I Paralipomenon 18

1 Factum est autem post haec, ut percuteret David Philisthiim, et humiliaret eos, et tolleret Geth, et filias eius de manu Philisthiim,

And it came to pass afterwards, that David struck the Philistines, and routed them, and took Geth and its villages out of the hand of the Philistines.

2 percuteretque Moab, et fierent Moabitae servi David, offerentes ei munera.

And he struck Moab; and the Moabites became servants to David, [and] tributaries.

3 Eo tempore percussit David etiam Adarezer regem Soba regionis Hemath, quando perrexit ut dilataret imperium suum usque ad flumen Euphraten.

And David struck Adraazar king of Suba of Emath, as he was going to establish power towards the river Euphrates.

4 Cepit ergo David mille quadrigas eius, et septem millia equitum, ac viginti millia virorum peditum, subnervavitque omnes equos curruum, exceptis centum quadrigis, quas reservavit sibi.

And David took of them a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand infantry: and David houghed all the chariot [horses], but there were reserved of them a hundred chariots.

5 Supervenit autem et Syrus Damascenus, ut auxilium praeberet Adarezer regi Soba: sed et huius percussit David vigintiduo millia virorum.

And the Syrian came from Damascus to help Adraazar king of Suba; and David struck of the Syrian [army] twenty and two thousand men.

6 Et posuit milites in Damasco, ut Syria quoque serviret sibi, et offerret munera. Adiuvitque eum Dominus in cunctis, ad quae perrexerat.

And David put a garrison in Syria near Damascus; and they became tributary servants to David: and the Lord delivered David wherever he went.

7 Tulit quoque David pharetras aureas, quas habuerant servi Adarezer, et attulit eas in Ierusalem.

And David took the golden collars that were on the servants of Adraazar, and brought them to Jerusalem.

8 Necnon de Thebath, et Chun urbibus Adarezer aeris plurimum, de quo fecit Salomon mare aeneum, et columnas, et vasa aenea.

And David took out of Matabeth, and out of the chief cities of Adraazar very much brass: of this Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the brazen vessels.

9 Quod cum audisset Thou rex Hemath, percussisse videlicet David omnem exercitum Adarezer regis Soba,

And Thoa king of Emath heard that David had struck the whole force of Adraazar king of Suba.

10 misit Adoram filium suum ad regem David, ut postularet ab eo pacem, et congratularetur ei quod percussisset, et expugnasset Adarezer: adversarius quippe erat Thou Adarezer.

And he sent Aduram his son to king David to ask how he was, and to congratulate him because he had fought against Adraazar, and struck him; for Thoa was the enemy of Adraazar.

11 Sed et omnia vasa aurea, et argentea, et aenea consecravit David rex Domino, cum argento et auro, quod tulerat ex universis gentibus, tam de Idumaea, et Moab, et filiis Ammon, quam de Philisthiim et Amalec.

And all the golden and silver and brazen vessels, even these king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and the gold which he took from all the nations; from Idumaea, and Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalec.

12 Abisai vero filius Sarviae percussit Edom in Valle Salinarum, decem et octo millia:

And Abesa son of Saruia struck the Idumeans in the valley of Salt, eighteen thousand.

13 et constituit in Edom praesidium, ut serviret Idumaea David: salvavitque Dominus David in cunctis, ad quae perrexerat.

And he put garrisons in the valley; and all the Idumaeans became David's servants: and the Lord delivered David wherever he went.

14 Regnavit ergo David super universum Israel, et faciebat iudicium atque iustitiam cuncto populo suo.

So David reigned over all Israel; and he executed judgement and justice to all his people.

15 Porro Ioab filius Sarviae erat super exercitum, et Iosaphat filius Ahilud a commentariis.

And Joab the son of Saruia [was] over the army, and Josaphat the son of Achilud [was] recorder.

16 Sadoc autem filius Achitob, et Ahimelech, filius Abiathar, sacerdotes: et Susa, scriba.

And Sadoc son of Achitob, and Achimelech son of Abiathar, [were] the priests; and Susa [was] the scribe;

17 Banaias quoque filius Ioiadae super legiones Cerethi, et Phelethi: porro filii David, primi ad manum regis.

and Banaeas the son of Jodae [was] over the Cherethite and the Phelethite, and the sons of David were the chief deputies of the king.
