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;
Yei akyiri no, Dawid ko dii Gat ne nkuro a atwa ho ahyia no so nkonim, de kaa Filistifoɔ no hyɛeɛ, brɛɛ wɔn ase.
2 and he smiteth Moab, and the Moabites are servants to David, bringing a present.
Bio, Dawid dii Moab asase no so nkonim, ma Moabfoɔ no bɛyɛɛ Dawid nkoa a na wɔtua apeatoɔ ma no.
3 And David smiteth Hadarezer king of Zobah, at Hamath, in his going to establish his power by the river Phrat,
Afei, Dawid tɔree ɔhene Hadadeser a ɔfiri Soba akodɔm ase, de kɔsii Hamat wɔ ɛberɛ a Hadadeser bɔɔ nsra wɔ Asubɔnten Eufrate ho sɛ anka ɔrehyɛ ne tumi mu den no.
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].
Dawid ko gyee nteaseɛnam apem, nteaseɛnamkafoɔ mpem nson ne nammɔntwa asraafoɔ ɔpeduonu. Afei, ɔtwitwaa nteaseɛnam apɔnkɔ no nyinaa nantin ntini, ma ɛkaa ɔha pɛ.
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,
Ɛberɛ a Aramfoɔ firi Damasko baa sɛ wɔrebɛboa Hadadeser no, Dawid kunkumm wɔn mu ɔpeduonu mmienu.
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.
Afei, ɔde asraafodɔm guu Damasko, Aram ahenkuro mu, ma Aramfoɔ no bɛyɛɛ Dawid nkoa a na wɔbrɛ no apeatoɔ. Baabiara a Dawid bɛkɔ no, Awurade ma no di nkonim.
7 And David taketh the shields of gold that have been on the servants of Hadarezer, and bringeth them in to Jerusalem;
Dawid faa sikakɔkɔɔ nkuruwa a na ɛyɛ Hadadeser mpanimfoɔ dea no de ne nyinaa kɔɔ Yerusalem.
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.
Ɔde kɔbere mfrafraeɛ bebree a ɛfiri Hadadeser nkuro Tibhat ne Kun kaa ho baeɛ. Akyire yi, Salomo nanee kɔbere mfrafraeɛ no de yɛɛ asɔredan no ho adwuma. Ɔde yɛɛ kɔbere mfrafraeɛ Po na ɔde bi yɛɛ afadum ne kɔbere nkuku ne nkaka a wɔde di dwuma wɔ asɔredan no mu.
9 And Tou king of Hamath heareth that David hath smitten the whole force of Hadarezer king of Zobah,
Ɛberɛ a Hamathene Toi tee sɛ Dawid atɔre Sobahene Hadadeser akodɔm ase no,
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;
ɔsomaa ne babarima Hadoram ma ɔkɔɔ Dawid nkyɛn kɔmaa no amo wɔ ne nkonimdie no ho. Na Hadadeser ne Tou atane wɔn ho akyɛre, a na akokoakoko aba wɔn ntam. Yoram kɔkyɛɛ Dawid sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ ne kɔbere mfrafraeɛ bebree.
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.
Ɔhene Dawid hyiraa saa akyɛdeɛ yi nyinaa so maa Awurade, a dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ a ɔfa firii aman foforɔ a ɔkaa wɔn hyɛeɛ no so no nyinaa ka ho. Saa aman no ne Edom, Moab, Amon, Filistia ne Amalek.
12 And Abishai son of Zeruiah hath smitten Edom in the valley of salt — eighteen thousand,
Seruia babarima Abisai kunkumm Edomfoɔ mpem dunwɔtwe wɔ Nkyene Bɔnhwa no mu.
13 and he putteth in Edom garrisons, and all the Edomites are servants to David; and Jehovah saveth David whithersoever he hath gone.
Ɔde asraafoɔ duaduaa Edom nyinaa, ma Edomfoɔ nyinaa bɛyɛɛ Dawid nkoa. Yei yɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade ma Dawid dii nkonim wɔ baabiara a ɔkɔeɛ no nhwɛsoɔ.
14 And David reigneth over all Israel, and he is doing judgment and righteousness to all his people,
Dawid dii ɔhene wɔ Israel nyinaa so, na ɔne obiara tenaa yie.
15 and Joab son of Zeruiah [is] over the host, and Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud [is] remembrancer,
Seruia babarima Yoab na na ɔyɛ ɔsafohene. Ahilud babarima Yehosafat na na ɔyɛ adehyeɛ abakɔsɛmtwerɛni.
16 and Zadok son of Ahitub, and Abimelech son of Abiathar, [are] priests, and Shavsha [is] scribe,
Ahitub babarima Sadok ne Abiatar babarima Abimelek na na wɔyɛ asɔfoɔ. Sawsa na na ɔyɛ asɛnniiɛ twerɛfoɔ.
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.
Yehoiada babarima Benaia na na ɔyɛ ɔhene awɛmfoɔ no so panin. Dawid mmammarima somm sɛ ɔhene aboafoɔ mpanimfoɔ.
