Kings II 8
1 And it came to pass after this, that David struck the Philistines, and put them to flight, and David took the tribute from out of the hand of the Philistines.
Akyire yi, Dawid dii Filistifoɔ no so, brɛɛ wɔn ase. Ɔko gyee Gat a ɛyɛ wɔn kuropɔn kɛseɛ no.
2 And David struck Moab, and measured them out with lines, having laid them down on the ground: and there were two lines for slaying, and two lines he kept alive: and Moab became servants to David, yielding tribute.
Dawid sane dii Moabfoɔ so. Ɔmaa nnipa no dedaa fam, na ɔde ahoma susuu wɔn. Ɔsusu ahoma no mmienu a, na wakyerɛ sɛ wɔnkum saa nnipa no. Ɛnna ɔsusu ahoma no baako a, na wakyerɛ sɛ wɔnnyaa saa nkurɔfoɔ no. Enti, Moabfoɔ a wɔnyaa wɔn ti didii mu no bɛyɛɛ Dawid asomfoɔ a na afe biara wɔyi ɛtoɔ brɛ no.
3 And David struck Adraazar the son of Raab king of Suba, as he went to extend his power to the river Euphrates.
Dawid sɛe Rehob babarima Hadadeser a na ɔdi ɔhene wɔ Soba no akɔdɔm, ɛberɛ a Hadadeser kɔɔ Asubɔnten Eufrate ho, pɛɛ sɛ ɔkɔhyɛ ne nnisoɔ mu den.
4 And David took a thousand of his chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all his chariot [horses], and he reserved to himself a hundred chariots.
Dawid kyeree ne nteaseɛnam apem, nteaseɛnamkafoɔ mpem nson ne nammɔntwa asraafoɔ ɔpeduonu. Dawid twitwaa nteaseɛnam apɔnkɔ no nyinaa nantin ntini, ma ɛkaa ɔha pɛ.
5 And Syria of Damascus comes to help Adraazar king of Suba, and David struck twenty-two thousand men belonging to the Syrian.
Ɛberɛ a Aramfoɔ a wɔfiri Damasko baa sɛ wɔrebɛboa Sobahene Hadadeser no, Dawid kumm wɔn mu ɔpeduonu.
6 And David placed a garrison in Syria near Damascus, and the Syrians became servants and tributaries to David: and the Lord preserved David wherever he went.
Na ɔde akodɔm a wɔyɛ bansifoɔ kɔtenaa Damasko, ma Aramfoɔ bɛyɛɛ Dawid nkurɔfoɔ a na wɔyi toɔ brɛ no. Baabiara a Dawid bɛkɔ no, Awurade ma no di nkonim.
7 And David took the golden bracelets which were on the servants of Adraazar king of Suba, and brought them to Jerusalem. And Susakim king of Egypt took them, when he went up to Jerusalem in the days of Roboam son of Solomon.
Dawid faa sikakɔkɔɔ nkuruwa a na ɛyɛ Hadadeser mpanimfoɔ dea no de ne nyinaa kɔɔ Yerusalem.
8 And king David took from Metebac, and from the choice cities of Adraazar, very much brass: with that Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the lavers, and all the furniture.
Ɔde Beta ne Berotai a na ɛyɛ Hadadeser nkuro no mu kɔbere bebree kaa ne ho kɔɔeɛ.
9 And You the king of Hemath heard that David had struck all the host of Adraazar.
Ɛberɛ a Hamathene Toi tee sɛ Dawid atɔre Hadadeser akodɔm no ase pasaa no,
10 And You sent Jedduram his son to king David, to ask him of his welfare, and to congratulate him on his fighting against Adraazar and striking him, for he was an enemy to Adraazar: and in his hands were vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass.
ɔsomaa ne babarima Yoram wɔ Dawid nkyɛn, bɛkyiaa no maa no amo. Na Hadadeser ne Toi yɛ atamfoɔ firi teteete a wɔako atia wɔn ho mpɛn bebree. Yoram kɔkyɛɛ Dawid nneɛma bebree a ɛyɛ, dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ ne kɔbere mfrafraeɛ.
11 And these king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and with the gold which he consecrated out of all the cities which he conquered,
Ɔhene Dawid too akyɛdeɛ no nyinaa din de maa Awurade a, dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a ɔnya firii aman bi a ɔdii wɔn so no nyinaa ka ho.
12 out of Idumea, and out of Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalec, and from the spoils of Adraazar son of Raab king of Suba.
Saa aman no ne Edom, Moab, Amon, Filistia, Amalek ne deɛ ɛfiri Sobahene Rehob babarima Hadadeser nkyɛn nso.
13 And David made [himself] a name: and when he returned he struck Idumea in Gebelem to [the number of] eighteen thousand.
Yei maa Dawid gyee edin. Ɔsane nʼakyi kɔeɛ no, ɔkunkumm Edomfoɔ mpem dunwɔtwe wɔ Nkyene Bɔnhwa mu.
14 And he set garrisons in Idumea, even in all Idumea: and all the Idumeans were servants to the king. And the Lord preserved David wherever he went.
Ɔde akodɔm bansifoɔ siisii Edom nyinaa ano. Na Edomfoɔ nyinaa bɛyɛɛ Dawid nkoa. Yei yɛ nhwɛsoɔ foforɔ a ɛkyerɛɛ nkonim a Awurade maa Dawid dii no baabiara a ɔkɔeɛ no.
15 And David reigned over all Israel: and David wrought judgement and justice over all his people.
Dawid dii Israel nyinaa so ɔhene, na ɔne obiara tenaa yie.
16 And Joab the son of Saruia [was] over the host; and Josaphat the son of Achilud [was keeper] of the records.
Seruia babarima Yoab na na ɔyɛ ɔsafohene. Ahilud babarima Yehosafat na na ɔyɛ adehyeɛ abakɔsɛmtwerɛni.
17 And Sadoc the son of Achitob, and Achimelech son of Abiathar, [were] priests; and Sasa [was] the scribe,
Sadok a na ɔyɛ Ahitub babarima ne Abiatar babarima Ahimelek na na wɔyɛ asɔfoɔ. Na Seraia yɛ asɛnniiɛ twerɛfoɔ.
18 and Banaeas son of Jodae [was] councillor, and the Chelethite and the Phelethite, and the sons of David, were princes of the court.
Yehoiada babarima Benaia na na ɔdi Keretifoɔ ne Peletifoɔ so, ɛnna Dawid mmammarima tua asɔfodɔm ano.
