1 Dhout Israel duto nobiro Hebron ir Daudi ma giwacho niya, “Wan ringreni kendo wan remo achiel. 2 E ndalo mokadho, kane pod Saulo ruodhwa in ema ne itelo ni jo-Israel e lwenjegi. Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nowachoni niya, ‘In ema nibed jakwadh joga Israel, kendo inibed jatendgi.’ ”

3 Kane jodong Israel duto osebiro Hebron ir Ruoth Daudi notimo kodgi winjruok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ne giwiro Daudi mondo obed ruodh Israel.

4 Daudi ne ja-higni piero adek kane obedo ruoth, kendo nobedo e loch kuom higni piero angʼwen. 5 Ne en e loch kuom higni abiriyo gi dweche auchiel ka en ruodh Juda kodak Hebron kendo ne en ruodh Israel gi Juda kodak Jerusalem kuom higni piero adek gadek.

6 Ruoth gi joge nodhi Jerusalem momonjo jo-Jebus mane odak kanyo. Jo-Jebus nowacho ni Daudi niya, “Ok inidonj ka; kata mana muofuni gi rangʼonde notami donjo.” Negiparo niya, “Daudi ok nyal donjo kanyo.” 7 To kata kamano Daudi noloyogi mokawo ohinga mar Sayun, ma en Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi.

8 Chiengʼno Daudi nowacho niya, “Ngʼato angʼata madwaro loyo jo-Jebus nyaka kadh e otuchi ma pi kadhogo eka dochop kuom rangʼonde gi muofni, ma gin jowasik Daudi.” Mano ema omiyo nowach ni muofni gi rongʼonde ok nodonj e dala ruoth.

9 Eka Daudi nodak e dala mochiel gi ohinga moluonge ni Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Nogere kolwore gi ohinga motegno gi yo ka iye. 10 Kendo nomedo bedo gi teko ahinya, nikech Jehova Nyasaye Maratego ne ni kode.

11 Koro Hiram ruodh Turo nooro joote ir Daudi ka gitingʼo sirni mag yiend sida gi jopa bao kod jogedo mag kite, kendo negigero dala ruoth ni Daudi. 12 Kendo Daudi nongʼeyo ni Jehova Nyasaye osegure kaka ruodh Israel kendo osetingʼo pinyruodhe malo mana nikech joge Israel.

13 Bangʼ kane osedar Hebron, Daudi nokendo monde kaachiel kod mon mamoko Jerusalem kendo nonywolone yawuowi gi nyiri mangʼeny. 14 Magi e nying nyithindo mane onywolo ka en Jerusalem: Shamua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon, 15 Ibhar, Elishua, Nefeg, Jafia, 16 Elishama, Eliada kod Elifelet.

17 Kane jo-Filistia owinjo ni Daudi osewir bedo ruodh jo-Israel, negiwuok kar rombgi, mondo gidware, to Daudi nowinjo wachno omiyo nowuok modhi kama ochiel motegno. 18 Koro jo-Filistia nosebiro ma gimonjo holo mar Refaim; 19 omiyo Daudi nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye niya, “bende anyalo dhi mondo amonj jo-Filistia? Bende iniketgi e lweta?”

Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Dhiyo, nikech abiro chiwo jo-Filistia e lweti.”

20 Omiyo Daudi nodhi Baal Perazim kendo noloyogi kanyo. Nowacho niya, “Kaka pi muomo, e kaka Jehova Nyasaye osemwomore ni wasika e nyima.” Mano emomiyo kanyo nochak ni Baal-Perizim. 21 Jo-Filistia noweyo nyisechegi kanyo kendo Daudi gi joge notingʼo gi modhigo.

22 Jo-Filistia nochako oyworo ni lweny e holo mar Refaim; 23 omiyo Daudi nopenjo Jehova Nyasaye wach kendo Jehova Nyasaye nodwoke niya, “Kik ichomgi tir lwor gi yo ka ngʼegi kendo imonjgi kama omanyore gi omburi. 24 Kiwinjo ka wi omburi yiengni, iwuog mapiyo nikech mano biro nyiso ni Jehova Nyasaye osetelo e nyimi mondo otiek jolweny mag jo-Filistia.” 25 Omiyo Daudi notimo kaka Jehova Nyasaye nochike, mi nonego jo-Filistia kochakore Gibeon nyaka Gezer.
