1 Дупэ ачея, Давид а бэтут пе филистень ши й-а смерит ши а луат дин мына филистенилор кырмуиря капиталей лор.
Some time later, David’s army attacked the Philistia [army] and defeated them. They took control over the entire Philistia area.
2 А бэтут пе моабиць ши й-а мэсурат ку о фрынгие, пунынду-й сэ се кулче ла пэмынт; а мэсурат доуэ фрынгий ка сэ-й омоаре ши о фрынгие плинэ ка сэ-й ласе вий. Ши моабиций ау фост супушь луй Давид ши й-ау плэтит ун бир.
David’s army also defeated the army of the Moab people-group. David forced their soldiers to lie down on the ground [close to each other]. His men killed two out of every three of them. The [other] Moab people [were forced to] accept David as their ruler, and they were forced to give to him [every year the] payment/tax [that he demanded].
3 Давид а бэтут пе Хададезер, фиул луй Рехоб, ымпэратул дин Цоба, кынд с-а дус сэ-шь ашезе ярэшь стэпыниря песте рыул Еуфрат.

When [the army of] Syria came from Damascus [city] to help King Hadadezer’s [army], David’s soldiers killed 22,000 of them.
6 Давид а пус стражэ ын Сирия Дамаскулуй. Ши сириений ау фост супушь луй Давид ши й-ау плэтит ун бир. Домнул окротя пе Давид орьунде се дучя.
Then David stationed (groups of his soldiers/army camps) in their area, and the people of Syria were forced to accept David as their ruler, and to give to David’s government [every year] the payment/tax that he demanded. And Yahweh enabled David’s [army] to win victories wherever they went.
7 Ши Давид а луат скутуриле де аур пе каре ле авяу служиторий луй Хададезер ши ле-а адус ла Иерусалим.
David’s soldiers took the gold shields that were carried by Hadadezer’s officials, and brought them to Jerusalem.

When Toi, the king of the Hamath [city in Syria], heard that David’s [army] had defeated the entire army of King Hadadezer,

he sent his son Joram to greet King David and to (congratulate him/say that he was happy) about his army defeating Hadadezer’s army, which Toi’s [army] had fought many times. Joram brought to David many items/gifts made from gold, silver, and bronze.
11 Ымпэратул Давид ле-а ынкинат Домнулуй, кум ынкинасе ши арӂинтул ши аурул луате де ла тоате нямуриле пе каре ле бируисе,
King David dedicated all those items to Yahweh. He also dedicated the silver and gold which his army had taken from the nations that they had conquered.
