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

¹A Chíram, kráľ Týru, poslal poslov k Dávidovi pošlúc mu aj cedrové drevo i murárov i tesárov, aby mu vystavili dom.

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

²A Dávid poznal, že ho ustanovil Hospodin za kráľa nad Izraelom, lebo jeho kráľovstvo bolo vysoko povznesené pre jeho ľud Izraela.

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

³A Dávid si vzal ešte viaceré ženy v Jeruzaleme a Dávid splodil ešte viacero synov a dcér.

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

⁴A toto sú mená tých narodených, ktorých mal v Jeruzaleme: Šammua, Šobáb, Nátan a Šalamún,

⁵and Ibhar, and Elishua, and Elpelet,

⁵Jibchar, Elišua a Elpálet,

⁶and Nogah, and Nepheg, and Japhia,

⁶Noga, Nefeg a Jafia,

⁷and Elishama, and Beeliada, and Eliphelet.

⁷Elišama, Béljada a Elifálet.

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.

⁸A keď počuli Filištíni, že je Dávid pomazaný za kráľa nad celým Izraelom, vyšli hore všetci Filištíni hľadať Dávida. A Dávid počujúc o tom vyšiel oproti nim.

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

⁹A Filištíni prišli a rozprestreli sa v doline Refaim.

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.”

¹⁰Vtedy sa pýtal Dávid Boha a riekol: Či mám ísť hore proti Filištínom, a či ich dáš do mojej ruky? A Hospodin mu riekol: Iď, a dám ich do tvojej ruky.

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.

¹¹A tak išli hore do Bál-perácim, a tam ich porazil Dávid. A Dávid riekol: Bôh pretrhol mojich nepriateľov mojou rukou, jako keď voda pretrhne brehy. Preto nazvali meno toho miesta Bál-perácim.

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

¹²A zanechali tam svojich bohov. A Dávid povedal, aby ich spálili, a tak ich spálili ohňom.

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

¹³A Filištíni sa znova sobrali a rozprestreli sa v tej doline.

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.

¹⁴A Dávid sa opäť pýtal Boha. A Bôh mu povedal: Nepôjdeš hore za nimi; obráť sa preč od nich a prijdeš na nich naproti morušiam.

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.”

¹⁵A bude, keď počuješ šust krokov po vrcholcoch moruší, vtedy vyjdeš do boja, lebo vtedy vyšiel Bôh pred tebou, aby porazil tábor Filištínov.

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

¹⁶A Dávid učinil tak, ako mu prikázal Bôh, a porážali tábor Filištínov od Gibeona až po Gázer.

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

¹⁷A povesť Dávidova sa rozniesla do všetkých zemí, a Hospodin dal svoj strach na všetky národy.
