Ii Samuelis 8
1 factum est autem post haec percussit David Philisthim et humiliavit eos et tulit David frenum tributi de manu Philisthim
Some time later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took Metheg-ammah from the hand of the Philistines.
2 et percussit Moab et mensus est eos funiculo coaequans terrae mensus est autem duos funiculos unum ad occidendum et unum ad vivificandum factusque est Moab David serviens sub tributo
David also defeated the Moabites, made them lie down on the ground, and measured them off with a cord. He measured off with two lengths those to be put to death, and with one length those to be spared. So the Moabites became subject to David and brought him tribute.
3 et percussit David Adadezer filium Roob regem Soba quando profectus est ut dominaretur super flumen Eufraten
David also defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, who had marched out to restore his dominion along the Euphrates River.
4 et captis David ex parte eius mille septingentis equitibus et viginti milibus peditum subnervavit omnes iugales curruum dereliquit autem ex eis centum currus
David captured from him a thousand chariots, seven thousand charioteers, and twenty thousand foot soldiers, and he hamstrung all the horses except a hundred he kept for the chariots.
5 venit quoque Syria Damasci ut praesidium ferret Adadezer regi Soba et percussit David de Syria viginti duo milia virorum
When the Arameans of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand men.
6 et posuit David praesidium in Syria Damasci factaque est Syria David serviens sub tributo servavit Dominus David in omnibus ad quaecumque profectus est
Then he placed garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Arameans became subject to David and brought him tribute. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
7 et tulit David arma aurea quae habebant servi Adadezer et detulit ea in Hierusalem
And David took the gold shields that belonged to the officers of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 et de Bete et de Beroth civitatibus Adadezer tulit rex David aes multum nimis
And from Betah and Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a large amount of bronze.
9 audivit autem Thou rex Emath quod percussisset David omne robur Adadezer
When King Toi of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer,
10 et misit Thou Ioram filium suum ad regem David ut salutaret eum congratulans et gratias ageret eo quod expugnasset Adadezer et percussisset eum hostis quippe erat Thou Adadezer et in manu eius erant vasa argentea et vasa aurea et vasa aerea
he sent his son Joram to greet King David and bless him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer, who had been at war with Toi. Joram brought with him articles of silver and gold and bronze,
11 quae et ipsa sanctificavit rex David Domino cum argento et auro quae sanctificaverat de universis gentibus quas subegerat
and King David dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold he had dedicated from all the nations he had subdued—
12 de Syria et Moab et filiis Ammon et Philisthim et Amalech et de manubiis Adadezer filii Roob regis Soba
from Edom and Moab, from the Ammonites and Philistines and Amalekites, and from the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 fecit quoque sibi David nomen cum reverteretur capta Syria in valle Salinarum caesis duodecim milibus
And David made a name for himself when he returned from striking down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
14 et posuit in Idumea custodes statuitque praesidium et facta est universa Idumea serviens David et servavit Dominus David in omnibus ad quaecumque profectus est
He placed garrisons throughout Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
15 et regnavit David super omnem Israhel faciebat quoque David iudicium et iustitiam omni populo suo
Thus David reigned over all Israel and administered justice and righteousness for all his people:
16 Ioab autem filius Sarviae erat super exercitum porro Iosaphat filius Ahilud erat a commentariis
Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;
17 et Sadoc filius Achitob et Ahimelech filius Abiathar sacerdotes et Saraias scriba
Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests; Seraiah was the scribe;
18 Banaias autem filius Ioiada super Cherethi et Felethi filii autem David sacerdotes erant
Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and Pelethites; and David’s sons were priestly leaders.
