Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
World English 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.
1Now these are the last words of David. David the son of Jesse says, the man who was raised on high says, the anointed of the God of Jacob, the sweet psalmist of Israel:
2πνεῦμα Κυρίου ἐλάλησεν ἐν ἐμοί, καὶ ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ γλώσσης μου.
2“The LORD’s Spirit spoke by 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 said, the Rock of Israel spoke to me, ‘One who rules over men righteously, 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.
4shall be as the light of the morning when the sun rises, a morning without clouds, when the tender grass springs out of the earth, through clear shining after rain.’
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.
5Isn’t my house so with God? Yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure, for it is all my salvation and all my desire. Won’t he make it grow?
6ὥσπερ ἄκανθα ἐξωσμένη πάντες οὗτοι, ὅτι οὐ χειρὶ ληφθήσονται,
6But all the ungodly will be as thorns to be thrust away, because they can’t be taken with the 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 and the staff of a spear. They will be utterly burned with fire in their place.”
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 the mighty men whom David had: Josheb Basshebeth, a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains; he was called Adino the Eznite, who killed eight hundred 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·
9After him was Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of an Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David when they defied the Philistines who were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel had gone away.
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.
10He arose and struck the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand froze to the sword; and the LORD worked a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to take plunder.
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·
11After him was Shammah the son of Agee, a Hararite. The Philistines had gathered together into a troop where there was a plot of ground full of lentils; and the people fled from the Philistines.
12καὶ ἐστηλώθη ἐν μέσῳ τῆς μερίδος καὶ ἐξείλατο αὐτὴν καὶ ἐπάταξε τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους, καὶ ἐποίησε Κύριος σωτηρίαν μεγάλην.
12But he stood in the middle of the plot and defended it, and killed the Philistines; and the LORD worked 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·
13Three of the thirty chief men went down, and came to David in the harvest time to the cave of Adullam; and the troop of the Philistines was encamped in the valley of Rephaim.
14καὶ Δαυὶδ τότε ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ, καὶ τὸ ὑπόστημα τῶν ἀλλοφύλων τότε ἐν Βηθλεέμ.
14David was then in the stronghold; and the garrison of the Philistines was then in 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 said longingly, “Oh that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!”
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
16The three mighty men broke through the army of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate and took it and brought it to David; but he would not drink of it, but 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.
17He said, “Be it far from me, LORD, that I should do this! Isn’t this the blood of the men who risked their lives to go?” Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.
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·
18Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the three. He lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them, and had a name among the three.
19ἐκ τῶν τριῶν ἐκείνων ἔνδοξος, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῖς εἰς ἄρχοντα, καὶ ἕως τῶν τριῶν οὐκ ἦλθε.
19Wasn’t he most honorable of the three? Therefore he was made their captain. However he wasn’t included as one of 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·
20Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit in a time of snow.
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 killed a huge Egyptian, and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.
22ταῦτα ἐποίησε Βαναίας υἱὸς Ἰωδαέ, καὶ αὐτῷ ὄνομα ἐν τοῖς τρισὶ τοῖς δυνατοῖς·
22Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did these things, and had a name among 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 more honorable than the thirty, but he didn’t attain to the three. David set him over his guard.
