1 यसपछि यस्‍तो भयो, दाऊदले पलिश्‍तीहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे र तिनीहरूलाई परास्‍त गरे । त्यसैले दाऊदले मेथेग आमाहलाई पलिश्‍तीहरूको अधीनबाट लिए ।
Some time later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took Metheg-ammah from the hand of the Philistines.
2 त्यसपछि तिनले मोआबलाई परास्‍त गरे र तिनीहरूका मानिसहरूलाई मैदानमा सुताएर एउटा डोरीले नापे । तिनले दुई नापभित्र पर्नेहरूलाई मारे र अर्को एक नापमा पर्नेहरूलाई जीवित राखे । त्यसैले मआबीहरू दाऊदका नोकरहरू भए र तिनलाई कर तिर्न थाले ।
David also defeated the Moabites, made them lie down on the ground, and measured them off with a cord. He measured off with two lengths those to be put to death, and with one length those to be spared. So the Moabites became subject to David and brought him tribute.
3 त्‍यसपछि सोबाका राजा रहोबका छोरा हददेजेरले यूफ्रेटिस नदीनेर आफ्नो शासन पुनर्स्थापना गर्नलाई यात्रा गरिरहँदा दाऊदले तिनलाई परास्‍त गरे ।
David also defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, who had marched out to restore his dominion along the Euphrates River.
4 दाऊदले तिनीबाट १,७०० रथहरू र बिस हजार पैदल सिपाही कब्जा गरे । दाऊदले सबै रथ तान्‍ने घोडाहरूको ढोडनसा काटिदिए, तर आफूलाई एक सय रथहरू मात्र राखे ।
David captured from him a thousand chariots, seven thousand charioteers, and twenty thousand foot soldiers, and he hamstrung all the horses except a hundred he kept for the chariots.
5 जब दमसकसका आरामीहरू सोबाका राजा हददेजेरलाई सहायता गर्न आए, तब दाऊदले बाइस हजार आरामी पुरुषलाई मारे ।
When the Arameans of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand men.
6 तब दाऊदले दमसकसको आराममा छाउनी राखे र आरामीहरू तिनका नोकरहरू भए र तिनलाई कर ल्‍याए । दाऊद जहाँजहाँ गए, त्यहाँत्यहाँ परमप्रभुले तिनलाई विजय दिनुभयो ।
Then he placed garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Arameans became subject to David and brought him tribute. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
7 दाऊद हददेजेरका सेवकहरूसँग भएका सुनका ढालहरू लिए र ती यरूशलेममा ल्याए ।
And David took the gold shields that belonged to the officers of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 हददेजेरका सहरहरू तेबह र बेरोतैबाट दाऊदले धेरै काँसा ल्याए ।
And from Betah and Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a large amount of bronze.
9 दाऊदले हददेजेरका फौजलाई दाऊदले परास्‍त गरेका थिए भनी जब हमातका राजा तोऊ सुने,
When King Toi of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer,
10 तब तोऊले दाऊदलाई अभिवादन गर्न र आशिष् दिन आफ्‍नो छोरा योरामलाई पठाए, किनभने दाऊदले हददेजेरसँग युद्ध गरेका र तिनलाई पराजित गरेका थिए, किनभने हददेजेरले तोऊ विरुद्ध युद्ध गरेका थिए । योरामले आफ्‍नो साथमा सुन, चाँदी र काँसाका सामानहरू ल्याए ।
he sent his son Joram to greet King David and bless him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer, who had been at war with Toi. Joram brought with him articles of silver and gold and bronze,
11 राजा दाऊदले यी सामानहरू साथै तिनले कब्जा गरेका सबै जातिबाट लिएका चाँदी र सुनलाई परमप्रभुको निम्ति अलग गरे,
and King David dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold he had dedicated from all the nations he had subdued—
12 ती आराम, मोआब, अम्‍मोनका मानिसहरू, पलिश्‍तीहरू, र अमालेक साथै सोबाका राजा रहोबका छोरा हददेजेरबाट लुटेका सामानहरू पनि ।
from Edom and Moab, from the Ammonites and Philistines and Amalekites, and from the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 दाऊदले नुनको बेसीमा अठार हजार अरामीहरूलाई जितेर फर्कंदा तिनको नाउँ चर्चित भएको थियो ।
And David made a name for himself when he returned from striking down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
14 तिनले एदोमका सबै ठाउँमा छाउनी तैनाथ गरे र सबै एदोमी तिनका सेवकहरू भए । दाऊद जहाँजहाँ गए त्यहाँत्यहाँ नै परमप्रभुले विजय दिनुभयो ।
He placed garrisons throughout Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
15 दाऊदले सारा इस्राएलभरि शासन गरे र तिनले आफ्‍ना सबै मानिसलाई न्याय र धार्मिकता प्रदान गरे ।
Thus David reigned over all Israel and administered justice and righteousness for all his people:
16 सरूयाहका छोरा योआब सेनाका कमाण्‍डर थिए र अहीलूदका छोरा यहोशापात लेखापाल थिए ।
Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;
17 अहीतूबका छोरा सादोक र अबियाथारका छोरा अहीमेलेक पुजारीहरू थिए र सरायाह शास्‍त्री थिए ।
Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests; Seraiah was the scribe;
18 यहोयादाका छोरा बनायाह करेती र पलेथीहरूका प्रमुख थिए र दाऊदका छोराहरू राजाका मुख्य अधिकृतहरू थिए ।
Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and Pelethites; and David’s sons were priestly leaders.
