and David became the father of more sons and daughters.

⁴Ja need olid nende laste nimed, kes temale Jeruusalemmas sündisid: Sammua, Soobab, Naatan ja Saalomon,

⁴These are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon,

⁵Jibhar, Elisua ja Elpelet,

⁵and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,

⁶Noga, Nefeg ja Jaafia,

⁶and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

⁷Elisama, Beeljada ja Elifelet.

⁷and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

⁸Aga kui vilistid kuulsid, et Taavet oli võitud kogu Iisraeli kuningaks, siis läksid kõik vilistid Taavetit otsima; kui Taavet sellest kuulis, siis ta läks neile vastu.

⁸When 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.

⁹Ja vilistid tulid ning tungisid kõikjale Refaimi orgu.

⁹Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the valley of Rephaim.

¹⁰Taavet küsis siis Jumalalt, öeldes: 'Kas ma pean vilistitele vastu minema? Kas sa annad nad minu kätte?' Ja Issand ütles temale: 'Mine, ja ma annan nad sinu kätte!'

¹⁰David inquired of God, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?” Yahweh said to him, “Go up; for I will deliver them into your hand.”

¹¹Ja kui nad läksid üles Baal-Peratsimi, siis Taavet lõi neid seal. Ja Taavet ütles: 'Jumal on mu vaenlased minu käega murdnud, otsekui oleks vesi läbi murdnud!' Seepärast pandi sellele paigale nimeks Baal-Peratsim.

¹¹So they came up to Baal Perazim, and David struck them there; and David said, God has broken my enemies by my hand, like the breach of waters. Therefore they called the name of that place Baal Perazim.

¹²Nad jätsid sinna oma jumalad ja Taavet käskis need tulega ära põletada.

¹²They left their gods there; and David gave commandment, and they were burned with fire.

¹³Ja vilistid tulid uuesti ning tungisid sinna orgu.

¹³The Philistines yet again made a raid in the valley.

¹⁴Ja Taavet küsis taas Jumalalt, ja Jumal ütles talle: 'Ära mine neile järele, vaid mine neist mööda ja tule neile kallale baakapõõsaste poolt.

¹⁴David inquired again of God; and God said to him, “You shall not go up after them. Turn away from them, and come on them over against the mulberry trees.

¹⁵Kui sa kuuled baakapõõsaste ladvus otsekui astumise kahinat, siis mine sõdima, sest Jumal on su ees välja läinud vilistite leeri lööma!'

¹⁵It shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then you shall go out to battle; for God has gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines.”

¹⁶Ja Taavet tegi nõnda, nagu Jumal teda käskis, ja nad lõid vilistite leeri Gibeonist kuni Geserini.

¹⁶David did as God commanded him: and they struck the army of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gezer.

¹⁷Taavet sai kuulsaks kõigis maades, ja Issand pani kõigi rahvaste peale hirmu tema ees.

¹⁷The fame of David went out into all lands; and Yahweh brought the fear of him on all nations.
