1 Nokufamba kwenguva, Dhavhidhi akakunda vaFiristia akavaisa pasi pake, uye akavatorera Gati nemisha yakaripoteredza kuti ribve pasi poruoko rwavaFiristia.

And it came to pass after this, that David smote the Philistines, and humbled them; and he took Gath and its dependent towns out of the hand of the Philistines.

2 Dhavhidhi akakundawo vaMoabhu, uye vakava pasi pake, vakamuvigira mutero.

And he smote Moab, and the Moabites became David's servants, bringing presents.

3 Pamusoro pezvo Dhavhidhi akarwisa Hadhadhezeri mambo weZobha kusvikira kuHamati, paakaenda kundosimbisa kutonga kwake achitevedza Rwizi Yufuratesi.

David also smote Hadar'ezer the king of Zobah, at Chamath, as he went to establish his dominion at the river Euphrates.

4 Dhavhidhi akapamba chiuru chengoro dzake, vachairi vengoro zviuru zvinomwe navarwi vetsoka zviuru makumi maviri. Akadimbura marunda amakumbo amabhiza ose kusara kwezana ramabhiza engoro.

And David captured from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand men on foot; and David hamstringed all the chariot-teams, but reserved of them a hundred chariot-teams.

5 VaAramu veDhamasiko pavakauya kuzobatsira Hadhadhezeri mambo weZobha, Dhavhidhi akauraya zviuru makumi maviri nezviviri zvavo.

And the Syrians of Damascus came to aid Hadar'ezer the king of Zobah, when David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.

6 Akaisa mapoka avarwi vake muumambo hwavaAramu veDhamasiko, uye vaAramu vakava pasi pake uye vakamuvigira mutero. Jehovha akapa Dhavhidhi kukunda kwose kwose kwaakaenda.

Then did David put [garrisons] in Syria of Damascus, and the Syrians became unto David servants, bringing presents. And the Lord helped David withersoever he went.

And David took the quivers of gold that were on the servants of Hadar'ezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

8 Kubva kuTebha nokuKuni, maguta aHadhadhezeri, Dhavhidhi akatora ndarira zhinji, yakazoshandiswa naSoromoni kugadzira gungwa rendarira, nembiru uye nezvimwe zvinhu zvakasiyana-siyana zvakazogadzirwa nendarira.

And from Tibchath, and from Kun, cities of Hadar'ezer, did David take exceedingly much copper; thereof made Solomon the copper sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of copper.

9 Tou mambo weHamati paakanzwa kuti Dhavhidhi akanga akunda hondo yose yaHadhadhezeri mambo weZobha,

And when To'u the king of Chamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadar'ezer the king of Zobah:

10 akatuma mwanakomana wake Hadhoramu akauya nezvinhu zvamarudzi ose zvegoridhe nesirivha nendarira.

Then did he send Hadoram his son unto king David, to ask him after his well-being, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadar'ezer, and smitten him: for Hadar'ezer had been engaged in wars with To'u; and [he had with him] all manner of vessels of gold and silver and copper.

11 Mambo Dhavhidhi akakumikidza zvipo izvi kuna Jehovha sezvaakanga aita nesirivha negoridhe, zvaakanga atora kubva kundudzi idzi dzose dzaiti: Edhomu, Moabhu, vaAmoni, vaFiristia neAmareki.

Also these did king David sanctify unto the Lord, with the silver and the gold that he had carried away from all the nations, from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of 'Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from 'Amalek.

12 Abhishai mwanakomana waZeruya akauraya vaEdhomu zviuru gumi nezvisere muMupata weMunyu.

And Abshai the son of Zeruyah smote of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand [men].

13 Akaisa mapoka avarwi muEdhomu uye vaEdhomu vose vakava pasi poutongi hwaDhavhidhi. Jehovha akapa Dhavhidhi kukunda kwose kwose kwaakaenda.

And he put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became servants unto David. And the Lord helped David withersoever he went.

14 Dhavhidhi akatonga Israeri achiita zvose zvakarurama uye zvakanaka kuvanhu vake vose.

And David reigned over all Israel, and he did what is just and right unto all his people.

15 Joabhu mwanakomana waZeruya aitungamirira hondo; Jehoshafati mwanakomana waAhirudhi aiva munyori wenhoroondo;

And Joab the son of Zeruyah was over the army, and Jehoshaphat the son of Achilud, recorder.

And Zadok the son of Achitub, and Abimelech the son of Ebyathar, were [the] priests; and Shavsha was scribe;
