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 وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَذَلَّلَهُمْ، وَأَخَذَ جَتَّ وَقُرَاهَا مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ.

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

2 وَضَرَبَ مُوآبَ، فَصَارَ ٱلْمُوآبِيُّونَ عَبِيدًا لِدَاوُدَ يُقَدِّمُونَ هَدَايَا.

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 وَضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ مَلِكَ صُوبَةَ فِي حَمَاةَ حِينَ ذَهَبَ لِيُقِيمَ سُلْطَتَهُ عِنْدَ نَهْرِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ،

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 وَأَخَذَ دَاوُدُ مِنْهُ أَلْفَ مَرْكَبَةٍ وَسَبْعَةَ آلَافِ فَارِسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ رَاجِلٍ، وَعَرْقَبَ دَاوُدُ كُلَّ خَيْلِ ٱلْمَرْكَبَاتِ وَأَبْقَى مِنْهَا مِئَةَ مَرْكَبَةٍ.

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

5 فَجَاءَ أَرَامُ دِمَشْقَ لِنَجْدَةِ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ مَلِكِ صُوبَةَ، فَضَرَبَ دَاوُدُ مِنْ أَرَامَ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفَ رَجُلٍ.

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 وَجَعَلَ دَاوُدُ مُحَافِظِينَ فِي أَرَامَ دِمَشْقَ، وَصَارَ ٱلْأَرَامِيُّونَ لِدَاوُدَ عَبِيدًا يُقَدِّمُونَ هَدَايَا. وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ يُخَلِّصُ دَاوُدَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهَ.

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

7 وَأَخَذَ دَاوُدُ أَتْرَاسَ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّتِي كَانَتْ عَلَى عَبِيدِ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ وَأَتَى بِهَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ.

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 وَمِنْ طَبْحَةَ وَخُونَ مَدِينَتَيْ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ أَخَذَ دَاوُدُ نُحَاسًا كَثِيرًا جِدًّا صَنَعَ مِنْهُ سُلَيْمَانُ بَحْرَ ٱلنُّحَاسِ وَٱلْأَعْمِدَةَ وَآنِيَةَ ٱلنُّحَاسِ.

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

9 وَسَمِعَ تُوعُو مَلِكُ حَمَاةَ أَنَّ دَاوُدَ قَدْ ضَرَبَ كُلَّ جَيْشِ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ مَلِكِ صُوبَةَ،

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 فَأَرْسَلَ هَدُورَامَ ٱبْنَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ لِيَسْأَلَ عَنْ سَلَامَتِهِ وَيُبَارِكَهُ، لِأَنَّهُ حَارَبَ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ وَضَرَبَهُ. لِأَنَّ هَدَرَ عَزَرَ كَانَتْ لَهُ حُرُوبٌ مَعَ تُوعُوَ. وَبِيَدِهِ جَمِيعُ آنِيَةِ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلنُّحَاسِ.

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 هَذِهِ أَيْضًا قَدَّسَهَا ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ لِلرَّبِّ مَعَ ٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي أَخَذَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ ٱلْأُمَمِ: مِنْ أَدُومَ وَمِنْ مُوآبَ وَمِنْ بَنِي عَمُّونَ وَمِنَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ وَمِنْ عَمَالِيقَ.

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

12 وَأَبْشَايُ ٱبْنُ صَرُويَةَ ضَرَبَ مِنْ أَدُومَ فِي وَادِي ٱلْمِلْحِ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ أَلْفًا.

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

13 وَجَعَلَ فِي أَدُومَ مُحَافِظِينَ، فَصَارَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْأَدُومِيِّينَ عَبِيدًا لِدَاوُدَ. وَكَانَ ٱلرَّبُّ يُخَلِّصُ دَاوُدَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهَ.

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

14 وَمَلَكَ دَاوُدُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَكَانَ يُجْرِي قَضَاءً وَعَدْلًا لِكُلِّ شَعْبِهِ.

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

15 وَكَانَ يُوآبُ ٱبْنُ صَرُويَةَ عَلَى ٱلْجَيْشِ، وَيَهُوشَافَاطُ بْنُ أَخِيلُودَ مُسَجِّلًا،

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

16 وَصَادُوقُ بْنُ أَخِيطُوبَ وَأَبِيمَالِكُ بْنُ أَبِيَاثَارَ كَاهِنَيْنِ، وَشَوْشَا كَاتِبًا،

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

17 وَبَنَايَا بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ عَلَى ٱلْجَّلَادِينَ وَٱلسُّعَاةِ، وَبَنُو دَاوُدَ ٱلْأَوَّلِينَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ ٱلْمَلِكِ.
