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.
Derefter slog David de Philisteer, och undertryckte dem, och tog Gath och dess döttrar utu de Philisteers hand.
2 David also defeated the Moabites, making them subject to him and requiring them to pay taxes.
Slog han ock de Moabiter, så att de Moabiter vordo David underdånige, och förde honom skänker.
3 David then defeated Hadadezer, king of Zobah, near Hamath, as he tried enforce his control along the Euphrates River.
Han slog ock HadarEser, Konungen i Zoba, uti Hamath, då han dit drog, till att uppresa sitt tecken vid den älfvena Phrath.
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.
Och David vann af honom tusende vagnar, sjutusend resenärar, och tjugutusend män till fots och David hasade alla vagnhästarna, och behöll hundrade vagnar qvara.
5 When the Arameans from Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David killed 22,000 of them.
Och de Syrer af Damasco kommo HadarEser, Konungenom i Zoba, till hjelp; men David slog de samma Syrer, tu och tjugu tusend män;
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.
Och lade folk till Damascon i Syrien, så att de Syrer vordo David underdånige, och förde honom skänker; ty Herren halp David, ehvart han for.
7 David took the shields of gold that were carried by Hadadezer's officers and brought them to Jerusalem.
Och David tog de gyldene sköldar, som HadarEsers tjenare hade, och förde dem till Jerusalem.
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.
Tog också David utu HadarEsers städer, Tibhath och Chun, ganska mycken koppar, af hvilkom Salomo kopparhafvet, och stoderna och kopparkärilen gjorde.
9 When Tou, king of Hamath, learned that David had destroyed the entire army of Hadadezer, king of Zobah,
Och då Thou, Konungen i Hamath, hörde, att David hade slagit alla HadarEsers magt, Konungens i Zoba;
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.
Sände han sin son Hadoram till Konung David, och lät helsa och välsigna honom, att han med HadarEser stridt, och honom slagit hade; ty Thou hade örlig med HadarEser. Och all gyldene, silfver, och kopparkärile,
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.
Dem helgade Konung David Herranom, med det silfver och guld, som han tagit hade ifrå Hedningarna, nämliga ifrå de Edomeer, Moabiter, Ammoniter, Philisteer och Amalekiter.
12 Abishai, son of Zeruiah, killed 18,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
Och Abisai, ZeruJa son, slog de Edomeer i saltdalenom, adertontusend;
13 He set up army posts in Edom, and all the Edomites became subject to David. The Lord gave David victories wherever he went.
Och lade folk i Edomeen; så att alle Edomeer voro David underdånige; ty Herren halp David, ehvart han drog.
14 David ruled over all Israel. He did what was fair and right for all his people.
Alltså regerade David öfver hela Israel, och höll rätt och rättvisa allo sino folke.
15 Joab, son of Zeruiah, was the army commander, while Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, kept the official records.
Joab, ZeruJa son, var öfver hären; Jojaphat, Ahiluds son, var canceller.
16 Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, son of Abiathar, were the priests, while Shavsha was secretary.
Zadok, Ahitobs son, och AbiMelech, AbJathars son, voro Prester; Sausa var skrifvare.
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.
Benaja, Jojada son, var öfver Crethi och Plethi; och de förste Davids söner voro Konungenom vid handen.
