2 Samuel 8

1 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, Devid meriri ndị Filistia. Mee ka ha nọdụ nʼokpuru ọchịchị ya. Ọ naara obodo Meteg-Amaa site nʼọchịchị ndị Filistia.

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 Devid merikwara ndị Moab. O mere ka ha dinaa nʼala. O jikwa ụdọ ọtụtụ tụa ha. Ọtụtụ abụọ ọbụla nʼime ha ka egburu. Ọtụtụ nke atọ ka a hapụrụ ka ha dịrị ndụ. Ya mere, ndị Moab ghọrọ ndị ohu Devid, na-ebutakwara ya ụtụ kwa afọ ọbụla.

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 Devid merikwara Hadadeza nwa Rehob, eze Zoba. Mgbe ọ gara inweghachita ogidi e jiri mara ya, nʼakụkụ osimiri Yufretis.

David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates.

4 Devid nwudere otu puku ịnyịnya ya na-adọkpụ ụgbọ agha, puku ndị agha asaa ndị na-agba ụgbọ agha, tinyere ndị agha ji ụkwụ eje dị iri puku abụọ. O bipụrụ akwara ụkwụ ịnyịnya ndị ahụ niile ọ dọtara nʼagha, ma hapụ naanị narị ịnyịnya.

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 Mgbe ndị Aram nke Damaskọs bịara inyere Hadadeza eze Zoba aka, Devid gburu iri puku ndị agha abụọ na abụọ nʼime ha.

And when the Syrians of Damascus came to succour Hadadezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.

6 O wuru ogige ndị agha nʼalaeze ndị Aram nke Damaskọs. Ndị Aram ghọrọ ndị ohu Devid, na-ewetakwa ụtụ ịnata ihuọma. Onyenwe anyị nyere Devid mmeri ebe ọbụla ọ gara.

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 Devid chịkọtara ọta ọlaedo ndịisi agha Hadadeza ji lụọ agha webata ha na Jerusalem.

And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

8 Site na Teba nakwa Beirotai, bụ obodo Hadadeza na-achị. Eze Devid weere ọtụtụ bronz dị ukwuu.

And from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceeding much brass.

9 Mgbe Tou, eze Hamat, nụrụ na Devid emeriela ndị agha Hadadeza niile,

When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,

10 o zipụrụ Joram, nwa ya nwoke, ka ọ gaa kelee Devid, nʼihi mmeri o meriri Hadadeza nʼagha, bụ onye ya na Tou nọ nʼagha. Joram ji ọtụtụ akụrụngwa nke ọlaọcha, nke ọlaedo na nke bronz bịa.

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 Eze Devid doro akụrụngwa ndị a niile nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị, dịka o si mee ọlaọcha na ọlaedo si na mba niile ndị ọ lụgburu.

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 Mba ndị a bụ: Edọm, Moab, ndị Amọn, ndị Filistia na Amalek. O dokwara nsọ nye Onyenwe anyị ihe ọ kwatara nʼagha site nʼaka Hadadeza nwa Rehob, bụ eze 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 Devid meere onwe ya aha, mgbe o si nʼitigbu puku ndị ikom Edọm iri na asatọ na Ndagwurugwu Nnu lọghachite.

And David gat him a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, being eighteen thousand men.

14 O wuru ogige ndị agha nʼala Edọm niile, ndị Edọm niile ghọrọ ndị na-ejere Devid ozi. Onyenwe anyị nyere Devid mmeri ebe ọbụla ọ gara.

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 Devid chịrị ndị Izrel niile, na-emere ndị ya ihe dị mma na ihe ziri ezi. O mesokwaghị onye ọbụla mmeso ọjọọ.

And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice unto all his people.

16 Onyeisi ndị agha ya bụ Joab nwa Zeruaya; ode akwụkwọ obodo bụ Jehoshafat, nwa Ahilud.

And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;

17 Zadọk nwa Ahitub, na Ahimelek nwa Abịata, bụ ndị nchụaja; Seraya bụ ode akwụkwọ eze.

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

18 Benaya, nwa Jehoiada, bụ onyeisi ndị Keret na Pelet. Ụmụ ndị ikom Devid bụkwa ndị nchụaja.

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