2 Samuel 8
1 And after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them: and David took the bridle of the mother city out of the hand of the Philistines.
Patapita nthawi, Davide anagonjetsa Afilisti ndi kuwapambana ndipo analanda Metegi Ama kuchoka mʼmanja mwa Afilistiwo.
2 And he smote Moab, and measured them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground; and he measured two lines to put to death, and one full fine to keep alive. And the Moabites became servants to David, and brought presents.
Davide anagonjetsanso Amowabu. Iye anawalamula kuti agone pansi mʼmizere itatu pa gulu lililonse ndipo anawayeza ndi chingwe. Pa gulu lililonse ankapha anthu amene anali pa mizere iwiri yoyamba, kusiyapo mzere wachitatu. Kotero Amowabu anakhala pansi pa ulamuliro wa Davide ndipo ankapereka msonkho.
3 David smote also Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River.
Komanso Davide anagonjetsa Hadadezeri mwana wa Rehobu, mfumu ya Zoba, pamene anapita kukakhazikitsa ulamuliro wake mʼmbali mwa mtsinje wa Yufurate.
4 And David took from him a thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for an hundred chariots.
Davide analanda magaleta 1,000, anthu 7,000 okwera magaleta pamodzi ndi asilikali oyenda pansi 20,000. Iye anadula mitsempha ya akavalo onse okoka magaleta, koma anasiyapo akavalo 100 okha.
5 And when the Syrians of Damascus came to succour Hadadezer king of Zobah, David smote of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.
Aramu wa ku Damasiko atabwera kudzathandiza Hadadezeri mfumu ya Zoba, Davide anakantha asilikali 22,000.
6 Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus: and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought presents. And the LORD gave victory to David whithersoever he went.
Iye anakhazikitsa maboma mu ufumu wa Aramu wa ku Damasiko, ndipo Aaramu anakhala pansi pa ulamuliro wake ndipo ankapereka msonkho. Yehova ankamupatsa chipambano Davide kulikonse kumene ankapita.
7 And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
Davide anatenga zishango zagolide za akuluakulu ankhondo a Hadadezeri ndi kubwera nazo ku Yerusalemu.
8 And from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceeding much brass.
Mfumu Davide inatenga mkuwa wambiri kuchokera ku Beta ndi Berotai, mizinda ya Hadadezeri.
9 And when Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,
Tou, mfumu ya Hamati atamva kuti Davide wagonjetsa gulu lonse lankhondo la Hadadezeri,
10 then Toi sent Joram his son unto king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and smitten him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And [Joram] brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass:
anatumiza mwana wake Yoramu kwa mfumu Davide kukamulonjera ndi kukamuyamikira chifukwa cha kupambana kwake pa nkhondo yake ndi Hadadezeriyo, amene analinso pa nkhondo ndi Tou. Yoramu anabweretsa ziwiya zasiliva, zagolide ndi zamkuwa.
11 These also did king David dedicate unto the LORD, with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued;
Mfumu Davide inapereka zinthu zimenezi kwa Yehova, monga anachitira ndi siliva ndi golide zochokera ku mayiko onse amene anawagonjetsa:
12 of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
Edomu ndi Mowabu, Aamoni ndi Afilisti, ndi Aamaleki. Iye anaperekanso zolanda ku nkhondo zochokera kwa Hadadezeri mwana wa Rehobu, mfumu ya Zoba.
13 And David gat him a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the Valley of Salt, even eighteen thousand men.
Ndipo Davide anatchuka atabwera kokakantha Aedomu 18,000 mu Chigwa cha Mchere.
14 And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all the Edomites became servants to David. And the LORD gave victory to David whithersoever he went.
Iye anayika maboma mʼdera lonse la Edomu, ndipo Aedomu onse anakhala pansi pa Davide. Yehova ankapambanitsa Davide kulikonse kumene ankapita.
15 And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice unto all his people.
Davide analamulira dziko lonse la Israeli ndipo ankachita zonse mwachilungamo ndi molondola pamaso pa anthu ake onse.
16 And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder:
Yowabu mwana wa Zeruya anali mkulu wa ankhondo; Yehosafati mwana wa Ahiludi anali mlembi wa zochitika.
17 and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were priests; and Seraiah was scribe;
Zadoki mwana wa Ahitubi ndi Ahimeleki mwana wa Abiatara anali ansembe; Seraya anali mlembi;
18 and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was over] the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David’s sons were priests.
Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada anali mtsogoleri wa Akereti ndi Apeleti; ndipo ana a Davide anali ansembe.
