١ 1 وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَذَلَّلَهُمْ، وَأَخَذَ جَتَّ وَقُرَاهَا مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ.

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

٢ 2 وَضَرَبَ مُوآبَ، فَصَارَ ٱلْمُوآبِيُّونَ عَبِيدًا لِدَاوُدَ يُقَدِّمُونَ هَدَايَا.

And he smote Moab, and the Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.

٣ 3 وَضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ مَلِكَ صُوبَةَ فِي حَمَاةَ حِينَ ذَهَبَ لِيُقِيمَ سُلْطَتَهُ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ،

And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah to Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Euphrates.

٤ 4 وَأَخَذَ دَاوُدُ مِنْهُ أَلْفَ مَرْكَبَةٍ وَسَبْعَةَ آلَافِ فَارِسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ رَاجِلٍ، وَعَرْقَبَ دَاوُدُ كُلَّ خَيْلِ ٱلْمَرْكَبَاتِ وَأَبْقَى مِنْهَا مِئَةَ مَرْكَبَةٍ.

And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen. And David hocked all the chariot horses, but reserved from them for a hundred chariots.

٥ 5 فَجَاءَ أَرَامُ دِمَشْقَ لِنَجْدَةِ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ مَلِكِ صُوبَةَ، فَضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ أَرَامَ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ.

And when the Syrians of Damascus came to aid Hadarezer king of Zobah, David smote of the Syrians twenty-two thousand men.

٦ 6 وَجَعَلَ دَاوُدُ مُحَافِظِينَ فِي أَرَامَ دِمَشْقَ، وَصَارَ ٱلْأَرَامِيُّونَ لِدَاوُدَ عَبِيدًا يُقَدِّمُونَ هَدَايَا. وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ يُخَلِّصُ دَاوُدَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهَ.

Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus. And the Syrians became servants to David, and brought tribute. And Jehovah gave victory to David wherever he went.

٧ 7 وَأَخَذَ دَاوُدُ أَتْرَاسَ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ عَلَى عَبِيدِ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ وَأَتَى بِهَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ.

And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

٨ 8 وَمِنْ طَبْحَةَ وَخُونَ مَدِينَتَيْ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ أَخَذَ دَاوُدُ نُحَاسًا كَثِيرًا جِدًّا صَنَعَ مِنْهُ سُلَيْمَانُ بَحْرَ ٱلنُّحَاسِ وَٱلْأَعْمِدَةَ وَآنِيَةَ ٱلنُّحَاسِ.

And from Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadarezer, David took very much brass, with which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

٩ 9 وَسَمِعَ تُوعُو مَلِكُ حَمَاةَ أَنَّ دَاوُدَ قَدْ ضَرَبَ كُلَّ جَيْشِ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ مَلِكِ صُوبَةَ،

And when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the army of Hadarezer king of Zobah,

١٠ 10 فَأَرْسَلَ هَدُورَامَ ٱبْنَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ لِيَسْأَلَ عَنْ سَلَامَتِهِ وَيُبَارِكَهُ، لِأَنَّهُ حَارَبَ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ وَضَرَبَهُ. لِأَنَّ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ كَانَتْ لَهُ حُرُوبٌ مَعَ تُوعُوَ. وَبِيَدِهِ جَمِيعُ آنِيَةِ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلنُّحَاسِ.

he sent Hadoram his son to king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadarezer and smitten him (for Hadarezer had wars with Tou), and he had with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.

١١ 11 هَذِهِ أَيْضًا قَدَّسَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ لِلرَّبِّ مَعَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي أَخَذَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ: مِنْ أَدُومَ وَمِنْ مُوآبَ وَمِنْ بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَمِنَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَمِنْ عَمَالِيقَ.

These also king David dedicated to Jehovah, with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations: from Edom, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.

١٢ 12 وَأَبْشَايُ ٱبْنُ صَرُويَةَ ضَرَبَ مِنْ أَدُومَ فِي وَادِي ٱلْمِلْحِ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ أَلْفًا.

Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah smote eighteen thousand of the Edomites in the Valley of Salt.

١٣ 13 وَجَعَلَ فِي أَدُومَ مُحَافِظِينَ، فَصَارَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأَدُومِيِّينَ عَبِيدًا لِدَاوُدَ. وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ يُخَلِّصُ دَاوُدَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهَ.

And he put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became servants to David. And Jehovah gave victory to David wherever he went.

١٤ 14 وَمَلَكَ دَاوُدُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَانَ يُجْرِي قَضَاءً وَعَدْلًا لِكُلِّ شَعْبِهِ.

And David reigned over all Israel, and he executed justice and righteousness to all his people.

١٥ 15 وَكَانَ يُوآبُ ٱبْنُ صَرُويَةَ عَلَى ٱلْجَيْشِ، وَيَهُوشَافَاطُ بْنُ أَخِيلُودَ مُسَجِّلًا،

And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army, and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder,

١٦ 16 وَصَادُوقُ بْنُ أَخِيطُوبَ وَأَبِيمَالِكُ بْنُ أَبِيَاثَارَ كَاهِنَيْنِ، وَشَوْشَا كَاتِبًا،

and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, were priests, and Shavsha was scribe,

١٧ 17 وَبَنَايَا بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ عَلَى ٱلْجَّلَادِينَ وَٱلسُّعَاةِ، وَبَنُو دَاوُدَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and the sons of David were chief about the king.
