2 Sama’ila 8

1 Ana nan, sai Dawuda ya ci Filistiyawa da yaƙi, ya kawo ƙarshen mulkinsu a ƙasar, ya kuma ƙwace ƙasar Meteg Amma daga hannun Filistiyawa.

And it came about after this that David made an attack on the Philistines and overcame them; and David took the authority of the mother-town from the hands of the Philistines.

2 Haka kuma Dawuda ya ci Mowabawa. Ya sa suka kwanta a ƙasa, ya kuma auna su da igiya. Kowane awo biyu ya sa a kashe su, amma awo na uku sai yă sa a bar su da rai. Saboda haka Mowabawa suka zama bayin Dawuda, suka kuma kawo masa haraji.

And he overcame the Moabites, and he had them measured with a line when they were stretched out on the earth; marking out two lines for death and one full line for life. So the Moabites became servants to David and gave him offerings.

3 Ban da haka, Dawuda ya yaƙi Hadadezer ɗan Rehob, sarkin Zoba. Wannan ya faru a lokacin da Hadadezer yake kan hanyarsa zuwa Kogin Yuferites don yă sāke mai da wurin a ƙarƙashin ikonsa.

And David overcame Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, when he went to make his power seen by the River.

4 Dawuda ya kame keken yaƙinsa guda dubu, mahayan keken yaƙinsa dubu bakwai, da sojojin ƙasa dubu ashirin. Ya yayyanke agaran dawakan duka amma ya bar dawakai kekunan yaƙi ɗari.

And David took from him one thousand, seven hundred horsemen and twenty thousand footmen: and David had the leg-muscles of the horses cut, only keeping enough of them for a hundred war-carriages.

5 Sa’ad da Arameyawan Damaskus suka zo don su taimaki Hadadezer sarkin Zoba, sai Dawuda ya karkashe dubu ashirin da biyunsu.

And when the Aramaeans of Damascus came to the help of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David put to the sword twenty-two thousand of the Aramaeans.

6 Ya ajiye ƙungiyoyi sojoji a masarautar Arameyawan Damaskus, Arameyawa kuwa suka zama bayinsa, suka biya shi haraji. Ubangiji ya ba Dawuda nasara a duk inda ya tafi.

And David put armed forces in Aram of Damascus: and the Aramaeans became servants to David and gave him offerings. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

7 Dawuda ya kwashe garkuwoyin zinariya na shugabannin sojojin Hadadezer ya kawo Urushalima.

And David took their gold body-covers from the servants of Hadadezer and took them to Jerusalem.

8 Daga Teba da Berotai, garuruwan da suke ƙarƙashin Hadadezer, Sarki Dawuda ya kwashe tagulla masu yawan gaske.

And from Tebah and Berothai, towns of Hadadezer, King David took a great store of brass.

9 Da Towu sarkin Hamat ya ji cewa Dawuda ya ci dukan rundunar Hadadezer,

And when Tou, king of Hamath, had news that David had overcome all the army of Hadadezer,

10 sai ya aiki ɗansa Yoram wurin Sarki Dawuda yă gaishe, yă kuma yi masa barka saboda nasarar da ya yi a kan Hadadezer, gama Hadadezer nan ya hana Towu sakewa. Yoram ya tafi ɗauke da kayan azurfa, da na zinariya, da na tagulla.

He sent his son Hadoram to David, with words of peace and blessing, because he had overcome Hadadezer in the fight, for Hadadezer had wars with Tou; and Hadoram took with him vessels of silver and gold and brass:

11 Sarki Dawuda kuwa ya keɓe waɗannan kayayyaki wa Ubangiji, yadda ya yi da zinariya, da kuma azurfa daga dukan al’umman da ya mallaka,

These King David made holy to the Lord, together with the silver and gold which he had taken from the nations he had overcome —

12 wato, azurfa da zinariyan mutanen Edom, da na Mowabawa, da na Ammonawa, da na Filistiyawa, da na Amalekawa, da ganimar Hadadezer ɗan Rehob, sarkin Zoba.

The nations of Edom and Moab, and the children of Ammon and the Philistines and the Amalekites and the goods he had taken from Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

13 Dawuda kuwa ya ƙara zama shahararre bayan ya dawo daga kai wa ƙasar Aram hari, daga nan sai ya je ya karkashe mutanen Edom dubu goma sha takwas a Kwarin Gishiri.

And David got great honour for himself, when he came back, by the destruction of Edom in the valley of Salt, to the number of eighteen thousand men.

14 Ya ajiye rundunar sojoji ko’ina a Edom, dukan mutanen Edom kuwa suka zama bayin Dawuda. Ubangiji ya ba wa Dawuda nasara a duk inda ya tafi.

And he put armed forces in Edom; all through Edom he had armed forces stationed, and all the Edomites became servants to David. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.

15 Dawuda ya yi mulkin dukan ƙasar Isra’ila, yana yin wa dukan jama’arsa shari’ar gaskiya da adalci.

And David was king over all Israel, judging and giving right decisions for all his people.

16 Yowab ɗan Zeruhiya ya zama shugaban sojoji; Yehoshafat ɗan Ahilud kuwa shi ne marubucin tarihi;

And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the army; and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was keeper of the records;

17 Zadok ɗan Ahitub da Ahimelek ɗan Abiyatar, su ne firistoci; Serahiya kuma sakatare;

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

18 Benahiya ɗan Yehohiyada ne shugaban Keretawa da Feletiyawa, wato, sojoji masu gadin Dawuda, sa’an nan’ya’yan Dawuda maza su ne mashawartan sarki.

And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were priests.
