2 Saamuʼeel 8
1 Ergasii Daawit Filisxeemota moʼatee of jala isaan galfate; magaalaa Meeteeg Amaa jedhamtus harka Filisxeemotaatii baasee fudhate.
After this, David struck the Philistines and subdued them; and David took the bridle of the mother city out of the hand of the Philistines.
2 Daawit Moʼaabotas ni moʼate. Lafa irra tarree ciibsees funyoon isaan safare. Kanneen tarree galan keessaas funyoo lama lama safaree ajjeese; kanneen funyoo tokko tokko safare immoo akka isaan jiraatan eeyyameef. Kanaafuu Moʼaabonni Daawit jalatti bulanii gibira fidaniif.
He defeated 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.
3 Kana irrattis Daawit yeroo Laga Efraaxiis bira yaadannoo ofii deebisee dhaabbachuu dhaqetti mooticha Zoobaa, Hadaadezer ilma Rehoob moʼate.
David also struck Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River.
4 Daawitis gaariiwwan waraanaa isaa kuma tokko, abbootii fardaa kuma torbaa fi loltoota lafoo kuma digdama isa irraa fudhate. Innis fardeen gaariiwwanii dhibba tokko qofa hambisee kanneen hafan hunda mogolee kukkute.
David took from him one thousand seven hundred horsemen and twenty thousand footmen. David hamstrung the chariot horses, but reserved enough of them for one hundred chariots.
5 Yeroo warri Sooriyaa kanneen Damaasqoo jiraatan Hadaadezer mooticha Zoobaa gargaaruuf dhufanittis Daawit isaan keessaa nama kuma digdamii lama fixe.
When the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck twenty two thousand men of the Syrians.
6 Ergasiis kutaa bulchiinsa Damaasqoo kan biyya Sooriyaa keessa qubata loltootaa dhaabbate. Warri Sooriyaas isa jalatti bulanii gibira fidaniif. Waaqayyos Daawitiif lafa inni dhaqe hundatti mooʼicha kenne.
Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought tribute. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
7 Daawitis gaachana warqee kan ajajjoonni loltoota Hadaadezer qabatan fudhatee gara Yerusaalem fide.
David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Daawit Mootichi magaalaawwan Hadaadezer jechuunis Bexaatii fi Beerootaay keessaa sibiila naasii akka malee baayʼee fudhate.
From Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a great quantity of bronze.
9 Tooʼiin mootiin Hamaati yommuu akka Daawit guutummaa loltoota Hadaadezer moʼate dhagaʼetti,
When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer,
10 akka inni sababii moʼannaa Daawit Mootichi Tooʼiin wal lolaa ture sun waraana keessatti Hadaadezer irratti argateetiif harka isa fuudhee dhaamsa gammachuu isaaf dabarsuuf ilma ofii isaa Yooraamin gara isaatti erge. Yooraamis kennaawwan meetii irraa, warqee fi naasii irraa hojjetaman fide.
then Toi sent Joram 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. Joram brought with him vessels of silver, vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze.
11 Daawit Mootichis akkuma meetii fi warqee saboota biraa kanneen of jala galfatu hunda irraa boojiʼee ture godhe sana miʼoota kanneen illee Waaqayyoof addaan baase.
King David also dedicated these to Yahweh, with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued—
12 Warri inni of jala galfates Edoom, Moʼaab, Amoonota, Filisxeemotaa fi Amaaleq turan. Boojuu Hadaadezer ilma Rehoob mooticha Zoobaa irraa boojiʼes akkasuma addaan baase.
of Syria, of Moab, of the children of Ammon, of the Philistines, of Amalek, and of the plunder of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 Daawitis erga Sulula Soogiddaa keessatti Edoomota kuma kudha saddeet fixee deebiʼee booddee beekamaa taʼe.
David earned a reputation when he returned from striking down eighteen thousand men of the Syrians in the Valley of Salt.
14 Innis guutummaa Edoom keessa qubata loltootaa dhaabbate; Edoomonni hundinuus Daawitiif ni garbooman. Waaqayyos lafa inni dhaqe hundatti Daawitiif moʼannaa ni kenne.
He put garrisons in Edom. Throughout all Edom, he put garrisons, and all the Edomites became servants to David. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.
15 Daawit guutummaa Israaʼel irratti mootii taʼee saba isaa hundaaf murtii qajeelaa fi qajeelummaadhaan hojjete.
David reigned over all Israel; and David executed justice and righteousness for all his people.
16 Yooʼaab ilmi Zeruuyaa hoogganaa loltootaa ture; Yehooshaafaax ilmi Ahiiluud immoo galmeessaa ture.
Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army, Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder,
