Every verse with David
Verses 601–700 of 964 (page 7 of 10)
וַיַּעַזְבוּ שָׁם אֶת-אֱלֹֽהֵיהֶם וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד וַיִּשָּֽׂרְפוּ בָּאֵֽשׁ׃
And when they had left their gods there, David gave a commandment, and they were burned with fire.
וַיִּשְׁאַל עוֹד דָּוִיד בֵּֽאלֹהִים וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ הָֽאֱלֹהִים לֹא תַֽעֲלֶה אַֽחֲרֵיהֶם הָסֵב מֵֽעֲלֵיהֶם וּבָאתָ לָהֶם מִמּוּל הַבְּכָאִֽים׃
Therefore David inquired again of God; and God said unto him, Go not up after them; turn away from them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.
וַיַּעַשׂ דָּוִיד כַּֽאֲשֶׁר צִוָּהוּ הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיַּכּוּ אֶת-מַֽחֲנֵה פְלִשְׁתִּים מִגִּבְעוֹן וְעַד-גָּֽזְרָה׃
David therefore did as God commanded him: and they smote the host of the Philistines from Gibeon even to Gazer.
וַיֵּצֵא שֵׁם-דָּוִיד בְּכָל-הָֽאֲרָצוֹת וַֽיהוָה נָתַן אֶת-פַּחְדּוֹ עַל-כָּל-הַגּוֹיִֽם׃
And the fame of David went out into all lands; and the LORD brought the fear of him upon all nations.
וַיַּֽעַשׂ-לוֹ בָתִּים בְּעִיר דָּוִיד וַיָּכֶן מָקוֹם לַֽאֲרוֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיֶּט-לוֹ אֹֽהֶל׃
And David made him houses in the city of David, and prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent.
אָז אָמַר דָּוִיד לֹא לָשֵׂאת אֶת-אֲרוֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִים כִּי אִם-הַלְוִיִּם כִּי-בָם׀ בָּחַר יְהוָה לָשֵׂאת אֶת-אֲרוֹן יְהוָה וּֽלְשָׁרְתוֹ עַד-עוֹלָֽם׃
Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them hath the LORD chosen to carry the ark of GOD, and to minister unto him for ever.
וַיַּקְהֵל דָּוִיד אֶת-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם לְהַֽעֲלוֹת אֶת-אֲרוֹן יְהוָה אֶל-מְקוֹמוֹ אֲשֶׁר-הֵכִין לֽוֹ׃
And David gathered together all Israel to Jerusalem, to bring up the ark of the LORD unto his place, which he had prepared for it.
וַיֶּֽאֱסֹף דָּוִיד אֶת-בְּנֵי אַֽהֲרֹן וְאֶת-הַלְוִיִּֽם׃
And David assembled the children of Aaron, and the Levites:
וַיִּקְרָא דָוִיד לְצָדוֹק וּלְאֶבְיָתָר הַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְלַלְוִיִּם לְאֽוּרִיאֵל עֲשָׂיָה וְיוֹאֵל שְׁמַֽעְיָה וֶֽאֱלִיאֵל וְעַמִּֽינָדָֽב׃
And David called for Zadok and Abiathar the priests, and for the Levites, for Uriel, Asaiah, and Joel, Shemaiah, and Eliel, and Amminadab,
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד לְשָׂרֵי הַלְוִיִּם לְהַֽעֲמִיד אֶת-אֲחֵיהֶם הַמְשֹׁרְרִים בִּכְלֵי-שִׁיר נְבָלִים וְכִנֹּרוֹת וּמְצִלְתָּיִם מַשְׁמִיעִים לְהָרִֽים-בְּקוֹל לְשִׂמְחָֽה׃
And David spake to the chief of the Levites to appoint their brethren to be the singers with instruments of musick, psalteries and harps and cymbals, sounding, by lifting up the voice with joy.
וַיְהִי דָוִיד וְזִקְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְשָׂרֵי הָֽאֲלָפִים הַהֹֽלְכִים לְֽהַעֲלוֹת אֶת-אֲרוֹן בְּרִית-יְהוָה מִן-בֵּית עֹבֵֽד-אֱדֹם בְּשִׂמְחָֽה׃
So David, and the elders of Israel, and the captains over thousands, went to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the house of Obed-edom with joy.
וְדָוִיד מְכֻרְבָּל׀ בִּמְעִיל בּוּץ וְכָל-הַלְוִיִּם הַנֹּֽשְׂאִים אֶת-הָֽאָרוֹן וְהַמְשֹׁרְרִים וּכְנַנְיָה הַשַּׂר הַמַּשָּׂא הַמְשֹֽׁרְרִים וְעַל-דָּוִיד אֵפוֹד בָּֽד׃
And David was clothed with a robe of fine linen, and all the Levites that bare the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah the master of the song with the singers: David also had upon him an ephod of linen.
וַיְהִי אֲרוֹן בְּרִית יְהוָה בָּא עַד-עִיר דָּוִיד וּמִיכַל בַּת-שָׁאוּל נִשְׁקְפָה׀ בְּעַד הַֽחַלּוֹן וַתֵּרֶא אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִיד מְרַקֵּד וּמְשַׂחֵק וַתִּבֶז לוֹ בְּלִבָּֽהּ׃
And it came to pass, as the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looking out at a window saw king David dancing and playing: and she despised him in her heart.
וַיָּבִיאוּ אֶת-אֲרוֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִים וַיַּצִּיגוּ אֹתוֹ בְּתוֹךְ הָאֹהֶל אֲשֶׁר נָֽטָה-לוֹ דָּוִיד וַיַּקְרִיבוּ עֹלוֹת וּשְׁלָמִים לִפְנֵי הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
So they brought the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it: and they offered burnt sacrifices and peace offerings before God.
וַיְכַל דָּוִיד מֵהַֽעֲלוֹת הָֽעֹלָה וְהַשְּׁלָמִים וַיְבָרֶךְ אֶת-הָעָם בְּשֵׁם יְהוָֽה׃
And when David had made an end of offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD.
בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא אָז נָתַן דָּוִיד בָּרֹאשׁ לְהֹדוֹת לַֽיהוָה בְּיַד-אָסָף וְאֶחָֽיו׃
Then on that day David delivered first this psalm to thank the LORD into the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
וַיֵּֽלְכוּ כָל-הָעָם אִישׁ לְבֵיתוֹ וַיִּסֹּב דָּוִיד לְבָרֵךְ אֶת-בֵּיתֽוֹ׃
And all the people departed every man to his house: and David returned to bless his house.
וַיְהִי כַּֽאֲשֶׁר יָשַׁב דָּוִיד בְּבֵיתוֹ וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד אֶל-נָתָן הַנָּבִיא הִנֵּה אָֽנֹכִי יוֹשֵׁב בְּבֵית הָֽאֲרָזִים וַֽאֲרוֹן בְּרִית-יְהוָה תַּחַת יְרִיעֽוֹת׃
Now it came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in an house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD remaineth under curtains.
וַיֹּאמֶר נָתָן אֶל-דָּוִיד כֹּל אֲשֶׁר בִּֽלְבָבְךָ עֲשֵׂה כִּי הָֽאֱלֹהִים עִמָּֽךְ׃
Then Nathan said unto David, Do all that is in thine heart; for God is with thee.
לֵךְ וְאָֽמַרְתָּ אֶל-דָּוִיד עַבְדִּי כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה לֹא אַתָּה תִּבְנֶה-לִּי הַבַּיִת לָשָֽׁבֶת׃
Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:
וְעַתָּה כֹּֽה-תֹאמַר לְעַבְדִּי לְדָוִיד כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת אֲנִי לְקַחְתִּיךָ מִן-הַנָּוֶה מִֽן-אַחֲרֵי הַצֹּאן לִֽהְיוֹת נָגִיד עַל עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Now therefore thus shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I took thee from the sheepcote, even from following the sheep, that thou shouldest be ruler over my people Israel:
כְּכֹל הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה וּכְכֹל הֶֽחָזוֹן הַזֶּה כֵּן דִּבֶּר נָתָן אֶל-דָּוִֽיד׃
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.
וַיָּבֹא הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִיד וַיֵּשֶׁב לִפְנֵי יְהוָה וַיֹּאמֶר מִֽי-אֲנִי יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים וּמִי בֵיתִי כִּי הֲבִֽיאֹתַנִי עַד-הֲלֹֽם׃
And David the king came and sat before the LORD, and said, Who am I, O LORD God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
מַה-יּוֹסִיף עוֹד דָּוִיד אֵלֶיךָ לְכָבוֹד אֶת-עַבְדֶּךָ וְאַתָּה אֶֽת-עַבְדְּךָ יָדָֽעְתָּ׃
What can David speak more to thee for the honour of thy servant? for thou knowest thy servant.
וְיֵֽאָמֵן וְיִגְדַּל שִׁמְךָ עַד-עוֹלָם לֵאמֹר יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֱלֹהִים לְיִשְׂרָאֵל וּבֵית-דָּוִיד עַבְדְּךָ נָכוֹן לְפָנֶֽיךָ׃
Let it even be established, that thy name may be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel: and let the house of David thy servant be established before thee.
וַֽיְהִי אַֽחֲרֵי-כֵן וַיַּךְ דָּוִיד אֶת-פְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיַּכְנִיעֵם וַיִּקַּח אֶת-גַּת וּבְנֹתֶיהָ מִיַּד פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים׃
Now after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and her towns out of the hand of the Philistines.
וַיַּךְ אֶת-מוֹאָב וַיִּֽהְיוּ מוֹאָב עֲבָדִים לְדָוִיד נֹֽשְׂאֵי מִנְחָֽה׃
And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became David's servants, and brought gifts.
וַיַּךְ דָּוִיד אֶת-הֲדַדְעֶזֶר מֶֽלֶךְ-צוֹבָה חֲמָתָה בְּלֶכְתּוֹ לְהַצִּיב יָדוֹ בִּֽנְהַר-פְּרָֽת׃
And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah unto Hamath, as he went to stablish his dominion by the river Euphrates.
וַיִּלְכֹּד דָּוִיד מִמֶּנּוּ אֶלֶף רֶכֶב וְשִׁבְעַת אֲלָפִים פָּֽרָשִׁים וְעֶשְׂרִים אֶלֶף אִישׁ רַגְלִי וַיְעַקֵּר דָּוִיד אֶת-כָּל-הָרֶכֶב וַיּוֹתֵר מִמֶּנּוּ מֵאָה רָֽכֶב׃
And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: David also houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them an hundred chariots.
וַיָּבֹא אֲרַם דַּרְמֶשֶׂק לַעְזוֹר לַֽהֲדַדְעֶזֶר מֶלֶךְ צוֹבָה וַיַּךְ דָּוִיד בַּֽאֲרָם עֶשְׂרִֽים-וּשְׁנַיִם אֶלֶף אִֽישׁ׃
And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.
וַיָּשֶׂם דָּוִיד בַּֽאֲרַם דַּרְמֶשֶׂק וַיְהִי אֲרָם לְדָוִיד עֲבָדִים נֹֽשְׂאֵי מִנְחָה וַיּוֹשַׁע יְהוָה לְדָוִיד בְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר הָלָֽךְ׃
Then David put garrisons in Syria-damascus; and the Syrians became David's servants, and brought gifts. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
וַיִּקַּח דָּוִיד אֵת שִׁלְטֵי הַזָּהָב אֲשֶׁר הָיוּ עַל עַבְדֵי הֲדַדְעָזֶר וַיְבִיאֵם יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
וּמִטִּבְחַת וּמִכּוּן עָרֵי הֲדַדְעֶזֶר לָקַח דָּוִיד נְחֹשֶׁת רַבָּה מְאֹד בָּהּ׀ עָשָׂה שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת-יָם הַנְּחֹשֶׁת וְאֶת-הָֽעַמּוּדִים וְאֵת כְּלֵי הַנְּחֹֽשֶׁת׃
Likewise from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, brought David very much brass, wherewith Solomon made the brasen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.
וַיִּשְׁמַע תֹּעוּ מֶלֶךְ חֲמָת כִּי הִכָּה דָוִיד אֶת-כָּל-חֵיל הֲדַדְעֶזֶר מֶֽלֶךְ-צוֹבָֽה׃
Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah;
וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶת-הֲדֽוֹרָם-בְּנוֹ אֶל-הַמֶּֽלֶךְ-דָּוִיד (לשאול) לִשְׁאָל-לוֹ לְשָׁלוֹם וּֽלְבָרֲכוֹ עַל אֲשֶׁר נִלְחַם בַּֽהֲדַדְעֶזֶר וַיַּכֵּהוּ כִּי-אִישׁ מִלְחֲמוֹת תֹּעוּ הָיָה הֲדַדְעָזֶר וְכֹל כְּלֵי זָהָב וָכֶסֶף וּנְחֹֽשֶׁת׃
He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to inquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had war with Tou;) and with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.
גַּם-אֹתָם הִקְדִּישׁ הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִיד לַֽיהוָה עִם-הַכֶּסֶף וְהַזָּהָב אֲשֶׁר נָשָׂא מִכָּל-הַגּוֹיִם מֵֽאֱדוֹם וּמִמּוֹאָב וּמִבְּנֵי עַמּוֹן וּמִפְּלִשְׁתִּים וּמֵֽעֲמָלֵֽק׃
Them also king David dedicated unto the LORD, with the silver and the gold that he brought from all these nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.
וַיָּשֶׂם בֶּֽאֱדוֹם נְצִיבִים וַיִּֽהְיוּ כָל-אֱדוֹם עֲבָדִים לְדָוִיד וַיּוֹשַׁע יְהוָה אֶת-דָּוִיד בְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר הָלָֽךְ׃
And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became David's servants. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
וַיִּמְלֹךְ דָּוִיד עַל-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיְהִי עֹשֶׂה מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה לְכָל-עַמּֽוֹ׃
So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.
וּבְנָיָהוּ בֶּן-יְהוֹיָדָע עַל-הַכְּרֵתִי וְהַפְּלֵתִי וּבְנֵֽי-דָוִיד הָרִֽאשֹׁנִים לְיַד הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief about the king.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד אֶֽעֱשֶׂה-חֶסֶד׀ עִם-חָנוּן בֶּן-נָחָשׁ כִּֽי-עָשָׂה אָבִיו עִמִּי חֶסֶד וַיִּשְׁלַח דָּוִיד מַלְאָכִים לְנַֽחֲמוֹ עַל-אָבִיו וַיָּבֹאוּ עַבְדֵי דָוִיד אֶל-אֶרֶץ בְּנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן אֶל-חָנוּן לְנַֽחֲמֽוֹ׃
And David said, I will shew kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ שָׂרֵי בְנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן לְחָנוּן הַֽמְכַבֵּד דָּוִיד אֶת-אָבִיךָ בְּעֵינֶיךָ כִּֽי-שָׁלַח לְךָ מְנַֽחֲמִים הֲלֹא בַּֽעֲבוּר לַחְקֹר וְלַֽהֲפֹךְ וּלְרַגֵּל הָאָרֶץ בָּאוּ עֲבָדָיו אֵלֶֽיךָ׃
But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee for to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
וַיִּקַּח חָנוּן אֶת-עַבְדֵי דָוִיד וַֽיְגַלְּחֵם וַיִּכְרֹת אֶת-מַדְוֵיהֶם בַּחֵצִי עַד-הַמִּפְשָׂעָה וַֽיְשַׁלְּחֵֽם׃
Wherefore Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the midst hard by their buttocks, and sent them away.
וַיֵּֽלְכוּ וַיַּגִּידוּ לְדָוִיד עַל-הָֽאֲנָשִׁים וַיִּשְׁלַח לִקְרָאתָם כִּֽי-הָיוּ הָֽאֲנָשִׁים נִכְלָמִים מְאֹד וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁבוּ בִֽירֵחוֹ עַד אֲשֶׁר-יְצַמַּח זְקַנְכֶם וְשַׁבְתֶּֽם׃
Then there went certain, and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them: for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
וַיִּרְאוּ בְּנֵי עַמּוֹן כִּי הִֽתְבָּאֲשׁוּ עִם-דָּוִיד וַיִּשְׁלַח חָנוּן וּבְנֵי עַמּוֹן אֶלֶף כִּכַּר-כֶּסֶף לִשְׂכֹּר לָהֶם מִן-אֲרַם נַֽהֲרַיִם וּמִן-אֲרַם מַֽעֲכָה וּמִצּוֹבָה רֶכֶב וּפָֽרָשִֽׁים׃
And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria-maachah, and out of Zobah.
וַיִּשְׁמַע דָּוִיד וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶת-יוֹאָב וְאֵת כָּל-צָבָא הַגִּבּוֹרִֽים׃
And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
וַיֻּגַּד לְדָוִיד וַיֶּֽאֱסֹף אֶת-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּֽעֲבֹר הַיַּרְדֵּן וַיָּבֹא אֲלֵהֶם וַֽיַּעֲרֹךְ אֲלֵהֶם וַיַּֽעֲרֹךְ דָּוִיד לִקְרַאת אֲרָם מִלְחָמָה וַיִּֽלָּחֲמוּ עִמּֽוֹ׃
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.
וַיָּנָס אֲרָם מִלִּפְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּֽהֲרֹג דָּוִיד מֵֽאֲרָם שִׁבְעַת אֲלָפִים רֶכֶב וְאַרְבָּעִים אֶלֶף אִישׁ רַגְלִי וְאֵת שׁוֹפַךְ שַֽׂר-הַצָּבָא הֵמִֽית׃
But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand men which fought in chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.
וַיִּרְאוּ עַבְדֵי הֲדַדְעֶזֶר כִּי נִגְּפוּ לִפְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּשְׁלִימוּ עִם-דָּוִיד וַיַּֽעַבְדֻהוּ וְלֹֽא-אָבָה אֲרָם לְהוֹשִׁיעַ אֶת-בְּנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן עֽוֹד׃
And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.
וַיְהִי לְעֵת תְּשׁוּבַת הַשָּׁנָה לְעֵת׀ צֵאת הַמְּלָכִים וַיִּנְהַג יוֹאָב אֶת-חֵיל הַצָּבָא וַיַּשְׁחֵת׀ אֶת-אֶרֶץ בְּנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן וַיָּבֹא וַיָּצַר אֶת-רַבָּה וְדָוִיד יֹשֵׁב בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם וַיַּךְ יוֹאָב אֶת-רַבָּה וַיֶּֽהֶרְסֶֽהָ׃
And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.
וַיִּקַּח דָּוִיד אֶת-עֲטֶֽרֶת-מַלְכָּם מֵעַל רֹאשׁוֹ וַֽיִּמְצָאָהּ׀ מִשְׁקַל כִּכַּר-זָהָב וּבָהּ אֶבֶן יְקָרָה וַתְּהִי עַל-רֹאשׁ דָּוִיד וּשְׁלַל הָעִיר הוֹצִיא הַרְבֵּה מְאֹֽד׃
And David took the crown of their king from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it; and it was set upon David's head: and he brought also exceeding much spoil out of the city.
וְאֶת-הָעָם אֲשֶׁר-בָּהּ הוֹצִיא וַיָּשַׂר בַּמְּגֵרָה וּבַֽחֲרִיצֵי הַבַּרְזֶל וּבַמְּגֵרוֹת וְכֵן יַֽעֲשֶׂה דָוִיד לְכֹל עָרֵי בְנֵֽי-עַמּוֹן וַיָּשָׁב דָּוִיד וְכָל-הָעָם יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
וַיְחָרֵף אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּכֵּהוּ יְהוֹנָתָן בֶּן-שִׁמְעָא אֲחִי דָוִֽיד׃
But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.
אֵל נוּלְּדוּ לְהָֽרָפָא בְּגַת וַיִּפְּלוּ בְיַד-דָּוִיד וּבְיַד-עֲבָדָֽיו׃
These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
וַיַּֽעֲמֹד שָׂטָן עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיָּסֶת אֶת-דָּוִיד לִמְנוֹת אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד אֶל-יוֹאָב וְאֶל-שָׂרֵי הָעָם לְכוּ סִפְרוּ אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל מִבְּאֵר שֶׁבַע וְעַד-דָּן וְהָבִיאוּ אֵלַי וְאֵֽדְעָה אֶת-מִסְפָּרָֽם׃
And David said to Joab and to the rulers of the people, Go, number Israel from Beer-sheba even to Dan; and bring the number of them to me, that I may know it.
וַיִּתֵּן יוֹאָב אֶת-מִסְפַּר מִפְקַד-הָעָם אֶל-דָּוִיד וַיְהִי כָֽל-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶלֶף אֲלָפִים וּמֵאָה אֶלֶף אִישׁ שֹׁלֵֽף חֶרֶב וִֽיהוּדָה אַרְבַּע מֵאוֹת וְשִׁבְעִים אֶלֶף אִישׁ שֹׁלֵֽף חָֽרֶב׃
And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד אֶל-הָאֱלֹהִים חָטָאתִֽי מְאֹד אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתִי אֶת-הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה וְעַתָּה הַֽעֲבֶר-נָא אֶת-עֲווֹן עַבְדְּךָ כִּי נִסְכַּלְתִּי מְאֹֽד׃
And David said unto God, I have sinned greatly, because I have done this thing: but now, I beseech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly.
וַיְדַבֵּר יְהוָה אֶל-גָּד חֹזֵה דָוִיד לֵאמֹֽר׃
And the LORD spake unto Gad, David's seer, saying,
לֵךְ וְדִבַּרְתָּ אֶל-דָּוִיד לֵאמֹר כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה שָׁלוֹשׁ אֲנִי נֹטֶה עָלֶיךָ בְּחַר-לְךָ אַחַת מֵהֵנָּה וְאֶֽעֱשֶׂה-לָּֽךְ׃
Go and tell David, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I offer thee three things: choose thee one of them, that I may do it unto thee.
וַיָּבֹא גָד אֶל-דָּוִיד וַיֹּאמֶר לוֹ כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה קַבֶּל-לָֽךְ׃
So Gad came to David, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Choose thee
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד אֶל-גָּד צַר-לִי מְאֹד אֶפְּלָה-נָּא בְיַד-יְהוָה כִּֽי-רַבִּים רַֽחֲמָיו מְאֹד וּבְיַד-אָדָם אַל-אֶפֹּֽל׃
And David said unto Gad, I am in a great strait: let me fall now into the hand of the LORD; for very great are his mercies: but let me not fall into the hand of man.
וַיִּשָּׂא דָוִיד אֶת-עֵינָיו וַיַּרְא אֶת-מַלְאַךְ יְהוָה עֹמֵד בֵּין הָאָרֶץ וּבֵין הַשָּׁמַיִם וְחַרְבּוֹ שְׁלוּפָה בְּיָדוֹ נְטוּיָה עַל-יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם וַיִּפֹּל דָּוִיד וְהַזְּקֵנִים מְכֻסִּים בַּשַּׂקִּים עַל-פְּנֵיהֶֽם׃
And David lifted up his eyes, and saw the angel of the LORD stand between the earth and the heaven, having a drawn sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders of Israel, who were clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד אֶֽל-הָאֱלֹהִים הֲלֹא אֲנִי אָמַרְתִּי לִמְנוֹת בָּעָם וַֽאֲנִי-הוּא אֲשֶׁר-חָטָאתִי וְהָרֵעַ הֲרֵעוֹתִי וְאֵלֶּה הַצֹּאן מֶה עָשׂוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהַי תְּהִי נָא יָֽדְךָ בִּי וּבְבֵית אָבִי וּֽבְעַמְּךָ לֹא לְמַגֵּפָֽה׃
And David said unto God, Is it not I that commanded the people to be numbered? even I it is that have sinned and done evil indeed; but as for these sheep, what have they done? let thine hand, I pray thee, O LORD my God, be on me, and on my father's house; but not on thy people, that they should be plagued.
וּמַלְאַךְ יְהוָה אָמַר אֶל-גָּד לֵאמֹר לְדָוִיד כִּי׀ יַֽעֲלֶה דָוִיד לְהָקִים מִזְבֵּחַ לַֽיהוָה בְּגֹרֶן אָרְנָן הַיְבֻסִֽי׃
Then the angel of the LORD commanded Gad to say to David, that David should go up, and set up an altar unto the LORD in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
וַיַּעַל דָּוִיד בִּדְבַר-גָּד אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר בְּשֵׁם יְהוָֽה׃
And David went up at the saying of Gad, which he spake in the name of the LORD.
וַיָּבֹא דָוִיד עַד-אָרְנָן וַיַּבֵּט אָרְנָן וַיַּרְא אֶת-דָּוִיד וַיֵּצֵא מִן-הַגֹּרֶן וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ לְדָוִיד אַפַּיִם אָֽרְצָה׃
And as David came to Ornan, Ornan looked and saw David, and went out of the threshingfloor, and bowed himself to David with his face to the ground.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד אֶל-אָרְנָן תְּנָה-לִּי מְקוֹם הַגֹּרֶן וְאֶבְנֶה-בּוֹ מִזְבֵּחַ לַֽיהוָה בְּכֶסֶף מָלֵא תְּנֵהוּ לִי וְתֵֽעָצַר הַמַּגֵּפָה מֵעַל הָעָֽם׃
Then David said to Ornan, Grant me the place of this threshingfloor, that I may build an altar therein unto the LORD: thou shalt grant it me for the full price: that the plague may be stayed from the people.
וַיֹּאמֶר אָרְנָן אֶל-דָּוִיד קַֽח-לָךְ וְיַעַשׂ אֲדֹנִי הַמֶּלֶךְ הַטּוֹב בְּעֵינָיו רְאֵה נָתַתִּי הַבָּקָר לָֽעֹלוֹת וְהַמּֽוֹרִגִּים לָֽעֵצִים וְהַֽחִטִּים לַמִּנְחָה הַכֹּל נָתָֽתִּי׃
And Ornan said unto David, Take it to thee, and let my lord the king do that which is good in his eyes: lo, I give thee the oxen also for burnt offerings, and the threshing instruments for wood, and the wheat for the meat offering; I give it all.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִיד לְאָרְנָן לֹא כִּֽי-קָנֹה אֶקְנֶה בְּכֶסֶף מָלֵא כִּי לֹֽא-אֶשָּׂא אֲשֶׁר-לְךָ לַֽיהוָה וְהַֽעֲלוֹת עוֹלָה חִנָּֽם׃
And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for the LORD, nor offer burnt offerings without cost.
וַיִּתֵּן דָּוִיד לְאָרְנָן בַּמָּקוֹם שִׁקְלֵי זָהָב מִשְׁקָל שֵׁשׁ מֵאֽוֹת׃
So David gave to Ornan for the place six hundred shekels of gold by weight.
וַיִּבֶן שָׁם דָּוִיד מִזְבֵּחַ לַֽיהוָה וַיַּעַל עֹלוֹת וּשְׁלָמִים וַיִּקְרָא אֶל-יְהוָה וַֽיַּעֲנֵהוּ בָאֵשׁ מִן-הַשָּׁמַיִם עַל מִזְבַּח הָֽעֹלָֽה׃
And David built there an altar unto the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings, and called upon the LORD; and he answered him from heaven by fire upon the altar of burnt offering.
בָּעֵת הַהִיא בִּרְאוֹת דָּוִיד כִּֽי-עָנָהוּ יְהוָה בְּגֹרֶן אָרְנָן הַיְבוּסִי וַיִּזְבַּח שָֽׁם׃
At that time when David saw that the LORD had answered him in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite, then he sacrificed there.
וְלֹֽא-יָכֹל דָּוִיד לָלֶכֶת לְפָנָיו לִדְרֹשׁ אֱלֹהִים כִּי נִבְעַת מִפְּנֵי חֶרֶב מַלְאַךְ יְהוָֽה׃
But David could not go before it to inquire of God: for he was afraid because of the sword of the angel of the LORD.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד זֶה הוּא בֵּית יְהוָה הָֽאֱלֹהִים וְזֶה-מִּזְבֵּחַ לְעֹלָה לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Then David said, This is the house of the LORD God, and this is the altar of the burnt offering for Israel.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד לִכְנוֹס אֶת-הַגֵּרִים אֲשֶׁר בְּאֶרֶץ יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּֽעֲמֵד חֹֽצְבִים לַחְצוֹב אַבְנֵי גָזִית לִבְנוֹת בֵּית הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
And David commanded to gather together the strangers that were in the land of Israel; and he set masons to hew wrought stones to build the house of God.
וּבַרְזֶל׀ לָרֹב לַֽמִּסְמְרִים לְדַלְתוֹת הַשְּׁעָרִים וְלַֽמְחַבְּרוֹת הֵכִין דָּוִיד וּנְחֹשֶׁת לָרֹב אֵין מִשְׁקָֽל׃
And David prepared iron in abundance for the nails for the doors of the gates, and for the joinings; and brass in abundance without weight;
וַֽעֲצֵי אֲרָזִים לְאֵין מִסְפָּר כִּֽי הֵבִיאוּ הַצִּֽידֹנִים וְהַצֹּרִים עֲצֵי אֲרָזִים לָרֹב לְדָוִֽיד׃
Also cedar trees in abundance: for the Zidonians and they of Tyre brought much cedar wood to David.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד שְׁלֹמֹה בְנִי נַעַר וָרָךְ וְהַבַּיִת לִבְנוֹת לַֽיהוָה לְהַגְדִּיל׀ לְמַעְלָה לְשֵׁם וּלְתִפְאֶרֶת לְכָל-הָאֲרָצוֹת אָכִינָה נָּא לוֹ וַיָּכֶן דָּוִיד לָרֹב לִפְנֵי מוֹתֽוֹ׃
And David said, Solomon my son is young and tender, and the house that is to be builded for the LORD must be exceeding magnifical, of fame and of glory throughout all countries: I will therefore now make preparation for it. So David prepared abundantly before his death.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד לִשְׁלֹמֹה (בנו) בְּנִי אֲנִי הָיָה עִם-לְבָבִי לִבְנוֹת בַּיִת לְשֵׁם יְהוָה אֱלֹהָֽי׃
And David said to Solomon, My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build an house unto the name of the LORD my God:
וַיְצַו דָּוִיד לְכָל-שָׂרֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לַעְזֹר לִשְׁלֹמֹה בְנֽוֹ׃
David also commanded all the princes of Israel to help Solomon his son, saying,
וְדָוִיד זָקֵן וְשָׂבַע יָמִים וַיַּמְלֵךְ אֶת-שְׁלֹמֹה בְנוֹ עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
So when David was old and full of days, he made Solomon his son king over Israel.
וַיֶּֽחָלְקֵם דָּוִיד מַחְלְקוֹת לִבְנֵי לֵוִי לְגֵֽרְשׁוֹן קְהָת וּמְרָרִֽי׃
And David divided them into courses among the sons of Levi, namely, Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
כִּי אָמַר דָּוִיד הֵנִיחַ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵֽי-יִשְׂרָאֵל לְעַמּוֹ וַיִּשְׁכֹּן בִּירֽוּשָׁלִַם עַד-לְעוֹלָֽם׃
For David said, The LORD God of Israel hath given rest unto his people, that they may dwell in Jerusalem for ever:
כִּי בְדִבְרֵי דָוִיד הָאַחֲרוֹנִים הֵמָּה מִסְפַּר בְּנֵֽי-לֵוִי מִבֶּן עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה וּלְמָֽעְלָה׃
For by the last words of David the Levites were numbered from twenty years old and above:
וַיֶּֽחָלְקֵם דָּוִיד וְצָדוֹק מִן-בְּנֵי אֶלְעָזָר וַֽאֲחִימֶלֶךְ מִן-בְּנֵי אִֽיתָמָר לִפְקֻדָּתָם בַּעֲבֹֽדָתָֽם׃
And David distributed them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, according to their offices in their service.
וַיַּפִּילוּ גַם-הֵם גּֽוֹרָלוֹת לְעֻמַּת׀ אֲחֵיהֶם בְּנֵֽי-אַהֲרֹן לִפְנֵי דָוִיד הַמֶּלֶךְ וְצָדוֹק וַֽאֲחִימֶלֶךְ וְרָאשֵׁי הָֽאָבוֹת לַכֹּֽהֲנִים וְלַלְוִיִּם אָבוֹת הָרֹאשׁ לְעֻמַּת אָחִיו הַקָּטָֽן׃
These likewise cast lots over against their brethren the sons of Aaron in the presence of David the king, and Zadok, and Ahimelech, and the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites, even the principal fathers over against their younger brethren.
וַיַּבְדֵּל דָּוִיד וְשָׂרֵי הַצָּבָא לַֽעֲבֹדָה לִבְנֵי אָסָף וְהֵימָן וִֽידוּתוּן (הנביאים) הַֽנִּבְּאִים בְּכִנֹּרוֹת בִּנְבָלִים וּבִמְצִלְתָּיִם וַֽיְהִי מִסְפָּרָם אַנְשֵׁי מְלָאכָה לַעֲבֹֽדָתָֽם׃
Moreover David and the captains of the host separated to the service of the sons of Asaph, and of Heman, and of Jeduthun, who should prophesy with harps, with psalteries, and with cymbals: and the number of the workmen according to their service was:
הוּא שְׁלֹמוֹת וְאֶחָיו עַל כָּל-אֹֽצְרוֹת הַקֳּדָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר הִקְדִּישׁ דָּוִיד הַמֶּלֶךְ וְרָאשֵׁי הָֽאָבוֹת לְשָׂרֵֽי-הָאֲלָפִים וְהַמֵּאוֹת וְשָׂרֵי הַצָּבָֽא׃
Which Shelomith and his brethren were over all the treasures of the dedicated things, which David the king, and the chief fathers, the captains over thousands and hundreds, and the captains of the host, had dedicated.
לַֽחֶבְרוֹנִי יְרִיָּה הָרֹאשׁ לַֽחֶבְרוֹנִי לְתֹֽלְדֹתָיו לְאָבוֹת בִּשְׁנַת הָֽאַרְבָּעִים לְמַלְכוּת דָּוִיד נִדְרָשׁוּ וַיִּמָּצֵא בָהֶם גִּבּוֹרֵי חַיִל בְּיַעְזֵיר גִּלְעָֽד׃
Among the Hebronites was Jerijah the chief, even among the Hebronites, according to the generations of his fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought for, and there were found among them mighty men of valour at Jazer of Gilead.
וְאֶחָיו בְּנֵי-חַיִל אַלְפַּיִם וּשְׁבַע מֵאוֹת רָאשֵׁי הָֽאָבוֹת וַֽיַּפְקִידֵם דָּוִיד הַמֶּלֶךְ עַל-הָרֽאוּבֵנִי וְהַגָּדִי וַֽחֲצִי שֵׁבֶט הַֽמְנַשִּׁי לְכָל-דְּבַר הָֽאֱלֹהִים וּדְבַר הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
And his brethren, men of valour, were two thousand and seven hundred chief fathers, whom king David made rulers over the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, for every matter pertaining to God, and affairs of the king.
לִֽיהוּדָה אֱלִיהוּ מֵֽאֲחֵי דָוִיד לְיִשָׂשכָר עָמְרִי בֶּן-מִֽיכָאֵֽל׃
Of Judah, Elihu, one of the brethren of David: of Issachar, Omri the son of Michael:
וְלֹֽא-נָשָׂא דָוִיד מִסְפָּרָם לְמִבֶּן עֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה וּלְמָטָּה כִּי אָמַר יְהוָה לְהַרְבּוֹת אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל כְּכֽוֹכְבֵי הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
But David took not the number of them from twenty years old and under: because the LORD had said he would increase Israel like to the stars of the heavens.
יוֹאָב בֶּן-צְרוּיָה הֵחֵל לִמְנוֹת וְלֹא כִלָּה וַיְהִי בָזֹאת קֶצֶף עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְלֹא עָלָה הַמִּסְפָּר בְּמִסְפַּר דִּבְרֵֽי-הַיָּמִים לַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִֽיד׃
Joab the son of Zeruiah began to number, but he finished not, because there fell wrath for it against Israel; neither was the number put in the account of the chronicles of king David.
וְעַל-הַצֹּאן יָזִיז הַֽהַגְרִי כָּל-אֵלֶּה שָׂרֵי הָֽרְכוּשׁ אֲשֶׁר לַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִֽיד׃
And over the flocks was Jaziz the Hagerite. All these were the rulers of the substance which was king David's.
וִיהֽוֹנָתָן דּוֹד-דָּוִיד יוֹעֵץ אִישׁ-מֵבִין וְסוֹפֵר הוּא וִֽיחִיאֵל בֶּן-חַכְמוֹנִי עִם-בְּנֵי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
Also Jonathan David's uncle was a counseller, a wise man, and a scribe: and Jehiel the son of Hachmoni was with the king's sons:
וַיַּקְהֵל דָּוִיד אֶת-כָּל-שָׂרֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל שָׂרֵי הַשְּׁבָטִים וְשָׂרֵי הַמַּחְלְקוֹת הַמְשָֽׁרְתִים אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ וְשָׂרֵי הָֽאֲלָפִים וְשָׂרֵי הַמֵּאוֹת וְשָׂרֵי כָל-רְכוּשׁ-וּמִקְנֶה׀ לַמֶּלֶךְ וּלְבָנָיו עִם-הַסָּֽרִיסִים וְהַגִּבּוֹרִים וּֽלְכָל-גִּבּוֹר חָיִל אֶל-יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And David assembled all the princes of Israel, the princes of the tribes, and the captains of the companies that ministered to the king by course, and the captains over the thousands, and captains over the hundreds, and the stewards over all the substance and possession of the king, and of his sons, with the officers, and with the mighty men, and with all the valiant men, unto Jerusalem.
וַיָּקָם דָּוִיד הַמֶּלֶךְ עַל-רַגְלָיו וַיֹּאמֶר שְׁמָעוּנִי אַחַי וְעַמִּי אֲנִי עִם-לְבָבִי לִבְנוֹת בֵּית מְנוּחָה לַֽאֲרוֹן בְּרִית-יְהוָה וְלַֽהֲדֹם רַגְלֵי אֱלֹהֵינוּ וַֽהֲכִינוֹתִי לִבְנֽוֹת׃
Then David the king stood up upon his feet, and said, Hear me, my brethren, and my people: As for me, I had in mine heart to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and for the footstool of our God, and had made ready for the building:
וַיִּתֵּן דָּוִיד לִשְׁלֹמֹה בְנוֹ אֶת-תַּבְנִית הָֽאוּלָם וְֽאֶת-בָּתָּיו וְגַנְזַכָּיו וַֽעֲלִיֹּתָיו וַֽחֲדָרָיו הַפְּנִימִים וּבֵית הַכַּפֹּֽרֶת׃
Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of the houses thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper chambers thereof, and of the inner parlours thereof, and of the place of the mercy seat,
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד לִשְׁלֹמֹה בְנוֹ חֲזַק וֶֽאֱמַץ וַֽעֲשֵׂה אַל-תִּירָא וְאַל-תֵּחָת כִּי יְהוָה אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהַי עִמָּךְ לֹא יַרְפְּךָ וְלֹא יַֽעַזְבֶךָּ עַד-לִכְלוֹת כָּל-מְלֶאכֶת עֲבוֹדַת בֵּית-יְהוָֽה׃
And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it: fear not, nor be dismayed: for the LORD God, even my God, will be with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּוִיד הַמֶּלֶךְ לְכָל-הַקָּהָל שְׁלֹמֹה בְנִי אֶחָד בָּֽחַר-בּוֹ אֱלֹהִים נַעַר וָרָךְ וְהַמְּלָאכָה גְדוֹלָה כִּי לֹא לְאָדָם הַבִּירָה כִּי לַֽיהוָה אֱלֹהִֽים׃
Furthermore David the king said unto all the congregation, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great: for the palace is not for man, but for the LORD God.
