2 Samuel 8

1 And it came to pass, after this, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, —and David took the bridle of the metropolis, out of the hand of the Philistines.

Und es begab sich danach, daß David die Philister schlug und schwächte sie; und nahm den Dienstzaum von der Philister Hand.

2 And he smote Moab, and measured them with the line casting, them down to the ground, and be measured with two lines to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive, —so the Moabites became David’s, as servants, bringing gifts.

Er schlug auch die Moabiter also zu Boden, daß er zwei Teile zum Tode brachte und ein Teil beim Leben ließ. Also wurden die Moabiter David untertänig, daß sie ihm Geschenke zutrugen.

3 And David smote Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, —when he went to lay his hand on the River Euphrates.

David schlug auch Hadadeser, den Sohn Rehobs, König zu Zoba, da er hinzog, seine Macht wieder zu holen an dem Wasser Phrath.

4 And David captured from him, a thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, —and David destroyed all the chariots, but reserved of them, a hundred chariots.

Und David fing aus ihnen tausend und siebenhundert Reiter und zwanzigtausend Fußvolks; und verlähmte alle Wagen und behielt übrig hundert Wagen.

5 And, when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer, king of Zobah, David smote of the Syrians, twenty-two thousand men.

Es kamen aber die Syrer von Damaskus, zu helfen Hadadeser, dem Könige zu Zoba; und David schlug der Syrer zweiundzwanzigtausend Mann

6 Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus, and the Syrians became David’s, as servants bringing gifts, —and so Yahweh gave victory unto David, whithersoever he went.

und legte Volk gen Damaskus in Syrien. Also ward Syrien David untertänig, daß sie ihm Geschenke zutrugen. Denn der HERR half David, wo er hinzog.

7 And David took the shields of gold which had come to the servants of Hadadezer, —and brought them to Jerusalem;

Und David nahm die güldenen Schilde, die Hadadesers Knechten waren, und brachte sie gen Jerusalem.

8 also, from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, did King David take bronze, exceeding much.

Aber von Betah und Berothai, den Städten Hadadesers, nahm der König David fast viel Erzes.

9 And, when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the forces of Hadadezer,

Da aber Thoi, der König zu Hemath, hörete, daß David hatte alle Macht des Hadadeser geschlagen,

10 then Tou sent Hadoram his son unto King David, to ask after his welfare, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and had smitten him, for Hadadezer had had wars with Tou, —and, in his hand, were vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze.

sandte er Joram, seinen Sohn, zu David, ihn freundlich zu grüßen und ihn zu segnen, daß er wider Hadadeser gestritten und ihn geschlagen hatte (denn Thoi hatte einen Streit mit Hadadeser), und er hatte mit sich silberne, güldene und eherne Kleinode,

11 Them also, did King David hallow unto Yahweh, —with the silver and the gold which he had hallowed from all the nations which he had subdued:

welche der König David auch dem HERRN heiligte samt dem Silber und Golde, das er dem HERRN heiligte von allen Heiden, die er unter sich brachte:

12 from Syria, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek, —and from the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

von Syrien, von Moab, von den Kindern Ammon, von den Philistern, von Amalek, vom Raube Hadadesers, des Sohns Rehobs, Königs zu Zoba.

13 And David made a name, when he returned from his smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, —eighteen thousand.

Auch machte ihm David einen Namen, da er wiederkam und die Syrer schlug im Salztal, achtzehntausend.

14 And he put, in Edom, garrisons, throughout all Edom, put be garrisons, and so it was that all Edom became servants unto David, —and Yahweh gave victory unto David, whithersoever he went.

Und er legte Volk in ganz Edomäa, und ganz Edom war David unterworfen; denn der HERR half David, wo er hinzog.

15 And David reigned over all Israel, —and so it was that David used to execute justice and righteousness for all his people;

Also ward David König über ganz Israel, und er schaffte Recht und Gerechtigkeit allem Volk.

16 and, Joab, son of Zeruiah, was over the army, —and, Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, was remembrancer.

Joab, der Sohn Zerujas, war über das Heer; Josaphat aber, der Sohn Ahiluds, war Kanzler;

17 And, Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Abimelech, son of Abiathar, were priests, —and, Seraiah, was scribe;

Zadok, der Sohn Ahitobs, und Ahimelech, der Sohn Abjathars, waren Priester; Seraja war Schreiber;

18 and, Benaiah, son of Jehoiadah, was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites, —and, the sons of David, became, chief rulers.

Benaja, der Sohn Jojodas, war über die Krethi und Plethi; und die Söhne Davids waren Priester.
