1 Chronicles 18
1 After this it happened, that David struck the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and its towns out of the hand of the Philistines.
| וַיְהִי֙ אַחֲרֵי־כֵ֔ן וַיַּ֥ךְ דָּוִ֛יד אֶת־פְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים וַיַּכְנִיעֵ֑ם וַיִּקַּ֛ח אֶת־גַּ֥ת וּבְנֹתֶ֖יהָ מִיַּ֥ד פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים׃ |
2 He struck Moab; and the Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.
| וַיַּ֖ךְ אֶת־מֹואָ֑ב וַיִּהְי֤וּ מֹואָב֙ עֲבָדִ֣ים לְדָוִ֔יד נֹשְׂאֵ֖י מִנְחָֽה׃ |
3 David struck Hadadezer king of Zobah to Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Perath.
| וַיַּ֥ךְ דָּוִ֛יד אֶת־הֲדַדְעֶ֥זֶר מֶֽלֶךְ־צֹובָ֖ה חֲמָ֑תָה בְּלֶכְתֹּ֕ו לְהַצִּ֥יב יָדֹ֖ו בִּֽנְהַר־פְּרָֽת׃ |
4 David took from him one thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen; and David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for one hundred chariots.
| וַיִּלְכֹּד֩ דָּוִ֨יד מִמֶּ֜נּוּ אֶ֣לֶף רֶ֗כֶב וְשִׁבְעַ֤ת אֲלָפִים֙ פָּֽרָשִׁ֔ים וְעֶשְׂרִ֥ים אֶ֖לֶף אִ֣ישׁ רַגְלִ֑י וַיְעַקֵּ֤ר דָּוִיד֙ אֶת־כָּל־הָרֶ֔כֶב וַיֹּותֵ֥ר מִמֶּ֖נּוּ מֵ֥אָה רָֽכֶב׃ |
5 When the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck of the Arameans twenty-two thousand men.
| וַיָּבֹא֙ אֲרַ֣ם דַּרְמֶ֔שֶׂק לַעְזֹ֕ור לַהֲדַדְעֶ֖זֶר מֶ֣לֶךְ צֹובָ֑ה וַיַּ֤ךְ דָּוִיד֙ בַּאֲרָ֔ם עֶשְׂרִֽים־וּשְׁנַ֥יִם אֶ֖לֶף אִֽישׁ׃ |
6 Then David put garrisons in Aram of Damascus; and the Arameans became servants to David, and brought tribute. YHWH gave victory to David wherever he went.
| וַיָּ֤שֶׂם דָּוִיד֙ בַּאֲרַ֣ם דַּרְמֶ֔שֶׂק וַיְהִ֤י אֲרָם֙ לְדָוִ֔יד עֲבָדִ֖ים נֹשְׂאֵ֣י מִנְחָ֑ה וַיֹּ֤ושַׁע יְהוָה֙ לְדָוִ֔יד בְּכֹ֖ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר הָלָֽךְ׃ |
7 And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
| וַיִּקַּ֣ח דָּוִ֗יד אֵ֚ת שִׁלְטֵ֣י הַזָּהָ֔ב אֲשֶׁ֣ר הָי֔וּ עַ֖ל עַבְדֵ֣י הֲדַדְעָ֑זֶר וַיְבִיאֵ֖ם יְרוּשָׁלָֽ͏ִם׃ |
8 From Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took very much bronze, with which Solomon made the bronze sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of bronze.
| וּמִטִּבְחַ֤ת וּמִכּוּן֙ עָרֵ֣י הֲדַדְעֶ֔זֶר לָקַ֥ח דָּוִ֛יד נְחֹ֖שֶׁת רַבָּ֣ה מְאֹ֑ד בָּ֣הּ ׀ עָשָׂ֣ה שְׁלֹמֹ֗ה אֶת־יָ֤ם הַנְּחֹ֙שֶׁת֙ וְאֶת־הָֽעַמּוּדִ֔ים וְאֵ֖ת כְּלֵ֥י הַנְּחֹֽשֶׁת׃ פ |
9 When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,
| וַיִּשְׁמַ֕ע תֹּ֖עוּ מֶ֣לֶךְ חֲמָ֑ת כִּ֚י הִכָּ֣ה דָוִ֔יד אֶת־כָּל־חֵ֖יל הֲדַדְעֶ֥זֶר מֶֽלֶךְ־צֹובָֽה׃ |
10 he sent Hadoram his son to king David, to Greet him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him; (for Hadadezer had wars with Tou; ) and he had with him all kinds of vessels of gold and silver and bronze.
| וַיִּשְׁלַ֣ח אֶת־הֲדֹֽורָם־בְּנֹ֣ו אֶל־הַמֶּֽלֶךְ־דָּ֠וִיד לִשְׁאֹול־ (לִשְׁאָל)־לֹ֨ו לְשָׁלֹ֜ום וּֽלְבָרֲכֹ֗ו עַל֩ אֲשֶׁ֨ר נִלְחַ֤ם בַּהֲדַדְעֶ֙זֶר֙ וַיַּכֵּ֔הוּ כִּי־אִ֛ישׁ מִלְחֲמֹ֥ות תֹּ֖עוּ הָיָ֣ה הֲדַדְעָ֑זֶר וְכֹ֗ל כְּלֵ֛י זָהָ֥ב וָכֶ֖סֶף וּנְחֹֽשֶׁת׃ |
11 The King also dedicated these to YHWH, with the silver and the gold that he took from all the nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the people of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.
| גַּם־אֹתָ֗ם הִקְדִּ֞ישׁ הַמֶּ֤לֶךְ דָּוִיד֙ לַיהוָ֔ה עִם־הַכֶּ֙סֶף֙ וְהַזָּהָ֔ב אֲשֶׁ֥ר נָשָׂ֖א מִכָּל־הַגֹּויִ֑ם מֵֽאֱדֹ֤ום וּמִמֹּואָב֙ וּמִבְּנֵ֣י עַמֹּ֔ון וּמִפְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים וּמֵֽעֲמָלֵֽק׃ |
12 Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah struck of the Edomites in the Valley of Salt eighteen thousand.
| וְאַבְשַׁ֣י בֶּן־צְרוּיָ֗ה הִכָּ֤ה אֶת־אֱדֹום֙ בְּגֵ֣יא הַמֶּ֔לַח שְׁמֹונָ֥ה עָשָׂ֖ר אָֽלֶף׃ |
13 He put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became servants to David. YHWH gave victory to David wherever he went.
| וַיָּ֤שֶׂם בֶּֽאֱדֹום֙ נְצִיבִ֔ים וַיִּהְי֥וּ כָל־אֱדֹ֖ום עֲבָדִ֣ים לְדָוִ֑יד וַיֹּ֤ושַׁע יְהוָה֙ אֶת־דָּוִ֔יד בְּכֹ֖ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר הָלָֽךְ׃ |
14 David reigned over all Israel; and he executed justice and righteousness to all his people.
| וַיִּמְלֹ֥ךְ דָּוִ֖יד עַל־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיְהִ֗י עֹשֶׂ֛ה מִשְׁפָּ֥ט וּצְדָקָ֖ה לְכָל־עַמֹּֽו׃ |
15 Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
| וְיֹואָ֥ב בֶּן־צְרוּיָ֖ה עַל־הַצָּבָ֑א וִיהֹושָׁפָ֥ט בֶּן־אֲחִיל֖וּד מַזְכִּֽיר׃ |
16 and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were priests; and Shisha was scribe;
| וְצָדֹ֧וק בֶּן־אֲחִיט֛וּב וַאֲבִימֶ֥לֶךְ בֶּן־אֶבְיָתָ֖ר כֹּהֲנִ֑ים וְשַׁוְשָׁ֖א סֹופֵֽר׃ |
17 and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief about the king.
| וּבְנָיָ֙הוּ֙ בֶּן־יְהֹ֣ויָדָ֔ע עַל־הַכְּרֵתִ֖י וְהַפְּלֵתִ֑י וּבְנֵי־דָוִ֥יד הָרִאשֹׁנִ֖ים לְיַ֥ד הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ פ |
