< 1 Chronicles 18 >
1 Some time later, David defeated the Philistines and subdued them, and he captured Gath and its nearby towns from the Philistines.
factum est autem post haec ut percuteret David Philisthim et humiliaret eos et tolleret Geth et filias eius de manu Philisthim
2 David also defeated the Moabites, making them subject to him and requiring them to pay taxes.
percuteretque Moab et fierent Moabitae servi David offerentes ei munera
3 David then defeated Hadadezer, king of Zobah, near Hamath, as he tried enforce his control along the Euphrates River.
eo tempore percussit David etiam Adadezer regem Suba regionis Emath quando perrexit ut dilataret imperium suum usque ad flumen Eufraten
4 David captured from him 1,000 chariots, 7,000 charioteers, and 20,000 foot soldiers. David hamstrung all the chariot horses—except he saved enough for 100 chariots.
cepit ergo David mille quadrigas eius et septem milia equites ac viginti milia virorum peditum subnervavitque omnes equos curruum exceptis centum quadrigis quas reservavit sibi
5 When the Arameans from Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David killed 22,000 of them.
supervenit autem et Syrus damascenus ut auxilium praeberet Adadezer regi Suba sed et huius percussit David viginti duo milia virorum
6 David placed forces in the Aramean town of Damascus, and also made them subject to him and required them to pay taxes. The Lord gave David victories wherever he went.
et posuit milites in Damasco ut Syria quoque serviret sibi et offerret munera adiuvitque eum Dominus in cunctis ad quae perrexerat
7 David took the shields of gold that were carried by Hadadezer's officers and brought them to Jerusalem.
tulit quoque David faretras aureas quas habuerant servi Adadezer et adtulit eas in Hierusalem
8 David also took a large quantity of bronze from Tibhath and from Cun, towns that had belonged to Hadadezer. Solomon used that bronze to make the bronze sea, the columns, and the various bronze objects.
necnon de Thebath et Chun urbibus Adadezer aeris plurimum de quo fecit Salomon mare aeneum et columnas et vasa aenea
9 When Tou, king of Hamath, learned that David had destroyed the entire army of Hadadezer, king of Zobah,
quod cum audisset Thou rex Emath percussisse videlicet David omnem exercitum Adadezer regis Suba
10 he sent his son Hadoram to David to make friends with him and to congratulate him on his victory in battle over Hadadezer. Tou and Hadadezer had often been at war. Hadoram brought gifts of gold, silver, and bronze.
misit Aduram filium suum ad regem David ut postularet ab eo pacem et congratularetur ei eo quod expugnasset et percussisset Adadezer adversarius quippe Thou erat Adadezer
11 King David dedicated these gifts to the Lord, along with the silver and gold he had taken from all the following nations: Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalekites.
sed et omnia vasa aurea et argentea et aenea consecravit rex David Domino cum argento et auro quod tulerat ex universis gentibus tam de Idumea et Moab et filiis Ammon quam de Philisthim et Amalech
12 Abishai, son of Zeruiah, killed 18,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
Abisai vero filius Sarviae percussit Edom in valle Salinarum decem et octo milia
13 He set up army posts in Edom, and all the Edomites became subject to David. The Lord gave David victories wherever he went.
et constituit in Edom praesidium ut serviret Idumea David salvavitque Dominus David in cunctis ad quae perrexerat
14 David ruled over all Israel. He did what was fair and right for all his people.
regnavit ergo David super universum Israhel et faciebat iudicium atque iustitiam cuncto populo suo
15 Joab, son of Zeruiah, was the army commander, while Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, kept the official records.
porro Ioab filius Sarviae erat super exercitum et Iosaphat filius Ahilud a commentariis
16 Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, son of Abiathar, were the priests, while Shavsha was secretary.
Sadoc autem filius Ahitob et Ahimelech filius Abiathar sacerdotes et Susa scriba
17 Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, was in charge of the Kerethites and Pelethites; and David's sons were at the king's side, serving as his chief officials.
Banaias vero filius Ioiada super legiones Cherethi et Felethi porro filii David primi ad manum regis
