< 2 Samuel 8 >

1 And it came to pass, after this, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, —and David took the bridle of the metropolis, out of the hand of the Philistines.
وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَذَلَّلَهُمْ، وَأَخَذَ دَاوُدُ «زِمَامَ ٱلْقَصَبَةِ» مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ.١
2 And he smote Moab, and measured them with the line casting, them down to the ground, and be measured with two lines to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive, —so the Moabites became David’s, as servants, bringing gifts.
وَضَرَبَ ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ وَقَاسَهُمْ بِٱلْحَبْلِ. أَضْجَعَهُمْ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَقَاسَ بِحَبْلَيْنِ لِلْقَتْلِ وَبِحَبْلٍ لِلِٱسْتِحْيَاءِ. وَصَارَ ٱلْمُوآبِيُّونَ عَبِيدًا لِدَاوُدَ يُقَدِّمُونَ هَدَايَا.٢
3 And David smote Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, —when he went to lay his hand on the River Euphrates.
وَضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ بْنَ رَحُوبَ مَلِكَ صُوبَةَ حِينَ ذَهَبَ لِيَرُدَّ سُلْطَتَهُ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ.٣
4 And David captured from him, a thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, —and David destroyed all the chariots, but reserved of them, a hundred chariots.
فَأَخَذَ دَاوُدُ مِنْهُ أَلْفًا وَسَبْعَ مِئَةِ فَارِسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ رَاجِلٍ. وَعَرْقَبَ دَاوُدُ جَمِيعَ خَيْلِ ٱلْمَرْكَبَاتِ وَأَبْقَى مِنْهَا مِئَةَ مَرْكَبَةٍ.٤
5 And, when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David smote of the Syrians, twenty-two thousand men.
فَجَاءَ أَرَامُ دِمَشْقَ لِنَجْدَةِ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ مَلِكِ صُوبَةَ، فَضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ أَرَامَ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ.٥
6 Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus, and the Syrians became David’s, as servants bringing gifts, —and so Yahweh gave victory unto David, whithersoever he went.
وَجَعَلَ دَاوُدُ مُحَافِظِينَ فِي أَرَامِ دِمَشْقَ، وَصَارَ ٱلْأَرَامِيُّونَ لِدَاوُدَ عَبِيدًا يُقَدِّمُونَ هَدَايَا. وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ يُخَلِّصُ دَاوُدَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهَ.٦
7 And David took the shields of gold which had come to the servants of Hadadezer, —and brought them to Jerusalem;
وَأَخَذَ دَاوُدُ أَتْرَاسَ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ عَلَى عَبِيدِ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ وَأَتَى بِهَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ.٧
8 also, from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, did King David take bronze, exceeding much.
وَمِنْ بَاطِحَ وَمِنْ بِيرَوَثَايَ، مَدِينَتَيْ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ، أَخَذَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ نُحَاسًا كَثِيرًا جِدًّا.٨
9 And, when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the forces of Hadadezer,
وَسَمِعَ تُوعِي مَلِكُ حَمَاةَ أَنَّ دَاوُدَ قَدْ ضَرَبَ كُلَّ جَيْشِ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ،٩
10 then Tou sent Hadoram his son unto King David, to ask after his welfare, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and had smitten him, for Hadadezer had had wars with Tou, —and, in his hand, were vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze.
فَأَرْسَلَ تُوعِي يُورَامَ ٱبْنَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ لِيَسْأَلَ عَنْ سَلَامَتِهِ وَيُبَارِكَهُ لِأَنَّهُ حَارَبَ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ وَضَرَبَهُ، لِأَنَّ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ وكَانَتْ لَهُ حُرُوبٌ مَعَ تُوعِي. وَكَانَتْ بِيَدِهِ آنِيَةُ فِضَّةٍ وَآنِيَةُ ذَهَبٍ وَآنِيَةُ نُحَاسٍ.١٠
11 Them also, did King David hallow unto Yahweh, —with the silver and the gold which he had hallowed from all the nations which he had subdued:
وَهَذِهِ أَيْضًا قَدَّسَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ لِلرَّبِّ مَعَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي قَدَّسَهُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ ٱلَّذِينَ أَخْضَعَهُمْ١١
12 from Syria, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek, —and from the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
مِنْ أَرَامَ، وَمِنْ مُوآبَ، وَمِنْ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، وَمِنَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، وَمِنْ عَمَالِيقَ، وَمِنْ غَنِيمَةِ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ بْنِ رَحُوبَ مَلِكِ صُوبَةَ.١٢
13 And David made a name, when he returned from his smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, —eighteen thousand.
وَنَصَبَ دَاوُدُ تَذْكَارًا عِنْدَ رُجُوعِهِ مِنْ ضَرْبِهِ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ أَلْفًا مِنْ أَرَامَ فِي وَادِي ٱلْمِلْحِ.١٣
14 And he put, in Edom, garrisons, throughout all Edom, put be garrisons, and so it was that all Edom became servants unto David, —and Yahweh gave victory unto David, whithersoever he went.
وَجَعَلَ فِي أَدُومَ مُحَافِظِينَ. وَضَعَ مُحَافِظِينَ فِي أَدُومَ كُلِّهَا. وَكَانَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأَدُومِيِّينَ عَبِيدًا لِدَاوُدَ. وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ يُخَلِّصُ دَاوُدَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهَ.١٤
15 And David reigned over all Israel, —and so it was that David used to execute justice and righteousness for all his people;
وَمَلَكَ دَاوُدُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَكَانَ دَاوُدُ يُجْرِي قَضَاءً وَعَدْلًا لِكُلِّ شَعْبِهِ.١٥
16 and, Joab, son of Zeruiah, was over the army, —and, Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, was remembrancer.
وَكَانَ يُوآبُ ٱبْنُ صَرُويَةَ عَلَى ٱلْجَيْشِ، وَيَهُوشَافَاطُ بْنُ أَخِيلُودَ مُسَجِّلًا،١٦
17 And, Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Abimelech, son of Abiathar, were priests, —and, Seraiah, was scribe;
وَصَادُوقُ بْنُ أَخِيطُوبَ وَأَخِيمَالِكُ بْنُ أَبِيَاثَارَ كَاهِنَيْنِ، وَسَرَايَا كَاتِبًا،١٧
18 and, Benaiah, son of Jehoiadah, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites, —and, the sons of David, became, chief rulers.
وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ عَلَى ٱلْجَّلَادِينَ وَٱلسُّعَاةِ، وَبَنُو دَاوُدَ كَانُوا كَهَنَةً.١٨
