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.
E depois disto aconteceu que David feriu os philisteus, e os abateu; e tomou a Gath, e os lugares da sua jurisdição, da mão dos philisteus.
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].
Também feriu os moabitas: e os moabitas ficaram servos de David, trazendo presentes.
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.
Também David feriu a Hadar-ezer, rei de Zoba, junto a Hamath, indo ele estabelecer os seus domínios pelo Euphrates.
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.
E David lhe tomou mil cavalos de carros, e sete mil cavaleiros, e vinte mil homens de pé: e David jarretou todos os cavalos dos carros; porém reservou deles cem cavalos.
5 When the army of Syria came from Damascus [city] to help Hadadezer’s [army], David’s soldiers killed 22,000 of them.
E vieram os siros de Damasco a ajudar a Hadar-ezer, rei de Zoba: porém dos siros feriu David vinte e dois mil homens.
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.
E David pôs guarnições em Síria de Damasco, e os siros ficaram servos de David, trazendo presentes: e o Senhor guardava a David, por onde quer que ia.
7 David soldiers took the gold shields that were carried by the officers of Hadadezer’s [army] and brought them to Jerusalem.
E tomou David os escudos de ouro, que tinham os servos de Hadar-ezer, e os trouxe a Jerusalém.
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].
Também de Tibhath, e de Chun, cidades de Hadar-ezer, tomou David muitíssimo cobre, de que Salomão fez o mar de cobre, e as colunas, e os vasos de cobre.
9 When Tou, the king of Hamath [city in Syria], heard that David’s [army] had defeated the entire army of King Hadadezer,
E ouvindo Tou, rei de Hamath, que David destruira todo o exército de Hadar-ezer, rei de 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.
Mandou seu filho Hadoram a David, para lhe perguntar como estava, e para o abençoar, por haver pelejado com Hadar-ezer, e o destruir (porque Hadar-ezer fazia guerra a Tou), enviando-lhe juntamente toda a sorte de vasos de ouro, e de prata, e de cobre.
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.
Os quais David também consagrou ao Senhor, juntamente com a prata e ouro que trouxera de todas as mais nações: dos idumeus, e dos moabitas, e dos filhos de Ammon, e dos philisteus, e dos amalequitas.
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.
Também Abisai, filho de Zeruia, feriu a dezoito mil idumeus no vale do Sal.
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.
E pôs guarnição em Edom, e todos os idumeus ficaram servos de David: e o Senhor guardava a David, por onde quer que ia.
14 David ruled over all the Israeli people, and he always did for them what was just and fair.
E David reinou sobre todo o Israel: e fazia juízo e justiça a todo o seu povo.
15 Zeruiah’s son Joab was the chief army commander. Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was the record-keeper.
E Joab, filho de Zeruia, tinha cargo do exército: e Josaphat, filho de Ahilud, era chanceler.
16 Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar were the Supreme Priests. Shavsha was the official secretary.
E Zadok, filho de Ahitub, e Abimelech, filho de Abiathar, eram sacerdotes: e Sausa escrivão.
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.
E Benaias, filho de Joiada, tinha cargo dos cheretheus e peletheus: porém os filhos de David, os primeiros, estavam à mão do rei.
