2 Samuel 8
1 Sometime after this, David attacked and subdued the Philistines, taking Metheg-ammah from the them.
Bangʼ kinde moko Daudi noloyo jo-Filistia ma gibedo e bwo lochne, kendo nokawo Metheg Ama mogolo e loch jo-Filistia.
2 David also defeated the Moabites. He made them lie down on the ground, and he measured them with a length of cord. He measured two lengths for those to be killed, and one cord length for those to be allowed to live. So he made them subject to him and required them to pay taxes.
Daudi noloyo jo-Moab bende. Noketogi ma ginindo piny eka nopimogi gi tol. Kano pimogi diriyo to mago ninego to mane opim mar adek ne iweyo kangima. Omiyo jo-Moab nobedo e bwo loch Daudi kendo negigolone osuru.
3 David also defeated Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he tried to enforce his control along the Euphrates River.
Bende Daudi nokedo gi Hadadezer wuod Rehob, ma ruodh Zoba, eka nodhi mondo ogur lochne e dho Aora Yufrate.
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.
Daudi nomako geche lweny alufu achiel gi joidh farese alufu abiriyo, gi jolweny mawuotho gi tiendgi alufu piero ariyo. Nongʼado odond farese duto.
5 When the Arameans of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David killed twenty-two thousand of them.
Kane jo-Aram moa Damaski obiro konyo Hadadezer ruodh Zoba, Daudi nonego ji alufu piero ariyo gariyo kuomgi.
6 He placed garrisons in Aramean kingdom with its capital in Damascus, and made the Arameans subject to him and required them to pay taxes. The Lord gave David victories wherever he went.
Noketo kambi mag jolwenje e dala maduongʼ mar Damaski e piny jo-Aram kendo jo-Aram nobedo e bwo lochne kendo negikelone osuru. Jehova Nyasaye nomiyo Daudi olocho kamoro amora mane odhiye.
7 David took the shields of gold that belonged to Hadadezer's officers and brought them to Jerusalem.
Daudi nokawo kuodi molos gi dhahabu mane mag jotend lweny mar Hadadezer, mi okelogi Jerusalem.
8 King David also took a large quantity of bronze from Betah and Berothai, towns that had belonged to Hadadezer.
Ruoth Daudi nokawo mula mogundho chakre Teba nyaka Berothai mane gin miech Hadadezer.
9 When Tou, king of Hamath, learned that David had destroyed the entire army of Hadadezer, king of Zobah,
Kane Tou ruodh Hamath owinjo ni Daudi noloyo jolweny duto mag Hadadezer,
10 he sent his son Joram 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. Joram brought all kinds of gifts of gold, silver, and bronze.
nooro wuode miluongo ni Joram ir Ruoth Daudi mondo omose kendo opake kuom loch moloyogo Hadadezer, manosebedo kakedo gi Tou. Joram nokelo gik molos gi fedha, dhahabu to gi mula.
11 King David dedicated these gifts to the Lord, along with the silver and gold he had taken from all the nations he had subdued:
Ruoth Daudi nowalo gigi duto momiyo Jehova Nyasaye, mana kaka nosetimo gi fedha gi dhahabu mane oa kuom ogendini mane oloyo kaka:
12 Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalekites; as well as the plunder taken from Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
Edom gi Moab gi jo-Amon gi jo-Filistia, gi Amalek. E kaka nowalo bende gik mane oyaki mag Hadadezer wuod Rehob, ma ruodh Zoba.
13 David also made a name for himself when he came back after defeating eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
Kendo Daudi humbe nolandore koa nego jo-Edom alufu apar gaboro e Holo mar Chumbi.
14 He placed garrisons all through Edom, and all the Edomites became subject to David. The Lord gave David victories wherever he went.
Bangʼe noketo kambi askeche e piny Edom duto, mi jo-Edom nobedo e bwo loch Daudi. Kamoro amora ma Daudi nodhiye Jehova Nyasaye nomiye loch.
15 David ruled over all Israel. He did what was fair and right for all his people.
Daudi nobedo ruodh jo-Israel duto, kotimo maber kendo makare ni joge duto.
16 Joab, son of Zeruiah, was the army commander, and Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, kept the official records.
Joab wuod Zeruya ne jatend jolweny; Jehoshafat wuod Ahilud ne jachan weche;
17 Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, son of Abiathar, were priests, while Seraiah was the secretary.
Zadok wuod Ahitub gi Ahimelek wuod Abiathar ne jodolo; Seraya ne jagoro;
18 Benaiah, son of Jehoiada was in charge of the Cherethites and Pelethites; and David's sons were priests.
Benaya wuod Jehoyada ne jatend jo-Kereth gi jo-Peleth; to yawuot Daudi to ne jangʼad rieko mar joka ruoth.
