CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAINBIBBIA TINTORI
1 Now after these things, it happened that David struck the Philistines, and he humbled them, and he took Gath and her daughters from the hand of the Philistines.1 Dopo queste cose David percosse i Filistei, li umiliò e tolse Get e le città da lei dipendenti di mano ai Filistei.
2 And he struck Moab. And the Moabites became the servants of David, offering gifts to him.2 Percosse anche Moab, e i Moabiti divennero servi di David e suoi tributari.
3 In that time, David also struck Hadadezer, the king of Zobah, in the region of Hamath, when he went forth so that he might extend his dominion as far as the river Euphrates.3 In quel tempo David percosse anche Adarezer re di Soba nel pae­se di Emat, allorché egli si avanzò per dilatare il suo dominio fino al fiume Eufrate.
4 Then David seized one thousand of his four-horse chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand men on foot. And he hamstrung all the chariot horses, except for one hundred four-horse chariots, which he reserved for himself.4 David gli prese mille quadrighe, sette mila cavalieri, venti mila pedoni, e tagliò i garetti a tutti i cavalli dei carri, eccettuate cento quadrighe che si riservò.
5 Then the Syrians of Damascus also arrived, so that they might offer assistance to Hadadezer, the king of Zobah. And so, David then struck of them twenty-two thousand men.5 Or quando il Siro di Damasco gli venne addosso per soccorrere Adarezer re di Soba, David gli uccise ventidue mila uomini.
6 And he stationed soldiers in Damascus, so that Syria also would serve him, and would offer gifts. And the Lord assisted him in all the things to which he went forth.6 Poi mise dei soldati in Damasco, per tener soggetta e tributaria la Siria. Il Signore lo aiutò in tutte le imprese in cui s'era messo.
7 Also, David took the golden quivers, which the servants of Hadadezer had, and he brought them to Jerusalem.7 David prese le faretre d'oro che avevano i servi di Adarezer, le portò a Gerusalemme,
8 In addition, from Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, he brought very much brass, from which Solomon made the sea of brass, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.8 come pure da Tebat, da Cun, città d'Adarezer, grande quantità di rame, col quale poi Salomone fece il mare di rame, le colonne e i vasi di rame.
9 Now when Toi, the king of Hamath, had heard this, specifically that David had struck the entire army of Hadadezer, the king of Zobah,9 Or quando Tou re di Emat intese che David aveva disfatto tutto l'esercito di Adarezer re di Soba,
10 he sent his son Hadoram to king David so that he might petition peace from him, and so that he might congratulate him that he had struck and defeated Hadadezer. For indeed, Toi was an adversary to Hadadezer.10 mandò il suo figlio Adoram al re David per chiedergli pace e per congratularsi con lui d'aver abbattuto e sconfitto Adarezer. Tou era nemico d'Adarezer.
11 Moreover, all the vessels of gold and silver and brass king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and gold that he had taken from all the nations, as much from Idumea, and Moab, and the sons of Ammon, as from the Philistines and Amalek.11 Or tutti i vasi d'oro, d'argento e di rame il re David li consacrò al Signore, coll'argento e l'oro che egli aveva preso a tutte le genti: all'Idumea, a Moab, ai figli d'Ammon, ai Filistei, ad Amalec.
12 Truly, Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, struck eighteen thousand of the Edomites in the Valley of the Salt Pits.12 Inoltre Abisai figlio di Sarvia percosse diciotto mila Idumei nella Valle delle Saline,
13 And he stationed a garrison in Edom, so that Idumea would serve David. And the Lord saved David in all the things to which he went forth.13 e pose un pre­sidio nell'Idumea, affinchè l'Idumea stesse soggetta a David. Il Signore salvò David in tutte le sue imprese.
14 Therefore, David reigned over all of Israel, and he executed judgment and justice among all his people.14 David regnò sopra tutto Israele, rendendo ragione e giustizia a tutto il suo popolo.
15 Now Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was over the army, and Jehoshaphat, the son of Ahilud, was the keeper of records.15 Gioab figlio di Sarvia era capo dell'esercito; Giosafat figlio di Ahilud era lo storico;
16 And Zadok, the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, the son of Abiathar, were the priests. And Shavsha was the scribe.16 Sadoc figlio di Achitob e Ahimelec figlio di Abiatar eran sacerdoti; Susa era segretario;
17 Also, Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, was over the legions of the Cherethites and Pelethites. But the sons of David were first at the hand of the king.17 Banaia figlio di Ioiada comandava le legioni dei Ceretei e dei Feletei; e i figli di David erano i primi ministri del re.
