1Then all Israel came together to David at Hebron and said, “Here we are, your own flesh and blood.
1ΚΑΙ ἦλθε πᾶς Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς Δαυὶδ ἐν Χεβρὼν λέγοντες· ἰδοὺ ὀστᾶ σου καὶ σάρκες σου ἡμεῖς·
2Even in times past, while Saul was king, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them back. And the LORD your God said, ‘You will shepherd My people Israel, and you will be ruler over them.’”
2καὶ ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην ὄντος Σαοὺλ βασιλέως, σὺ ἦσθα ὁ ἐξάγων καὶ εἰσάγων τὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ εἶπεν Ἰσραὴλ Κύριός σοι· σὺ ποιμανεῖς τὸν λαόν μου τὸν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ σὺ ἔσῃ εἰς ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ.
3So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, where David made a covenant with them before the LORD. And they anointed him king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD through Samuel.
3καὶ ἦλθον πάντες πρεσβύτεροι Ἰσραὴλ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰς Χεβρών, καὶ διέθετο αὐτοῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυὶδ διαθήκην ἐν Χεβρὼν ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ ἔχρισαν τὸν Δαυὶδ εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ἰσραὴλ κατὰ τὸν λόγον Κυρίου, διὰ χειρὸς Σαμουήλ.
4Then David and all the Israelites marched to Jerusalem (that is, Jebus), where the Jebusites inhabited the land.
4Καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἄνδρες αὐτοῦ εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ (αὕτη Ἰεβούς), καὶ ἐκεῖ οἱ Ἰεβουσαῖοι οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν γῆν εἶπον τῷ Δαυίδ·
5The people of Jebus said to David, “You will never get in here.” Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion (that is, the City of David).
5οὐκ εἰσελεύσῃ ὧδε. καὶ προκατελάβετο τὴν περιοχὴν Σιὼν (αὕτη ἡ πόλις Δαυίδ).
6Now David had said, “Whoever is the first to strike down a Jebusite will become chief commander.” And Joab son of Zeruiah went up first, and he became the chief.
6καὶ εἶπε Δαυίδ· πᾶς τύπτων Ἰεβουσαῖον ἐν πρώτοις καὶ ἔσται εἰς ἄρχοντα καὶ εἰς στρατηγόν· καὶ ἀνέβη ἐπ᾿ αὐτὴν ἐν πρώτοις Ἰωὰβ υἱὸς Σαρουΐα καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς ἄρχοντα.
7So David took up residence in the fortress; that is why it was called the City of David.
7καὶ ἐκάθισε Δαυὶδ ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὴν Πόλιν Δαυίδ·
8He built up the city around it, from the supporting terraces to the surrounding wall, while Joab restored the rest of the city.
8καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε τὴν πόλιν κύκλῳ· καὶ ἐπολέμησε καὶ ἔλαβε τὴν πόλιν.
9And David became greater and greater, for the LORD of Hosts was with him.
9καὶ ἐπορεύετο Δαυὶδ πορευόμενος καὶ μεγαλυνόμενος, καὶ Κύριος παντοκράτωρ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ.
10Now these were the chiefs of David’s mighty men, who, together with all Israel, bolstered and strengthened his kingdom, according to the word of the LORD concerning Israel.
10Καὶ οὗτοι οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν δυνατῶν, οἳ ἦσαν τῷ Δαυίδ, οἱ κατισχύοντες μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ μετὰ παντὸς Ἰσραὴλ τοῦ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτὸν κατὰ τὸν λόγον Κυρίου ἐπὶ Ἰσραήλ·
11This is the list of David’s mighty men: Jashobeam son of Hachmoni was chief of the officers; he wielded his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed at one time.
11καὶ οὗτος ὁ ἀριθμὸς τῶν δυνατῶν τοῦ Δαυίδ· Ἰεσεβάαλ υἱὸς Ἀχαμανὶ πρῶτος τῶν τριάκοντα· οὗτος ἐσπάσατο τὴν ρομφαίαν αὐτοῦ ἅπαξ ἐπὶ τριακοσίους τραυματίας ἐν καιρῷ ἑνί.
12Next in command was Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men.
12καὶ μετ᾿ αὐτὸν Ἐλεάζαρ υἱὸς Δωδαΐ ὁ Ἀχωχί· οὗτος ἦν ἐν τοῖς τρισὶ δυνατοῖς.
13He was with David at Pas-dammim when the Philistines gathered there for battle. At the place with a field full of barley, the troops fled from the Philistines.
13οὗτος ἦν μετὰ Δαυὶδ ἐν Φασοδομίν, καὶ οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι συνήχθησαν ἐκεῖ εἰς πόλεμον, καὶ ἦν μερὶς τοῦ ἀγροῦ πλήρης κριθῶν, καὶ ὁ λαὸς ἔφυγεν ἀπὸ προσώπου ἀλλοφύλων·
14But Eleazar and David stationed themselves in the middle of the field and defended it. They struck down the Philistines, and the LORD brought about a great victory.
14καὶ ἔστη ἐν μέσῳ τῆς μερίδος καὶ ἔσωσεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἐπάταξε τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους, καὶ ἐποίησε Κύριος σωτηρίαν μεγάλην.
15Three of the thirty chief men went down to David, to the rock at the cave of Adullam, while a company of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim.
15καὶ κατέβησαν τρεῖς ἐκ τῶν τριάκοντα ἀρχόντων εἰς τὴν πέτραν πρὸς Δαυὶδ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον Ὀδολλάμ, καὶ παρεμβολὴ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι τῶν γιγάντων.
16At that time David was in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was at Bethlehem.
16καὶ Δαυὶδ τότε ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ, καὶ τὸ σύστημα τῶν ἀλλοφύλων τότε ἐν Βηθλεέμ.
17David longed for water and said, “Oh, that someone would get me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!”
17καὶ ἐπεθύμησε Δαυὶδ καὶ εἶπε· τίς ποτιεῖ με ὕδωρ ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου Βηθλεὲμ τοῦ ἐν τῇ πύλῃ;
18So the Three broke through the Philistine camp, drew water from the well at the gate of Bethlehem, and brought it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured it out to the LORD,
18καὶ διέρρηξαν οἱ τρεῖς τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ὑδρεύσαντο ὕδωρ ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου τοῦ ἐν Βηθλεέμ, ὃς ἦν ἐν τῇ πύλῃ, καὶ ἔλαβον καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς Δαυίδ, καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησε Δαυὶδ τοῦ πιεῖν αὐτὸ καὶ ἔσπεισεν αὐτὸ τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ εἶπεν·
19saying, “Far be it from me, my God, to do this! How can I drink the blood of these men who risked their lives?” Because they had brought it at the risk of their lives, David refused to drink it. Such were the exploits of the three mighty men.
19ἵλεώς μου ὁ Θεὸς τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ ρῆμα τοῦτο, εἰ αἷμα ἀνδρῶν τούτων πίομαι ἐν ψυχαῖς αὐτῶν; ὅτι ἐν ψυχαῖς αὐτῶν ἤνεγκαν αὐτό· καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο πιεῖν αὐτό. ταῦτα ἐποίησαν οἱ τρεῖς δυνατοί.
20Now Abishai, the brother of Joab, was chief of the Three, and he lifted his spear against three hundred men, killed them, and won a name along with the Three.
20καὶ Ἀβεσαὰ ἀδελφὸς Ἰωάβ, οὗτος ἦν ἄρχων τῶν τριῶν, οὗτος ἐσπάσατο τὴν ρομφαίαν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τριακοσίους τραυματίας ἐν καιρῷ ἑνί, καὶ οὗτος ἦν ὀνομαστὸς ἐν τοῖς τρισίν,
21He was doubly honored above the Three, and he became their commander, even though he was not included among the Three.
21ἀπὸ τῶν τριῶν ὑπὲρ τοὺς δύο ἔνδοξος, καὶ ἦν αὐτοῖς εἰς ἄρχοντα καὶ ἕως τῶν τριῶν οὐκ ἤρχετο.
22And Benaiah son of Jehoiada was a man of valor from Kabzeel, a man of many exploits. He struck down two champions of Moab, and on a snowy day he went down into a pit and killed a lion.
22καὶ Βαναίας υἱὸς Ἰωδαὲ υἱὸς ἀνδρὸς δυνατοῦ, πολλὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ ὑπὲρ Καβασαήλ· οὗτος ἐπάταξε τοὺς δύο ἀριὴλ Μωὰβ καὶ οὗτος κατέβη καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸν λέοντα ἐν τῷ λάκκῳ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ χιόνος·
23He also killed an Egyptian, a huge man five cubits tall. Although the Egyptian had a spear like a weaver’s beam in his hand, Benaiah went against him with a club, snatched the spear from his hand, and killed the Egyptian with his own spear.
23καὶ οὗτος ἐπάταξε τὸν ἄνδρα τὸν Αἰγύπτιον, ἄνδρα ὁρατὸν πεντάπηχυν, καὶ ἐν χειρὶ τοῦ Αἰγυπτίου δόρυ ὡς ἀντίον ὑφαινόντων, καὶ κατέβη ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν Βαναίας ἐν ράβδῳ καὶ ἀφείλετο ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ Αἰγυπτίου τὸ δόρυ καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ δόρατι αὐτοῦ.
24These were the exploits of Benaiah son of Jehoiada, who won a name alongside the three mighty men.
24ταῦτα ἐποίησε Βαναίας υἱὸς Ἰωδαέ, καὶ τούτῳ ὄνομα ἐν τοῖς τρισὶ τοῖς δυνατοῖς·
25He was most honored among the Thirty, but he did not become one of the Three. And David appointed him over his guard.
25ὑπὲρ τοὺς τριάκοντα ἦν ἔνδοξος οὗτος καὶ πρὸς τοὺς τρεῖς οὐκ ἤρχετο· καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτὸν Δαυὶδ ἐπὶ τὴν πατριὰν αὐτοῦ.
