2 Samuel 8
1 And after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them: and David took Metheg-ammah out of the hand of the Philistines.
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, Dawudi n’awangula Abafirisuuti, n’abafuula abaddu be, n’awamba n’ekibuga kyabwe ekikulu.
2 And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the ground; even with two lines he measured to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And [so] the Moabites became David's servants, [and] brought gifts.
Dawudi n’awangula n’Abamowaabu, n’alagira buli omu ku bo yebake wansi, n’abapimako n’olukoba olupima. Buli eyali ebipimo bibiri yattibwanga, naye oyo eyali ow’ebipimo ebisatu nga y’alama. Abamowaabu ne bafuuka baddu ba Dawudi ne bamuwanga obusuulu.
3 David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates.
Ate era Dawudi n’awangula Kadadezeri mutabani wa Lekobu, kabaka w’e Zoba, bwe yali nga yeddiza amatwale ge ku Mugga Fulaati.
4 And David took from him a thousand [chariots], and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all the chariot -[horses], but reserved of them [for] a hundred chariots.
Dawudi n’awamba amagaali ga Kadadezeri lukumi, n’abeebagala embalaasi kasanvu, n’abaserikale ab’ebigere emitwalo ebiri. N’atema kumpi embalaasi zonna, n’azilemaza n’alekawo kikumi ku zo.
5 And when the Syrians of Damascus came to succor Hadadezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.
Awo Abasuuli ab’e Ddamasiko ne bajja okubeera Kadadezeri kabaka w’e Zoba, naye Dawudi n’atta emitwalo ebiri mu enkumi bbiri ku bo.
6 Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus: and the Syrians became servants to David, [and] brought gifts. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
Dawudi n’assa ebibinja eby’abaserikale mu Busuuli e Ddamasiko, Abasuuli ne bafuuka baddu be, era ne bamuwanga obusuulu. Mukama n’awa Dawudi obuwanguzi buli gye yagendanga.
7 And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
Dawudi n’anyaga engabo eza zaabu ezasitulibwanga abaserikale ba Kadadezeri n’azireeta e Yerusaalemi.
8 And from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took very much brass.
Kabaka Dawudi n’anyaga n’ebikomo bingi ddala okuva mu Beta ne mu Berosayi, ebibuga ebyali ebya Kadadezeri.
9 When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,
Awo Toyi kabaka w’e Kamasi bwe yawulira nga Dawudi awangudde eggye lyonna erya Kadadezeri,
10 Then Toi sent Joram his son to king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him: (for Hadadezer had wars with Toi) and [Joram] brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass:
n’atuma mutabani we Yolaamu eri kabaka Dawudi okumulamusaako, n’okumuyozaayoza okuwangula olutalo wakati we ne Kadadezeri. Kadadezeri yalwananga ne Toyi. Yolaamu n’amutwalira ebintu bya ffeeza ne zaabu n’ebikomo.
11 Which also king David dedicated to the LORD, with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all nations which he subdued;
Kabaka Dawudi n’abiwonga eri Mukama, nga bwe yakola effeeza ne zaabu bye yaggya mu mawanga amalala ge yawangula.
12 Of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
Amawanga gaali: Busuuli, ne Mowaabu, n’Abamoni, n’Abafirisuuti ne Amaleki; n’awonga n’omunyago gwa Kadadezeri, mutabani wa Lekobu, kabaka w’e Zoba.
13 And David made [him] a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of Salt, [being] eighteen thousand [men].
Erinnya lya Dawudi ne litutumuka, bwe yakomawo okuva okutta Abasuuli omutwalo gumu mu kanaana mu kiwonvu eky’Omunnyo.
14 And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom he put garrisons, and all they of Edom became David's servants. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
N’ateeka ebibinja bya baserikale mu Busuuli yonna, Abasuuli bonna ne bafuuka baddu ba Dawudi. Mukama n’awa Dawudi obuwanguzi buli gye yagendanga.
15 And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice to all his people.
Dawudi n’afuga Isirayiri yenna, ng’afuga abantu be bonna mu bwenkanya ne mu mazima.
16 And Joab the son of Zeruiah [was] over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud [was] recorder;
Yowaabu mutabani wa Zeruyiya ye yali omuduumizi w’eggye, Yekosafaati mutabani wa Akirudi nga ye mujjukiza,
17 And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, [were] the priests: and Seraiah [was] the scribe;
Zadooki mutabani wa Akitubu ne Akimereki mutabani wa Abiyasaali nga be bakabona, Seroya nga ye muwandiisi,
18 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was over] both the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were chief rulers.
Benaaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada nga ye mukulu w’Abakeresi n’Abaperesi abaakuumanga ba kabaka, batabani ba Dawudi nga be bawi ba magezi ab’obwakabaka.
