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.

Factum est autem post haec percussit David Philisthiim, et humiliavit eos, et tulit David Frenum tributi de manu Philisthiim.

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.

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 smote Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, —when he went to lay his hand on the River Euphrates.

Et percussit David Adarezer filium Rohob regem Soba, quando profectus est ut dominaretur super flumen Euphraten.

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.

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, when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David smote of the Syrians, twenty-two thousand men.

Venit quoque Syria Damasci, ut praesidium ferret Adarezer regi Soba: et percussit David de Syria viginti duo millia virorum.

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.

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 took the shields of gold which had come to the servants of Hadadezer, —and brought them to Jerusalem;

Et tulit David arma aurea, quae habebant servi Adarezer, et detulit ea in Ierusalem.

8 also, from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, did King David take bronze, exceeding much.

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, when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the forces of Hadadezer,

Audivit autem Thou rex Emath, quod percussisset David omne robur Adarezer,

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.

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 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:

quae et ipsa sanctificavit rex David Domino cum argento et auro, quae sanctificaverat de universis gentibus, quas subegerat,

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.

de Syria, et Moab, et filiis Ammon, et Philisthiim, et Amalec, et de manubiis Adarezer filii Rohob regis Soba.

13 And David made a name, when he returned from his smiting of the Syrians 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 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.

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 reigned over all Israel, —and so it was that David used to execute justice and righteousness for all his people;

Et regnavit David super omnem Israel: faciebat quoque David iudicium et iustitiam omni populo suo.

16 and, Joab, son of Zeruiah, was over the army, —and, Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, was remembrancer.

Ioab autem filius Sarviae erat super exercitum: porro Iosaphat filius Ahilud erat a commentariis:

17 And, Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Abimelech, son of Abiathar, were priests, —and, Seraiah, was scribe;

et Sadoc filius Achitob, et Achimelech filius Abiathar, erant sacerdotes: et Saraias, scriba:

18 and, Benaiah, son of Jehoiadah, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites, —and, the sons of David, became, chief rulers.

Banaias autem filius Ioiadae super cerethi et phelethi: filii autem David sacerdotes erant.
