2 Samuel 8

1 Some time later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took Metheg-ammah from the hand of the Philistines.

Na, muri iho ka patua nga Pirihitini e Rawiri, a hinga ana ratou i a ia: a tangohia ana e Rawiri a Metekeama i te ringa o nga Pirihitini.

2 David also defeated the Moabites, made them lie down on the ground, and measured them off with a cord. He measured off with two lengths those to be put to death, and with one length those to be spared. So the Moabites became subject to David and brought him tribute.

I patua ano e ia a Moapa, a ruritia ana ratou ki te aho; a meinga ana ratou kia takoto ki te whenua: na e rua nga aho i ruritia e ia mo te whakamate, kotahi tino aho mo te whakaora. Na ka riro nga Moapi hei pononga ma Rawiri, hei kaihomai hakari.

3 David also defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, who had marched out to restore his dominion along the Euphrates River.

I patua ano e Rawiri a Hareretere tama a Rehopo kingi o Topa, i tona haerenga ki te whakahoki mai i tona rohe i te awa, i Uparati.

4 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.

Na kotahi mano ana hariata i riro mai i a Rawiri, e whitu rau hoki nga hoia eke hoiho, e rua tekau mano nga tangata haere i raro. Na whakangongea ana e Rawiri nga hoiho o nga hariata katoa; i whakatoea ia etahi mo nga hariata kotahi rau.

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

A, no te haerenga mai o nga Hiriani o Ramahiku ki te whakauru ki a Hararetere kingi o Topa, patua iho e Rawiri o nga Hiriani e rua tekau ma rua mano tangata.

6 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.

I whakanohoia ano e Rawiri etahi hoia pupuri ki Hiria o Ramahiku: a ka waiho nga Hiriani hei pononga homai hakari ma Rawiri. Na whakaorangia ana a Rawiri e Ihowa i ona haerenga katoa.

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

I tangohia ano e Rawiri nga pukupuku koura a nga tangata a Hararetere, a kawea ana ki Hiruharama.

8 And from Betah and Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a large amount of bronze.

A nui atu te parahi i tangohia e Kingi Rawiri i Petaha, i Perotai, i nga pa o Hararetere.

9 When King Toi of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer,

A, i te rongonga o Toi kingi o Hamata kua patua e Rawiri te ope katoa a Hararetere,

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

Katahi ka tono a Toi i a Iorama, i tana tama ki a Kingi Rawiri ki te oha ki a ia, ki te manaaki hoki i a ia; mona i whawhai ki a Hararetere, i patu hoki i a ia: he hoariri hoki a Hararetere no Toi: i te ringa ano o Iorama etahi mea hiriwa, mea k oura, mea parahi.

11 and King David dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold he had dedicated from all the nations he had subdued—

Whakatapua ake era e Kingi Rawiri ma Ihowa hei tapiri mo te hiriwa, mo te koura i whakatapua e ia, a nga iwi katoa i hinga nei i a ia;

12 from Edom and Moab, from the Ammonites and Philistines and Amalekites, and from the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

A Hiria, a Moapa, a nga tamariki a Amona, a nga Pirihitini, a Amareke, me nga taonga o Hararetere tama a Rehopo, kingi o Topa.

13 And David made a name for himself when he returned from striking down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.

Na ka whai ingoa a Rawiri i tona hokinga mai i te patu i nga Hiriani i te Raorao Tote, ara kotahi tekau ma waru mano tangata.

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

A i whakanohoia e ia etahi hoia pupuri ki Eroma; he mea whakanoho puta noa i Eroma katoa ana hoia pupuri, a ka meinga nga Eromi katoa hei pononga ma Rawiri. A whakaorangia ana a Rawiri e Ihowa i ona haerenga katoa.

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

Na ko Rawiri te kingi o Iharaira katoa; a i whakarite ano a Rawiri i te whakawa, i te tika, mo tona iwi katoa.

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

Ko Ioapa tama a Teruia hoki te rangatira ope, ko Iehohapata tama a Ahiruru te kaiwhakamahara.

17 Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests; Seraiah was the scribe;

Ko Haroko tama a Ahitupu, raua ko Ahimereke tama a Apiatara, nga tohunga; ko Heraia hoki te kaituhituhi;

18 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and Pelethites; and David’s sons were priestly leaders.

Ko Penaia tama a Iehoiara te rangatira mo nga Kereti, mo nga Pereti; ko nga tama ia a Rawiri nga tino rangatira.
