1 Awo oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, Dawudi n’awangula Abafirisuuti, era n’awamba ne Gaasi n’ebyalo ebyali bikyetoolodde okuva mu mukono gw’Abafirisuuti.
After this it happened, that David struck the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and its towns out of the hand of the Philistines.
2 Dawudi n’awangula n’Abamowaabu, ne bafuuka baddu be, ne bamuwanga obusuulu.
He struck Moab; and the Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.
3 Ate era Dawudi yalwanagana ne Kadalezeri kabaka w’e Zoba okutuukira ddala e Kamasi, bwe yali ng’anyweza okufuga kwe ku nsalo ey’Omugga Fulaati.
David struck Hadadezer king of Zobah to Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Perath.
4 Dawudi n’amuwambako amagaali lukumi, n’abeebagala embalaasi abasajja kasanvu, n’abasajja abeebigere emitwalo ebiri. Embalaasi endala zonna ez’amagaali n’azitema enteega, ne yeerekerawo kikumi.
David took from him one thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen; and David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for one hundred chariots.
5 Awo Abasuuli ab’e Ddamasiko bwe bajja okudduukirira Kadalezeri kabaka w’e Zoba, Dawudi n’abattamu abantu emitwalo ebiri mu enkumi bbiri.
When the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck of the Arameans twenty-two thousand men.
6 N’ateeka olusiisira lw’eggye lye mu Busuuli e Ddamasiko, era Abasuuli baafuuka baweereza be, ne bamutonera ebirabo. Mukama n’awa Dawudi obuwanguzi buli gye yatabaalanga.
Then David put garrisons in Aram of Damascus; and the Arameans became servants to David, and brought tribute. The LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.
7 Dawudi n’atwala engabo eza zaabu abaserikale ba Kadalezeri ze baasitulanga, n’azireeta e Yerusaalemi.
And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Mu Tibukasi ne mu Kuni, ebibuga ebyali ebya Kadadezeri n’aggyayo ebikomo bingi nnyo, era ebyo Sulemaani bye yakolamu ennyanja ey’ekikomo, n’empagi, n’ebintu eby’ebikomo ebirala.
From Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took very much bronze, with which Solomon made the bronze sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of bronze.
9 Awo kabaka Toowu ow’e Kamasi bwe yawulira nga Dawudi awangudde eggye lyonna erya Kadadezeri, kabaka w’e Zoba
When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,
10 n’atuma mutabani we Kadolaamu eri kabaka Dawudi okumulamusaako n’okumuyozaayoza okuwangula olutalo wakati we ne Kadadezeri, kubanga Kadadezeri yalwananga ne Toowu. Kadolaamu yaleeta zaabu, n’effeeza, n’ebikomo, nga bya ngeri za ngyawulo.
he sent Hadoram his son to king David, to Greet him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him; (for Hadadezer had wars with Tou; ) and he had with him all kinds of vessels of gold and silver and bronze.
11 Ebintu byonna ebyaleetebwa, kabaka Dawudi yabiwonga eri Mukama, nga bwe yakola effeeza ne zaabu gye yawamba ku mawanga amalala nga Edomu ne Mowaabu, n’Abamoni, n’Abafirisuuti, ne Amaleki.
The King also dedicated these to the LORD, with the silver and the gold that he took from all the nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the people of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.
12 Ye Abisaayi mutabani wa Zeruyiya yattira abasajja ba Edomu omutwalo gumu mu kanaana mu Kiwonvu eky’Omunnyo.
Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah struck of the Edomites in the Valley of Salt eighteen thousand.
13 Era yateeka olusiisira lw’abaserikale mu Edomu, era aba Edomu bonna ne bafuuka baweereza ba Dawudi. Mukama n’awa Dawudi obuwanguzi mu bifo byonna gye yatabaalanga.
He put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became servants to David. The LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.
14 Dawudi n’afuga Isirayiri yenna, mu bwenkanya ne mu butuukirivu abantu be bonna.
David reigned over all Israel; and he executed justice and righteousness to all his people.
15 Yowaabu mutabani wa Seruyiya ye yali omuduumizi w’eggye; Yekosafaati mutabani wa Akirudi nga ye mujjukiza;
Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
16 Zadooki mutabani wa Akitubu ne Abimereki mutabani wa Abiyasaali be baali bakabona; Savusa ye yali muwandiisi;
and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were priests; and Shisha was scribe;
17 Benaya mutabani wa Yekoyaada ye yakuliranga Abakeresi n’Abaperesi; ate batabani ba Dawudi baali bakungu bakulu ddala era nga babeera ku lusegere lwa kabaka.
and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief about the king.
