1Some time later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took Gath and its villages from the hand of the Philistines.
1Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ ταῦτα, καὶ ἐπάταξε Δαυὶδ τοὺς ἀλλοφύλους καὶ ἐτροπώσατο αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἔλαβε τὴν Γὲθ καὶ τὰς κώμας αὐτῆς ἐκ χειρὸς ἀλλοφύλων.
2David also defeated the Moabites, and they became subject to David and brought him tribute.
2Καὶ ἐπάταξε τὴν Μωὰβ, καὶ ἦσαν Μωὰβ παῖδες τῷ Δαυὶδ φέροντες δῶρα·
3As far as Hamath, David also defeated King Hadadezer of Zobah, who had marched out to establish his dominion along the Euphrates River.
3Καὶ ἐπάταξε Δαυὶδ τὸν Ἀδρααζὰρ βασιλέα Σουβὰ Ἠμάθ, πορευομένου αὐτοῦ ἐπιστῆσαι χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ ποταμὸν Εὐφράτην·
4David 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.
4Καὶ προκατελάβετο Δαυὶδ αὐτῶν χίλια ἅρματα καὶ ἑπτὰ χιλιάδας ἵππων καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδας ἀνδρῶν πεζῶν· καὶ παρέλυσεν Δαυεὶδ πάντα τὰ ἅρματα, καὶ ὑπελίπετο ἐξ αὐτῶν ἑκατὸν ἅρματα.
5When the Arameans of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand men.
5Καὶ ἦλθεν Σύρος ἐκ Δαμασκοῦ βοηθῆσαι Ἀδρααζὰρ βασιλεῖ Σουβά, καὶ ἐπάταξε Δαυὶδ ἐν τῷ Σύρῳ εἴκοσι καὶ δύο χιλιάδας ἀνδρῶν.
6Then 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.
6Καὶ ἔθετο Δαυὶδ φρουρὰν ἐν Συρίᾳ τῇ κατὰ Δαμασκὸν, καὶ ἦσαν τῷ Δαυεὶδ εἰς παῖδας φέροντας δῶρα· καὶ ἔσωσε Κύριος Δαυίδ ἐν πᾶσιν οἷς ἐπορεύετο.
7And David took the gold shields that belonged to the officers of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem.
7Καὶ ἔλαβεν Δαυεὶδ τοὺς κλοιοὺς τοὺς χρυσοῦς οἳ ἦσαν ἐπὶ τοὺς παῖδας Ἁδραάζαρ, καὶ ἤνεγκεν αὐτοὺς εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ.
8And from Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a large amount of bronze, with which Solomon made the bronze Sea, the pillars, and various bronze articles.
8Καὶ ἐκ τῆς Μαγαβὲθ καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἐκλεκτῶν πόλεων τῶν Ἀδρααζὰρ ἔλαβε Δαυὶδ χαλκὸν πολὺν σφόδρα· ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐποίησε Σαλωμὼν τὴν θάλασσαν τὴν χαλκῆν, καὶ τοὺς στύλους καὶ τὰ σκεύη τὰ χαλκᾶ.
9When King Tou of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,
9καὶ ἤκουσε Θωὰ βασιλεὺς Ἠμὰθ, ὅτι ἐπάταξε Δαυὶδ τὴν πᾶσαν δύναμιν Ἀδρααζὰρ βασιλέως Σουβά·
10he sent his son Hadoram to greet King David and bless him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer, who had been at war with Tou. Hadoram brought all kinds of articles of gold and silver and bronze,
10Καὶ ἀπέστειλεν τὸν Ἀδουρὰμ υἱὸν αὐτοῦ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα Δαυὶδ τοῦ ἐρωτῆσαι αὐτὸν τὰ εἰς εἰρήνην, καὶ του εὐλογῆσαι αὐτὸν ὑπὲρ οὗ ἐπολέμησε τὸν Ἁδρααζαρ, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτόν, ὅτι ἀνὴρ πολέμιος Θῶα ἦν τῷ Ἁδραάζαρ· καὶ πάντα τὰ σκεύη τὰ χρυσᾶ, καὶ τὰ ἀργυρᾶ,
11and King David dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold he had carried off from all these nations—from Edom and Moab, and from the Ammonites, Philistines, and Amalekites.
11Καὶ τὰ χαλκᾶ, καὶ ταῦτα ἡγίασεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυὶδ τῷ κυρίῳ, μετὰ τοῦ ἀργυρίου καὶ τοῦ χρυσίου οὗ ἔλαβεν ἐκ πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν, ἐξ Ἰδουμαίας, καὶ Μωὰβ, καὶ ἐξ υἱῶν Ἀμμὼν, καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἀλλοφύλων, καὶ ἐξ Ἀμαλήκ.
12Moreover, Abishai son of Zeruiah struck down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
12Καὶ Ἀβεσὰ υἱὸς Σαρουίας ἐπάταξε τὴν Ἰδουμαίαν ἐν κοιλάδι τῶν ἁλῶν, ὀκτὼκαὶδεκα χιλιάδας.
13He placed garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
13Καὶ ἔθετο ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι φρουρὰς, καὶ ἦσαν πάντες οἱ Ἰδουμαῖοι παῖδες Δαυίδ· καὶ ἔσωζε Κύριος τὸν Δανὶδ ἐν πᾶσιν οἷς ἐπορεύετο.
14Thus David reigned over all Israel and administered justice and righteousness for all his people:
14Καὶ ἐβασίλευσε Δαυὶδ ἐπὶ πάντα Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ ἦν ποιῶν κρίμα καὶ δικαιοσύνην τῷ παντὶ λαῷ αὐτοῦ.
15Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;
15Καὶ Ἰωὰβ υἱὸς Σαρουίας ἐπὶ τῆς στρατιᾶς, καὶ Ἰωσαφὰτ υἱὸς Ἀχιλοὺδ ὁ ὑπομνηματογράφος,
16Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests; Shavsha was the scribe;
16καὶ Σαδὼκ υἱὸς Ἀχειτὼβ καὶ Αχειμέλεχ υἱὸς Ἀβιάθαρ οἱ ἱερεῖς, καὶ Σουσὰ γραμματεύς,
17Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and Pelethites; and David’s sons were chief officials at the king’s side.
17καὶ Βαναίας υἱὸς Ἰωδαὲ ἐπὶ τοῦ Χερεθὶ καὶ ἐπὶ τοῦ Φελεθί. καὶ υἱοὶ Δαυὶδ οἱ πρῶτοι διάδοχοι τοῦ βασιλέως.
