1 MAHOPE mai o keia mea, pepehi aku la o Davida i na Pilisetia, a hoopau ia lakou; a lawe ae la oia ia Gata, a me na kulanahale ona mailoko ae o ka lima o na Pilisetia.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho uDavida watshaya amaFilisti, wawehlisela phansi, wathatha iGathi lemizana yayo ekususa esandleni samaFilisti.
2 Pepehi aku hoi oia i ka Moaba: a lilo mai la na Moaba i poe kauwa na Davida, a lawe mai la hoi lakou i ka waiwai hookupu.
Watshaya loMowabi; amaMowabi asesiba zinceku zikaDavida, aletha umthelo.
3 Pepehi aku la hoi o Davida ia Hadarezera ke alii o Zoba, a hiki i Hamata, ia ia i hele aku ai e hoopaa i kona aupuni ma ka muliwai o Euperate.
UDavida watshaya loHadadezeri inkosi yeZoba kuze kube seHamathi lapho esiyamisa amandla akhe emfuleni iYufrathi.
4 Lawe ae la o Davida mai ona aku i na halekaa he tausani, me na hoohololio ehiku tausani, a me na tausani kanaka kani wawae he iwakalua: oki iho la hoi o Davida i ke olona wawae o na lio a pau o na halekaa; aka, hookoe iho la ia i hookahi haneri o na lio halekaa.
UDavida wasethumba kuye inqola eziyinkulungwane, labamabhiza abazinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, lamadoda ahamba ngenyawo azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili; uDavida wasequma imisipha yawo wonke amabhiza enqola, kodwa watshiya kuwo amabhiza enqola alikhulu.
5 A i ka hele ana mai o ko Suria no Damaseko e kokua mamuli o Hadarezera, ke alii o Zoba, pepehi aku la o Davida i ko Suria he iwakaluakumamalua na tausani kanaka.
Lapho amaSiriya eDamaseko eza ukusiza uHadadezeri inkosi yeZoba, uDavida watshaya kumaSiriya amadoda azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lambili.
6 A hana iho la o Davida i na pakaua ma Suria no Damaseko, a lilo ae la ko Suria i poe kauwa na Davida, a lawe mai la i ka waiwai hookupu. Pela o Iehova i malama mai ai ia Davida i na wahi a pau ana i hele ai.
UDavida wasebeka amabutho enqaba eSiriya yeDamaseko; amaSiriya asesiba zinceku zikaDavida, aletha umthelo. Ngokunjalo iNkosi yamsindisa uDavida loba ngaphi aya khona.

Njalo eTibhathi leKuni, imizi kaHadadezeri, uDavida wathatha ithusi elinengi kakhulu; uSolomoni enza ngalo ulwandle lwethusi, lezinsika, lezitsha zethusi.
9 A lohe ae la o Tou ke alii o Hamata, ua pepehi o Davida i ka poe kaua a pau o Hadarezera, o ke alii no Zoba;
UTowu inkosi yeHamathi esizwa ukuthi uDavida utshayile ibutho lonke likaHadadezeri inkosi yeZoba,
10 Hoouna mai la oia i kana keiki ia Hadorama io Davida la, e hooaloha ia ia, a e hoomaikai ia ia, no kona kaua ana ia Hadarezera, a ua pepehi ia ia; (no ka mea, he kanaka o Hadarezera i kaua aku me Tou; ) a me ia no na ipu gula, na ipu kala a me na ipu keleawe he nui loa.

12 A pepehi aku la o Abisai ke keiki a Zeruia i na kanaka o Edoma he umikumamawalu tausani, ma ke awawa paakai.
UAbishayi indodana kaZeruya wasetshaya amaEdoma esihotsheni setshwayi, izinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesificaminwembili.
13 Hana iho la hoi oia i na pakaua ma Edoma: a lilo ae la ka Edoma a pau i poe kauwa na Davida. Pela o Iehova i malama mai ai ia Davida i na wahi a pau ana i hele aku ai.
Wasebeka amabutho enqaba eEdoma; wonke amaEdoma asesiba zinceku zikaDavida. Ngokunjalo iNkosi yamsindisa uDavida loba ngaphi aya khona.
14 A nohoalii iho la o Davida maluna o ka Iseraela a pau, a hooko aku la i ke kanawai me ka hoopono aku iwaena o kona poe kanaka a pau.

16 A o Zadoka ke keiki a Ahituba, a me Abimeleka ke keiki a Abiatara na kahuna; a o Savasa ke kakauolelo;
loZadoki indodana kaAhitubi loAbhimeleki indodana kaAbhiyatha babengabapristi; loShavisha wayengumbhali;
17 A o Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, maluna ia o ka poe Kereti a me ka poe Peleti: a o na keikikane a Davida, he mau luna lakou me ke alii.
