1 Factum est autem post hæc percussit David Philisthiim, et humiliavit eos, et tulit David Frenum tributi de manu Philisthiim.
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 Et percussit Moab, et mensus est eos funiculo, coæquans terræ: mensus est autem duos funiculos, unum ad occidendum, et unum ad vivificandum: factusque est Moab David serviens sub tributo.
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 Et percussit David Adarezer filium Rohob regem Soba, quando profectus est ut dominaretur super flumen Euphraten.
And David smote Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, —when he went to lay his hand on the River Euphrates.

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 Venit quoque Syria Damasci, ut præsidium ferret Adarezer regi Soba: et percussit David de Syria viginti duo millia virorum.
And, when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David smote of the Syrians, twenty-two thousand men.

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 Et tulit David arma aurea, quæ habebant servi Adarezer, et detulit ea in Ierusalem.
And David took the shields of gold which had come to the servants of Hadadezer, —and brought them to Jerusalem;
8 Et de Bete, et de Beroth, civitatibus Adarezer tulit rex David æs multum nimis.
also, from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, did King David take bronze, exceeding much.
9 Audivit autem Thou rex Emath, quod percussisset David omne robur Adarezer,
And, when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the forces of Hadadezer,
10 et misit Thou Ioram filium suum ad regem David, ut salutaret eum congratulans, et gratias ageret: eo quod expugnasset Adarezer, et percussisset eum. Hostis quippe erat Thou Adarezer, et in manu eius erant vasa aurea, et vasa argentea, et vasa ærea:
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 quæ et ipsa sanctificavit rex David Domino cum argento et auro, quæ sanctificaverat de universis gentibus, quas subegerat,
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 de Syria, et Moab, et filiis Ammon, et Philisthiim, et Amalec, et de manubiis Adarezer filii Rohob regis Soba.
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 Fecit quoque sibi David nomen cum revereteretur capta Syria in Valle Salinarum, cæsis decem et octo millibus:
And David made a name, when he returned from his smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, —eighteen thousand.
14 et posuit in Idumæa custodes, statuitque præsidium: et facta est universa Idumæa serviens David. et servavit Dominus David in omnibus ad quæcumque profectus est.
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 Et regnavit David super omnem Israel: faciebat quoque David iudicium et iustitiam omni populo suo.
