¹Potom prišly všetky pokolenia Izraelove k Dávidovi do Hebrona a riekly: Hľa, my sme tvoja kosť a tvoje telo.

¹Then came all the tribes of Israel to David to Hebron, and spoke, saying, “Behold, we are your bone and your flesh.

²Už dávno, ešte keď bol Saul kráľom nad nami, ty si vyvodil a dovodil Izraela. A okrem toho ti riekol Hospodin: Ty budeš pásť môj ľud, Izraela, a ty budeš vojvodom nad Izraelom.

²In times past, when Saul was king over us, it was you who led out and brought in Israel. Yahweh said to you, ‘You shall be shepherd of my people Israel, and you shall be prince over Israel.’”

³A tak prišli všetci starší Izraelovi ku kráľovi do Hebrona, a kráľ Dávid učinil s nimi smluvu v Hebrone pred Hospodinom, a potom pomazali Dávida za kráľa nad Izraelom.

³So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before Yahweh; and they anointed David king over Israel.

⁴Tridsať rokov mal Dávid, keď začal kraľovať, a kraľoval štyridsať rokov.

⁴David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

⁵V Hebrone kraľoval nad Júdom sedem rokov a šesť mesiacov a v Jeruzaleme kraľoval tridsaťtri rokov nad celým Izraelom i nad Júdom.

⁵In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

⁶A kráľ i jeho mužovia odišli do Jeruzalema proti Jebuzejovi, ktorý obýval tú zem a ktorý povedal Dávidovi: Nevojdeš sem, iba ak odstrániš slepých a krivých. Lebo vraveli vo svojej ubezpečenosti: Nevojde Dávid sem.

⁶The king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke to David, saying, “Unless you take away the blind and the lame, you shall not come in here”; thinking, “David can’t come in here.”

⁷Ale Dávid zaujal hrad Sion. To je mesto Dávidovo.

⁷Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David.

⁸A Dávid riekol toho dňa: Ktokoľvek zabije niektorého Jebuzeja, srúti ho do výmoliny, aj tých krivých a slepých, ktorých nenávidí duša Dávidova. Preto hovoria: Slepý a krivý nevojde do domu.

⁸David said on that day, “Whoever strikes the Jebusites, let him get up to the watercourse, and strike the lame and the blind, who are hated by David’s soul.” Therefore they say, “The blind and the lame can’t come into the house.”

⁹Potom býval Dávid na tom hrade a nazval ho mestom Dávidovým. A Dávid ho vystavil dokola od Millo až do vnútra.

⁹David lived in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. David built around from Millo and inward.

¹⁰A Dávid vše prospieval a bol väčším a väčším, a Hospodin, Bôh Zástupov, bol s ním.

¹⁰David grew greater and greater; for Yahweh, the God of Armies, was with him.

¹¹A Chíram, kráľ Týru, poslal poslov k Dávidovi a poslal mu aj cedrové drevo i tesárov a kameniarov murovať, a vystavili Dávidovi dom.

¹¹Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons; and they built David a house.

¹²A Dávid poznal, že Hospodin ho ustanovil za kráľa nad Izraelom a že povzniesol jeho kráľovstvo pre svoj ľud Izraela.

¹²David perceived that Yahweh had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel’s sake.

¹³A Dávid si vzal ešte viaceré ženiny i ženy z Jeruzalema, odkedy bol prišiel z Hebrona, a tedy ešte sa narodili Dávidovi viacerí synovia a viaceré dcéry.

¹³David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron; and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.

¹⁴A toto sú mená tých, ktorí sa mu narodili v Jeruzaleme: Šammua, Šobab, Nátan a Šalamún,

¹⁴These are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,

¹⁵a Jibchár, Elišua, Nefeg a Jafia,

¹⁵and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

¹⁶a Elíšama, Eliada a Elípalet.

¹⁶and Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphelet.

¹⁷A keď počuli Filištíni, že pomazali Dávida za kráľa nad Izraelom, vyšli hore všetci Filištíni hľadať Dávida. A Dávid počujúc o tom sišiel do hradu.

¹⁷When the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek David; and David heard of it, and went down to the stronghold.

¹⁸A Filištíni prišli a rozložili sa v doline Refaim.

¹⁸Now the Philistines had come and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

¹⁹Vtedy sa pýtal Dávid Hospodina a povedal: Či mám ísť hore proti Filištínom, či ich vydáš do mojej ruky? A Hospodin riekol Dávidovi: Iď, lebo cele iste dám Filištínov do tvojej ruky.

¹⁹David inquired of Yahweh, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?” Yahweh said to David, “Go up; for I will certainly deliver the Philistines into your hand.”

²⁰A tak prišiel Dávid do Bálperacíma a tam ich porazil Dávid a povedal: Hospodin pretrhol mojich nepriateľov predo mnou, jako keď voda pretrhne breh. Preto nazval meno toho miesta Bál-peracím.

²⁰David came to Baal Perazim, and David struck them there; and he said, “Yahweh has broken my enemies before me, like the breach of waters.” Therefore he called the name of that place Baal Perazim.

²¹A zanechali tam svoje rytiny, a pobral ich Dávid a jeho mužovia.

²¹They left their images there; and David and his men took them away.

²²A ešte znova vyšli Filištíni hore a rozložili sa v doline Refaim.

²²The Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.

²³A keď sa pýtal Dávid Hospodina, riekol: Nepojdeš hore. Obídi ich, aby si sa im dostal od chrbta a prijdeš na nich naproti morušiam.

²³When David inquired of Yahweh, he said, “You shall not go up. Circle around behind them, and attack them over against the mulberry trees.

²⁴A bude, keď počuješ šust krokov po vrcholoch moruší, vtedy sa ponáhľaj, lebo vtedy vyšiel Hospodin pred tebou, aby uderil na tábor Filištínov.

²⁴It shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then you shall stir yourself up; for then Yahweh has gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines.”

²⁵Dávid učinil tak, ako mu prikázal Hospodin, a bil Filištínov od Geby, až ako ideš do Gázera.

²⁵David did so, as Yahweh commanded him, and struck the Philistines from Geba until you come to Gezer.
