2 Samuelsboken 8
1 Och det begaf sig derefter, att David slog de Philisteer, och förnedrade dem, och tog träldomsbetslet utu de Philisteers hand.
And after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them: and David took Metheg-ammah out of the hand of the Philistines.
2 Han slog ock de Moabiter så till jordena, att han två delar drap, och en del lät lefvandes blifva. Alltså vordo de Moabiter David underdånige, så att de förde skänker till honom.
And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the ground; even with two lines he measured to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And [so] the Moabites became David's servants, [and] brought gifts.
3 David slog ock HadadEser, Rehobs son, Konungen i Zoba, då han drog ut till att hemta sin magt igen, vid den älfven Phrath.
David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates.
4 Och David fångade af dem tusende och sjuhundrad resenärar, och tjugutusend fotfolk; och hasade alla vagnhästar, och behöll qvar hundrade vagnar.
And David took from him a thousand [chariots], and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all the chariot -[horses], but reserved of them [for] a hundred chariots.
5 Så kommo de Syrer af Damascon, till att hjelpa HadadEser, Konungen i Zoba; och David slog de Syrer, tu och tjugu tusend män;
And when the Syrians of Damascus came to succor Hadadezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.
6 Och lade folk till Damascon i Syria. Alltså vardt Syria David underdånig, så att de förde skänker till honom; ty Herren halp David, ehvart han drog.
Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus: and the Syrians became servants to David, [and] brought gifts. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
7 Och David tog de gyldene sköldar, som HadadEsers tjenare tillhört hade, och förde dem till Jerusalem.
And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 Men ifrå Bethah, och Berothai, HadadEsers städer, tog Konung David ganska mycken koppar.
And from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took very much brass.
9 Då Thoi, Konungen i Hemath, hörde att David hade slagit alla HadadEsers magt,
When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,
10 Sände han Joram sin son till David, till att helsa honom vänliga, och välsigna honom, att han hade stridt med HadadEser, och slagit honom; ty Thoi hade örlig med HadadEser, och han hade med sig silfver, och gyldene, och koppartyg;
Then Toi sent Joram his son to king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him: (for Hadadezer had wars with Toi) and [Joram] brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass:
11 Hvilka Konung David ock helgade Herranom, samt med det silfver och guld, som han helgade af allom Hedningom, dem han under sig tvingade,
Which also king David dedicated to the LORD, with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all nations which he subdued;
12 Af Syria, af Moab, af Ammons barn, af de Philisteer, af Amalek, af HadadEsers rof, Rehobs sons, Konungens i Zoba.
Of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 Och gjorde David sig ett namn, då han igenkom och slog de Syrer i saltdalenom, adertontusend.
And David made [him] a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of Salt, [being] eighteen thousand [men].
14 Och han lade folk i hela Edomea; och hela Edom var David undergifven; ty Herren halp David, ehvart han drog.
And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom he put garrisons, and all they of Edom became David's servants. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
15 Alltså vardt David Konung öfver hela Israel; och han skaffade rätt och rättviso allo folkena.
And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice to all his people.
16 Joab, ZeruJa son, var öfver hären; men Josaphat, Ahiluds son, var canceller.
And Joab the son of Zeruiah [was] over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud [was] recorder;
17 Zadok, Ahitobs son, och Ahimelech, AbJathars son, voro Prester; Seraja var skrifvare;
And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, [were] the priests: and Seraiah [was] the scribe;
18 Benaja, Jojada son, var öfver Crethi och Plethi; och Davids söner voro Prester.
And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada [was over] both the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were chief rulers.
