1 Chronicles 18
1 Some time later, David’s [army] attacked the army of Philistia and defeated them. They captured Gath [city] and the surrounding villages.
Sesudah itu Daud memukul kalah orang Filistin dan menundukkan mereka; lalu ia merebut Gat dan segala anak kotanya dari tangan orang Filistin.
2 His [army] also defeated [the army of] the Moab [people-group]. The people were forced to accept David as their ruler, and also to pay money [each year to David’s government, in order that David’s army would protect them].
Dan Daud memukul kalah orang Moab, sehingga orang Moab takluk kepadanya dan harus mempersembahkan upeti.
3 David’s [army] also fought against [the army of] Hadadezer, the king of [the] Zobah [region in Syria] near Hamath [city], when Hadadezer was trying to establish control over the area near the Euphrates River.
Selanjutnya Daud memukul kalah Hadadezer, raja Zoba, dekat Hamat, ketika ia pergi menegakkan kekuasaannya pada sungai Efrat.
4 David’s [army] captured 1,000 of Hadadezer’s chariots, 7,000 chariot-drivers, and 20,000 soldiers. They hamstrung/crippled most of their horses; there were only 100 horses that they did not cripple.
Daud merebut dari padanya seribu kereta, tujuh ribu orang pasukan berkuda dan dua puluh ribu orang pasukan berjalan kaki, lalu Daud menyuruh memotong urat keting segala kuda kereta, tetapi dengan meninggalkan seratus ekor kuda kereta.
5 When the army of Syria came from Damascus [city] to help Hadadezer’s [army], David’s soldiers killed 22,000 of them.
Lalu orang Aram dari Damsyik datang menolong Hadadezer, raja Zoba, tetapi dari antara orang Aram itu Daud menewaskan dua puluh dua ribu orang.
6 Then David stationed groups of his soldiers in Damascus, and the people of Syria were forced to accept David as their ruler, and to pay to David’s government [each year] the payment/tax that he demanded. And Yahweh enabled David’s [army] to win battles everywhere they went.
Kemudian Daud menempatkan pasukan-pasukan pendudukan di daerah orang Aram dari Damsyik, dan orang Aram itu menjadi budak Daud yang harus mempersembahkan upeti. TUHAN memberi kemenangan kepada Daud ke manapun ia pergi berperang.
7 David soldiers took the gold shields that were carried by the officers of Hadadezer’s [army] and brought them to Jerusalem.
Sesudah itu Daud mengangkut perisai-perisai emas yang dipakai oleh orang-orang Hadadezer, lalu membawanya ke Yerusalem.
8 They also brought from Tebah (OR, Tibhath) and Cun, two towns that belonged to Hadadezer, a lot of bronze, which [David’s son] Solomon [later] used to make the huge bronze basin and the pillars and other bronze items [for the temple].
Dan dari Tibhat dan dari Kun, yaitu kota-kotanya Hadadezer, Daud mengangkut amat banyak tembaga; dari padanya Salomo membuat "laut" tembaga, tiang-tiang dan perlengkapan tembaga.
9 When Tou, the king of Hamath [city in Syria], heard that David’s [army] had defeated the entire army of King Hadadezer,
Ketika didengar Tou, raja Hamat, bahwa Daud telah memukul kalah seluruh tentara Hadadezer, raja Zoba,
10 he sent his son Hadoram to King David, to greet him and (congratulate him/tell him that he was happy) about his defeating Hadadezer’s army, which had been fighting [the army of] Tou. Hadoram brought to David many items/gifts made of gold, silver, and bronze.
maka ia mengutus Hadoram, anaknya, kepada raja Daud untuk menyampaikan salam dan mengucapkan selamat kepadanya, karena ia telah berperang melawan Hadadezer dan memukul dia kalah, sebab Hadadezer sering memerangi Tou. Dan Hadoram membawa pelbagai barang-barang emas, perak dan tembaga.
11 King David dedicated those things to Yahweh, like he had done with the silver and gold that his soldiers had taken from [the] Edom and Moab [people-groups], and from the Ammon people-group and from the people of Philistia, and from [the descendants of] Amalek.
Juga barang-barang ini dikhususkan raja Daud bagi TUHAN, bersama-sama perak dan emas yang diangkutnya dari segala bangsa, yakni dari orang Edom, dari orang Moab, dari bani Amon, dari orang Filistin dan dari orang Amalek.
12 [One of David’s army commanders, ] Abishai, whose mother was Zeruiah, went with his army and killed 18,000 soldiers from Edom in the Salt Valley.
Abisai, anak Zeruya, menewaskan delapan belas ribu orang Edom di Lembah Asin.
13 Then David stationed groups of his soldiers there in Edom, and the people of Edom were forced to accept David as their king and to pay money to David’s government [every year]. And Yahweh enabled David’s [army] to win battles wherever they went.
Lalu ia menempatkan pasukan-pasukan pendudukan di Edom, sehingga seluruh Edom diperbudak oleh Daud. TUHAN memberi kemenangan kepada Daud ke manapun ia pergi berperang.
14 David ruled over all the Israeli people, and he always did for them what was just and fair.
Demikianlah Daud telah memerintah atas seluruh Israel, dan menegakkan keadilan dan kebenaran bagi seluruh bangsanya.
15 Zeruiah’s son Joab was the chief army commander. Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was the record-keeper.
Yoab, anak Zeruya, menjadi panglima; Yosafat bin Ahilud menjadi bendahara;
16 Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar were the Supreme Priests. Shavsha was the official secretary.
Zadok bin Ahitub dan Ahimelekh bin Abyatar menjadi imam; Sausa menjadi panitera;
17 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada ruled over the Kereth and Peleth groups [who were David’s bodyguards]. And David’s sons were his most important officials.
Benaya bin Yoyada menjadi panglima orang Kreti dan orang Pleti; dan anak-anak Daud adalah orang-orang utama yang diperbantukan kepada raja.
