1 Chronicles 18
1 Now after these things, it happened that David struck the Philistines, and he humbled them, and he took Gath and her daughters from the hand of the Philistines.
此後，大衛攻打非利士人，把他們治服，從他們手下奪取了迦特和屬迦特的村莊；
2 And he struck Moab. And the Moabites became the servants of David, offering gifts to him.
又攻打摩押，摩押人就歸服大衛，給他進貢。
3 In that time, David also struck Hadadezer, the king of Zobah, in the region of Hamath, when he went forth so that he might extend his dominion as far as the river Euphrates.
瑣巴王哈大利謝往幼發拉底河去，要堅定自己的國權，大衛就攻打他，直到哈馬，
4 Then David seized one thousand of his four-horse chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand men on foot. And he hamstrung all the chariot horses, except for one hundred four-horse chariots, which he reserved for himself.
奪了他的戰車一千，馬兵七千，步兵二萬，將拉戰車的馬砍斷蹄筋，但留下一百輛車的馬。
5 Then the Syrians of Damascus also arrived, so that they might offer assistance to Hadadezer, the king of Zobah. And so, David then struck of them twenty-two thousand men.
大馬士革的亞蘭人來幫助瑣巴王哈大利謝，大衛就殺了亞蘭人二萬二千。
6 And he stationed soldiers in Damascus, so that Syria also would serve him, and would offer gifts. And the Lord assisted him in all the things to which he went forth.
於是大衛在大馬士革的亞蘭地設立防營，亞蘭人就歸服他，給他進貢。大衛無論往哪裏去，耶和華都使他得勝。
7 Also, David took the golden quivers, which the servants of Hadadezer had, and he brought them to Jerusalem.
他奪了哈大利謝臣僕所拿的金盾牌帶到耶路撒冷。
8 In addition, from Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, he brought very much brass, from which Solomon made the sea of brass, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.
大衛又從屬哈大利謝的提巴和均二城中奪取了許多的銅。後來所羅門用此製造銅海、銅柱，和一切的銅器。
9 Now when Toi, the king of Hamath, had heard this, specifically that David had struck the entire army of Hadadezer, the king of Zobah,
哈馬王陀烏聽見大衛殺敗瑣巴王哈大利謝的全軍，
10 he sent his son Hadoram to king David so that he might petition peace from him, and so that he might congratulate him that he had struck and defeated Hadadezer. For indeed, Toi was an adversary to Hadadezer.
就打發他兒子哈多蘭去見大衛王，問他的安，為他祝福，因為他殺敗了哈大利謝（原來陀烏與哈大利謝常常爭戰）。哈多蘭帶了金銀銅的各樣器皿來。
11 Moreover, all the vessels of gold and silver and brass king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and gold that he had taken from all the nations, as much from Idumea, and Moab, and the sons of Ammon, as from the Philistines and Amalek.
大衛王將這些器皿，並從各國奪來的金銀，就是從以東、摩押、亞捫、非利士、亞瑪力人所奪來的，都分別為聖獻給耶和華。
12 Truly, Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, struck eighteen thousand of the Edomites in the Valley of the Salt Pits.
洗魯雅的兒子亞比篩在鹽谷擊殺了以東一萬八千人。
13 And he stationed a garrison in Edom, so that Idumea would serve David. And the Lord saved David in all the things to which he went forth.
大衛在以東地設立防營，以東人就都歸服他。大衛無論往哪裏去，耶和華都使他得勝。
14 Therefore, David reigned over all of Israel, and he executed judgment and justice among all his people.
大衛作以色列眾人的王，又向眾民秉公行義。
15 Now Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was over the army, and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the keeper of records.
洗魯雅的兒子約押作元帥；亞希律的兒子約沙法作史官；
16 And Zadok, the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, were the priests. And Shavsha was the scribe.
亞希突的兒子撒督和亞比亞他的兒子亞希米勒作祭司長；沙威沙作書記；
17 Also, Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the legions of the Cherethites and Pelethites. But the sons of David were first at the hand of the king.
耶何耶大的兒子比拿雅統轄基利提人和比利提人。大衛的眾子都在王的左右作領袖。
