1 Chronicles 18
1 And it cometh to pass after this, that David smiteth the Philistines, and humbleth them, and taketh Gath and its small towns out of the hand of the Philistines;
Patapita nthawi, Davide anagonjetsa Afilisti ndipo anakhala pansi pa ulamuliro wake. Iye analanda Gati ndi midzi yake yozungulira mʼmanja mwa Afilistiwo.
2 and he smiteth Moab, and the Moabites are servants to David, bringing a present.
Davide anagonjetsanso Amowabu, nakhala pansi pa ulamuliro wake ndipo ankapereka msonkho kwa iye.
3 And David smiteth Hadarezer king of Zobah, at Hamath, in his going to establish his power by the river Phrat,
Komanso Davide anagonjetsa Hadadezeri mfumu ya Zoba, mpaka ku Hamati, pamene anapita kukakhazikitsa ulamuliro wake mʼmbali mwa mtsinje wa Yufurate.
4 and David captureth from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and David destroyeth utterly all the chariots, and leaveth of them a hundred chariots [only].
Davide analanda magaleta 1,000, anthu okwera magaleta 7,000 pamodzi ndi asilikali oyenda pansi 20,000. Iye anadula mitsempha ya akavalo onse okoka magaleta, koma anasiyapo akavalo 100 okha.
5 And Aram of Damascus cometh in to give help to Hadarezer king of Zobah, and David smiteth in Aram twenty and two thousand men,
Aramu wa ku Damasiko atabwera kudzathandiza Hadadezeri mfumu ya ku Zoba, Davide anakantha asilikali 22,000.
6 and David putteth [garrisons] in Aram of Damascus, and the Aramaeans are to David for servants, bearing a present, and Jehovah giveth salvation to David whithersoever he hath gone.
Iye anakhazikitsa maboma mu ufumu wa Aramu wa ku Damasiko, ndipo Aaramu anakhala pansi pa ulamuliro wake ndipo ankapereka msonkho. Yehova ankamupatsa chipambano Davide kulikonse kumene ankapita.
7 And David taketh the shields of gold that have been on the servants of Hadarezer, and bringeth them in to Jerusalem;
Davide anatenga zishango zagolide zimene ankanyamula akuluakulu ankhondo a Hadadezeri ndi kubwera nazo ku Yerusalemu.
8 and from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, hath David taken very much brass; with it hath Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.
Kuchokera ku Teba ndi Kuni, mizinda ya Hadadezeri, Davide anatengako mkuwa wambiri umene Solomoni anapangira chimbiya, zipilala ndi zida zosiyanasiyana zamkuwa.
9 And Tou king of Hamath heareth that David hath smitten the whole force of Hadarezer king of Zobah,
Tou, mfumu ya Hamati atamva kuti Davide wagonjetsa gulu lonse lankhondo la Hadadezeri mfumu ya Zoba,
10 and he sendeth Hadoram his son unto king David, to ask of him of peace, and to bless him (because that he hath fought against Hadarezer, and smiteth him, for a man of wars with Tou had Hadarezer been, ) and all kinds of vessels, of gold, and silver, and brass;
anatumiza mwana wake Hadoramu kwa mfumu Davide kukamulonjera ndi kukamuyamikira chifukwa cha kupambana kwake pa nkhondo yake ndi Hadadezeriyo, amene analinso pa nkhondo ndi Tou. Hadoramu anabweretsa ziwiya zosiyanasiyana zagolide, zasiliva ndi zamkuwa.
11 also them hath king David sanctified to Jehovah with the silver and the gold that he hath taken from all the nations, from Edom, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.
Mfumu Davide inapereka zinthu zimenezi kwa Yehova, monga anachitira ndi siliva ndi golide zochokera ku mayiko ena onse monga Edomu ndi Mowabu, Aamoni ndi Afilisti, ndi Aamaleki.
12 And Abishai son of Zeruiah hath smitten Edom in the valley of salt — eighteen thousand,
Abisai mwana wa Zeruya anakantha Aedomu 18,000 mu Chigwa cha Mchere.
13 and he putteth in Edom garrisons, and all the Edomites are servants to David; and Jehovah saveth David whithersoever he hath gone.
Iye anayika maboma ku Edomu, ndipo Aedomu onse anakhala pansi pa Davide. Yehova ankapambanitsa Davide kulikonse kumene ankapita.
14 And David reigneth over all Israel, and he is doing judgment and righteousness to all his people,
Davide analamulira dziko lonse la Israeli ndipo ankachita zonse mwachilungamo ndi molondola pamaso pa anthu ake onse.
15 and Joab son of Zeruiah [is] over the host, and Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud [is] remembrancer,
Yowabu, mwana wa Zeruya anali mkulu wa ankhondo; Yehosafati mwana wa Ahiludi anali mlembi wa zochitika;
16 and Zadok son of Ahitub, and Abimelech son of Abiathar, [are] priests, and Shavsha [is] scribe,
Zadoki, mwana wa Ahitubi ndi Ahimeleki mwana wa Abiatara anali ansembe; Savisa anali mlembi;
17 and Benaiah son of Jehoiada [is] over the Cherethite and the Pelethite, and the elder sons of David [are] at the hand of the king.
Benaya mwana wa Yehoyada anali mtsogoleri wa Akereti ndi Apeleti, ndipo ana a Davide anali alangizi a mfumu.
