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.
Depois disto aconteceu, que Davi feriu aos filisteus, e os humilhou: e tomou Davi a Metegue-Ama da mão dos filisteus.
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].
Feriu também aos de Moabe, e mediu-os com cordel, fazendo-os lançar por terra; e mediu com dois cordéis para morte, e um cordel inteiro para vida; e foram os moabitas servos debaixo de tributo.
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.
Também feriu Davi a Hadadezer filho de Reobe, rei de Zobá, indo ele a estender seu termo até o rio de Eufrates.
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.
E tomou Davi deles mil e setecentos cavaleiros, e vinte mil homens a pé; e aleijou Davi os cavalos de todos os carros, exceto cem carros deles que deixou.
5 When [the army of] Syria came from Damascus [city] to help King Hadadezer’s [army], David’s soldiers killed 22,000 of them.
E vieram os sírios de Damasco a dar ajuda a Hadadezer rei de Zobá; e Davi feriu dos sírios vinte e dois mil homens.
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.
Pôs logo Davi guarnição em Síria a de Damasco, e foram os sírios servos de Davi sujeitos a tributo. E o SENHOR guardou a Davi de onde quer que fosse.
7 David’s soldiers took the gold shields that were carried by Hadadezer’s officials, and brought them to Jerusalem.
E tomou Davi os escudos de ouro que traziam os servos de Hadadezer, e levou-os a Jerusalém.
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.
Também de Betá e de Beerote, cidades de Hadadezer, tomou o rei Davi grande quantidade de bronze.
9 When Toi, the king of the Hamath [city in Syria], heard that David’s [army] had defeated the entire army of King Hadadezer,
Então ouvindo Toí, rei de Hamate, que Davi havia ferido todo aquele exército de Hadadezer,
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.
Enviou Toí a Jorão seu filho ao rei Davi, a saudar-lhe pacificamente e a bendizer-lhe, porque havia lutado com Hadadezer e o havia vencido: porque Toí era inimigo de Hadadezer. E Jorão levava em sua mão vasos de prata, e vasos de ouro, e de bronze;
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.
Os quais o rei Davi dedicou ao SENHOR, com a prata e o ouro que tinha dedicado de todas as nações que havia submetido:
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.
Dos sírios, dos moabitas, dos amonitas, dos filisteus, dos amalequitas, e do despojo de Hadadezer filho de Reobe, rei de Zobá.
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].
E ganhou Davi fama quando, voltando da derrota dos sírios, feriu dezoito mil homens no vale do sal.
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.
E pôs guarnição em Edom, por toda Edom pôs guarnição; e todos os edomitas foram servos de Davi. E o SENHOR guardou a Davi por de onde quer que fosse.
15 David ruled over all the Israeli people, and he always did for them what was fair and just.
E reinou Davi sobre todo Israel; e fazia Davi direito e justiça a todo seu povo.
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;
E Joabe filho de Zeruia era general de seu exército; e Josafá filho de Ailude, chanceler;
17 Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar were the priests; Seraiah was the official secretary;
E Zadoque filho de Aitube, e Aimeleque filho de Abiatar, eram sacerdotes; e Seraías era escriba;
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).
E Benaia filho de Joiada, era sobre os quereteus e peleteus; e os filhos de Davi eram os príncipes.
