1 Imilando 18
1 Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho uDavida watshaya amaFilisti, wawehlisela phansi, wathatha iGathi lemizana yayo ekususa esandleni samaFilisti.
MAHOPE mai o keia mea, pepehi aku la o Davida i na Pilisetia, a hoopau ia lakou; a lawe ae la oia ia Gata, a me na kulanahale ona mailoko ae o ka lima o na Pilisetia.
2 Watshaya loMowabi; amaMowabi asesiba zinceku zikaDavida, aletha umthelo.
Pepehi aku hoi oia i ka Moaba: a lilo mai la na Moaba i poe kauwa na Davida, a lawe mai la hoi lakou i ka waiwai hookupu.
3 UDavida watshaya loHadadezeri inkosi yeZoba kuze kube seHamathi lapho esiyamisa amandla akhe emfuleni iYufrathi.
Pepehi aku la hoi o Davida ia Hadarezera ke alii o Zoba, a hiki i Hamata, ia ia i hele aku ai e hoopaa i kona aupuni ma ka muliwai o Euperate.
4 UDavida wasethumba kuye inqola eziyinkulungwane, labamabhiza abazinkulungwane eziyisikhombisa, lamadoda ahamba ngenyawo azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili; uDavida wasequma imisipha yawo wonke amabhiza enqola, kodwa watshiya kuwo amabhiza enqola alikhulu.
Lawe ae la o Davida mai ona aku i na halekaa he tausani, me na hoohololio ehiku tausani, a me na tausani kanaka kani wawae he iwakalua: oki iho la hoi o Davida i ke olona wawae o na lio a pau o na halekaa; aka, hookoe iho la ia i hookahi haneri o na lio halekaa.
5 Lapho amaSiriya eDamaseko eza ukusiza uHadadezeri inkosi yeZoba, uDavida watshaya kumaSiriya amadoda azinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amabili lambili.
A i ka hele ana mai o ko Suria no Damaseko e kokua mamuli o Hadarezera, ke alii o Zoba, pepehi aku la o Davida i ko Suria he iwakaluakumamalua na tausani kanaka.
6 UDavida wasebeka amabutho enqaba eSiriya yeDamaseko; amaSiriya asesiba zinceku zikaDavida, aletha umthelo. Ngokunjalo iNkosi yamsindisa uDavida loba ngaphi aya khona.
A hana iho la o Davida i na pakaua ma Suria no Damaseko, a lilo ae la ko Suria i poe kauwa na Davida, a lawe mai la i ka waiwai hookupu. Pela o Iehova i malama mai ai ia Davida i na wahi a pau ana i hele ai.
7 UDavida wasethatha izihlangu zegolide ezaziphezu kwenceku zikaHadadezeri, waziletha eJerusalema.
Lawe ae la hoi o Davida i na palekaua gula maluna o na kauwa a Hadarezera ke alii o Zoba, a lawe mai la ia mau mea i Ierusalema.
8 Njalo eTibhathi leKuni, imizi kaHadadezeri, uDavida wathatha ithusi elinengi kakhulu; uSolomoni enza ngalo ulwandle lwethusi, lezinsika, lezitsha zethusi.
Lawe mai la hoi o Davida i ke keleawe he nui loa, mai Tibehata mai. a mai Kuna hoi, o na kulanakaubale ia o Hadarezera; ka mea keia i hanaia'i e Solomona ke kai keleawe, me na pau a me na ipu keleawe.
9 UTowu inkosi yeHamathi esizwa ukuthi uDavida utshayile ibutho lonke likaHadadezeri inkosi yeZoba,
A lohe ae la o Tou ke alii o Hamata, ua pepehi o Davida i ka poe kaua a pau o Hadarezera, o ke alii no Zoba;
10 wathuma uHadoramu indodana yakhe enkosini uDavida ukuyibuza impilakahle lokuyibusisa, ngenxa yokuthi ilwe loHadadezeri yamtshaya, (ngoba uHadadezeri wayengumuntu wezimpi esilwa loTowu), elezitsha zonke zegolide lezesiliva lezethusi.
Hoouna mai la oia i kana keiki ia Hadorama io Davida la, e hooaloha ia ia, a e hoomaikai ia ia, no kona kaua ana ia Hadarezera, a ua pepehi ia ia; (no ka mea, he kanaka o Hadarezera i kaua aku me Tou; ) a me ia no na ipu gula, na ipu kala a me na ipu keleawe he nui loa.
11 Lalezo inkosi uDavida yazehlukanisela uJehova kanye lesiliva legolide eyakuletha kuvela ezizweni zonke, eEdoma, lakoMowabi, lebantwaneni bakoAmoni, lakumaFilisti, lakumaAmaleki.
Hoolaa aku la o Davida ke alii ia mau mea no Iehova, me ke kala a me ke gula ana i lawe mai ai no na lahuikanaka a pau; mai ka Edoma mai, mai ka Moaba mai, a mai ka poe mamo mai a Amona, a mai ko Pilisetia, a mai ka Amaleka mai.
12 UAbishayi indodana kaZeruya wasetshaya amaEdoma esihotsheni setshwayi, izinkulungwane ezilitshumi lesificaminwembili.
A pepehi aku la o Abisai ke keiki a Zeruia i na kanaka o Edoma he umikumamawalu tausani, ma ke awawa paakai.
13 Wasebeka amabutho enqaba eEdoma; wonke amaEdoma asesiba zinceku zikaDavida. Ngokunjalo iNkosi yamsindisa uDavida loba ngaphi aya khona.
Hana iho la hoi oia i na pakaua ma Edoma: a lilo ae la ka Edoma a pau i poe kauwa na Davida. Pela o Iehova i malama mai ai ia Davida i na wahi a pau ana i hele aku ai.
14 UDavida wabusa-ke phezu kukaIsrayeli wonke, wayesenza isahlulelo lokulunga kubo bonke abantu bakhe.
A nohoalii iho la o Davida maluna o ka Iseraela a pau, a hooko aku la i ke kanawai me ka hoopono aku iwaena o kona poe kanaka a pau.
15 Njalo uJowabi indodana kaZeruya wayephezu kwebutho; loJehoshafathi indodana kaAhiludi wayengumabhalane;
A o Ioaba ke keiki a Zeruia, oia ka lunakaua; a o Iehosapata ke keiki a Ahiluda ke kakaolelo.
16 loZadoki indodana kaAhitubi loAbhimeleki indodana kaAbhiyatha babengabapristi; loShavisha wayengumbhali;
A o Zadoka ke keiki a Ahituba, a me Abimeleka ke keiki a Abiatara na kahuna; a o Savasa ke kakauolelo;
17 loBhenaya indodana kaJehoyada wayephezu kwamaKerethi lamaPelethi; lamadodana kaDavida ayezinhloko eceleni kwenkosi.
A o Benaia ke keiki a Iehoiada, maluna ia o ka poe Kereti a me ka poe Peleti: a o na keikikane a Davida, he mau luna lakou me ke alii.
