< 2 Samuel 8 >
1 And it came to pass after this, that David smote the Philistines, and humbled them: and David took Metheg-haammah out of the hand of the Philistines.
Factum est autem post haec percussit David Philisthiim, et humiliavit eos, et tulit David Frenum tributi de manu Philisthiim.
2 And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, laying them down on the ground; and he measured with two lines to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And the Moabites became David's servants, bringing presents.
Et percussit Moab, et mensus est eos funiculo, coaequans terrae: mensus est autem duos funiculos, unum ad occidendum, et unum ad vivificandum: factusque est Moab David serviens sub tributo.
3 David smote also Hadad'ezer, the son of Rechob, the king of Zobah, as he went to extend his territory at the river Euphrates.
Et percussit David Adarezer filium Rohob regem Soba, quando profectus est ut dominaretur super flumen Euphraten.
4 And David captured from him a thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand men on foot: and David hamstringed all the chariot-teams, but reserved of them a hundred chariot-teams.
Et captis David ex parte eius mille septingentis equitibus, et viginti millibus peditum, subnervavit omnes iugales curruum: dereliquit autem ex eis centum currus.
5 And the Syrians of Damascus then came to aid Hadad'ezer, the king of Zobah, when David slew of the Syrians twenty and two thousand men.
Venit quoque Syria Damasci, ut praesidium ferret Adarezer regi Soba: et percussit David de Syria viginti duo millia virorum.
6 And David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus: and the Syrians became servants to David, bearing presents. And the Lord helped David whithersoever he went.
Et posuit David praesidium in Syria Damasci: factaque est Syria David serviens sub tributo: servavitque Dominus David in omnibus ad quaecumque profectus est.
7 And David took the shields of gold that belonged to the servants of Hadad'ezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
Et tulit David arma aurea, quae habebant servi Adarezer, et detulit ea in Ierusalem.
8 And from Betach, and from Berothai, cities of Hadad'ezer, did king David take exceedingly much copper.
Et de Bete, et de Beroth, civitatibus Adarezer tulit rex David aes multum nimis, de quo fecit Salomon omnia vasa aurea in templo: et mare aeneum, et columnas et altare.
9 And when To'i the king of Chamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadad'ezer,
Audivit autem Thou rex Emath, quod percussisset David omne robur Adarezer,
10 Then did To'i send Yoram his son unto king David, to ask him after his well-being, and to bless him, because that he had fought against Hadad'ezer, and smitten him; for Hadad'ezer had been engaged in wars with To'i; and he had in his hand vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of copper:
et misit Thou Ioram filium suum ad regem David, ut salutaret eum congratulans, et gratias ageret: eo quod expugnasset Adarezer, et percussisset eum. Hostis quippe erat Thou Adarezer, et in manu eius erant vasa aurea, et vasa argentea, et vasa aerea:
11 These also did king David sanctify unto the Lord, with the silver and gold that he had sanctified from all the nations which he subdued;
quae et ipsa sanctificavit rex David Domino cum argento et auro, quae sanctificaverat de universis gentibus, quas subegerat,
12 From Syria, and from Moab, and from the children of 'Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from 'Amalek, and from the spoil of Hadad'ezer, the son of Rechob, the king of Zobah.
de Syria, et Moab, et filiis Ammon, et Philisthiim, et Amalec, et de manubiis Adarezer filii Rohob regis Soba.
13 And David acquired a name when he returned from his smiting the Syrians in the valley of salt, eighteen thousand men.
Fecit quoque sibi David nomen cum reverteretur capta Syria in Valle Salinarum, caesis decem et octo millibus et in Gebelem ad viginti tria millia:
14 And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all the Edomites became servants to David. And the Lord helped David whithersoever he went.
et posuit in Idumaea custodes, statuitque praesidium: et facta est universa Idumaea serviens David. et servavit Dominus David in omnibus ad quaecumque profectus est.
15 And David reigned over all Israel; and David did what is just and right unto all his people.
Et regnavit David super omnem Israel: faciebat quoque David iudicium et iustitiam omni populo suo.
16 And Joab the son of Zeruyah was over the army; and Jehoshaphat the son of Achilud was recorder;
Ioab autem filius Sarviae erat super exercitum: porro Iosaphat filius Ahilud erat a commentariis:
17 And Zadok the son of Achitub, and Achimelech the son of Ebyathar, were priests; and Serayah was scribe;
et Sadoc filius Achitob, et Achimelech filius Abiathar, erant sacerdotes: et Saraias, scriba:
18 And Banayahu the son of Yehoyada' was over both the Kerethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were officers of state.
Banaias autem filius Ioiadae super cerethi et phelethi: filii autem David sacerdotes erant.
