II Samuel 23

Ary izao no fara-teny nataon'i Davida: hoy Davida, zanak'i Jese, dia ny lehilahy izay voasandratra ho ambony, Ilay voahosotry ny Andriamanitr'i Jakoba sady mpanao fihirana mahafinaritra amin'ny Isiraely:

Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said,

Ny Fanahin'i Jehovah no mampiteny ahy, ary ny teniny no eo amin'ny lelako;

The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue.

Andriamanitry ny Isiraely manao hoe, eny, ny Vatolampin'ny Isiraely miteny amiko hoe: Indro ny Mpanapaka ny olona; Marina Izy sady manapaka amin'ny fahatahorana an'Andriamanitra;

The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God.

Ary izany dia toy ny fahazavan'ny maraina, raha miposaka ny masoandro, dia ilay maraina tsy misy rahona iny; Ary ny ahitra manorobona amin'ny tany noho ny hain'andro manarakaraka ny ranonorana.

And he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain.

Ary tsy toy izany indrindra amin'Andriamanitra va ny taranako? Fa fanekena mandrakizay no nataony tamiko, Voalamina amin'ny zavatra rehetra sady voatandrina; Fa ny famonjena ahy rehetra sy ny iriko rehetra, moa tsy hampitsimohiny va?

Although my house be not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he make it not to grow.

Fa ny tena ratsy fanahy rehetra kosa dia tahaka ny tsilo ariana, Fa tsy azo raisin'ny tanana izy;

But the sons of Belial shall be all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands:

Ary ny olona izay mikasika azy Dia tsy maintsy mitondra vy sy zaran-defona; Ary hodorana amin'ny afo avokoa amin'izay itoerany ireny.

But the man that shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in the same place.

Ary izao no anaran'ny lehilahy maherin'i Davida: Joseba-basebeta Takemonita no lehiben'ny mpanafika malaza; izy ilay Edino Eznita izay namely ny valon-jato lahy ka nahafaty azy tamin'ny ady indray mandeha monja.

These be the names of the mighty men whom David had: The Tachmonite that sat in the seat, chief among the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite: he lift up his spear against eight hundred, whom he slew at one time.

Ary ny manarakaraka azy dia Eleazara, zanak'i Dodo, zanak'i Ahohita, anankiray amin'izy telo lahy mahery teo amin'i Davida, raha nihaika ny Filistina izay niangona hiady ireo, ka niakatra ny lehilahy amin'ny Isiraely;

And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away:

dia nitsangana Eleazara ka namely ny Filistina mandra-pahavizan'ny tànany ka efa niraikitra tamin'ny sabatra; ary Jehovah nanao famonjena lehibe tamin'izany andro izany, ka ny haka babo ihany no sisa nanarahan'ny olona azy.

He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.

Ary ny manarakaraka azy dia Sama, zanak'i Age Hararita. Ary nony nivory ho iray toko teo amin'ny tany nisy voanemba maniry ny Filistina, ary ny olona nandositra azy,

And after him was Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a piece of ground full of lentiles: and the people fled from the Philistines.

dia nijanona teo afovoan'io tany io kosa izy ka nahazo io ary namono ny Filistina; ka dia nanao famonjena lehibe Jehovah.

But he stood in the midst of the ground, and defended it, and slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory.

Ary nisy telo lahy samy malaza avy tamin'ny telo-polo lahy nidina ka tonga tao amin'i Davida tao amin'ny zohin'i Adolama nony fararano; ary ny miaramilan'ny Filistina nitoby teo amin'ny Lohasahan'ny Refaita.

And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam: and the troop of the Philistines pitched in the valley of Rephaim.

Ary Davida dia tao amin'ny batery fiarovana tamin'izay, ary ny miaramilan'ny Filistina kosa dia tao Betlehema.

And David was then in an hold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Beth–lehem.

Ary Davida naniry ka nanao hoe: Enga anie ka hisy hampisotro rano ahy avy amin'ny fantsakana ao Betlehema, ilay ao akaikin'ny vavahady!

And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Beth–lehem, which is by the gate!

Ary ireo telo lahy mahery namaky teo amin'ny miaramilan'ny Filistina ka nanovo rano tamin'ny fantsakana tao Betlehema, izay teo anilan'ny vavahady, dia nentiny ho any amin'i Davida; kanjo tsy nety nisotro izy, fa naidiny ho an'i Jehovah iny.

And the three mighty men brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth–lehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: nevertheless he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto the LORD.

Fa hoy Davida: Sanatria, Jehovah ô, raha hanao izany aho; tsy ran'ny lehilahy izay nandeha nanao vy very ny ainy va ity? Ka dia tsy nety nisotro izy. Izany zavatra izany no nataon'ireo telo lahy mahery ireo.

And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this: is not this the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mighty men.

Ary Abisay, rahalahin'i Joaba, zanak'i Zeroia, no lehibe amin'izy telo lahy, ary izy namely ny telon-jato lahy tamin'ny lefona ka nahafaty azy, ka dia izy no nalaza tamin'izy telo lahy.

And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief among three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred, and slew them, and had the name among three.

Tsy izy va no be voninahitra noho izy telo lahy? Fa izy no lehibeny; nefa tsy nahomby ny telo lahy teo izy.

Was he not most honourable of three? therefore he was their captain: howbeit he attained not unto the first three.

Ary Benaia, zanak'i Joiada, zanaky ny lehilahy mahay tany Kabezela, izay nahavita asa be, izy no namono ny roa lahy mahery tany Moaba; ary izy no nidina ka namono ny liona tao an-davaka fantsakana tamin'ilay andro nisy oram-panala iny;

And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man, of Kabzeel, who had done many acts, he slew two lionlike men of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow:

ary izy koa no namono ilay Egyptiana makadiry be; ary ilay Egyptiana nitondra lefona teny an-tànany, nefa namorotsahan'i Benaia tamin'ny tehiny ihany izy, dia nosarihany ny lefona teny an-tànan'ilay Egyptiana, ka iny lefony iny ihany no namonoany azy.

And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: 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 slew him with his own spear.

Izany no nataon'i Benaia, zanak'i Joiada, ary tamin'izy telo lahy mahery dia izy no nalaza.

These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name among three mighty men.

Izy no nalaza noho ny telo-polo lahy, nefa tsy nahomby azy telo lahy teo izy. Ary Davida nanendry azy ho isan'ny mpanolo-tsaina azy.

He was more honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to the first three. And David set him over his guard.
