2 Samoela 8
1 Ie añe, linafa’ i Davide o nte-Pilistio le navoho’e ambane vaho tinava’ i Davide am-pità’ o nte Pilistio ty renen-drova’ iareo.
Now after these things, it happened that David struck the Philistines, and he humbled them. And David took the bridle of tribute from the hand of the Philistines.
2 Linafa’e ka o nte-Moabeo le zinehe’e an-taly, ie nampibaboheñe an-tane eo; nanjehe taly roe ho zamañe, le nitana’e ho veloñe ty taly raike. Aa le nitoroñe i Davide o nte-Moabeo, nañenga ama’e.
And he struck Moab, and he measured them with a line, leveling them to the ground. Now he measured with two lines, one to kill, and one to keep alive. And Moab was made to serve David under tribute.
3 Linafa’ i Davide ka t’i Kadadetsere ana’ i Rekobe, mpanjaka’ i Tsobà, amy nionjona’e mb’ an-tsaka Eofrata mb’eo hampijadoñe ty fifehea’e.
And David struck Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, the king of Zobah, when he set out to rule over the river Euphrates.
4 Tinava’ i Davide ama’e ty mpiningi-tsoavala arivo-tsi-fiton-jato, naho lahindefoñe ro’ ale; le nanoe’ i Davide fira-sintake iaby o soavalan-tsareteo naho tsy ty zato nahaja’e ho an-tsarete zato.
And from his troops, David seized one thousand seven hundred horsemen and twenty thousand foot soldiers. And he cut the sinew of the leg in all the chariot horses. But he left aside enough of them for one hundred chariots.
5 Aa ie pok’eo o nte-Arame boake Damasek’ añeo hañolotse i Kadadetsere mpanjaka’ i Tsobà, le zinevo’ i Davide ty ro-ale-tsi-ro-arivo lahindefo’ o nte-Arameo.
And the Syrians of Damascus arrived, so that they might bring reinforcements to Hadadezer, the king of Zobah. And David struck down twenty-two thousand men of the Syrians.
6 Nampipoha’ i Davide e Arame’ i Damasek’ ao ty mpirai-lian-dahindefoñe naho nanoeñe mpitoro’ i Davide o nte-Arameo, vaho nañenga ama’e. Tinolo’ Iehovà fandreketañe amy ze nomba’e iaby t’i Davide.
And David positioned a garrison in Syria of Damascus. And Syria served David under tribute. And the Lord assisted David in all things whatsoever that he set out to accomplish.
7 Rinambe’ i Davide ze fikalan-defo volamena amo mpitoro’ i Kadadetsereo vaho nasese’e e Ierosalaime añe.
And David took the armbands of gold, which the servants of Hadadezer had, and he brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Le nangalà’ i Davide torisike tsifotofoto ty Betà naho i Berotae, rova’ i Kadadetsere.
And from Betah and Beeroth, cities of Hadadezer, king David took an exceedingly great amount of brass.
9 Aa ie jinanji’ i Toy, mpanjaka’ i Kamate te fonga zinevo’ i Davide ty valobohò’ i Kadadetsere,
Then Toi, the king of Hamath, heard that David had struck down the entire strength of Hadadezer.
10 le nampihitrife’ i Toy amy Davide mpanjaka ty ana’e Iorame, hañontane aze naho hitata aze ty amy nialia’e i Kadadetsere naho nahagioke; fa nimpialy amy Toy t’i Kadadetsere, le nandesa’ Iorame fanake volafoty naho fanake volamena vaho fanake torisike.
And so, Toi sent his son Joram to king David, so that he might greet him with congratulations, and give thanks, because he had fought against Hadadezer and had struck him down. For indeed, Toi was the enemy of Hadadezer. And in his hand were vessels of gold, and vessels of silver, and vessels of brass.
11 Nengae’ i Davide mpanjaka am’ Iehovà izay, mindre amo volafoty naho volamena navi’e boak’ amo hene fifeheañe nampiambanea’eoo:
And king David also sanctified these things to the Lord, with the silver and gold that he had sanctified from all the peoples whom he had subdued:
12 boak’ Arame naho i Moabe naho amo ana’ i Amoneo naho amo nte-Pilistio naho amy Amaleke vaho amo nikopaheñe amy Kadadetsere, ana’ i Rekobe, mpanjaka’ i Tsobàio.
from Syria, and Moab, and the sons Ammon, and the Philistines, and Amalek, and from the best spoils of Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, the king of Zobah.
13 Nahazo asiñe t’i Davide te nimpoly amy nandafañe o nte-Arameo am-bavatanen-tsira ao, ondaty rai-ale-tsi-valo-arivo.
David also made a name for himself when he returned from seizing Syria, in the Valley of the Salt Pits, having cut down eighteen thousand.
14 Nampipoha’e mpirai’ lia t’i Edome, toe nitsitsihe’e mpirai-lia ty Edome vaho hene natao mpitoro’ i Davide o nte-Edomeo. Natolo’ Iehovà amy Davide ty fandreketañe ndra aia’aia ty nomba’e.
And he positioned guards in Edom, and he stationed a garrison. And all of Edom was made to serve David. And the Lord assisted David in all things whatsoever that he set out to accomplish.
15 Nifelehe’ i Davide t’Israele iaby naho nizaka ze hene ondati’e an-kavantañañe naho an-kavañonañe.
And David reigned over all of Israel. And David accomplished judgment and justice with all his people.
16 Ioabe ana’ i Tseroia ty nifehe i valobohòkey; naho mpamolily t’Iehosafate, ana’i Akilode;
Now Joab, the son Zeruiah, was over the army. And Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the keeper of records.
17 mpisoroñe t’i Tsadoke ana’ i Akitobe naho i Akimelek’ ana’ i Abiatare; naho mpitan-tsokitse t’i Sereià;
And Zadok, the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, were the priests. And Seraiah was the scribe.
18 naho mpifehe’ o nte-Keretìo naho o nte-Peletìo t’i Benaià, ana’ Iehodaià; vaho talèm-pifehe o ana’ i Davideo.
And Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the Cherethites and Pelethites. But the sons of David were priests.
