1 Chronicles 18
1 After this it came about that David attacked the Philistines and defeated them. He took Gath and its villages out of the Philistines' control.
Nogen Tid efter slog David Filisterne og undertvang dem, og han fratog Filisterne Gat med Småbyer.
2 Then he defeated Moab, and the Moabites became servants to David and paid him tribute.
Fremdeles slog han Moabiterne; og Moabiterne blev Davids skatskyldige Undersåtter.
3 David then defeated Hadadezer, king of Zobah at Hamath, as Hadadezer was traveling to establish his rule by the Euphrates River.
Ligeledes slog David Kong Hadar'ezer af Zoba i Nærheden af Hamat, da han var draget ud for at underlægge sig Egnene ved Eufratfloden.
4 David captured from him a thousand chariots, seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen. David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved enough of them for a hundred chariots.
David fratog ham 1.000 Vogne, 7.008 Ryttere og 20.000 Mand Fodfolk og lod alle Hestene lamme på hundrede nær, som han skånede.
5 When the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David killed twenty-two thousand Aramean men.
Og da Aramæerne fra Darmaskus kom Kong Hadar'ezer af Zoba til Hjælp, slog David 22.000 Mand af Aramæerne.
6 Then David put garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Arameans became servants to him and brought him tribute. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
Derpå indsatte David Fogeder i det darmaskenske Aram, og Aramæerne blev Davids skatskyldige Undersåtter. Således gav HERREN David Sejr, overalt hvor han drog frem.
7 David took the golden shields that were on Hadadezer's servants and brought them to Jerusalem.
Og David tog de Guldskjolde, Hadar'ezers Folk havde båret, og bragte dem til Jerusalem;
8 From Tebah and Kun, cities of Hadadezer, David took very much bronze. It was with this bronze that Solomon later made the bronze basin called “The Sea,” the pillars, and the bronze equipment.
og fra Hadar'ezers Byer, Tibhat og Kun, bortførte David Kobber i store Mængder; deraf lod Salomo Kobberhavet, Søjlerne og Kobbersagerne lave.
9 When Tou, king of Hamath, heard that David had defeated all the army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,
Men da Kong To'u af Hamat hørte, at David havde slået hele Kong Hadar'ezer af Zobas Stridsmagt,
10 and so Tou sent Hadoram his son to King David to greet him and to bless him. He did this because David had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him, and because Tou had often been at war with Hadadezer. Tou also sent David many different sorts of articles made of gold and silver and bronze.
sendte han sin Søn Hadoram til Kong David for at hilse på ham og lykønske ham til, at han havde kæmpet med Hadar'ezer og slået ham - Hadar'ezer havde nemlig ligget i Krig med To'u - og han medbragte alle Hånde Sølv-, Guld og Kobbersager.
11 King David set these objects apart to Yahweh, together with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations: Edom, Moab, the people of Ammon, the Philistines, and Amalek.
Også dem helligede Kong David HERREN tillige med det Sølv og Guld, han havde taget fra alle Folkeslagene, Edom, Moab, Ammoniterne, Filisterne og Amalek.
12 Abishai son of Zeruiah killed eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
Og Absjaj, Zerujas Søn, slog Edom i Saltdalen, 18000 Mand;
13 He placed garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David's servants. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
derpå indsatte han Fogeder i Edom, og alle Edomiterne blev Davids Undersåtter. Således gav HERREN David Sejr, overalt hvor han drog frem.
14 David reigned over all Israel, and he administered justice and righteousness to all his people.
Og David var Konge over hele Israel, og han øvede Ret og Retfærdighed mod hele sit Folk.
15 Joab son of Zeruiah was the commander of the army, and Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was recorder.
Joab, Zerujas Søn, var sat over Hæren; Josjafat, Ahiluds Søn, var Kansler;
16 Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests, and Shavsha was scribe.
Zadok, Ahitubs Søn, og Abimelek, Ebjatars Søn, var Præster; Sjavsja var Statsskriver;
17 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Kerethites and Pelethites, and David's sons were the chief officials at the hand of the king.
Benaja, Jojadas Søn, var sat over Kreterne og Pleterne, og Davids Sønner var de ypperste ved Kongens Side.
