After this it happened that David struck the Philistines, and subdued them, and David took the bridle of Ammah out of the hand of the Philistines.

He struck Moab, and measured them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground; and he measured two lines to put to death, and one full line to keep alive. The Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.

David struck also Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River.
4 Na kotahi mano ana hariata i riro mai i a Rawiri, e whitu rau hoki nga hoia eke hoiho, e rua tekau mano nga tangata haere i raro. Na whakangongea ana e Rawiri nga hoiho o nga hariata katoa; i whakatoea ia etahi mo nga hariata kotahi rau.

10 Katahi ka tono a Toi i a Iorama, i tana tama ki a Kingi Rawiri ki te oha ki a ia, ki te manaaki hoki i a ia; mona i whawhai ki a Hararetere, i patu hoki i a ia: he hoariri hoki a Hararetere no Toi: i te ringa ano o Iorama etahi mea hiriwa, mea k oura, mea parahi.
then Toi 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 Toi. And he brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze.

The King also dedicated these to Jehovah, with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued;

And David made a name for himself when he returned from defeating the Arameans. And Abishai son of Zeruiah defeated the Edomites in the Valley of Salt--eighteen thousand.
14 A i whakanohoia e ia etahi hoia pupuri ki Eroma; he mea whakanoho puta noa i Eroma katoa ana hoia pupuri, a ka meinga nga Eromi katoa hei pononga ma Rawiri. A whakaorangia ana a Rawiri e Ihowa i ona haerenga katoa.
