David wird König von ganz Israel und zieht nach Jerusalem
1Und alle Stämme Israels kamen zu David nach Hebron und sprachen: Siehe, wir sind dein Gebein und dein Fleisch! (5Mo 17,15; Ri 9,2; 2Sam 19,13; 1Chr 11,1; 1Chr 12,23; Ps 18,44; Spr 16,7)2Schon früher, als Saul noch König über uns war, warst du es, der Israel aus- und einführte. Und der HERR hat zu dir gesagt: Du sollst mein Volk Israel weiden, und du sollst Fürst sein über Israel! (1Sam 13,14; 1Sam 18,16; 2Sam 7,8; Ps 78,71; Jes 55,4)3Und alle Ältesten Israels kamen zu dem König nach Hebron. Und der König David machte mit ihnen einen Bund in Hebron vor dem HERRN. Und sie salbten David zum König über Israel. (1Sam 16,3; 1Sam 16,13; 1Sam 23,18; 2Sam 2,4; 2Kön 11,17; Ps 2,6)4David war 30 Jahre alt, als er König wurde, und er regierte 40 Jahre lang. (1Chr 29,27; Lk 3,23)5In Hebron regierte er über Juda sieben Jahre und sechs Monate; aber in Jerusalem regierte er über ganz Israel und Juda 33 Jahre. (2Sam 2,11; 1Kön 2,11; 1Chr 3,4)6Und der König zog mit seinen Männern nach Jerusalem gegen die Jebusiter, die im Land wohnten. Die aber sprachen zu David und sagten: Du wirst hier nicht hereinkommen, sondern die Blinden und die Lahmen werden dich vertreiben! Denn sie dachten: David kann nicht hier hereinkommen! (Jos 15,63; Ri 1,21; Mt 12,22)7Aber David nahm die Burg Zion ein; das ist die Stadt Davids. (2Sam 6,10; 1Kön 2,10; 1Kön 8,1; 1Kön 11,43)8Und David sprach an jenem Tag: Wer die Jebusiter schlägt und die Wasserleitung erreicht und die Lahmen und Blinden, denen die Seele Davids feind ist, [dem wird eine Belohnung zuteil].[1] Daher sagt man: »Es darf kein Blinder oder Lahmer ins Haus kommen!« (3Mo 21,18; 1Chr 11,6; Mt 21,14)9Und David wohnte in der Burg und nannte sie »Stadt Davids«. Und David baute ringsum vom Millo an einwärts. (2Sam 5,7; 1Kön 9,15; 2Chr 32,5)10Und David wurde immer mächtiger, und der HERR, der Gott der Heerscharen, war mit ihm. (1Mo 39,2; 1Mo 39,21; 1Mo 39,23; 1Sam 18,14; 1Sam 18,28; 2Kön 18,7; Hi 17,9; Spr 4,18)11Und Hiram, der König von Tyrus, sandte Boten zu David und Zedernstämme und Zimmerleute und Maurer, und sie bauten David ein Haus. (1Kön 5,1; 1Chr 14,1)12Und David erkannte, dass der HERR ihn zum König über Israel bestätigt und sein Königreich zu Ansehen gebracht hatte um seines Volkes Israel willen. (2Sam 7,16; 1Kön 10,9; 1Chr 14,2; Est 4,14)13Und David nahm sich noch mehr Nebenfrauen und Frauen aus Jerusalem, nachdem er von Hebron gekommen war, und es wurden ihm noch mehr Söhne und Töchter geboren. (5Mo 17,17)14Und dies sind die Namen derer, die ihm in Jerusalem geboren wurden: Schammua, Schobab, Nathan und Salomo; (2Sam 12,24; 1Chr 3,5; 1Chr 14,4; Mt 1,6; Lk 3,31)15Jibschar, Elischua, Nepheg und Japhija; (1Chr 3,6; 1Chr 14,6)16Elischama, Eljada und Eliphelet. (1Chr 3,7; 1Chr 14,7)
Doppelter Sieg Davids über die Philister
17Als aber die Philister hörten, dass man David zum König über Israel gesalbt hatte, da zogen sie alle herauf, um David herauszufordern. Als David dies erfuhr, zog er zur Bergfeste hinab. (1Sam 22,1; 2Sam 23,14; Ps 91,2)18Die Philister aber waren gekommen und breiteten sich aus im Tal der Rephaiter. (Jos 15,8; 1Chr 11,15)19Und David befragte den HERRN und sprach: Soll ich gegen die Philister hinaufziehen? Und willst du sie in meine Hand geben? Und der HERR sprach zu David: Ziehe hinauf, denn ich werde die Philister gewiss in deine Hand geben! (1Sam 28,6; 1Sam 30,8; 2Sam 2,1; Spr 3,6; Röm 12,2; Eph 5,17)20Und David kam nach Baal-Perazim; und David schlug sie dort und sprach: Der HERR hat meine Feinde vor mir zerrissen, wie das Wasser [einen Damm] zerreißt! Daher nannte man jenen Ort Baal-Perazim. (5Mo 7,5; 5Mo 7,25; 1Chr 14,12; Ps 58,8; Jes 28,21)21Und sie ließen ihre Götzen dort; David aber und seine Männer nahmen sie weg. (5Mo 7,5; 5Mo 7,25; 1Chr 14,12; Jer 43,12)22Aber die Philister zogen nochmals herauf und breiteten sich aus im Tal der Rephaiter. (1Kön 20,22; 1Chr 14,13)23Und David befragte den HERRN. Da sprach er: Ziehe nicht hinauf, sondern umgehe sie und falle ihnen in den Rücken, dass du von den Balsambäumen her an sie herankommst. (Jos 8,2; Jos 8,7; 2Sam 5,19)24Und wenn du in den Wipfeln der Balsambäume das Geräusch eines Einherschreitens hören wirst, dann beeile dich; denn dann ist der HERR vor dir hergezogen, um das Heer der Philister zu schlagen! (Ri 4,14; 2Kön 7,6; 1Chr 14,14)25Und David machte es so, wie es der HERR ihm geboten hatte, und er schlug die Philister von Geba an bis man nach Geser kommt. (Jos 10,32; Jos 18,24; Ps 32,8)
2.Samuel 5
King James Version
1Then came all the tribes of Israel to David unto Hebron, and spake, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh.2Also in time past, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that leddest out and broughtest in Israel: and the LORD said to thee, Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be a captain over Israel.3So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the LORD: and they anointed David king over Israel.4David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.5In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah.6And the king and his men went to Jerusalem unto the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land: which spake unto David, saying, Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither: thinking, David cannot come in hither.7Nevertheless David took the strong hold of Zion: the same is the city of David.8And David said on that day, Whosoever getteth up to the gutter, and smiteth the Jebusites, and the lame and the blind, that are hated of David' soul, he shall be chief and captain . Wherefore they said, The blind and the lame shall not come into the house.9So David dwelt in the fort, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward.10And David went on, and grew great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him.11And Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons: and they built David an house.12And David perceived that the LORD had established him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom for his people Israel' sake.13And David took him more concubines and wives out of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron: and there were yet sons and daughters born to David.14And these be the names of those that were born unto him in Jerusalem; Shammua, and Shobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,15Ibhar also, and Elishua, and Nepheg, and Japhia,16And Elishama, and Eliada, and Eliphalet.17But when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines came up to seek David; and David heard of it , and went down to the hold.18The Philistines also came and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.19And David enquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up to the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into mine hand? And the LORD said unto David, Go up: for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into thine hand.20And David came to Baalperazim, and David smote them there, and said, The LORD hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me, as the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baalperazim.21And there they left their images, and David and his men burned them.22And the Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim.23And when David enquired of the LORD, he said, Thou shalt not go up; but fetch a compass behind them, and come upon them over against the mulberry trees.24And let it be, when thou hearest the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees, that then thou shalt bestir thyself: for then shall the LORD go out before thee, to smite the host of the Philistines.25And David did so, as the LORD had commanded him; and smote the Philistines from Geba until thou come to Gazer.
1All the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, ‘We are your own flesh and blood.2In the past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel on their military campaigns. And the Lord said to you, “You shall shepherd my people Israel, and you shall become their ruler.” ’3When all the elders of Israel had come to King David at Hebron, the king made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord, and they anointed David king over Israel.4David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned for forty years.5In Hebron he reigned over Judah for seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned over all Israel and Judah for thirty-three years.
David conquers Jerusalem
6The king and his men marched to Jerusalem to attack the Jebusites, who lived there. The Jebusites said to David, ‘You will not get in here; even the blind and the lame can ward you off.’ They thought, ‘David cannot get in here.’7Nevertheless, David captured the fortress of Zion – which is the City of David.8On that day David had said, ‘Anyone who conquers the Jebusites will have to use the water shaft to reach those “lame and blind” who are David’s enemies.[1]’ That is why they say, ‘The “blind and lame” will not enter the palace.’9David then took up residence in the fortress and called it the City of David. He built up the area around it, from the terraces[2] inwards.10And he became more and more powerful, because the Lord God Almighty was with him.11Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs and carpenters and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David.12Then David knew that the Lord had established him as king over Israel and had exalted his kingdom for the sake of his people Israel.13After he left Hebron, David took more concubines and wives in Jerusalem, and more sons and daughters were born to him.14These are the names of the children born to him there: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,15Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,16Elishama, Eliada and Eliphelet.
David defeats the Philistines
17When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over Israel, they went up in full force to search for him, but David heard about it and went down to the stronghold.18Now the Philistines had come and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim;19so David enquired of the Lord, ‘Shall I go and attack the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hands?’ The Lord answered him, ‘Go, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into your hands.’20So David went to Baal Perazim, and there he defeated them. He said, ‘As waters break out, the Lord has broken out against my enemies before me.’ So that place was called Baal Perazim.[3]21The Philistines abandoned their idols there, and David and his men carried them off.22Once more the Philistines came up and spread out in the Valley of Rephaim;23so David enquired of the Lord, and he answered, ‘Do not go straight up, but circle round behind them and attack them in front of the poplar trees.24As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the poplar trees, move quickly, because that will mean the Lord has gone out in front of you to strike the Philistine army.’25So David did as the Lord commanded him, and he struck down the Philistines all the way from Gibeon[4] to Gezer. (1Chr 14,16)
