1 Chronicles 18

1 And it came to pass after this, that David defeated the Philistines, and humbled them, and took away Geth, and her daughters out of the hands of the Philistines,

Ei tid etter dette vann David yverpå filistarane og lagde deim under seg, og han tok då Gat og dei bygderne som låg ikring or henderne på filistarane.

2 And he defeated Moab, and the Moabites were made David’s servants, and brought him gifts.

Han vann og yver moabitar, og so vart dei tenarar åt David og lagde skatt til honom.

3 At that time David defeated also Adarezer king of Soba of the land of Hemath, when he went to extend his dominions as far as the river Euphrates.

Like eins vann David på Hadarezer, kongen i Soba, ved Hamat, då han hadde fare av stad og skulde tryggja magti si ved elvi Frat.

4 And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and he houghed all the chariot horses, only a hundred chariots, which he reserved for himself.

Og David tok ifrå honom eit tusund vognhestar og sju tusund hestfolk og tjuge tusund mann fotfolk. Og David let skjera av hasarne på alle vognhestarne og sparde berre eit hundrad hestar.

5 And the Syrians of Damascus came also to help Adarezer king of Soba: and David slew of them likewise two and twenty thousand men.

Og då syrarane frå Damaskus kom og skulde hjelpa Hadarezer, kongen i Soba, slo David tvo og tjuge tusund mann av syrarane.

6 And he put a garrison in Damascus, that Syria also should serve him, and bring gifts. And the Lord assisted him in all things to which he went.

Og David sette inn hervakter millom syrarane i Damaskus, og syrarane vart tenarar åt David og lagde skatt til honom. Soleis gav Herren David siger kvar helst han drog fram.

7 And David took the golden quivers which the servants of Adarezer had, and he brought them to Jerusalem.

Og David tok dei gullskjoldarne som tenarane hans Hadarezer hadde bore, og førde deim til Jerusalem.

8 Likewise out of Thebath and Chun, cities of Adarezer, he brought very much brass, of which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

Og frå Tibhat og Kun, byarne hans Hadarezer, tok David kopar i stor mengd; av det gjorde Salomo koparhavet, sulorne og koparkjeraldi.

9 Now when Thou king of Hemath heard that David had defeated all the army of Adarezer king of Soba,

Då so To’u, kongen i Hamat, høyrde at David hadde slege heile heren hans Hadarezer, kongen i Soba,

10 He sent Adoram his son to king David, to desire peace of him, and to congratulate him that he had defeated and overthrown Adarezer: for Thou was an enemy to Adarezer.

sende han son sin, Hadoram, til kong David, at han skulde helsa på honom og ynskja honom til lukke med krigen mot Hadarezer og med sigeren yver kongen; for Hadarezer hadde jamt havt ufred med To’u. Han sende og alle slag kjerald av gull, sylv og kopar.

11 And all the vessels of gold, and silver, and brass king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and gold which he had taken from all the nations, as well from Edom, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, as from the Philistines, and from Amalec.

Deim og vigde kong David til Herren, sameleis som det med det sylvet og gullet han hadde ført heim frå alle andre folk: frå edomitarne, moabiterne, Ammons-sønerne, filistarane og amalekitarne.

12 And Abisai the son of Sarvia slew of the Edomites in the vale of the saltpits, eighteen thousand:

Og Absai Serujason som slo edomitarne i Saltdalen, attan tusund mann.

13 And he put a garrison in Edom, that Edom should serve David: and the Lord preserved David in all things to which he went.

So sette han vakt i Edom, og alle edomitarne vart tenarar åt David. Soleis gav Herren David siger kvar helst han for fram.

14 So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.

David var no konge yver heile Israel, og han skipa lov og rett åt heile sitt folk.

15 And Joab the son of Sarvia was over the army, and Josaphat the son of Ahilud recorder.

Joab Serujason var øvste herhovding, og Josafat Ahiludsson var kanslar.

16 And Sadoc the son of Achitob, and Achimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests: and Susa, scribe.

Sadok Ahitubsson og Abimelek Abjatarsson var prestar og Savsa riksskrivar,

17 And Banaias the son of Joiada was over the bands of the Cerethi, and the Phelethi: and the sons of David were chief about the king.

Benaja Jojadason var hovding yver livvakti, men Davids søner var dei fyrste ved sida åt kongen.
