1 Tawarikh 18
1 Beberapa waktu kemudian Raja Daud menyerang dan mengalahkan orang Filistin serta merebut kota Gad bersama desa-desa di sekitarnya.
And it came about after this that David made an attack on the Philistines and overcame them, and took Gath with its daughter-towns out of the hands of the Philistines.
2 Daud juga mengalahkan orang Moab sehingga mereka takluk dan membayar upeti kepadanya.
And he overcame Moab, and the Moabites became his servants and gave him offerings.
3 Kemudian Daud mengalahkan Hadadezer, raja di Zoba dekat wilayah Hamat di negeri Siria. Pada waktu itu Hadadezer sedang dalam perjalanan untuk menguasai wilayah dekat hulu Sungai Efrat.
Then David overcame Hadadezer, king of Zobah, near Hamath, when he was going to make his power seen by the river Euphrates.
4 Daud merebut 1.000 kereta perang, dan menawan 7.000 orang tentara berkuda serta 20.000 orang tentara berjalan kaki. Ia melumpuhkan semua kuda, kecuali sebagian, cukup untuk 100 kereta perang.
And David took from him a thousand war-carriages and seven thousand horsemen and twenty thousand footmen: and he had the leg-muscles of all the horses cut, keeping only enough of them for a hundred war-carriages.
5 Orang Siria dari Damsyik mengirim tentara untuk menolong Raja Hadadezer, tapi Daud mengalahkan mereka dan menewaskan 22.000 orang.
And when the Aramaeans of Damascus came to the help of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David put to the sword twenty-two thousand Aramaeans.
6 Kemudian ia mendirikan perkemahan-perkemahan militer dalam wilayah mereka dan mereka takluk serta membayar upeti kepadanya. TUHAN memberikan kemenangan kepada Daud di mana pun ia berperang.
Then David put armed forces in Damascus, and the Aramaeans became his servants and gave him offerings. And the Lord made David overcome wherever he went.
7 Tameng-tameng emas yang dipakai oleh tentara Hadadezer dirampas oleh Daud dan dibawa ke Yerusalem.
And the gold body-covers of the servants of Hadadezer, David took to Jerusalem.
8 Selain itu Daud juga mengambil banyak sekali perunggu dari Tibhat dan Kun, kota-kota yang dahulu dikuasai oleh Hadadezer. (Di kemudian hari perunggu-perunggu itu dipakai oleh Salomo untuk membuat bejana, serta tiang-tiang dan perkakas ibadat di Rumah TUHAN.)
And from Tibhath and from Cun, towns of Hadadezer, David took a great store of brass, of which Solomon made the great brass water-vessel and the brass pillars and vessels.
9 Raja Tou dari Hamat mendengar bahwa Daud telah mengalahkan seluruh tentara Hadadezer.
Now when Tou, king of Hamath, had news that David had overcome all the army of Hadadezer, king of Zobah,
10 Maka ia mengutus Yoram putranya untuk menyampaikan salam kepada Raja Daud dan mengucapkan selamat atas kemenangannya itu, sebab Hadadezer sudah sering berperang dengan Tou. Yoram datang kepada Daud dengan membawa banyak hadiah emas, perak dan perunggu.
He sent his son Hadoram to King David, to give him words of peace and blessing, because he had overcome Hadadezer in the fight, for Hadadezer had been at war with Tou; and he gave him all sorts of vessels of gold and silver and brass.
11 Raja Daud mempersembahkan semua hadiah itu kepada TUHAN untuk dipergunakan dalam upacara ibadat. Demikian juga dilakukannya dengan barang-barang emas dan perak yang telah dirampasnya dari Hadadezer dan bangsa-bangsa yang dikalahkannya, yaitu bangsa Edom, Moab, Amon, Filistin dan Amalek.
These King David made holy to the Lord, together with the silver and gold he had taken from all nations; from Edom and Moab and from the children of Ammon and from the Philistines and from Amalek.
12 Abisai (ibunya bernama Zeruya) mengalahkan dan membunuh 18.000 orang Edom di Lembah Asin
And when he came back from putting to the sword eighteen thousand of the Edomites in the Valley of Salt,
13 lalu mendirikan perkemahan-perkemahan militer di seluruh Edom. Maka takluklah orang-orang Edom kepada Raja Daud. TUHAN memberikan kemenangan kepada Daud di mana pun ia berperang.
David put armed forces in all the towns of Edom; and all the Edomites became servants to David. The Lord made David overcome wherever he went.
14 Demikianlah Daud memerintah seluruh Israel dan menjaga agar rakyatnya selalu diperlakukan dengan adil dan baik.
So David was king over all Israel, judging and giving right decisions for all his people.
15 Inilah pejabat-pejabat tinggi yang diangkat oleh Daud: Panglima angkatan bersenjata: Yoab abang Abisai. Sekretaris istana: Yosafat anak Ahilud. Imam-imam: Zadok anak Ahitub dan Ahimelekh anak Abyatar. Sekretaris negara: Sausa. Kepala pengawal pribadi raja: Benaya anak Yoyada. Putra-putra Daud memegang jabatan penting dalam pemerintahan.
And Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the army; and Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, was keeper of the records.
And Zadok, the son of Ahitub; and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, were priests; and Shavsha was the scribe;
And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief of those whose places were at the king's side.
