1 Chronicles 18

1 Some time later, David defeated the Philistines, subdued them, and took Gath and its villages from the hand of the Philistines.

1 后来，大卫打败并征服了非利士人，夺取了迦特及其周围的村庄。

2 David also defeated the Moabites, and they became subject to David and brought him tribute.

2 他又打败了摩押人，使他们称臣、进贡。

3 As far as Hamath, David also defeated King Hadadezer of Zobah, who had marched out to establish his dominion along the Euphrates River.

3 琐巴王哈大底谢出来，要巩固他在幼发拉底河一带的势力，大卫打败了他，一直攻到哈马，

4 David captured from him a thousand chariots, seven thousand charioteers, and twenty thousand foot soldiers, and he hamstrung all the horses except a hundred he kept for the chariots.

4 俘获一千辆战车、七千骑兵、两万步兵，砍断拉战车的马匹的蹄筋，只留下够拉一百辆战车的马匹。

5 When the Arameans of Damascus came to help King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand of their men.

5 大马士革的亚兰人前来支援琐巴王哈大底谢，大卫杀了他们两万二千人，

6 Then he placed garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Arameans became subject to David and brought him tribute. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.

6 还在大马士革的亚兰境内驻军，亚兰人臣服于大卫，向他进贡。耶和华使大卫无往而不胜。

7 And David took the gold shields that belonged to the officers of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem.

7 大卫夺走哈大底谢侍从的金盾牌，带回耶路撒冷，

8 And from Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took a large amount of bronze, with which Solomon made the bronze Sea, the pillars, and various bronze articles.

8 又从哈大底谢统治的提巴和均两座城中夺走大量的铜。后来所罗门用这些铜制造铜海、铜柱及各种铜器。

9 When King Tou of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,

9 哈马王陀乌听说大卫打败琐巴王哈大底谢全军，

10 he sent his son Hadoram to greet King David and bless him for fighting and defeating Hadadezer, who had been at war with Tou. Hadoram brought all kinds of articles of gold and silver and bronze,

10 就派儿子哈多兰带着许多金银铜器去朝见大卫王，向他请安，祝贺他打败了哈大底谢。因为陀乌常常和哈大底谢交战。

11 and King David dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold he had carried off from all these nations—from Edom and Moab, and from the Ammonites, Philistines, and Amalekites.

11 于是，大卫王把这些器皿和他从以东、摩押、亚扪、非利士和亚玛力各国夺来的金银都分别出来，奉献给耶和华。

12 Moreover, Abishai son of Zeruiah struck down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.

12 洗鲁雅的儿子亚比筛在盐谷杀了一万八千名以东人。

13 He placed garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David. So the LORD made David victorious wherever he went.

13 大卫在以东驻军，以东人都臣服于他。耶和华使他无往而不胜。

14 Thus David reigned over all Israel and administered justice and righteousness for all his people:

14 大卫治理全以色列，对百姓秉公行义。

15 Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;

15 那时，洗鲁雅的儿子约押做元帅；亚希律的儿子约沙法做史官；

16 Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests; Shavsha was the scribe;

16 亚希突的儿子撒督和亚比亚他的儿子亚希米勒做祭司长；沙威沙做书记；

17 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and Pelethites; and David’s sons were chief officials at the king’s side.

17 耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅统管基利提人和比利提人。大卫王的众子都在他左右做首领。
