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.
Nogen Tid efter slog David Filisterne og undertvang dem, og han fratog Filisterne Gat med Smaabyer.
2 And he struck Moab. And the Moabites became the servants of David, offering gifts to him.
Fremdeles slog han Moabiterne; og Moabiterne blev Davids skatskyldige Undersaatter.
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.
Ligeledes slog David Kong Hadar'ezer af Zoba i Nærheden af Hamat, da han var draget ud for at underlægge sig Egnene ved Eufratfloden.
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.
David fratog ham 1000 Vogne, 7000 Ryttere og 20 000 Mand Fodfolk og lod alle Hestene lamme paa hundrede nær, som han skaanede.
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.
Og da Aramæerne fra Darmaskus kom Kong Hadar'ezer af Zoba til Hjælp, slog David 22 000 Mand af Aramæerne.
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.
Derpaa indsatte David Fogeder i det darmaskenske Aram, og Aramæerne blev Davids skatskyldige Undersaatter. Saaledes gav HERREN David Sejr, overalt hvor han drog frem.
7 Also, David took the golden quivers, which the servants of Hadadezer had, and he brought them to Jerusalem.
Og David tog de Guldskjolde, Hadar'ezers Folk havde baaret, og bragte dem til Jerusalem;
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.
og fra Hadar'ezers Byer, Tibhat og Kun, bortførte David Kobber i store Mængder; deraf lod Salomo Kobberhavet, Søjlerne og Kobbersagerne lave.
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,
Men da Kong To'u af Hamat hørte, at David havde slaaet hele Kong Hadar'ezer af Zobas Stridsmagt,
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.
sendte han sin Søn Hadoram til Kong David for at hilse paa ham og lykønske ham til, at han havde kæmpet med Hadar'ezer og slaaet ham — Hadar'ezer havde nemlig ligget i Krig med To'u — og han medbragte alle Haande Sølv-, Guld og Kobbersager.
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.
Ogsaa dem helligede Kong David HERREN tillige med det Sølv og Guld, han havde taget fra alle Folkeslagene, Edom, Moab, Ammoniterne, Filisterne og Amalek.
12 Truly, Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, struck eighteen thousand of the Edomites in the Valley of the Salt Pits.
Og Absjaj, Zerujas Søn, slog Edom i Saltdalen, 18 000 Mand;
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.
derpaa indsatte han Fogeder i Edom, og alle Edomiterne blev Davids Undersaatter. Saaledes gav HERREN David Sejr, overalt hvor han drog frem.
14 Therefore, David reigned over all of Israel, and he executed judgment and justice among all his people.
Og David var Konge over hele Israel, og han øvede Ret og Retfærdighed mod hele sit Folk.
15 Now Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was over the army, and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the keeper of records.
Joab, Zerujas Søn, var sat over Hæren; Josjafat, Ahiluds Søn, var Kansler;
16 And Zadok, the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, were the priests. And Shavsha was the scribe.
Zadok, Ahitubs Søn, og Abimelek, Ebjatars Søn, var Præster; Sjavsja var Statsskriver;
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.
Benaja, Jojadas Søn, var sat over Kreterne og Pleterne, og Davids Sønner var de ypperste ved Kongens Side.
