2 Samuel 5:9 (NET) New English Translation

1 All the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron saying, "Look, we are your very flesh and blood!
2 In the past, when Saul was our king, you were the real leader in Israel. The LORD said to you, 'You will shepherd my people Israel; you will rule over Israel.'"
3 When all the leaders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, King David made an agreement with them in Hebron before the LORD. They designated David as king over Israel.
4 David was thirty years old when he began to reign and he reigned for forty years.
5 In Hebron he reigned over Judah for seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned for thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.
6 Then the king and his men advanced to Jerusalem against the Jebusites who lived in the land. The Jebusites said to David, "You cannot invade this place! Even the blind and the lame will turn you back, saying, 'David cannot invade this place!'"
7 But David captured the fortress of Zion (that is, the city of David).
8 David said on that day, "Whoever attacks the Jebusites must approach the 'lame' and the 'blind' who are David's enemies by going through the water tunnel." For this reason it is said, "The blind and the lame cannot enter the palace."
9 So David lived in the fortress and called it the City of David. David built all around it, from the terrace inwards.
10 David's power grew steadily, for the LORD God who commands armies was with him.
11 King Hiram of Tyre sent messengers to David, along with cedar logs, carpenters, and stonemasons. They built a palace for David.
12 David realized that the LORD had established him as king over Israel and that he had elevated his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel.
13 David married more concubines and wives from Jerusalem after he arrived from Hebron. Even more sons and daughters were born to David.
14 These are the names of children born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,
16 Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.
17 When the Philistines heard that David had been designated king over Israel, they all went up to search for David. When David heard about it, he went down to the fortress.
18 Now the Philistines had arrived and spread out in the valley of Rephaim.
19 So David asked the LORD, "Should I march up against the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?" The LORD said to David, "March up, for I will indeed hand the Philistines over to you."
20 So David marched against Baal Perazim and defeated them there. Then he said, "The LORD has burst out against my enemies like water bursts out." So he called the name of that place Baal Perazim.
21 The Philistines abandoned their idols there, and David and his men picked them up.
22 The Philistines again came up and spread out in the valley of Rephaim.
23 So David asked the LORD what he should do. This time the LORD said to him, "Don't march straight up. Instead, circle around behind them and come against them opposite the trees.
24 When you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the trees, act decisively. For at that moment the LORD is going before you to strike down the army of the Philistines."
25 David did just as the LORD commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines from Gibeon all the way to Gezer.
1 Then came H935 W-VQY3MP all H3605 NMS the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 to H413 PREP David H1732 MMS unto Hebron H2275 , and spoke H559 W-VQY3MP , saying H559 L-VQFC , Behold H2009 , we H587 PPRO-1MP are thy bone H6106 and thy flesh H1320 .
2 Also H1571 CONJ in time past H865 , when Saul H7586 was H1961 king H4428 NMS over H5921 PREP us , thou H859 PPRO-2MS wast H1961 he that leddest out H3318 and broughtest H935 in Israel H3478 : and the LORD H3068 EDS said H559 W-VQY3MS to thee Thou H859 PPRO-2MS shalt feed H7462 my people H5971 Israel H3478 , and thou H859 PPRO-2FS shalt be H1961 VQY3FS a captain H5057 over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 LMS .
3 So all H3605 NMS the elders H2205 of Israel H3478 came H935 W-VQY3MP to H413 PREP the king H4428 D-NMS to Hebron H2275 ; and king H4428 D-NMS David H1732 MMS made H3772 a league H1285 NFS with them in Hebron H2275 B-EFS before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS : and they anointed H4886 David H1732 MMS king H4428 L-CMS over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 LMS .
4 David H1732 MMS was thirty H7970 MMP years H8141 NFS old H1121 when he began to reign H4427 , and he reigned H4427 forty H705 MMP years H8141 NFS .
5 In Hebron H2275 B-EFS he reigned H4427 over H5921 PREP Judah H3063 seven H7651 MFS years H8141 NFP and six H8337 months H2320 : and in Jerusalem H3389 he reigned H4427 thirty H7970 MMP and three H7969 years H8141 NFS over H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 and Judah H3063 .
6 And the king H4428 D-NMS and his men H376 went H1980 W-VQY3MS to Jerusalem H3389 unto H413 PREP the Jebusites H2983 , the inhabitants H3427 VQPMS of the land H776 D-GFS : which spoke H559 W-VQY3MS unto David H1732 L-NAME , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Except H518 PART thou take away H5493 the blind H5787 and the lame H6455 , thou shalt not H3808 NADV come in H935 VQY3FS hither H2008 ADV : thinking H559 W-VQY3MS , David H1732 L-NAME cannot H3808 ADV come in H935 VQY3MS hither H2008 .
7 Nevertheless David H1732 MMS took H3920 the stronghold H4686 of Zion H6726 : the same H1931 PPRO-3FS is the city H5892 GFS of David H1732 .
8 And David H1732 MMS said H559 W-VQY3MS on that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS , Whosoever H3605 NMS getteth up H5060 to the gutter H6794 , and smiteth H5221 the Jebusites H2983 , and the lame H6455 and the blind H5787 , that are hated H8130 of David H1732 MMS \'s soul H5315 GFS , he shall be chief and captain . Wherefore H5921 PREP they said H559 W-VQY3MS , The blind H5787 and the lame H6455 shall not H3808 NADV come H935 VQY3MS into H413 PREP the house H1004 .
9 So David H1732 MMS dwelt H3427 W-VQY3MS in the fort H4686 , and called H7121 W-VQY3MS it the city H5892 GFS of David H1732 MMS . And David H1732 MMS built H1129 W-VQY3MS round about H5439 ADV from H4480 PREP Millo H4407 and inward H1004 .
10 And David H1732 MMS went on W-VQY3MS , and grew great H1419 W-AMS , and the LORD H3068 W-EDS God H430 CDP of hosts H6635 was with H5973 PREP-3MS him .
11 And Hiram H2438 king H4428 NMS of Tyre H6865 sent H7971 W-VQY3MS messengers H4397 to H413 PREP David H1732 MMS , and cedar H730 trees H6086 , and carpenters H2796 , and masons H2796 : and they built H1129 David H1732 a house H1004 .
12 And David H1732 MMS perceived H3045 W-VQY3MS that H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS had established H3559 him king H4428 L-CMS over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 , and that H3588 CONJ he had exalted H5375 his kingdom H4467 CFS-3MS for his people H5971 Israel H3478 LMS \'s sake H5668 B-NMS .
13 And David H1732 L-NAME took H3947 W-VQY3MS him more H5750 ADV concubines H6370 and wives H802 out of Jerusalem H3389 , after H310 PREP he was come H935 from Hebron H2275 : and there were yet H5750 ADV sons H1121 NMP and daughters H1323 W-CFP born H3205 W-VNY3MP to David H1732 L-NAME .
14 And these H428 W-PMP be the names H8034 of those that were born H3209 unto him in Jerusalem H3389 ; Shammua H8051 , and Shobab H7727 , and Nathan H5416 , and Solomon H8010 ,
15 Ibhar H2984 also , and Elishua H474 , and Nepheg H5298 , and Japhia H3309 ,
16 And Elishama H476 , and Eliada H450 , and Eliphalet H467 .
17 But when the Philistines H6430 heard H8085 that H3588 CONJ they had anointed H4886 David H1732 MMS king H4428 L-CMS over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 , all H3605 CMS the Philistines H6430 TMS came up H5927 to seek H1245 David H1732 MMS ; and David H1732 MMS heard H8085 of it , and went down H3381 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP the hold H4686 .
18 The Philistines H6430 also came H935 VQQ3MP and spread themselves H5203 in the valley H6010 B-CMS of Rephaim H7497 .
19 And David H1732 MMS inquired H7592 W-VQY3MS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Shall I go up H5927 to H413 PREP the Philistines H6430 TMS ? wilt thou deliver H5414 them into mine hand H3027 B-CFS-1MS ? And the LORD H3068 EDS said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP David H1732 MMS , Go up H5927 : for H3588 CONJ I will doubtless deliver H5414 the Philistines H6430 into thine hand H3027 .
20 And David H1732 came H935 W-VQY3MS to Baal H1188 - perazim , and David H1732 MMS smote H5221 W-VHY3MS-3MP them there H8033 ADV , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , The LORD H3068 EDS hath broken forth upon H6555 VQQ3MS mine enemies H341 before H6440 L-CMP me , as the breach H6556 K-NMS of waters H4325 NMD . Therefore H5921 PREP he called H7121 VQQ3MS the name H8034 of that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS place H4725 D-NMS Baal H1188 - perazim .
21 And there H8033 ADV they left H5800 their images H6091 , and David H1732 MMS and his men H376 burned H5375 them .
22 And the Philistines H6430 TMS came up H5927 yet H5750 ADV again H3254 , and spread themselves H5203 in the valley H6010 B-CMS of Rephaim H7497 .
23 And when David H1732 MMS inquired H7592 W-VQY3MS of the LORD H3068 , he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Thou shalt not H3808 NADV go up H5927 ; but fetch a compass H5437 behind H310 them , and come H935 W-VQQ2MS upon them over against H4136 the mulberry trees H1057 .
24 And let it be H1961 W-VQI3MS , when thou hearest H8085 the sound H6963 CMS of a going H6807 in the tops H7218 of the mulberry trees H1057 , that then H227 ADV thou shalt bestir H2782 thyself : for H3588 CONJ then H227 ADV shall the LORD H3068 EDS go out H3318 VQQ3MS before H6440 L-CMP-2MS thee , to smite H5221 L-VHFC the host H4264 of the Philistines H6430 .
25 And David H1732 MMS did H6213 W-VQY3MS so H3651 ADV , as H834 K-RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS had commanded H6680 VPQ3MS-3MS him ; and smote H5221 W-VHY3MS the Philistines H6430 TMS from Geba H1387 until thou come H935 to Gazer H1507 .
