2 Allerede før i Tiden, da Saul var Konge over os, var det dig,som førte Israel ud i Kamp og hjem igen; og HERREN sagde til dig: Du skal vogte mit Folk Israel og være Hersker over Israel!"
2 Previously, when Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and in. And the Lord said to you, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be a ruler over Israel.’”
3 Og alle Israels Ældste kom til Kongen i Hebron, og Kong David sluttede i Hebron Pagt med dem for HERRENs Åsyn, og de salvede David til Konge over Israel.
3 So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and King David made a covenant with them before the Lord at Hebron; then they anointed David king over Israel.
6 Derpå drog Kongen med sine Mænd til Jerusalem mod Jebusiterne, som boede deri Landet. Man sagde til Kongen: "Her kan du ikke trænge ind, thi blinde og lamme vil slå dig tilbage!" Dermed vilde de sige: "David kommer ikke herind!"
6 Now the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, and they said to David, “You shall not come in here, but the blind and lame will turn you away”; thinking, “David cannot enter here.”
8 På den Dag sagde David: "Enhver, som trænger frem til Vandledningen og slår en Jebusit, de halte og blinde, som Davids Sjæl hader, skal være Øverste og Hærfører". Derfor siger man: "En blind og en lam kommer ikke ind i Huset!"
8 David said on that day, “Whoever would strike the Jebusites, let him reach the lame and the blind, who are hated by David’s soul, through the water tunnel.” Therefore they say, “The blind or the lame shall not come into the house.”
17 Men da Filisterne hørte, at David var salvet til Konge over Israel, rykkede de alle ud for at søge efter ham. Ved Efterretningen herom drog David ned til Klippeborgen,
17 When the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to seek out David; and when David heard of it, he went down to the stronghold.
19 David rådspurgte da HERREN: "Skal jeg drage op mod Filisterne? Vil du give dem i min Hånd?" Og HERREN svarede David: "Drag op, thi jeg vil give Filisterne i din Hånd!"
19 Then David inquired of the Lord, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You give them into my hand?” And the Lord said to David, “Go up, for I will certainly give the Philistines into your hand.”
20 Så drog David til Ba'al-Perazim, og der slog han dem. Da sagde han: "HERREN har brudt igennem mine Fjender foran mig, som Vand bryder igennem!" Derfor kalder man Stedet Ba'al-Perazim.
20 So David came to Baal-perazim and defeated them there; and he said, “The Lord has broken through my enemies before me like the breakthrough of waters.” Therefore he named that place Baal-perazim.
24 Når du da hører Lyden af Skridt i Bakabuskenes Toppe, skal du skynde dig, thi så er HERREN draget ud foran dig for at slå Filisternes Hær!"
24 It shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the balsam trees, then you shall act promptly, for then the Lord will have gone out before you to strike the army of the Philistines.”
