2 Samuel 8
1 Beberapa waktu kemudian Raja Daud menyerang orang Filistin lagi. Ia mengalahkan mereka dan merebut tanah mereka.
After this it happened that David struck the Philistines, and subdued them, and David took the bridle of Ammah out of the hand of the Philistines.
2 Daud juga mengalahkan orang Moab. Disuruhnya mereka berbaring di tanah, lalu dibunuhnya dua orang di antara tiap tiga orang. Jadi, orang Moab takluk kepada Daud dan membayar upeti kepadanya.
He struck Moab, and measured them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground; and he measured two lines to put to death, and one full line to keep alive. The Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.
3 Selanjutnya Daud mengalahkan Raja Hadadezer anak Rehob yang memerintah di Zoba, yaitu sebuah kerajaan dekat Damsyik. Pada waktu itu Hadadezer sedang dalam perjalanan hendak memulihkan kekuasaannya atas wilayah di dekat hulu Sungai Efrat.
David struck also Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River.
4 Daud menawan 1.700 orang tentara berkuda dan 20.000 orang tentara berjalan kaki. Ia melumpuhkan semua kuda, kecuali sebagian, cukup untuk seratus kereta perang.
And David took from him a thousand of his chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David hamstrung all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for one hundred chariots.
5 Orang Siria dari Damsyik mengirim tentara untuk menolong Raja Hadadezer. Tetapi Daud mengalahkan mereka dan menewaskan 22.000 orang dari mereka.
When the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck of the Arameans two and twenty thousand men.
6 Kemudian Daud mendirikan perkemahan-perkemahan militer dalam wilayah mereka, dan mereka takluk serta membayar upeti kepadanya. TUHAN memberikan kemenangan kepada Daud di mana pun ia berperang.
Then David put garrisons in Aram of Damascus; and the Arameans became servants to David, and brought tribute. Jehovah gave victory to David wherever he went.
7 Tameng-tameng emas yang dipakai oleh tentara Hadadezer dirampas oleh Daud dan dibawa ke Yerusalem.
And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem, which, later on, were also taken by Shishak king of Egypt in the days of Rehoboam son of Solomon when he went up to Jerusalem.
8 Selain itu Daud juga mengambil perunggu banyak sekali dari Betah dan Berotai, kota-kota yang dahulu dikuasai oleh Hadadezer.
From Tebah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took a very great amount of bronze.
9 Raja Tou dari Hamat mendengar bahwa Daud telah mengalahkan seluruh tentara Hadadezer.
When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer,
10 Maka ia mengutus Yoram putranya untuk menyampaikan salam kepada Raja Daud dan mengucapkan selamat atas kemenangannya itu, sebab Hadadezer sudah sering berperang dengan Tou. Yoram datang kepada Daud dengan membawa banyak hadiah dari emas, perak dan perunggu.
then Toi sent Hadoram his son to king David, to greet him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And he brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze.
11 Raja Daud mempersembahkan semua hadiah itu kepada TUHAN untuk dipergunakan dalam upacara ibadat. Demikian juga dilakukannya dengan barang-barang emas dan perak yang telah dirampasnya dari Hadadezer dan bangsa-bangsa yang dikalahkannya, yaitu bangsa Edom, Moab, Amon, Filistin dan Amalek.
King David also dedicated these to Jehovah, with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued;
of Edom, and of Moab, and of the people of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 Nama Daud menjadi lebih termasyhur lagi ketika ia kembali setelah menewaskan 18.000 orang Edom di Lembah Asin.
And David made a name for himself when he returned from defeating the Arameans. And Abishai son of Zeruiah defeated the Edomites in the Valley of Salt--eighteen thousand.
14 Ia mendirikan perkemahan-perkemahan militer di seluruh Edom, dan orang-orang Edom itu takluk kepadanya. TUHAN memberikan kemenangan kepada Daud di mana pun ia berperang.
And he put a garrison in Edom, and all the Edomites became servants to David. Jehovah gave victory to David wherever he went.
15 Demikianlah Daud memerintah seluruh Israel dan menjaga agar rakyatnya selalu diperlakukan dengan adil dan baik.
David reigned over all Israel; and David executed justice and righteousness to all his people.
16 Inilah pejabat-pejabat tinggi yang diangkat oleh Daud: Panglima angkatan bersenjata: Yoab anak Zeruya; Sekretaris istana: Yosafat anak Ahilud; Imam-imam: Zadok anak Ahitub, dan Ahimelekh anak Abyatar; Sekretaris negara: Seraya
Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
and Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were priests; and Shisha was scribe;
18 Kepala pengawal pribadi raja: Benaya anak Yoyada; Imam-imam di istana: putra-putra Daud.
and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were chief ministers.
