2 Samuel 8
1 And it comes to pass afterward that David strikes the Philistines, and humbles them, and David takes the bridle of the metropolis out of the hand of the Philistines.
Nogen Tid efter slog David Filisterne og undertvang dem, og David fratog Filisterne Meteg-Ha'amma.
2 And he strikes Moab, and measures them with a line, causing them to lie down on the earth, and he measures two lines to put to death, and the fullness of the line to keep alive, and the Moabites are for servants to David, bearers of a present.
Fremdeles slog han Moabiterne, og han maalte dem med en Snor, idet han lod dem lægge sig ned paa Jorden og afmaalte to Snorlængder, der skulde dræbes, og een, der skulde blive i Live. Saaledes blev Moabiterne Davids skatskyldige Undersaatter.
3 And David strikes Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, in his going to bring back his power by the River [Euphrates];
Ligeledes slog David Rehobs Søn, Kong Hadad'ezer af Zoba, da han var draget ud for at genoprette sit Herredømme ved Floden.
4 and David captures from him one thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and David utterly destroys the whole of the charioteers; he leaves only one hundred of their charioteers.
David fratog ham 1700 Ryttere og 20 000 Mand Fodfolk og lod alle Stridshestene lamme paa hundrede nær, som han skaanede.
5 And Aram of Damascus comes to give help to Hadadezer king of Zobah, and David strikes twenty-two thousand men of Aram;
Og da Aramæerne fra Damaskus kom Hadad'ezer af Zoba til Hjælp, slog David 22 000 Mand af Aramæerne.
6 and David puts garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and Aram is for a servant to David, carrying a present; and YHWH saves David wherever he has gone;
Derpaa indsatte David Fogeder i det damaskenske Aram, og Aramæerne blev Davids skatskyldige Undersaatter. Saaledes, gav HERREN David Sejr, overalt hvor han drog frem.
7 and David takes the shields of gold which were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brings them to Jerusalem;
Og David tog de Guldskjolde, Hadad'ezers Folk havde baaret, og bragte dem til Jerusalem;
8 and from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David has taken very much bronze.
og fra Hadad'ezers Byer Teba og Berotaj bortførte Kong David Kobber i store Mængder.
9 And Toi king of Hamath hears that David has struck all the force of Hadadezer,
Men da Kong To'i af Hamat hørte, at David havde slaaet hele Hadad'ezers Stridsmagt,
10 and Toi sends his son Joram to King David to ask of him of welfare, and to bless him (because that he has fought against Hadadezer, and strikes him, for Hadadezer had been a man of wars [with] Toi), and in his hand have been vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze,
sendte han sin Søn Hadoram til Kong David for at hilse paa ham og lykønske ham til, at han havde kæmpet med Hadad'ezer og slaaet ham — Hadad'ezer havde nemlig ligget i Krig med To'i — og han medbragte Sølv-, Guld— og Kobber-sager.
11 also King David sanctified them to YHWH, with the silver and the gold which he sanctified of all the nations which he subdued:
Ogsaa dem helligede Kong David HERREN tillige med det Sølv og Guld, han havde helliget af Byttet fra alle de undertvungne Folk,
12 of Aram, and of Moab, and of the sons of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob king of Zobah.
Edom, Moab Ammoniterne, Filisterne, Amalek, og af det Bytte, han havde taget fra Rehobs Søn, Kong Hadad'ezer af Zoba.
13 And David makes a name in his turning back from his striking Aram in the Valley of Salt—eighteen thousand;
Og David vandt sig et Navn. Da han vendte tilbage fra Sejren over Aram, slog han Edom i Saltdalen, 18 000 Mand;
14 and he puts garrisons in Edom—he has put garrisons in all of Edom, and all Edom are servants to David; and YHWH saves David wherever he has gone.
derpaa indsatte han Fogeder i Edom; i hele Edom indsatte han Fogeder, og alle Edomiterne blev Davids Undersaatter, Saaledes gav HERREN David Sejr, overalt hvor han drog frem.
15 And David reigns over all Israel, and David is doing judgment and righteousness to all his people,
Og David var Konge over hele Israel, og han øvede Ret og Retfærdighed mod hele sit Folk.
16 and Joab son of Zeruiah [is] over the host, and Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud [is] remembrancer,
Joab, Zerujas Søn, var sat over Hæren; Josjafat, Ahiluds Søn, var Kansler;
17 and Zadok son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech son of Abiathar, [are] priests, and Seraiah [is] scribe,
Zadok, Abitubs Søn, og Ebjatar, Ahimeleks Søn, var Præster; Seraja var Statsskriver;
18 and Benaiah son of Jehoiada [is over] both the Cherethite and the Pelethite, and the sons of David have been ministers.
Benaja, Jojadas Søn, var sat over Kreterne og Pleterne, og Davids Sønner var Præster.
