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 it came to pass, after this, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, —and David took the bridle of the metropolis, 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 the line casting, them down to the ground, and be measured with two lines to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive, —so the Moabites became David’s, as servants, bringing gifts.

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

And David smote Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, —when he went to lay his hand on 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 captured from him, a thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, —and David destroyed all the chariots, but reserved of them, a 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 help Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David smote of the Syrians, twenty-two 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 David’s, as servants bringing gifts, —and so Yahweh gave victory unto 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 which had come to 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.

also, from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, did King David take bronze, exceeding much.

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

And, when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the forces 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 Tou sent Hadoram his son unto King David, to ask after his welfare, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and had smitten him, for Hadadezer had had wars with Tou, —and, in his hand, were vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze.

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.

Them also, did King David hallow unto Yahweh, —with the silver and the gold which he had hallowed from all the nations which he had 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.

from Syria, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek, —and from 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 made a name, when he returned from his smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, —eighteen thousand.

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, in Edom, garrisons, throughout all Edom, put be garrisons, and so it was that all Edom became servants unto David, —and Yahweh gave victory unto 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 so it was that David used to execute justice and righteousness for all his people;

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

and, Joab, son of Zeruiah, was over the army, —and, Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, was remembrancer.

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

And, Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Abimelech, son of Abiathar, were priests, —and, Seraiah, was scribe;

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

and, Benaiah, son of Jehoiadah, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites, —and, the sons of David, became, chief rulers.
