וַיָּבֹא אֶחָד מֵהַכֹּֽהֲנִים אֲשֶׁר הִגְלוּ מִשֹּׁמְרוֹן וַיֵּשֶׁב בְּבֵֽית-אֵל וַֽיְהִי מוֹרֶה אֹתָם אֵיךְ יִֽירְאוּ אֶת-יְהוָֽה׃
Then one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Beth-el, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.
וְאַנְשֵׁי בָבֶל עָשׂוּ אֶת-סֻכּוֹת בְּנוֹת וְאַנְשֵׁי-כוּת עָשׂוּ אֶת-נֵֽרְגַל וְאַנְשֵׁי חֲמָת עָשׂוּ אֶת-אֲשִׁימָֽא׃
And the men of Babylon made Succoth-benoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,
וַיִּשְׁלַח שָׁקֵה-אַשּׁוּר אֶת-תַּרְתָּן וְאֶת-רַב-סָרִיס׀ וְאֶת-רַב-רַבְשָׁקֵה מִן-לָכִישׁ אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ חִזְקִיָּהוּ בְּחֵיל כָּבֵד יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם וַֽיַּעֲלוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם וַיַּֽעֲלוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ וַיַּֽעַמְדוּ בִּתְעָלַת הַבְּרֵכָה הָֽעֶלְיוֹנָה אֲשֶׁר בִּמְסִלַּת שְׂדֵה כוֹבֵֽס׃
And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rab-shakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller's field.
עַתָּה הִנֵּה בָטַחְתָּ לְּךָ עַל-מִשְׁעֶנֶת הַקָּנֶה הָרָצוּץ הַזֶּה עַל-מִצְרַיִם אֲשֶׁר יִסָּמֵךְ אִישׁ עָלָיו וּבָא בְכַפּוֹ וּנְקָבָהּ כֵּן פַּרְעֹה מֶֽלֶךְ-מִצְרַיִם לְכָֽל-הַבֹּטְחִים עָלָֽיו׃
Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him.
עַד-בֹּאִי וְלָֽקַחְתִּי אֶתְכֶם אֶל-אֶרֶץ כְּאַרְצְכֶם אֶרֶץ דָּגָן וְתִירוֹשׁ אֶרֶץ לֶחֶם וּכְרָמִים אֶרֶץ זֵית יִצְהָר וּדְבַשׁ וִֽחְיוּ וְלֹא תָמֻתוּ וְאַֽל-תִּשְׁמְעוּ אֶל-חִזְקִיָּהוּ כִּֽי-יַסִּית אֶתְכֶם לֵאמֹר יְהוָה יַצִּילֵֽנוּ׃
Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, The LORD will deliver us.
אַיֵּה אֱלֹהֵי חֲמָת וְאַרְפָּד אַיֵּה אֱלֹהֵי סְפַרְוַיִם הֵנַע וְעִוָּה כִּֽי-הִצִּילוּ אֶת-שֹֽׁמְרוֹן מִיָּדִֽי׃
Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered Samaria out of mine hand?
וַיָּבֹא אֶלְיָקִים בֶּן-חִלְקִיָּה אֲשֶׁר-עַל-הַבַּיִת וְשֶׁבְנָא הַסֹּפֵר וְיוֹאָח בֶּן-אָסָף הַמַּזְכִּיר אֶל-חִזְקִיָּהוּ קְרוּעֵי בְגָדִים וַיַּגִּדוּ לוֹ דִּבְרֵי רַב-שָׁקֵֽה
Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rab-shakeh.
וַיְהִי כִּשְׁמֹעַ הַמֶּלֶךְ חִזְקִיָּהוּ וַיִּקְרַע אֶת-בְּגָדָיו וַיִּתְכַּס בַּשָּׂק וַיָּבֹא בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD.
וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אֵלָיו כֹּה אָמַר חִזְקִיָּהוּ יוֹם-צָרָה וְתֽוֹכֵחָה וּנְאָצָה הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה כִּי בָאוּ בָנִים עַד-מַשְׁבֵּר וְכֹחַ אַיִן לְלֵדָֽה׃
And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and blasphemy: for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.
וַיָּבֹאוּ עַבְדֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ חִזְקִיָּהוּ אֶל-יְשַֽׁעַיָֽהוּ׃
So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.
אַיּוֹ מֶֽלֶךְ-חֲמָת וּמֶלֶךְ אַרְפָּד וּמֶלֶךְ לָעִיר סְפַרְוָיִם הֵנַע וְעִוָּֽה׃
Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivah?
בְּיַד מַלְאָכֶיךָ חֵרַפְתָּ׀ אֲדֹנָי וַתֹּאמֶר (ברכב) בְּרֹב רִכְבִּי אֲנִי עָלִיתִי מְרוֹם הָרִים יַרְכְּתֵי לְבָנוֹן וְאֶכְרֹת קוֹמַת אֲרָזָיו מִבְחוֹר בְּרֹשָׁיו וְאָבוֹאָה מְלוֹן קִצֹּה יַעַר כַּרְמִלּֽוֹ׃
By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down the tall cedar trees thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel.
הֲלֹֽא-שָׁמַעְתָּ לְמֵֽרָחוֹק אֹתָהּ עָשִׂיתִי לְמִימֵי קֶדֶם וִֽיצַרְתִּיהָ עַתָּה הֲבֵיאתִיהָ וּתְהִי לַהְשׁוֹת גַּלִּים נִצִּים עָרִים בְּצֻרֽוֹת׃
Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it, and of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.
וְשִׁבְתְּךָ וְצֵֽאתְךָ וּבֹֽאֲךָ יָדָעְתִּי וְאֵת הִֽתְרַגֶּזְךָ אֵלָֽי׃
But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.
יַעַן הִתְרַגֶּזְךָ אֵלַי וְשַֽׁאֲנַנְךָ עָלָה בְאָזְנָי וְשַׂמְתִּי חַחִי בְּאַפֶּךָ וּמִתְגִּי בִּשְׂפָתֶיךָ וַהֲשִׁבֹתִיךָ בַּדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר-בָּאתָ בָּֽהּ׃
Because thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.
לָכֵן כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה אֶל-מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר לֹא יָבֹא אֶל-הָעִיר הַזֹּאת וְלֹֽא-יוֹרֶה שָׁם חֵץ וְלֹֽא-יְקַדְּמֶנָּה מָגֵן וְלֹֽא-יִשְׁפֹּךְ עָלֶיהָ סֹֽלְלָֽה׃
Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a bank against it.
בַּדֶּרֶךְ אֲשֶׁר-יָבֹא בָּהּ יָשׁוּב וְאֶל-הָעִיר הַזֹּאת לֹא יָבֹא נְאֻם-יְהוָֽה׃
By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the LORD.
בַּיָּמִים הָהֵם חָלָה חִזְקִיָּהוּ לָמוּת וַיָּבֹא אֵלָיו יְשַׁעְיָהוּ בֶן-אָמוֹץ הַנָּבִיא וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה צַו לְבֵיתֶךָ כִּי מֵת אַתָּה וְלֹא תִֽחְיֶֽה׃
In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.
וַיָּבֹא יְשַׁעְיָהוּ הַנָּבִיא אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ חִזְקִיָּהוּ וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלָיו מָה אָֽמְרוּ׀ הָֽאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה וּמֵאַיִן יָבֹאוּ אֵלֶיךָ וַיֹּאמֶר חִזְקִיָּהוּ מֵאֶרֶץ רְחוֹקָה בָּאוּ מִבָּבֶֽל׃
Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, even from Babylon.
הִנֵּה יָמִים בָּאִים וְנִשָּׂא׀ כָּל-אֲשֶׁר בְּבֵיתֶךָ וַֽאֲשֶׁר אָֽצְרוּ אֲבֹתֶיךָ עַד-הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה בָּבֶלָה לֹֽא-יִוָּתֵר דָּבָר אָמַר יְהוָֽה׃
Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.
וְיֶתֶר דִּבְרֵי חִזְקִיָּהוּ וְכָל-גְּבוּרָתוֹ וַֽאֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה אֶת-הַבְּרֵכָה וְאֶת-הַתְּעָלָה וַיָּבֵא אֶת-הַמַּיִם הָעִירָה הֲלֹא-הֵם כְּתוּבִים עַל-סֵפֶר דִּבְרֵי הַיָּמִים לְמַלְכֵי יְהוּדָֽה׃
And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool, and a conduit, and brought water into the city, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
לָכֵן כֹּֽה-אָמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הִנְנִי מֵבִיא רָעָה עַל-יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם וִֽיהוּדָה אֲשֶׁר כָּל-(שמעיו) שֹׁמְעָהּ תִּצַּלְנָה שְׁתֵּי אָזְנָֽיו׃
Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Behold, I am bringing such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle.
עֲלֵה אֶל-חִלְקִיָּהוּ הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדוֹל וְיַתֵּם אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף הַמּוּבָא בֵּית יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר אָֽסְפוּ שֹֽׁמְרֵי הַסַּף מֵאֵת הָעָֽם׃
Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may sum the silver which is brought into the house of the LORD, which the keepers of the door have gathered of the people:
וַיָּבֹא שָׁפָן הַסֹּפֵר אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ וַיָּשֶׁב אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּבָר וַיֹּאמֶר הִתִּיכוּ עֲבָדֶיךָ אֶת-הַכֶּסֶף הַנִּמְצָא בַבַּיִת וַֽיִּתְּנֻהוּ עַל-יַד עֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה הַמֻּפְקָדִים בֵּית יְהוָֽה׃
And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD.
כֹּה אָמַר יְהוָה הִנְנִי מֵבִיא רָעָה אֶל-הַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה וְעַל-יֹֽשְׁבָיו אֵת כָּל-דִּבְרֵי הַסֵּפֶר אֲשֶׁר קָרָא מֶלֶךְ יְהוּדָֽה׃
Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read:
לָכֵן הִנְנִי אֹֽסִפְךָ עַל-אֲבֹתֶיךָ וְנֶֽאֱסַפְתָּ אֶל-קִבְרֹתֶיךָ בְּשָׁלוֹם וְלֹֽא-תִרְאֶינָה עֵינֶיךָ בְּכֹל הָֽרָעָה אֲשֶׁר-אֲנִי מֵבִיא עַל-הַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה וַיָּשִׁבוּ אֶת-הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּבָֽר׃
Behold therefore, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered into thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.
וַיָּבֵא אֶת-כָּל-הַכֹּֽהֲנִים מֵֽעָרֵי יְהוּדָה וַיְטַמֵּא אֶת-הַבָּמוֹת אֲשֶׁר קִטְּרוּ-שָׁמָּה הַכֹּהֲנִים מִגֶּבַע עַד-בְּאֵר שָׁבַע וְנָתַץ אֶת-בָּמוֹת הַשְּׁעָרִים אֲשֶׁר-פֶּתַח שַׁעַר יְהוֹשֻׁעַ שַׂר-הָעִיר אֲשֶֽׁר-עַל-שְׂמֹאול אִישׁ בְּשַׁעַר הָעִֽיר׃
And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beer-sheba, and brake down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man's left hand at the gate of the city.
וַיַּשְׁבֵּת אֶת-הַסּוּסִים אֲשֶׁר נָֽתְנוּ מַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה לַשֶּׁמֶשׁ מִבֹּא בֵית-יְהוָה אֶל-לִשְׁכַּת נְתַן-מֶלֶךְ הַסָּרִיס אֲשֶׁר בַּפַּרְוָרִים וְאֶת-מַרְכְּבוֹת הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ שָׂרַף בָּאֵֽשׁ׃
And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the LORD, by the chamber of Nathan-melech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.
וַיֹּאמֶר מָה הַצִּיּוּן הַלָּז אֲשֶׁר אֲנִי רֹאֶה וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ אֵלָיו אַנְשֵׁי הָעִיר הַקֶּבֶר אִישׁ-הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֲשֶׁר-בָּא מִֽיהוּדָה וַיִּקְרָא אֶת-הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה אֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתָ עַל הַמִּזְבַּח בֵּֽית-אֵֽל׃
Then he said, What title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou hast done against the altar of Beth-el.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַנִּיחוּ לוֹ אִישׁ אַל-יָנַע עַצְמוֹתָיו וַֽיְמַלְּטוּ עַצְמוֹתָיו אֵת עַצְמוֹת הַנָּבִיא אֲשֶׁר-בָּא מִשֹּֽׁמְרֽוֹן׃
And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.
וַיַּרְכִּבֻהוּ עֲבָדָיו מֵת מִמְּגִדּוֹ וַיְבִאֻהוּ יְרוּשָׁלִַם וַֽיִּקְבְּרֻהוּ בִּקְבֻֽרָתוֹ וַיִּקַּח עַם-הָאָרֶץ אֶת-יְהֽוֹאָחָז בֶּן-יֹאשִׁיָּהוּ וַיִּמְשְׁחוּ אֹתוֹ וַיַּמְלִיכוּ אֹתוֹ תַּחַת אָבִֽיו׃
And his servants carried chariot him in a dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father's stead.
וַיַּֽאַסְרֵהוּ פַרְעֹה נְכֹה בְרִבְלָה בְּאֶרֶץ חֲמָת (במלך) מִמְּלֹךְ בִּירֽוּשָׁלִָם וַיִּתֶּן-עֹנֶשׁ עַל-הָאָרֶץ מֵאָה כִכַּר-כֶּסֶף וְכִכַּר זָהָֽב׃
And Pharaoh-nechoh put him in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.
וַיַּמְלֵךְ פַּרְעֹה נְכֹה אֶת-אֶלְיָקִים בֶּן-יֹֽאשִׁיָּהוּ תַּחַת יֹֽאשִׁיָּהוּ אָבִיו וַיַּסֵּב אֶת-שְׁמוֹ יְהֽוֹיָקִים וְאֶת-יְהֽוֹאָחָז לָקָח וַיָּבֹא מִצְרַיִם וַיָּמָת שָֽׁם׃
And Pharaoh-nechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and turned his name to Jehoiakim, and took away: Jehoahaz and he came to Egypt, and died there.
בָּעֵת הַהִיא (עלה) עָלוּ עַבְדֵי נְבֻֽכַדְנֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל יְרֽוּשָׁלִָם וַתָּבֹא הָעִיר בַּמָּצֽוֹר׃
At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.
וַיָּבֹא נְבֻֽכַדְנֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל עַל-הָעִיר וַֽעֲבָדָיו צָרִים עָלֶֽיהָ׃
And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants did besiege it.
וְאֵת כָּל-אַנְשֵׁי הַחַיִל שִׁבְעַת אֲלָפִים וְהֶֽחָרָשׁ וְהַמַּסְגֵּר אֶלֶף הַכֹּל גִּבּוֹרִים עֹשֵׂי מִלְחָמָה וַיְבִיאֵם מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל גּוֹלָה בָּבֶֽלָה׃
And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and craftsmen and smiths a thousand, all that were strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
וַיְהִי בִשְׁנַת הַתְּשִׁיעִית לְמָלְכוֹ בַּחֹדֶשׁ הָֽעֲשִׂירִי בֶּֽעָשׂוֹר לַחֹדֶשׁ בָּא נְבֻֽכַדְנֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל הוּא וְכָל-חֵילוֹ עַל-יְרֽוּשָׁלִַם וַיִּחַן עָלֶיהָ וַיִּבְנוּ עָלֶיהָ דָּיֵק סָבִֽיב׃
And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it; and they built forts against it round about.
וַתָּבֹא הָעִיר בַּמָּצוֹר עַד עַשְׁתֵּי עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה לַמֶּלֶךְ צִדְקִיָּֽהוּ׃
And the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.
וְאֶת-בְּנֵי צִדְקִיָּהוּ שָֽׁחֲטוּ לְעֵינָיו וְאֶת-עֵינֵי צִדְקִיָּהוּ עִוֵּר וַיַּֽאַסְרֵהוּ בַֽנְחֻשְׁתַּיִם וַיְבִאֵהוּ בָּבֶֽל׃
And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.
וּבַחֹדֶשׁ הַֽחֲמִישִׁי בְּשִׁבְעָה לַחֹדֶשׁ הִיא שְׁנַת תְּשַֽׁע-עֶשְׂרֵה שָׁנָה לַמֶּלֶךְ נְבֻֽכַדְנֶאצַּר מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל בָּא נְבֽוּזַרְאֲדָן רַב-טַבָּחִים עֶבֶד מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzar-adan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
וַיַּךְ אֹתָם מֶלֶךְ בָּבֶל וַיְמִיתֵם בְּרִבְלָה בְּאֶרֶץ חֲמָת וַיִּגֶל יְהוּדָה מֵעַל אַדְמָתֽוֹ׃
And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away out of their land.
וַיִּשְׁמְעוּ כָל-שָׂרֵי הַֽחֲיָלִים הֵמָּה וְהָֽאֲנָשִׁים כִּֽי-הִפְקִיד מֶֽלֶךְ-בָּבֶל אֶת-גְּדַלְיָהוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶל-גְּדַלְיָהוּ הַמִּצְפָּה וְיִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָה וְיֽוֹחָנָן בֶּן-קָרֵחַ וּשְׂרָיָה בֶן-תַּנְחֻמֶת הַנְּטֹֽפָתִי וְיַֽאֲזַנְיָהוּ בֶּן-הַמַּעֲכָתִי הֵמָּה וְאַנְשֵׁיהֶֽם׃
And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, there came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.
וַיְהִי׀ בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַשְּׁבִיעִי בָּא יִשְׁמָעֵאל בֶּן-נְתַנְיָה בֶּן-אֱלִישָׁמָע מִזֶּרַע הַמְּלוּכָה וַֽעֲשָׂרָה אֲנָשִׁים אִתּוֹ וַיַּכּוּ אֶת-גְּדַלְיָהוּ וַיָּמֹת וְאֶת-הַיְּהוּדִים וְאֶת-הַכַּשְׂדִּים אֲשֶׁר-הָיוּ אִתּוֹ בַּמִּצְפָּֽה׃
But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him at Mizpah.
וַיָּקֻמוּ כָל-הָעָם מִקָּטֹן וְעַד-גָּדוֹל וְשָׂרֵי הַֽחֲיָלִים וַיָּבֹאוּ מִצְרָיִם כִּי יָֽרְאוּ מִפְּנֵי כַשְׂדִּֽים׃
And all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the armies, arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraid of the Chaldees.
וְאַחַר בָּא חֶצְרוֹן אֶל-בַּת-מָכִיר אֲבִי גִלְעָד וְהוּא לְקָחָהּ וְהוּא בֶּן-שִׁשִּׁים שָׁנָה וַתֵּלֶד לוֹ אֶת-שְׂגֽוּב׃
And afterward Hezron went in to the daughter of Machir the father of Gilead, whom he married when he was threescore years old; and she bare him Segub.
וּמִשְׁפְּחוֹת סֹֽפְרִים (ישבו) יֹשְׁבֵי יַעְבֵּץ תִּרְעָתִים שִׁמְעָתִים שֽׂוּכָתִים הֵמָּה הַקִּינִים הַבָּאִים מֵֽחַמַּת אֲבִי בֵית-רֵכָֽב׃
And the families of the scribes which dwelt at Jabez; the Tirathites, the Shimeathites, and Suchathites. These are the Kenites that came of Hemath, the father of the house of Rechab.
וַיִּקְרָא יַעְבֵּץ לֵֽאלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵאמֹר אִם-בָּרֵךְ תְּבָרֲכֵנִי וְהִרְבִּיתָ אֶת-גְּבוּלִי וְהָֽיְתָה יָֽדְךָ עִמִּי וְעָשִׂיתָ מֵּֽרָעָה לְבִלְתִּי עָצְבִּי וַיָּבֵא אֱלֹהִים אֵת אֲשֶׁר-שָׁאָֽל׃
And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.
אֵלֶּה הַבָּאִים בְּשֵׁמוֹת נְשִׂיאִים בְּמִשְׁפְּחוֹתָם וּבֵית אֲבוֹתֵיהֶם פָּֽרְצוּ לָרֽוֹב׃
These mentioned by their names were princes in their families: and the house of their fathers increased greatly.
וַיָּבֹאוּ אֵלֶּה הַכְּתוּבִים בְּשֵׁמוֹת בִּימֵי׀ יְחִזְקִיָּהוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-יְהוּדָה וַיַּכּוּ אֶת-אָֽהֳלֵיהֶם וְאֶת-(המעינים) הַמְּעוּנִים אֲשֶׁר נִמְצְאוּ-שָׁמָּה וַיַּֽחֲרִימֻם עַד-הַיּוֹם הַזֶּה וַיֵּֽשְׁבוּ תַּחְתֵּיהֶם כִּֽי-מִרְעֶה לְצֹאנָם שָֽׁם׃
And these written by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and smote their tents, and the habitations that were found there, and destroyed them utterly unto this day, and dwelt in their rooms: because there was pasture there for their flocks.
וְלַמִּזְרָח יָשַׁב עַד-לְבוֹא מִדְבָּרָה לְמִן-הַנָּהָר פְּרָת כִּי מִקְנֵיהֶם רָבוּ בְּאֶרֶץ גִּלְעָֽד׃
And eastward he inhabited unto the entering in of the wilderness from the river Euphrates: because their cattle were multiplied in the land of Gilead.
וַיָּעַר אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶת-רוּחַ׀ פּוּל מֶֽלֶךְ-אַשּׁוּר וְאֶת-רוּחַ תִּלְּגַת פִּלְנֶסֶר מֶלֶךְ אַשּׁוּר וַיַּגְלֵם לָרֽאוּבֵנִי וְלַגָּדִי וְלַֽחֲצִי שֵׁבֶט מְנַשֶּׁה וַיְבִיאֵם לַחְלַח וְחָבוֹר וְהָרָא וּנְהַר גּוֹזָן עַד הַיּוֹם הַזֶּֽה׃
And the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul king of Assyria, and the spirit of Tilgath-pilneser king of Assyria, and he carried them away, even the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasseh, and brought them unto Halah, and Habor, and Hara, and to the river Gozan, unto this day.
וַיִּתְאַבֵּל אֶפְרַיִם אֲבִיהֶם יָמִים רַבִּים וַיָּבֹאוּ אֶחָיו לְנַֽחֲמֽוֹ׃
And Ephraim their father mourned many days, and his brethren came to comfort him.
וַיָּבֹא אֶל-אִשְׁתּוֹ וַתַּהַר וַתֵּלֶד בֵּן וַיִּקְרָא אֶת-שְׁמוֹ בְּרִיעָה כִּי בְרָעָה הָֽיְתָה בְּבֵיתֽוֹ׃
And when he went in to his wife, she conceived, and bare a son, and he called his name Beriah, because it went evil with his house.
וַֽאֲחֵיהֶם בְּחַצְרֵיהֶם לָבוֹא לְשִׁבְעַת הַיָּמִים מֵעֵת אֶל-עֵת עִם-אֵֽלֶּה׃
And their brethren, which were in their villages, were to come after seven days from time to time with them.
וּמֵהֶם עַל-כְּלֵי הָֽעֲבוֹדָה כִּֽי-בְמִסְפָּר יְבִיאוּם וּבְמִסְפָּר יֽוֹצִיאֽוּם׃
And certain of them had the charge of the ministering vessels, that they should bring them in and out by tale.
וַיֹּאמֶר שָׁאוּל אֶל-נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו שְׁלֹף חַרְבְּךָ׀ וְדָקְרֵנִי בָהּ פֶּן-יָבֹאוּ הָֽעֲרֵלִים הָאֵלֶּה וְהִתְעַלְּלוּ-בִי וְלֹא אָבָה נֹשֵׂא כֵלָיו כִּי יָרֵא מְאֹד וַיִּקַּח שָׁאוּל אֶת-הַחֶרֶב וַיִּפֹּל עָלֶֽיהָ׃
Then said Saul to his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. So Saul took a sword, and fell upon it.
וַיִּרְאוּ כָּל-אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר-בָּעֵמֶק כִּי נָסוּ וְכִי-מֵתוּ שָׁאוּל וּבָנָיו וַיַּֽעַזְבוּ עָֽרֵיהֶם וַיָּנֻסוּ וַיָּבֹאוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים וַיֵּֽשְׁבוּ בָּהֶֽם׃
And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
וַֽיְהִי מִֽמָּחֳרָת וַיָּבֹאוּ פְלִשְׁתִּים לְפַשֵּׁט אֶת-הַֽחֲלָלִים וַֽיִּמְצְאוּ אֶת-שָׁאוּל וְאֶת-בָּנָיו נֹֽפְלִים בְּהַר גִּלְבֹּֽעַ׃
And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa.
וַיָּקוּמוּ כָּל-אִישׁ חַיִל וַיִּשְׂאוּ אֶת-גּוּפַת שָׁאוּל וְאֵת גּוּפֹת בָּנָיו וַיְבִיאוּם יָבֵישָׁה וַיִּקְבְּרוּ אֶת-עַצְמֽוֹתֵיהֶם תַּחַת הָֽאֵלָה בְּיָבֵשׁ וַיָּצוּמוּ שִׁבְעַת יָמִֽים׃
They arose, all the valiant men, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
גַּם-תְּמוֹל גַּם-שִׁלְשׁוֹם גַּם בִּֽהְיוֹת שָׁאוּל מֶלֶךְ אַתָּה הַמּוֹצִיא וְהַמֵּבִיא אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ לְךָ אַתָּה תִרְעֶה אֶת-עַמִּי אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאַתָּה תִּֽהְיֶה נָגִיד עַל עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
And moreover in time past, even when Saul was king, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD thy God said unto thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be ruler over my people Israel.
וַיָּבֹאוּ כָּל-זִקְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-הַמֶּלֶךְ חֶבְרוֹנָה וַיִּכְרֹת לָהֶם דָּוִיד בְּרִית בְּחֶבְרוֹן לִפְנֵי יְהוָה וַיִּמְשְׁחוּ אֶת-דָּוִיד לְמֶלֶךְ עַל-יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּדְבַר יְהוָה בְּיַד-שְׁמוּאֵֽל׃
Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the LORD; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the LORD by Samuel.
וַיֹּאמְרוּ יֹֽשְׁבֵי יְבוּס לְדָוִיד לֹא תָבוֹא הֵנָּה וַיִּלְכֹּד דָּוִיד אֶת-מְצֻדַת צִיּוֹן הִיא עִיר דָּוִֽיד׃
And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come hither. Nevertheless David took the castle of Zion, which is the city of David.
וַיִּבְקְעוּ הַשְּׁלֹשָׁה בְּמַֽחֲנֵה פְלִשְׁתִּים וַיִּֽשְׁאֲבוּ-מַיִם מִבּוֹר בֵּֽית-לֶחֶם אֲשֶׁר בַּשַּׁעַר וַיִּשְׂאוּ וַיָּבִאוּ אֶל-דָּוִיד וְלֹֽא-אָבָה דָוִיד לִשְׁתּוֹתָם וַיְנַסֵּךְ אֹתָם לַֽיהוָֽה׃
And the three brake through the host 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 David would not drink of it, but poured it out to the LORD,
וַיֹּאמֶר חָלִילָה לִּי מֵֽאֱלֹהַי מֵֽעֲשׂוֹת זֹאת הֲדַם הָֽאֲנָשִׁים הָאֵלֶּה אֶשְׁתֶּה בְנַפְשׁוֹתָם כִּי בְנַפְשׁוֹתָם הֱבִיאוּם וְלֹא אָבָה לִשְׁתּוֹתָם אֵלֶּה עָשׂוּ שְׁלֹשֶׁת הַגִּבּוֹרִֽים׃
And said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this thing: shall I drink the blood of these men that have put their lives in jeopardy? for with the jeopardy of their lives they brought it. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mightiest.
מִן-הַשְּׁלוֹשָׁה בַשְּׁנַיִם נִכְבָּד וַיְהִי לָהֶם לְשָׂר וְעַד-הַשְּׁלוֹשָׁה לֹא-בָֽא׃
Of the three, he was more honourable than the two; for he was their captain: howbeit he attained not to the first three.
מִן-הַשְּׁלוֹשִׁים הִנּוֹ נִכְבָּד הוּא וְאֶל-הַשְּׁלֹשָׁה לֹא-בָא וַיְשִׂימֵהוּ דָוִיד עַל-מִשְׁמַעְתּֽוֹ׃
Behold, he was honourable among the thirty, but attained not to the first three: and David set him over his guard.
וְאֵלֶּה הַבָּאִים אֶל-דָּוִיד לְצִיקְלַג עוֹד עָצוּר מִפְּנֵי שָׁאוּל בֶּן-קִישׁ וְהֵמָּה בַּגִּבּוֹרִים עֹֽזְרֵי הַמִּלְחָמָֽה׃
Now these are they that came to David to Ziklag, while he yet kept himself close because of Saul the son of Kish: and they were among the mighty men, helpers of the war.
וַיָּבֹאוּ מִן-בְּנֵי בִנְיָמִן וִֽיהוּדָה עַד-לַמְצָד לְדָוִֽיד׃
And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the hold unto David.
וַיֵּצֵא דָוִיד לִפְנֵיהֶם וַיַּעַן וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם אִם-לְשָׁלוֹם בָּאתֶם אֵלַי לְעָזְרֵנִי יִֽהְיֶה-לִּי עֲלֵיכֶם לֵבָב לְיָחַד וְאִֽם-לְרַמּוֹתַנִי לְצָרַי בְּלֹא חָמָס בְּכַפַּי יֵרֶא אֱלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵינוּ וְיוֹכַֽח׃
And David went out to meet them, and answered and said unto them, If ye be come peaceably unto me to help me, mine heart shall be knit unto you: but if ye be come to betray me to mine enemies, seeing there is no wrong in mine hands, the God of our fathers look thereon, and rebuke it.
וּמִֽמְּנַשֶּׁה נָֽפְלוּ עַל-דָּוִיד בְּבֹאוֹ עִם-פְּלִשְׁתִּים עַל-שָׁאוּל לַמִּלְחָמָה וְלֹא עֲזָרֻם כִּי בְעֵצָה שִׁלְּחֻהוּ סַרְנֵי פְלִשְׁתִּים לֵאמֹר בְּרָאשֵׁינוּ יִפּוֹל אֶל-אֲדֹנָיו שָׁאֽוּל׃
And there fell some of Manasseh to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle: but they helped them not: for the lords of the Philistines upon advisement sent him away, saying, He will fall to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads.
כִּי לְעֶת-יוֹם בְּיוֹם יָבֹאוּ עַל-דָּוִיד לְעָזְרוֹ עַד-לְמַֽחֲנֶה גָדוֹל כְּמַֽחֲנֵה אֱלֹהִֽים׃
For at that time day by day there came to David to help him, until it was a great host, like the host of God.
וְאֵלֶּה מִסְפְּרֵי רָאשֵׁי הֶֽחָלוּץ לַצָּבָא בָּאוּ עַל-דָּוִיד חֶבְרוֹנָה לְהָסֵב מַלְכוּת שָׁאוּל אֵלָיו כְּפִי יְהוָֽה׃
And these are the numbers of the bands that were ready armed to the war, and came to David to Hebron, to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of the LORD.
וּמֵֽחֲצִי מַטֵּה מְנַשֶּׁה שְׁמוֹנָה עָשָׂר אָלֶף אֲשֶׁר נִקְּבוּ בְּשֵׁמוֹת לָבוֹא לְהַמְלִיךְ אֶת-דָּוִֽיד׃
And of the half tribe of Manasseh eighteen thousand, which were expressed by name, to come and make David king.
כָּל-אֵלֶּה אַנְשֵׁי מִלְחָמָה עֹדְרֵי מַֽעֲרָכָה בְּלֵבָב שָׁלֵם בָּאוּ חֶבְרוֹנָה לְהַמְלִיךְ אֶת-דָּוִיד עַל-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וְגַם כָּל-שֵׁרִית יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵב אֶחָד לְהַמְלִיךְ אֶת-דָּוִֽיד׃
All these men of war, that could keep rank, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.
וְגַם הַקְּרֽוֹבִים-אֲלֵיהֶם עַד-יִשָׂשכָר וּזְבֻלוּן וְנַפְתָּלִי מְבִיאִים לֶחֶם בַּֽחֲמוֹרִים וּבַגְּמַלִּים וּבַפְּרָדִים׀ וּֽבַבָּקָר מַֽאֲכָל קֶמַח דְּבֵלִים וְצִמּוּקִים וְיַֽיִן-וְשֶׁמֶן וּבָקָר וְצֹאן לָרֹב כִּי שִׂמְחָה בְּיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
Moreover they that were nigh them, even unto Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought bread on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, and meat, meal, cakes of figs, and bunches of raisins, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and sheep abundantly: for there was joy in Israel.
וַיַּקְהֵל דָּוִיד אֶת-כָּל-יִשְׂרָאֵל מִן-שִׁיחוֹר מִצְרַיִם וְעַד-לְבוֹא חֲמָת לְהָבִיא אֶת-אֲרוֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִים מִקִּרְיַת יְעָרִֽים׃
So David gathered together, all Israel from Shihor of Egypt even unto the entering of Hemath, to bring the ark of God from Kirjath-jearim.
וַיָּבֹאוּ עַד-גֹּרֶן כִּידֹן וַיִּשְׁלַח עֻזָּא אֶת-יָדוֹ לֶֽאֱחֹז אֶת-הָאָרוֹן כִּי שָֽׁמְטוּ הַבָּקָֽר׃
And when they came unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.
וַיִּירָא דָוִיד אֶת-הָאֱלֹהִים בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא לֵאמֹר הֵיךְ אָבִיא אֵלַי אֵת אֲרוֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִֽים׃
And David was afraid of God that day, saying, How shall I bring the ark of God home to me?
וּפְלִשְׁתִּים בָּאוּ וַֽיִּפְשְׁטוּ בְּעֵמֶק רְפָאִֽים׃
And the Philistines came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.
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.
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.
הָבוּ לַֽיהוָה כְּבוֹד שְׁמוֹ שְׂאוּ מִנְחָה וּבֹאוּ לְפָנָיו הִשְׁתַּֽחֲווּ לַֽיהוָה בְּהַדְרַת-קֹֽדֶשׁ׃
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
אָז יְרַנְּנוּ עֲצֵי הַיָּעַר מִלִּפְנֵי יְהוָה כִּי-בָא לִשְׁפּוֹט אֶת-הָאָֽרֶץ׃
Then shall the trees of the wood sing out at the presence of the LORD, because he cometh to judge the earth.
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?
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.
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.
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.
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;
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?
וַיִּשְׂכְּרוּ לָהֶם שְׁנַיִם וּשְׁלֹשִׁים אֶלֶף רֶכֶב וְאֶת-מֶלֶךְ מַֽעֲכָה וְאֶת-עַמּוֹ וַיָּבֹאוּ וַֽיַּחֲנוּ לִפְנֵי מֵידְבָא וּבְנֵי עַמּוֹן נֶֽאֶסְפוּ מֵעָרֵיהֶם וַיָּבֹאוּ לַמִּלְחָמָֽה׃
So they hired thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people; who came and pitched before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
וַיֵּֽצְאוּ בְּנֵי עַמּוֹן וַיַּֽעַרְכוּ מִלְחָמָה פֶּתַח הָעִיר וְהַמְּלָכִים אֲשֶׁר-בָּאוּ לְבַדָּם בַּשָּׂדֶֽה׃
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.
וּבְנֵי עַמּוֹן רָאוּ כִּי-נָס אֲרָם וַיָּנוּסוּ גַם-הֵם מִפְּנֵי אַבְשַׁי אָחִיו וַיָּבֹאוּ הָעִירָה וַיָּבֹא יוֹאָב יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
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.
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.
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.
וּדְבַר-הַמֶּלֶךְ חָזַק עַל-יוֹאָב וַיֵּצֵא יוֹאָב וַיִּתְהַלֵּךְ בְּכָל-יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיָּבֹא יְרֽוּשָׁלִָֽם׃
Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Wherefore Joab departed, and went throughout all Israel, and came to Jerusalem.
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
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.
