1 Tantara 18
1 Ary nony afaka izany, dia nandresy ny Filistina Davida ka nampietry azy, ary Gata sy ny zana-bohiny dia nesoriny tamin’ ny tanan’ ny Filistina.
After this it came about that David attacked the Philistines and defeated them. He took Gath and its villages out of the Philistines' control.
2 Ary nandresy ny Moabita koa izy, ka dia tonga mpanompon’ i Davida nandoa hetra ireo.
Then he defeated Moab, and the Moabites became servants to David and paid him tribute.
3 Dia resin’ i Davida koa Hadarezera, mpanjakan’ i Zoba akaikin’ i Hamata, tamin’ izy lasa nampiorina ny fanjakany teo amoron’ ny ony Eofrata.
David then defeated Hadadezer, king of Zobah at Hamath, as Hadadezer was traveling to establish his rule by the Euphrates River.
4 Ary Davida nahazo babo kalesy arivo taminy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly fito arivo ary miaramila an-tongotra roa alina; ary notraingotraingoin’ i Davida avokoa ny soavalin-kalesy rehetra, fa ny tokony ho amin’ ny kalesy zato ihany no navelany.
David captured from him a thousand chariots, seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen. David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved enough of them for a hundred chariots.
5 Ary nony tonga ny Syriana avy any Damaskosy hanampy an’ i Hadarezera, mpanjakan’ i Zoba, dia nahafatesan’ i Davida olona roa arivo sy roa alina ny Syriana.
When the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David killed twenty-two thousand Aramean men.
6 Ary nisy namponenin’ i Davida tany Syria any Damaskosy; dia tonga mpanompon’ i Davida ny Syriana ka nandoa hetra. Fa Jehovah nampahery an’ i Davida teny amin’ izay rehetra nalehany.
Then David put garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Arameans became servants to him and brought him tribute. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
7 Ary nalain’ i Davida ny ampinga volamena teny amin’ ny mpanompon’ i Hadarezera ka nentiny nankany Jerosalema.
David took the golden shields that were on Hadadezer's servants and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Ary tao Tibata sy Kona, tanànan’ i Hadarezera, no nahazoan’ i Davida babo varahina be dia be, ary izany no nanaovan’ i Solomona ilay tavin-drano varahina lehibe sy ny andry ary ny fanaka varahina.
From Tebah and Kun, cities of Hadadezer, David took very much bronze. It was with this bronze that Solomon later made the bronze basin called “The Sea,” the pillars, and the bronze equipment.
9 Ary nony ren’ i Toy, mpanjakan’ i Hamata, fa Davida efa naharesy ny miaramila rehetra an’ i Hadarezera, mpanjakan’ i Zoba,
When Tou, king of Hamath, heard that David had defeated all the army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,
10 dia naniraka an’ i Hadorama zanany hankany amin’ i Davida mpanjaka izy hiarahaba sy hisaotra azy noho ny niadiany tamin’ i Hadarezera sy ny nahareseny azy (fa Hadarezera dia fahavalon’ i Toy), sady nampitondrainy fanaka volamena sy volafotsy ary varahina izay samy maro karazana izy.
and so Tou sent Hadoram his son to King David to greet him and to bless him. He did this because David had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him, and because Tou had often been at war with Hadadezer. Tou also sent David many different sorts of articles made of gold and silver and bronze.
11 Dia nohamasinin’ i Davida mpanjaka ho an’ i Jehovah koa izany mbamin’ ny volafotsy sy ny volamena nentiny avy tamin’ ny firenena rehetra, dia tany Edoma sy Moaba sy ny taranak’ i Amona sy ny Filistina ary ny Amalekita
King David set these objects apart to Yahweh, together with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations: Edom, Moab, the people of Ammon, the Philistines, and Amalek.
12 Ary Abisay, zanak’ i Zeroia, naharesy ny Edomita teo amin’ ny Lohasahan-tsira, dia lehilahy valo arivo sy iray alina.
Abishai son of Zeruiah killed eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
13 Ary nametraka miaramila tany Edoma izy; dia tonga mpanompon’ i Davida ny Edomita rehetra. Fa Jehovah nampahery an’ i Davida teny amin’ izay rehetra nalehany.
He placed garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David's servants. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
14 Ary Davida nanjaka tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra ka nitsara sy nitondra ny vahoakany rehetra tamin’ ny fahamarinana.
David reigned over all Israel, and he administered justice and righteousness to all his people.
15 Ary Joaba, zanak’ i Zeroia, no komandin’ ny miaramila; ary Josafata, zanak’ i Ahiloda, no mpitadidy ny raharaham-panjakana.
Joab son of Zeruiah was the commander of the army, and Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was recorder.
16 Ary Zadoka, zanak’ i Ahitoba, sy Abimeleka, zanak’ i Abiatara, no mpisorona; ary Saosa no mpanoratra.
Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests, and Shavsha was scribe.
17 Ary Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, no mpifehy ny miaramila mpiambina andriana; ary ny zanak’ i Davida no lehibe tamin’ izay nanolotra ny mpanjaka.
Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Kerethites and Pelethites, and David's sons were the chief officials at the hand of the king.
