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.

Och det begaf sig derefter, att David slog de Philisteer, och förnedrade dem, och tog träldomsbetslet utu de Philisteers hand.

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.

Han slog ock de Moabiter så till jordena, att han två delar drap, och en del lät lefvandes blifva. Alltså vordo de Moabiter David underdånige, så att de förde skänker till honom.

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

David slog ock HadadEser, Rehobs son, Konungen i Zoba, då han drog ut till att hemta sin magt igen, vid den älfven Phrath.

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.

Och David fångade af dem tusende och sjuhundrad resenärar, och tjugutusend fotfolk; och hasade alla vagnhästar, och behöll qvar hundrade vagnar.

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

Så kommo de Syrer af Damascon, till att hjelpa HadadEser, Konungen i Zoba; och David slog de Syrer, tu och tjugu tusend män;

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.

Och lade folk till Damascon i Syria. Alltså vardt Syria David underdånig, så att de förde skänker till honom; ty Herren halp David, ehvart han drog.

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

Och David tog de gyldene sköldar, som HadadEsers tjenare tillhört hade, och förde dem till Jerusalem.

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

Men ifrå Bethah, och Berothai, HadadEsers städer, tog Konung David ganska mycken koppar.

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

Då Thoi, Konungen i Hemath, hörde att David hade slagit alla HadadEsers magt,

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.

Sände han Joram sin son till David, till att helsa honom vänliga, och välsigna honom, att han hade stridt med HadadEser, och slagit honom; ty Thoi hade örlig med HadadEser, och han hade med sig silfver, och gyldene, och koppartyg;

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:

Hvilka Konung David ock helgade Herranom, samt med det silfver och guld, som han helgade af allom Hedningom, dem han under sig tvingade,

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.

Af Syria, af Moab, af Ammons barn, af de Philisteer, af Amalek, af HadadEsers rof, Rehobs sons, Konungens i Zoba.

13 And David made a name, when he returned from his smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, —eighteen thousand.

Och gjorde David sig ett namn, då han igenkom och slog de Syrer i saltdalenom, adertontusend.

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.

Och han lade folk i hela Edomea; och hela Edom var David undergifven; ty Herren halp David, ehvart han drog.

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

Alltså vardt David Konung öfver hela Israel; och han skaffade rätt och rättviso allo folkena.

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

Joab, ZeruJa son, var öfver hären; men Josaphat, Ahiluds son, var canceller.

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

Zadok, Ahitobs son, och Ahimelech, AbJathars son, voro Prester; Seraja var skrifvare;

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

Benaja, Jojada son, var öfver Crethi och Plethi; och Davids söner voro Prester.
