1 Chronicles 11

1Then all Israel came to David at Hebron, saying, “Indeed, we are your bone and your flesh.

καὶ ἦλθεν πᾶς Ισραηλ πρὸς Δαυιδ ἐν Χεβρων λέγοντες ἰδοὺ ὀστᾶ σου καὶ σάρκες σου ἡμεῖς

2Also, in time past, even when Saul was king, it was you who led Israel in and out. And the Lord your God said to you, 'You shall feed My people Israel, and be a ruler over Israel.' '

καὶ ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην ὄντος Σαουλ βασιλέως σὺ ἦσθα ὁ ἐξάγων καὶ εἰσάγων τὸν Ισραηλ καὶ εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεός σού σοι σὺ ποιμανεῖς τὸν λαόν μου τὸν Ισραηλ καὶ σὺ ἔσῃ εἰς ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ Ισραηλ

3Therefore all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and David made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord. And they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the Lord by Samuel.

καὶ ἦλθον πάντες πρεσβύτεροι Ισραηλ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα εἰς Χεβρων καὶ διέθετο αὐτοῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυιδ διαθήκην ἐν Χεβρων ἐναντίον κυρίου καὶ ἔχρισαν τὸν Δαυιδ εἰς βασιλέα ἐπὶ Ισραηλ κατὰ τὸν λόγον κυρίου διὰ χειρὸς Σαμουηλ

4And the king and all Israel went to Jerusalem—this is Jebu—and there the Jebusites were inhabiting the land.

καὶ ἐπορεύθη ὁ βασιλεὺς καὶ ἄνδρες Ισραηλ εἰς Ιερουσαλημ αὕτη Ιεβους καὶ ἐκεῖ οἱ Ιεβουσαῖοι οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν γῆν

5And the people inhabiting Jebu said to David, 'You shall not enter here!' But he seized the stronghold of Mount Zion, which is the City of David.

εἶπαν δὲ οἱ κατοικοῦντες Ιεβους τῷ Δαυιδ οὐκ εἰσελεύσῃ ὧδε καὶ προκατελάβετο τὴν περιοχὴν Σιων αὕτη ἡ πόλις Δαυιδ

6And David said, 'Whoever first strikes the Jebusites shall be chief and captain.' And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, went up first and became chief.

καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πᾶς τύπτων Ιεβουσαῖον ἐν πρώτοις καὶ ἔσται εἰς ἄρχοντα καὶ εἰς στρατηγόν καὶ ἀνέβη ἐπ᾿ αὐτὴν ἐν πρώτοις Ιωαβ υἱὸς Σαρουια καὶ ἐγένετο εἰς ἄρχοντα

7Then David dwelt in the stronghold; thereafter he called it the City of David.

καὶ ἐκάθισεν Δαυιδ ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ διὰ τοῦτο ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὴν πόλιν Δαυιδ

8And he waged war and took the city; around it he fortified the city.

καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν τὴν πόλιν κύκλῳ καὶ ἐπολέμησεν καὶ ἔλαβεν τὴν πόλιν

9So David grew ever stronger, and the Lord Almighty was with him.

καὶ ἐπορεύετο Δαυιδ πορευόμενος καὶ μεγαλυνόμενος καὶ κύριος παντοκράτωρ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ

10Now these were the heads of the mighty men whom David had with him, who strengthened themselves in his kingdom, with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the Lord regarding Israel.

καὶ οὗτοι οἱ ἄρχοντες τῶν δυνατῶν οἳ ἦσαν τῷ Δαυιδ οἱ κατισχύοντες μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ αὐτοῦ μετὰ παντὸς Ισραηλ τοῦ βασιλεῦσαι αὐτὸν κατὰ τὸν λόγον κυρίου ἐπὶ Ισραηλ

11And this is the number of the mighty men whom David had: Jashobeam the son of a Hachmonite, chief of the captains; he lifted up his spear against three hundred and killed them at one time.

καὶ οὗτος ὁ ἀριθμὸς τῶν δυνατῶν τοῦ Δαυιδ Ιεσεβααλ υἱὸς Αχαμανι πρῶτος τῶν τριάκοντα οὗτος ἐσπάσατο τὴν ῥομφαίαν αὐτοῦ ἅπαξ ἐπὶ τριακοσίους τραυματίας ἐν καιρῷ ἑνί

12After him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, who was one of the three mighty men.

καὶ μετ᾿ αὐτὸν Ελεαζαρ υἱὸς Δωδαι ὁ Αχωχι οὗτος ἦν ἐν τοῖς τρισὶν δυνατοῖς

13He was with David at Pasdammim, and the Philistines gathered there for battle, near a field full of barley. And the people fled from the sight of the Philistines.

οὗτος ἦν μετὰ Δαυιδ ἐν Φασοδομιν καὶ οἱ ἀλλόφυλοι συνήχθησαν ἐκεῖ εἰς πόλεμον καὶ ἦν μερὶς τοῦ ἀγροῦ πλήρης κριθῶν καὶ ὁ λαὸς ἔφυγεν ἀπὸ προσώπου ἀλλοφύλων

14And he stood in the midst of the field and preserved it, and killed the Philistines. The Lord brought about a great deliverance.

καὶ ἔστη ἐν μέσῳ τῆς μερίδος καὶ ἔσωσεν αὐτὴν καὶ ἐπάταξεν τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους καὶ ἐποίησεν κύριος σωτηρίαν μεγάλην

15Now three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock towards David, to the cave of Adullam. The encampment of the Philistines was set up in the valley of Rephaim.

καὶ κατέβησαν τρεῖς ἐκ τῶν τριάκοντα ἀρχόντων εἰς τὴν πέτραν πρὸς Δαυιδ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον Οδολλαμ καὶ παρεμβολὴ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων παρεμβεβλήκει ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι τῶν γιγάντων

16David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem.

καὶ Δαυιδ τότε ἐν τῇ περιοχῇ καὶ τὸ σύστεμα τῶν ἀλλοφύλων τότε ἐν Βαιθλεεμ

17And David said with longing, 'Oh, that someone would give me a drink of water from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!'

καὶ ἐπεθύμησεν Δαυιδ καὶ εἶπεν τίς ποτιεῖ με ὕδωρ ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου Βαιθλεεμ τοῦ ἐν τῇ πύλῃ

18So the three broke through the camp of the Philistines, drew water from the well of Bethlehem by the gate, and took it and brought some to David. Nevertheless, David did not drink it, but poured it out to the Lord.

καὶ διέρρηξαν οἱ τρεῖς τὴν παρεμβολὴν τῶν ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ὑδρεύσαντο ὕδωρ ἐκ τοῦ λάκκου τοῦ ἐν Βαιθλεεμ ὃς ἦν ἐν τῇ πύλῃ καὶ ἔλαβον καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς Δαυιδ καὶ οὐκ ἠθέλησεν Δαυιδ τοῦ πιεῖν αὐτὸ καὶ ἔσπεισεν αὐτὸ τῷ κυρίῳ

19And he said, 'God be merciful to me. Should I do what was spoken? Shall I drink the blood of these men with their lives? For they brought it with their lives in peril.' Therefore he was not willing to drink it. The three mighty men did these things.

καὶ εἶπεν ἵλεώς μοι ὁ θεὸς τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο εἰ αἷμα ἀνδρῶν τούτων πίομαι ἐν ψυχαῖς αὐτῶν ὅτι ἐν ψυχαῖς αὐτῶν ἤνεγκαν αὐτό καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο πιεῖν αὐτό ταῦτα ἐποίησαν οἱ τρεῖς δυνατοί

20Abishai the brother of Joab was chief of another three. He had lifted up his spear against three hundred men, killed them, and won a name among these three.

καὶ Αβεσσα ἀδελφὸς Ιωαβ οὗτος ἦν ἄρχων τῶν τριῶν οὗτος ἐσπάσατο τὴν ῥομφαίαν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τριακοσίους τραυματίας ἐν καιρῷ ἑνί καὶ οὗτος ἦν ὀνομαστὸς ἐν τοῖς τρισίν

21Of the three he was more favored than the other two men, and was chief over them. But of the three of them, he did not go.

ἀπὸ τῶν τριῶν ὑπὲρ τοὺς δύο ἔνδοξος καὶ ἦν αὐτοῖς εἰς ἄρχοντα καὶ ἕως τῶν τριῶν οὐκ ἤρχετο

22Benaiah was the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man from Kabzeel, who had done many deeds. He had killed two ruffians of Moab. He also had gone down and killed a lion in the midst of a pit on a snowy day.

καὶ Βαναιας υἱὸς Ιωδαε υἱὸς ἀνδρὸς δυνατοῦ πολλὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ ὑπὲρ Καβασαηλ οὗτος ἐπάταξεν τοὺς δύο αριηλ Μωαβ καὶ οὗτος κατέβη καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὸν λέοντα ἐν τῷ λάκκῳ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ χιόνος

23And he killed an Egyptian, a man of great height, five cubits tall. In the hand of the Egyptian there was a spear like a weaver's beam, and he went down to him with a staff, snatched the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear.

καὶ οὗτος ἐπάταξεν τὸν ἄνδρα τὸν Αἰγύπτιον ἄνδρα ὁρατὸν πεντάπηχυν καὶ ἐν χειρὶ τοῦ Αἰγυπτίου δόρυ ὡς ἀντίον ὑφαινόντων καὶ κατέβη ἐπ᾿ αὐτὸν Βαναιας ἐν ῥάβδῳ καὶ ἀφείλατο ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς τοῦ Αἰγυπτίου τὸ δόρυ καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ δόρατι αὐτοῦ

24These things Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did, and won a name among three mighty men.

ταῦτα ἐποίησεν Βαναιας υἱὸς Ιωδαε καὶ τούτῳ ὄνομα ἐν τοῖς τρισὶν τοῖς δυνατοῖς

25Indeed, he was honored more than this thirty, but he did not attain to the first three. And David appointed him over his family.

ὑπὲρ τοὺς τριάκοντα ἔνδοξος οὗτος καὶ πρὸς τοὺς τρεῖς οὐκ ἤρχετο καὶ κατέστησεν αὐτὸν Δαυιδ ἐπὶ τὴν πατριὰν αὐτοῦ

26And the mighty warriors were Asahel the brother of Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
