Some time later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took Gath and its villages from the hand of the Philistines.

David also defeated the Moabites, and they became subject to David and brought him tribute.

3 David je porazio i Hadadezera, sopskoga kralja u Hamatu, kad je izišao da utvrdi svoju vlast do rijeke Eufrata.

As far as Hamath, David also defeated King Hadadezer of Zobah, who had marched out to establish his dominion along the Euphrates River.

4 David zarobi od njega tisuću bojnih kola, sedam tisuća konjanika i dvadeset tisuća pješaka; ispresijecao je petne žile svim konjima od bojnih kola, ostavio ih je samo stotinu.

David captured from him a thousand chariots, seven thousand charioteers, and twenty thousand foot soldiers, and he hamstrung all the horses except a hundred he kept for the chariots.

When the Arameans of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand men.

6 Postavio je namjesnike u Damaščanskom Aramu. Tako Aramejci postadoše Davidovi podanici i moradoše mu plaćati danak. Jahve je davao pobjedu Davidu kuda je god išao.

Then he placed garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Arameans became subject to David and brought him tribute. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.

7 David zaplijeni zlatne štitove što ih imahu Hadadezerove sluge i donese ih u Jeruzalem.

And David took the gold shields that belonged to the officers of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem.

8 I iz Hadadezerovih gradova Tibhata i Kuna odnio je silni tuč od kojega je Salomon načinio mjedeno more, stupove i tučano posuđe.

And from Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a large amount of bronze, with which Solomon made the bronze Sea, the pillars, and various bronze articles.

9 Kad je čuo hamatski kralj Tou da je David porazio svu vojsku Hadadezera, sopskoga kralja,

When King Tou of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,

10 posla svoga sina Hadorama kralju Davidu da ga pozdravi i da mu čestita što je vojevao protiv Hadadezera i porazio ga, jer je Tou bio u ratu s Hadadezerom; i da mu odnese svakojakih zlatnih, srebrnih i tučanih predmeta.

he sent his son Hadoram to greet King David and bless him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer, who had been at war with Tou. Hadoram brought all kinds of articles of gold and silver and bronze,

11 I njih je kralj David posvetio Jahvi sa srebrom i zlatom što ga bijaše uzeo od svih naroda, od Edomaca, Moabaca, Amonaca, Filistejaca i Amalečana.

and King David dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold he had carried off from all these nations—from Edom and Moab, and from the Ammonites, Philistines, and Amalekites.

He placed garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.

14 David kraljevaše nad svim Izraelom čineći pravo i pravicu svemu svome narodu.

Thus David reigned over all Israel and administered justice and righteousness for all his people:

15 Sarvijin je sin Joab bio zapovjednik vojske; Ahiludov sin Jošafat bijaše tajni savjetnik.

Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;

16 Ahitubov sin Sadok i Ahimelekov sin Ebjatar bili su svećenici, Šavša pisar.
