< 2 Samuel 8 >
1 After this now, Dauid smote the Philistims, and subdued them, and Dauid tooke the bridle of bondage out of the hand of the Philistims.
Le esia megbe la, David ɖu Filistitɔwo dzi eye wòbɔbɔ wo ɖe anyi to woƒe du Meteg Ama xɔxɔ me.
2 And hee smote Moab, and measured them with a corde, and cast them downe to the ground: he measured them with two cordes to put them to death, and with one full corde to keepe them aliue: so became the Moabites Dauids seruants, and brought giftes.
Eɖu Moabtɔwo hã dzi eye wòna Moabtɔwo mlɔ anyi ɖe wo nɔewo xa le fliwo me. Etsɔ dzidzeka dzidze wo eye wòma wo ɖe akpa etɔ̃ me. Ewu ameawo ƒe akpa eve, ena akpa etɔ̃lia me tɔwo zu eƒe subɔlawo eye wòna wodzɔa nu nɛ ƒe sia ƒe.
3 Dauid smote also Hadadezer the sonne of Rehob King of Zobah, as he went to recouer his border at the riuer Euphrates.
Eɖu Zoba fia Hadadezer, Rehob ƒe vi dzi le esime wòva be yeaɖo yeƒe fiaɖuƒe anyi ɖe Frat tɔsisi la to.
4 And Dauid tooke of them a thousand and seuen hundreth horsemen, and twenty thousande footemen, and Dauid destroyed all the charets, but he reserued an hundreth charets of them.
David lé sɔdola akpe wuiadre kple afɔzɔla akpe blaeve, etu ata na sɔawo katã negbe wo dometɔ alafa ɖeka ko.
5 Then came the Aramites of Dammesek to succour Hadadezer king of Zobah, but Dauid slewe of the Aramites two and twenty thousande men.
Esi Aramtɔwo tso Damasko va be yewoakpe ɖe Zoba fia Hadadezer ŋu la, David wu wo dometɔ akpe blaeve-vɔ-eve.
6 And Dauid put a garison in Aram of Damesek: and the Aramites became seruants to Dauid, and brought gifts. And the Lord saued Dauid wheresoeuer he went.
David da asrafo aɖewo ɖe Damasko si nye Aramtɔwo ƒe fiadu la me. Ale Aramtɔwo zu David tenɔlawo eye wodzɔa adzɔga nɛ ƒe sia ƒe. Ale Yehowa na David ɖua dzi le afi sia afi si wòayi.
7 And Dauid tooke the shieldes of gold that beloged to the seruants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Ierusalem.
David tsɔ sikakpoxɔnu siwo ŋu dɔ Fia Hadadezer ƒe aʋakɔwo wɔ la va Yerusalem.
8 And out of Betah, and Berothai (cities of Hadadezer) king Dauid brought exceeding much brasse.
Etsɔ akɔbli gbogbo aɖe hã tso Teba kple Berotai siwo nye Fia Hadadezer ƒe du gãwo la me yi Yerusalem.
9 Then Toi king of Hamath heard howe Dauid had smitten all the hoste of Hadadezer,
Esi Hamat fia, Tɔi, se ale si David si fia Hadadezer ƒe aʋakɔ blibo la,
10 Therefore Toi sent Ioram his sonne vnto King Dauid, to salute him, and to reioyce with him because he had fought against Hadadezer, and beaten him (for Hadadezer had warre with Toi) who brought with him vessels of siluer, and vessels of golde, and vessels of brasse.
eɖo Via ŋutsu Yoram ɖe David gbɔ be wòado gbe nɛ, akafui le esi wòwɔ aʋa kple Hadadezer eye wòsii la ta, vevietɔ, esi Tɔi kple Hadadezer nye futɔwo ta. Tɔi ɖo nu siwo wowɔ kple klosalo, sika kple akɔbli la ɖe David.
11 And King Dauid did dedicate them vnto the Lord with the siluer and golde that he had dedicate of all the nations, which he had subdued:
Fia David kɔ nunana siawo katã ŋu na Yehowa, abe ale si wòwɔ kple klosalo kple sika si wòxɔ tso dukɔ siwo katã dzi wòɖu gbɔ,
12 Of Aram, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistims, and of Amalek, and of the spoyle of Hadadezer ye sonne of Rehob King of Zobah.
tso Edom kple Moab, Amonitɔwo kple Filistitɔwo kple Amalekitɔwo gbɔ ene. Ekɔ nu siwo wòha tso Hadadezer, Rehob ƒe vi, Zoba fia hã gbɔ la ŋu na Yehowa.
13 So Dauid gate a name after that hee returned, and had slayne of the Aramites in the valley of salt eighteene thousand men.
Ale David ƒe ŋkɔ ɖi hoo. Esi wòtrɔ gbɔ la, ewu Siriatɔ akpe wuienyi le Dze Balime
14 And he put a garison in Edom: throughout all Edom put he souldiers, and all they of Edom became Dauids seruants: and the Lord kept Dauid whithersoeuer he went.
eye wòda asrafo aɖewo ɖe Edom ƒe teƒe ɖe sia ɖe. Ale Edomtɔwo zu David teviwo. Yehowa na wòɖua dzi le afi sia afi si wòayi.
15 Thus Dauid reigned ouer all Israel, and executed iudgement and iustice vnto all his people.
David ɖu Israel blibo la dzi kple dzɔdzɔenyenye eye wòwɔ nyui na ame sia ame.
16 And Ioab the sonne of Zeruiah was ouer the hoste, and Ioshaphat the sonne of Ahilud was recorder.
Yoab, Zeruya ƒe vi nɔ aʋakɔ la nu. Yehosafat, Ahilud ƒe vi nye fia ƒe tsiami.
17 And Zadok the sonne of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the sonne of Abiathar were the Priestes, and Seraiah the Scribe.
Zadok, Ahitub ƒe vi kple Ahimelek, Abiata ƒe vi nye nunɔlawo eye Seraya nye fia la ƒe nuŋlɔla.
18 And Benaiah the sonne of Iehoiada and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and Dauids sonnes were chiefe rulers.
Benaya, Yehoiada ƒe vi nɔ Keretitɔwo kple Peletitɔwo, ame siwo nye fiaŋudzɔlawo la nu eye David ƒe viŋutsuwo nye nunɔlawo.
