2 Samũeli 8
1 Thuutha wa mahinda macio-rĩ, Daudi nĩatharĩkĩire Afilisti na akĩmatooria biũ, na agĩtunyana Methegi-Amma kuuma watho-inĩ wa Afilisti.
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.
2 Ningĩ Daudi nĩatooririe andũ a Moabi. Agĩtũma makome thĩ na akĩmathima na ũraihu wa rũrigi. Aamathima-rĩ, ithimi igĩrĩ ciao makooragwo, na gĩthimi gĩa gatatũ mageetĩkĩrio matũũre muoyo. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Moabi magĩtuĩka ndungata cia Daudi na makamũrehagĩra igooti.
And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the ground; even with two lines measured he to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And [so] the Moabites became David’s servants, [and] brought gifts.
3 Daudi nĩahũũranire na Hadadezeri mũrũ wa Rehobu, mũthamaki wa Zoba, rĩrĩa aathiĩte gũcookia bũrũri ũrĩa aatunyĩtwo gũkuhĩ na Rũũĩ rwa Farati.
David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates.
4 Nake Daudi akĩmũtunya ngaari ciake cia ita ngiri ĩmwe, na andũ a gũcitwara ngiri mũgwanja, na thigari cia magũrũ ngiri mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Nake agĩtemenga mbarathi icio cia mbaara magũrũ agĩtũma ithue ciothe tiga o igana rĩmwe.
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] an hundred chariots.
5 Rĩrĩa Asuriata a kuuma Dameski mookire gũteithia Hadadezeri mũthamaki wa Zoba, Daudi akĩũraga Asuriata ngiri mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na igĩrĩ.
And when the Syrians of Damascus came to succour Hadadezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.
6 Akĩiga mbũtũ cia kũrangĩra ũthamaki wa Asuriata kũu Dameski. Nao Asuriata magĩtuĩka a gwathagwo nĩwe makamũrehagĩra igooti. Jehova nĩaheaga Daudi ũhootani kũrĩa guothe aathiiaga.
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.
7 Na rĩrĩ, Daudi agĩkuua ngo cia thahabu iria ciarĩ cia atongoria a Hadadezeri agĩcirehe Jerusalemu.
And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Kuuma matũũra ma Teba na Berothai, marĩa maarĩ ma Hadadezeri, Mũthamaki Daudi agĩkuua kuuma kuo indo nyingĩ mũno cia gĩcango.
And from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceeding much brass.
9 Rĩrĩa Tou mũthamaki wa Hamathu aaiguire atĩ Daudi nĩahootete mbũtũ ciothe cia mbaara cia Hadadezeri-rĩ,
When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,

Then Toi sent Joram his son unto 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:
11 Mũthamaki Daudi akĩamũrĩra Jehova indo icio, o ta ũrĩa aamũrĩte betha na thahabu kuuma ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe iria aatooretie.
Which also king David did dedicate unto the LORD, with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all nations which he subdued;
12 Nacio nĩ Edomu na Moabi, na Aamoni na Afilisti, na Amaleki. Ningĩ akĩamũra indo iria aatahĩte kuuma kũrĩ Hadadezeri mũrũ wa Rehobu mũthamaki wa Zoba.
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.
13 Nake Daudi akĩgĩa igweta hĩndĩ ĩrĩa oimire kũũraga andũ a Edomu ngiri ikũmi na inyanya Gĩtuamba-inĩ gĩa Cumbĩ.
And David gat [him] a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, [being] eighteen thousand [men].
14 Nake akĩiga thigari cia kũrangĩra Edomu guothe, nao andũ a Edomu othe magĩtuĩka ndungata cia Daudi. Nake Jehova nĩaheaga Daudi ũhootani kũrĩa guothe aathiiaga.
And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all they of Edom became David’s servants. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
15 Daudi nĩathamakire Isiraeli guothe, akahũthagĩra kĩhooto, na akahingĩria andũ ake othe maũndũ marĩa maagĩrĩire.
And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice unto all his people.
16 Joabu mũrũ wa Zeruia nĩwe warĩ mũnene wa ita; nake Jehoshafatu mũrũ wa Ehiludu nĩwe warĩ mwandĩki wa maũndũ ma ihinda rĩu;
And Joab the son of Zeruiah [was] over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud [was] recorder;

And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, [were] the priests; and Seraiah [was] the scribe;

And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was over] both the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David’s sons were chief rulers.
