Berean Standard Bible
1ΚΑΙ οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι Δαυὶδ οἱ ἔσχατοι· Πιστὸς Δαυὶδ υἱὸς Ἰεσσαί, καὶ πιστὸς ἀνήρ, ὃν ἀνέστησε Κύριος ἐπὶ χριστὸν Θεοῦ Ἰακώβ, καὶ εὐπρεπεῖς ψαλμοὶ Ἰσραήλ.
1These are the last words of David: “The oracle of David son of Jesse, the oracle of the man raised on high, the one anointed by the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel:
2πνεῦμα Κυρίου ἐλάλησεν ἐν ἐμοί, καὶ ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ γλώσσης μου.
2The Spirit of the LORD spoke through me; His word was on my tongue.
3λέγει ὁ Θεὸς Ἰσραήλ, ἐμοὶ ἐλάλησε φύλαξ Ἰσραήλ· παραβολὴν εἰπὸν ἐν ἀνθρώπῳ· πῶς κραταιώσητε φόβον Θεοῦ;
3The God of Israel spoke; the Rock of Israel said to me, ‘He who rules the people with justice, who rules in the fear of God,
4καὶ ἐν Θεῷ φωτὶ πρωΐας ἀνατείλαι ἥλιος, τὸ πρωΐ παρῆλθεν ἐκ φέγγους καὶ ὡς ἐξ ὑετοῦ χλόης ἀπὸ γῆς.
4is like the light of the morning at sunrise of a cloudless dawn, the glistening after the rain on the sprouting grass of the earth.’
5οὐ γὰρ οὕτως ὁ οἶκός μου μετὰ ἰσχυροῦ; διαθήκην γὰρ αἰώνιον ἔθετό μοι, ἑτοίμην ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ πεφυλαγμένην, ὅτι πᾶσα σωτηρία μου καὶ πᾶν θέλημα, ὅτι οὐ μὴ βλαστήσῃ ὁ παράνομος.
5Is not my house right with God? For He has established with me an everlasting covenant, ordered and secured in every part. Will He not bring about my full salvation and my every desire?
6ὥσπερ ἄκανθα ἐξωσμένη πάντες οὗτοι, ὅτι οὐ χειρὶ ληφθήσονται,
6But the worthless are all like thorns raked aside, for they can never be gathered by hand.
7καὶ ἀνὴρ οὐ κοπιάσει ἐν αὐτοῖς, καὶ πλῆρες σιδήρου καὶ ξύλον δόρατος, καὶ ἐν πυρὶ καύσει καυθήσονται αἰσχύνην αὐτῶν.
7The man who touches them must be armed with iron or with the shaft of a spear. The fire burns them to ashes in the place where they lie.”
8Ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν δυνατῶν Δαυίδ· Ἰεβοσθὲ ὁ Χαναναῖος, ἄρχων τοῦ τρίτου ἐστίν, Ἀδινὼν ὁ Ἀσωναῖος· οὗτος ἐσπάσατο τὴν ρομφαίαν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ ὀκτακοσίους στρατιώτας εἰσάπαξ.
8These are the names of David’s mighty men: Josheb-basshebeth the Tahchemonite was chief of the Three. He wielded his spear against eight hundred men, whom he killed at one time.
9καὶ μετ' αὐτὸν Ἐλεανὰν υἱὸς πατραδέλφου αὐτοῦ υἱὸς Σουδίτου ἐν τοῖς τρισὶ δυνατοῖς. οὗτος μετὰ Δαυὶδ ἦν ἐν Σερράν, καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνειδίσαι αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς ἀλλοφύλοις συνήχθησαν ἐκεῖ εἰς πόλεμον, καὶ ἀνέβησαν ἀνὴρ Ἰσραήλ·
9Next in command was Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite. As one of the three mighty men, he went with David to taunt the Philistines who had gathered for battle at Pas-dammim. The men of Israel retreated,
10αὐτὸς ἀνέστη καὶ ἐπάταξεν ἐν τοῖς ἀλλοφύλοις, ἕως οὗ ἐκοπίασεν ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ καὶ προσεκολλήθη ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ πρὸς τὴν μάχαιραν, καὶ ἐποίησε Κύριος σωτηρίαν μεγάλην ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ· καὶ ὁ λαὸς ἐκάθητο ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ πλὴν ἐκδιδύσκειν.
10but Eleazar stood his ground and struck the Philistines until his hand grew weary and stuck to his sword. The LORD brought about a great victory that day. Then the troops returned to him, but only to plunder the dead.
11καὶ μετ' αὐτὸν Σαμαΐα υἱὸς Ἀσὰ ὁ Ἀρουχαῖος. καὶ συνήχθησαν οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι εἰς Θηρία, καὶ ἦν ἐκεῖ μερὶς τοῦ ἀγροῦ πλήρης φακοῦ, καὶ ὁ λαὸς ἔφυγεν ἐκ προσώπου ἀλλοφύλων·
11And after him was Shammah son of Agee the Hararite. When the Philistines had banded together near a field full of lentils, Israel’s troops fled from them.
12καὶ ἐστηλώθη ἐν μέσῳ τῆς μερίδος καὶ ἐξείλατο αὐτὴν καὶ ἐπάταξε τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους, καὶ ἐποίησε Κύριος σωτηρίαν μεγάλην.
12But Shammah took his stand in the middle of the field, defended it, and struck down the Philistines. So the LORD brought about a great victory.
13καὶ κατέβησαν τρεῖς ἀπὸ τῶν τριάκοντα καὶ ἦλθαν εἰς Κασὼν πρὸς Δαυὶδ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον Ὀδολλάμ, καὶ τάγμα τῶν ἀλλοφύλων παρενέβαλον ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι Ραφαΐμ·
13At harvest time, three of the thirty chief men went down to David at the cave of Adullam, while a company of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim.
14καὶ Δαυὶδ τότε ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ, καὶ τὸ ὑπόστημα τῶν ἀλλοφύλων τότε ἐν Βηθλεέμ.
14At that time David was in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was at Bethlehem.
15καὶ ἐπεθύμησε Δαυὶδ καὶ εἶπε· τίς ποτιεῖ με ὕδωρ ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου τοῦ ἐν Βηθλεὲμ τοῦ ἐν τῇ πύλῃ; τὸ δὲ σύστημα τῶν ἀλλοφύλων τότε ἐν Βηθλεέμ.
15David longed for water and said, “Oh, that someone would get me a drink of water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!”
16καὶ διέρρηξαν οἱ τρεῖς δυνατοὶ ἐν τῇ παρεμβολῇ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ὑδρεύσαντο ὕδωρ ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου τοῦ ἐν Βηθλεὲμ τοῦ ἐν τῇ πύλῃ καὶ ἔλαβαν καὶ παρεγένοντο πρὸς Δαυίδ, καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησε πιεῖν αὐτὸ καὶ ἔσπεισεν αὐτὸ τῷ Κυρίῳ
16So the three mighty men broke through the Philistine camp, drew water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem, and brought it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured it out to the LORD,
17καὶ εἶπεν· ἵλεώς μοι, Κύριε, τοῦ ποιῆσαι τοῦτο, εἰ αἷμα τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῶν πορευθέντων ἐν ταῖς ψυχαῖς αὐτῶν πίομαι· καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησε πιεῖν αὐτό. ταῦτα ἐποίησαν οἱ τρεῖς δυνατοί.
17saying, “Far be it from me, O LORD, to do this! Is this not the blood of the men who risked their lives?” So he refused to drink it. Such were the exploits of the three mighty men.
18καὶ Ἀβεσσὰ ὁ ἀδελφὸς Ἰωὰβ υἱὸς Σαρουΐας αὐτὸς ἄρχων ἐν τοῖς τρισί. καὶ αὐτὸς ἐξήγειρε τὸ δόρυ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τριακοσίους τραυματίας, καὶ αὐτῷ ὄνομα ἐν τοῖς τρισίν·
18Now Abishai, the brother of Joab and son of Zeruiah, was chief of the Three, and he lifted his spear against three hundred men, killed them, and won a name along with the Three.
19ἐκ τῶν τριῶν ἐκείνων ἔνδοξος, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῖς εἰς ἄρχοντα, καὶ ἕως τῶν τριῶν οὐκ ἦλθε.
19Was he not more honored than the Three? And he became their commander, even though he was not included among the Three.
20καὶ Βαναίας υἱὸς Ἰωδαὲ ἀνὴρ αὐτὸς πολλοστὸς ἔργοις ἀπὸ Καβεσεήλ, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπάταξε τοὺς δύο υἱοὺς Ἀριὴλ τοῦ Μωάβ· καὶ αὐτὸς κατέβη καὶ ἐπάταξε τὸν λέοντα ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λάκκου ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῆς χιόνος·
20And 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.
21αὐτὸς ἐπάταξε τὸν ἄνδρα τὸν Αἰγύπτιον, ἄνδρα ὁρατόν, ἐν δὲ τῇ χειρὶ τοῦ Αἰγυπτίου δόρυ ὡς ξύλον διαβάθρας, καὶ κατέβη πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐν ράβδῳ καὶ ἥρπασε τὸ δόρυ ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ Αἰγυπτίου καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ δόρατι αὐτοῦ.
21He also killed an Egyptian, a huge man. Although the Egyptian had a spear in his hand, Benaiah went against him with a club, snatched the spear from his hand, and killed the Egyptian with his own spear.
22ταῦτα ἐποίησε Βαναίας υἱὸς Ἰωδαέ, καὶ αὐτῷ ὄνομα ἐν τοῖς τρισὶ τοῖς δυνατοῖς·
22These were the exploits of Benaiah son of Jehoiada, who won a name alongside the three mighty men.
23ἐκ τῶν τριῶν ἔνδοξος, καὶ πρὸς τοὺς τρεῖς οὐκ ἦλθε· καὶ ἔταξεν αὐτὸν Δαυὶδ πρὸς τὰς ἀκοὰς αὐτοῦ. καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν δυνατῶν Δαυὶδ τοῦ βασιλέως·
23He was most honored among the Thirty, but he did not become one of the Three. And David appointed him over his guard.
24Ἀσαὴλ ἀδελφὸς Ἰωὰβ (οὗτος ἐν τοῖς τριάκοντα), Ἐλεανὰν υἱὸς Δουδὶ πατραδέλφου αὐτοῦ ἐν Βηθλεέμ.
