2 Samuel 8

1 Some time later, David’s army attacked the Philistia [army] and defeated them. They took control over the entire Philistia area.

Ana'ma hutegeno mago zupa Deviti'a Filistia vahe'mokizmi hara huzamagatereno kegava hunezamanteno, ugotama hu'nea Meteke-ama rankuma'zminena erino kegava huzmante'ne.

2 David’s army also defeated the army of the Moab people-group. David forced their soldiers to lie down on the ground [close to each other]. His men killed two out of every three of them. The [other] Moab people [were forced to] accept David as their ruler, and they were forced to give to him [every year the] payment/tax [that he demanded].

Hagi Deviti'a Moapu vahe'enena ha' huzamanteno ha'ma huzamagatenereno, ana vahera mopafi maseho hige'za masempi hu'za vazageno, nofiteti avazuhuno mesarimi huno ke'ne. Hagi 3a kevu vahepintira tare kevu vahera zamahe vaganereno, mago kevu vahera ozamaheno zamatrege'za agri agoraga mani'naze. Hagi Moapu vahe'ma ozmahe zamatrea vahe'mo'za agri agorga mani'za takesi zagoa Devitina ami'naze.

3 David’s army also defeated [the army of] Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, who ruled [the state of] Zobah [in Syria]. That happened when David went to rule again over the area at [the upper part of] the Euphrates River.

Hagi Zoba kini ne' Rehobu nemofo Hadadezeri'ma sondia vahe'anema Yufretis tintega vuno mopa'a ome hahuno eri'naku nevigeno, Deviti'a hara hunteno hara hugatere'ne.

4 David’s army captured 1,700 of Hadadezer’s soldiers who rode on horses, and 20,000 of his other soldiers. They also crippled/hamstrung most of the horses that pulled the chariots, but they left/spared enough horses to [pull] 100 chariots.

Hagi Deviti'a 1tausen 700'a hosifima vanoma nehaza sondia vahetaminki, 20 tauseni'a mopafima vanoma nehu'za ha'ma nehaza sondia vahe zamaheno nezmavreno, maka hosi afutamina zamagigruna taga nehuno 100'a karisima avazu huno vuga hosi afutaminke zamatre'ne.

5 When [the army of] Syria came from Damascus [city] to help King Hadadezer’s [army], David’s soldiers killed 22,000 of them.

Hagi ana knafina Damaskasi kumateti Aramu sondia vahe'mo'za vu'za, Joba kini ne' Hadadezeri ome aza hu'za hara nehazageno, Deviti'a ana ne'mofo sondia vahera 22 tauseni'a vahe zamahe'ne.

6 Then David stationed (groups of his soldiers/army camps) in their area, and the people of Syria were forced to accept David as their ruler, and to give to David’s government [every year] the payment/tax that he demanded. And Yahweh enabled David’s [army] to win victories wherever they went.

Hagi Deviti'a sondia vahe'aramimofo kumatamina Aramu vahe'mofo mopafi Damasakasi kumapi retro huno zamantege'za mani'neza kegava hu'nazage'za, Aramu vahe'mo'za Deviti agorga mani'ne'za takesi zagoa ami'naze. Ana nehazageno Ra Anumzamo'a Deviti'ma vuno eno'ma huno'ma ha'ma hirega, hanave amigeno hara huzmagatere'ne.

7 David’s soldiers took the gold shields that were carried by Hadadezer’s officials, and brought them to Jerusalem.

Hagi Hadadezeri sondia vahe'mo'za golireti'ma tro'ma hu'naza hankoramina Devitia erino Jerusalemi vu'ne.

8 They also brought [to Jerusalem] a lot of bronze [that they found] in Betah and Berothai, two cities that King Hadadezer [had previously] ruled.

Hagi Hadadezeri'ma kegava hu'nea tare rankumara Beta kuma'ene Berotai kumapintira Deviti'a rama'a bronsi eri'ne.

9 When Toi, the king of the Hamath [city in Syria], heard that David’s [army] had defeated the entire army of King Hadadezer,

Hagi Hamati kumate kini ne' Toi'ma antahiama Deviti'a Hadadezeri sondia vahe hara huzmagatere'ne hazanke nentahino'a,

10 he sent his son Joram to greet King David and to (congratulate him/say that he was happy) about his army defeating Hadadezer’s army, which Toi’s [army] had fought many times. Joram brought to David many items/gifts made from gold, silver, and bronze.

Toi'a nemofo Joramuna huntegeno Deviti ome musenke hunte'naku vu'ne. Hagi Toi'ene Hadadezeri'enena zanagra za'zate hara hu'na'a netre'ne. Hagi Joramu'a musezana silvane, goline bronsinena erineno Devitina aminaku vu'ne.

11 King David dedicated all those items to Yahweh. He also dedicated the silver and gold which his army had taken from the nations that they had conquered.

Hagi kini ne' Deviti'a miko ha' vahe'amokizmi ha' huzmanteno eri'nea zantamimpinti ko'ma hu'neaza huno, ana musezantamina Ra Anumzamofo zane huno erinte otage huno Ra Anumzamofo ami'ne.

12 They had taken items from the Edom people-group and the Moab people-group, from the Ammon people-group, from the Philistia people, and from [the descendants of] Amalek, as well as from the people that Hadadezer [previously] ruled.

Hagi ana zantamima Ra Anumzamofoma eri otage huno ami'neana, Idomu vahe zanki, Moapu vahe zanki, Amoni vahe zanki, Filistia vahe zanki Ameleki vahe zanki huno eri'ne. Hagi Rehopu nemofo Soba kini ne' Hadadezeri zantaminema eri'nea zanena Ra Anumzamofo eri otage huno ami'ne.

13 When David returned [after defeating the armies of Syria], he became more famous because his army killed 18,000 soldiers from the Edom people-group in the Salt Valley [near the Dead Sea].

Hagi Deviti'a Hage nehaza agupofima 18tauseni'a Idomu sondia vahe'ma ome zamaheteno ege'za, ra agi amizageno agimo'a mareri'ne.

14 David stationed (groups of his soldiers/army camps) throughout the Edom area, and forced the people there to accept him as their king. Yahweh enabled David’s [army] to win battles wherever they went.

Hagi Deviti sondia vahe'mo'za manisaza kumatamina Idomu mopafi tro huno zamantege'za umani emani hu'ne'za kegava hazage'za, Idomu vahe'mo'za Deviti agoraga mani'naze. Hagi inantego Devitima vunoma ha'ma ome hirega, Ra Anumzamo'a aza huno hanave amigeno hara agatere'ne.

15 David ruled over all the Israeli people, and he always did for them what was fair and just.

Ana huteno Deviti'a fatgo avu'ava huno Israeli vahera knare'za huno kegava huzamante'ne.

16 Joab was the army commander; Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the man who reported to the people everything that David decided that they should do;

Hagi Seruai nemofo Joapu'a Sondia vahe kva mani'geno, Ahiluti nemofo Jehosafati'a maka'zama nehazazamofo avonkreno eri fatgo hu eri'za vahe mani'ne.

17 Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar were the priests; Seraiah was the official secretary;

Hagi Ahitubu nemofo Zadoki'ene, Ahimeleki nemofo Abiatakea pristi netre manikeno, kini ne'mo'ma hiazantamima avonkreno eri fatgo hu eri'za nera Seraia'a mani'ne.

18 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was the commander of (David’s bodyguards/the men who protected the king); and David’s sons were priests (OR, his administrators/advisors).

Hagi Jehoiada nemofo Benaia'a kini ne'mofo avate kva nera mani'ne. Hagi Deviti ne'mofavremo'za pristi eri'za vahete kegava huzmante'naze.
