2 Samuel 8
1 To nathuem ah David mah, Philistin kaminawk to tuk moe, pazawk; Metheg-ammah vangpui doeh Philistin ban thung hoiah a lak.
After this it happened that David struck the Philistines, and subdued them, and David took the bridle of Ammah out of the hand of the Philistines.
2 Moab kaminawk doeh a tuk, prae kaminawk to long ah angsongsak moe, nihcae to qui hoiah a tah; hum han ih kami to qui hnetto kasawk hoiah a tah, tahhaih qui maeto kasawk loe a hingsak; to pongah Moab kaminawk loe David ih tamna ah oh o moe, nihcae to tamut paeksak.
He struck Moab, and measured them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground; and he measured two lines to put to death, and one full line to keep alive. The Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.
3 To pacoengah Zobah siangpahrang, Rehob capa Hadadezer mah, Euphrates vapui taeng ih praenawk lak let hanah caeh naah, David siangpahrang mah tuk.
David struck also Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River.
4 David mah hrang lakok sangto, hrang angthueng kami sang sarihto, khok hoi misatuh kaminawk sang pumphaeto naeh; hrang lakok cumvaito naeh moe, kalah hrang lakoknawk loe paro pae boih.
And David took from him a thousand of his chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for one hundred chariots.
5 Zobah siangpahrang Hadadezer abomh hanah Damaska vangpui ah kaom Syria kaminawk angzoh o, toe David mah Syria kami sang pumphae hnetto hum pae boih.
When the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck of the Arameans two and twenty thousand men.
6 David mah Syria prae Damaska ah misatoep kami to suek; Syria kaminawk loe David ih tamna ah oh o moe, tamut to paek o; David caehhaih ahmuen kruekah Angraeng mah pazawkhaih to paek.
Then David put garrisons in Aram of Damascus; and the Arameans became servants to David, and brought tribute. Jehovah gave victory to David wherever he went.
7 Hadadezer tamnanawk mah sin ih sui aphawnawk to David mah lak moe, Jerusalem ah suek.
And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem, which, later on, were also taken by Shishak king of Egypt in the days of Rehoboam son of Solomon when he went up to Jerusalem.
8 David loe paroeai pop sumkamling doeh Hadadezer mah uk ih Betah hoi Berothai vangpui thung hoiah lak bae vop.
From Tebah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took a very great amount of bronze.
9 David mah Hadadezer ih misatuh kaminawk pazawk boih boeh, tiah Hamath siangpahrang Toi mah thaih naah,
When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer,
10 Toi loe angmah ih misa ah kaom, Hadadezer to pazawk pongah, anghoe moe, anih to bansin hanah, a capa Joram to siangpahrang David khaeah patoeh; Joram mah anih hanah sui, phoisa, sum kamling hoiah sak ih laom sabaenawk to sin pae;
then Toi sent Hadoram his son to king David, to greet him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And he brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze.
11 David siangpahrang loe to laom sabaenawk to Angraeng khaeah paek; to pacoengah a pazawk ih prae thung ih, sui hoi phoisanawk doeh Angraeng khaeah paek;
The King also dedicated these to Jehovah, with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued;
12 Syria hoi Moab, Ammon kaminawk, Philistinnawk hoi Amalek kaminawk; Zobah siangpahrang, Rehob capa Hadadezer khae hoi lomh ih hmuennawk doeh a paek boih.

13 Paloi azawn ah Syria kaminawk sang hatlai tazetto hum pacoengah, David loe paroeai ahmin amthang.
And David made a name for himself when he returned from defeating the Arameans. And Abishai son of Zeruiah defeated the Edomites in the Valley of Salt--eighteen thousand.
14 Edom prae thung, Edom prae thung boih ah misatoep kami to a suek, Edom kaminawk loe David ih tamna ah oh o; David caehhaih ahmuen kruekah Angraeng mah pazawkhaih to paek.
And he put a garrison in Edom, and all the Edomites became servants of the King. Jehovah gave victory to David wherever he went.

and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abiathar the son of Ahimelech, were priests; and Shisha was scribe;
