1Some time later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took Metheg-ammah from the hand of the Philistines.
1Factum est autem post hæc, percussit David Philisthiim, et humiliavit eos, et tulit David frenum tributi de manu Philisthiim.
2David also defeated the Moabites, made them lie down on the ground, and measured them off with a cord. He measured off with two lengths those to be put to death, and with one length those to be spared. So the Moabites became subject to David and brought him tribute.
2Et percussit Moab, et mensus est eos funiculo, coæquans terræ: mensus est autem duos funiculos, unum ad occidendum, et unum ad vivificandum: factusque est Moab David serviens sub tributo.
3David also defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, who had marched out to restore his dominion along the Euphrates River.
3Et percussit David Adarezer filium Rohob regem Soba, quando profectus est ut dominaretur super flumen Euphraten.
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.
4Et captis David ex parte ejus mille septingentis equitibus, et viginti millibus peditum, subnervavit omnes jugales curruum: dereliquit autem ex eis centum currus.
5When the Arameans of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand men.
5Venit quoque Syria Damasci, ut præsidium ferret Adarezer regi Soba: et percussit David de Syria viginti duo millia virorum.
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.
6Et posuit David præsidium in Syria Damasci: factaque est Syria David serviens sub tributo: servavitque Dominus David in omnibus ad quæcumque profectus est.
7And David took the gold shields that belonged to the officers of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem.
7Et tulit David arma aurea quæ habebant servi Adarezer, et detulit ea in Jerusalem.
8And from Betah and Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a large amount of bronze.
8Et de Bete et de Beroth, civitatibus Adarezer, tulit rex David æs multum nimis.
9When King Toi of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer,
9Audivit autem Thou rex Emath quod percussisset David omne robur Adarezer,
10he sent his son Joram to greet King David and bless him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer, who had been at war with Toi. Joram brought with him articles of silver and gold and bronze,
10et misit Thou Joram filium suum ad regem David, ut salutaret eum congratulans, et gratias ageret: eo quod expugnasset Adarezer, et percussisset eum. Hostis quippe erat Thou Adarezer, et in manu ejus erant vasa aurea, et vasa argentea, et vasa ærea:
11and King David dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold he had dedicated from all the nations he had subdued—
11quæ et ipsa sanctificavit rex David Domino cum argento et auro quæ sanctificaverat de universis gentibus quas subegerat,
12from Edom and Moab, from the Ammonites and Philistines and Amalekites, and from the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
12de Syria, et Moab, et filiis Ammon, et Philisthiim, et Amalec, et de manubiis Adarezer filii Rohob regis Soba.
13And David made a name for himself when he returned from striking down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
13Fecit quoque sibi David nomen cum reverteretur capta Syria in valle Salinarum, cæsis decem et octo millibus:
14He placed garrisons throughout Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.
14et posuit in Idumæa custodes, statuitque præsidium: et facta est universa Idumæa serviens David, et servavit Dominus David in omnibus ad quæcumque profectus est.
15Thus David reigned over all Israel and administered justice and righteousness for all his people:
15Et regnavit David super omnem Israël: faciebat quoque David judicium et justitiam omni populo suo.
16Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;
16Joab autem filius Sarviæ erat super exercitum: porro Josaphat filius Ahilud erat a commentariis:
17Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests; Seraiah was the scribe;
17et Sadoc filius Achitob, et Achimelech filius Abiathar, erant sacerdotes: et Saraias, scriba:
18Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and Pelethites; and David’s sons were priestly leaders.
18Banaias autem filius Jojadæ super Cerethi et Phelethi: filii autem David sacerdotes erant.
