< Samuu'Eel Labaad 8 >
1 Oo taas dabadeed ayaa Daa'uud reer Falastiin laayay, oo jebiyey, oo Daa'uudna wuxuu gacantii reer Falastiin ka qaaday magaalada la yidhaahdo Meteg Ammaah.
Sometime after this, David attacked and subdued the Philistines, taking Metheg-ammah from the them.
2 Oo wuxuu kaloo laayay reer Moo'aab, oo intuu dhulka jiifiyey ayuu xadhig ku qiyaasay, oo markaasuu laba xadhig wuxuu u qiyaasay in la dilo, xadhig buuxana wuu la hadhay iyagoo nool. Oo reer Moo'aabna addoommay Daa'uud u noqdeen, oo baad bay u keeneen.
David also defeated the Moabites. He made them lie down on the ground, and he measured them with a length of cord. He measured two lengths for those to be killed, and one cord length for those to be allowed to live. So he made them subject to him and required them to pay taxes.
3 Daa'uudna wuxuu kaloo dilay boqorkii Soobaah, oo ahaa Hadadceser ina Rexob, intuu ku socday inuu dowladnimadiisii ku soo ceshado Webiga agtiisa.
David also defeated Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he tried to enforce his control along the Euphrates River.
4 Oo Daa'uud wuxuu isagii ka qabsaday kun iyo toddoba boqol oo fardooley ah, iyo labaatan kun oo nin oo lug ah; oo Daa'uudna wuxuu boqno jaray fardihii gaadhiyada waday oo dhan, laakiinse iyagii boqol gaadhifaras buu uga reebay.
David captured from him 1,000 chariots, 7,000 charioteers, and 20,000 foot soldiers. David hamstrung all the chariot horses—except he saved enough for 100 chariots.
5 Oo reer Suuriyihii Dimishaqna markay u yimaadeen inay u hiiliyaan boqorkii Soobaah oo ahaa Hadadceser, Daa'uud wuxuu reer Suuriya ka laayay laba iyo labaatan kun oo nin.
When the Arameans of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David killed twenty-two thousand of them.
6 Daa'uudna wuxuu reer Dimishaq oo Suuriya jooga dhex dhigay rugo askareed, oo reer Suuriyana Daa'uud bay addoommo u noqdeen oo baad u keeneen. Oo Rabbiguna Daa'uud guul buu siiyey meel kastoo uu tegeyba.
He placed garrisons in Aramean kingdom with its capital in Damascus, and made the Arameans subject to him and required them to pay taxes. The Lord gave David victories wherever he went.
7 Markaasaa Daa'uud soo qaaday gaashaammadii dahabka ahaa oo ay wateen addoommadii Hadadceser, wuxuuna keenay Yeruusaalem.
David took the shields of gold that belonged to Hadadezer's officers and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Oo magaalooyinkii Hadadceser oo ahaa Betax, iyo Beerootay Boqor Daa'uud wuxuu ka soo qaaday naxaas aad iyo aad u badan.
King David also took a large quantity of bronze from Betah and Berothai, towns that had belonged to Hadadezer.
9 Oo Tocii oo ahaa boqorkii Xamaad markuu maqlay in Daa'uud laayay ciidankii Hadadceser oo dhan,
When Tou, king of Hamath, learned that David had destroyed the entire army of Hadadezer, king of Zobah,
10 ayaa Tocii wiilkiisii Yooraam u soo diray inuu soo salaamo Boqor Daa'uud oo uu u soo duceeyo, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu la diriray oo dilay Hadadceser; waayo, Hadadceser wuxuu la diriri jiray Tocii. Oo Yooraamna wuxuu keenay weelal lacag ah, iyo weelal dahab ah iyo weelal naxaas ah,
he sent his son Joram to David to make friends with him and to congratulate him on his victory in battle over Hadadezer. Tou and Hadadezer had often been at war. Joram brought all kinds of gifts of gold, silver, and bronze.
11 oo kuwaasna Boqor Daa'uud wuxuu quduus uga dhigay Rabbiga, oo wuxuu ku daray lacagtii iyo dahabkii uu quduuska ka dhigay oo uu ka soo dhacay quruumihii uu jebiyey oo dhan;
King David dedicated these gifts to the Lord, along with the silver and gold he had taken from all the nations he had subdued:
12 kuwaas oo ahaa reer Suuriya, iyo reer Moo'aab, iyo reer Cammoon, iyo reer Falastiin, iyo reer Camaaleq, iyo dhicii uu boqorkii Soobaah oo ahaa Hadadceser ina Rexob ka helay.
Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalekites; as well as the plunder taken from Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 Oo Daa'uudna magac buu isu yeelay markuu ka soo noqday layntii uu reer Suuriya Dooxadii Cusbada kaga laayay siddeed iyo tobanka kun oo nin.
David also made a name for himself when he came back after defeating eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
14 Oo wuxuu Edom dhex dhigay rugo askareed; oo Edom oo dhanna wuxuu dhex dhigay rugo askareed, oo reer Edom oo dhammuna Daa'uud bay addoommo u noqdeen. Oo Rabbiguna Daa'uud guul buu siiyey meel kastoo uu tegeyba.
He placed garrisons all through Edom, and all the Edomites became subject to David. The Lord gave David victories wherever he went.
15 Oo Daa'uudna reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan buu u taliyey; oo Daa'uud wuxuu dadkiisii oo dhan ugu gar qaybshay xukun iyo caddaalad.
David ruled over all Israel. He did what was fair and right for all his people.
16 Oo waxaa ciidanka u sarrayn jiray Yoo'aab oo ay Seruuyaah dhashay; oo taariikhdana waxaa qori jiray Yehooshaafaad ina Axiiluud,
Joab, son of Zeruiah, was the army commander, and Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, kept the official records.
17 oo wadaaddona waxaa ahaa Saadooq ina Axiituub, iyo Axiimeleg ina Aabyaataar, oo Seraayaahna wuxuu ahaa karraani;
Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, son of Abiathar, were priests, while Seraiah was the secretary.
18 Benaayaah ina Yehooyaadaacna wuxuu u taliyey reer Kereetiim iyo reer Feleetii, oo Daa'uud wiilashiisuna waxay ahaayeen wasiiro.
Benaiah, son of Jehoiada was in charge of the Cherethites and Pelethites; and David's sons were priests.
