< 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.
Factum est autem post haec percussit David Philisthiim, et humiliavit eos, et tulit David Frenum tributi de manu Philisthiim.
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.
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 And David strikes Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, in his going to bring back his power by the River [Euphrates];
Et percussit David Adarezer filium Rohob regem Soba, quando profectus est ut dominaretur super flumen Euphraten.
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.
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 Aram of Damascus comes to give help to Hadadezer king of Zobah, and David strikes twenty-two thousand men of Aram;
Venit quoque Syria Damasci, ut praesidium ferret Adarezer regi Soba: et percussit David de Syria viginti duo millia virorum.
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;
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 takes the shields of gold which were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brings them to Jerusalem;
Et tulit David arma aurea, quae habebant servi Adarezer, et detulit ea in Ierusalem.
8 and from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David has taken very much bronze.
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 Toi king of Hamath hears that David has struck all the force of Hadadezer,
Audivit autem Thou rex Emath, quod percussisset David omne robur Adarezer,
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,
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 also King David sanctified them to YHWH, with the silver and the gold which he sanctified of 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 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.
de Syria, et Moab, et filiis Ammon, et Philisthiim, et Amalec, et de manubiis Adarezer filii Rohob regis Soba.
13 And David makes a name in his turning back from his striking Aram in the Valley of Salt—eighteen thousand;
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 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.
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 reigns over all Israel, and David is doing judgment and righteousness to all his people,
Et regnavit David super omnem Israel: faciebat quoque David iudicium et iustitiam omni populo suo.
16 and Joab son of Zeruiah [is] over the host, and Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud [is] remembrancer,
Ioab autem filius Sarviae erat super exercitum: porro Iosaphat filius Ahilud erat a commentariis:
17 and Zadok son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech son of Abiathar, [are] priests, and Seraiah [is] scribe,
et Sadoc filius Achitob, et Achimelech filius Abiathar, erant sacerdotes: et Saraias, scriba:
18 and Benaiah son of Jehoiada [is over] both the Cherethite and the Pelethite, and the sons of David have been ministers.
Banaias autem filius Ioiadae super cerethi et phelethi: filii autem David sacerdotes erant.
