1 After this, David defeated the Philistines and subdued them. From the grip of the Philistines he wrested. . .1 Poslije toga David porazi Filistejce i pokori ih te ote Gat s njegovim selima iz filistejskih ruku.
2 He also defeated the Moabites and, making them lie on the ground, measured them off by the line; hemeasured out two lines to be put to death and one ful line to have their lives spared. The Moabites becameDavid's subjects and paid him tribute.2 Porazi i Moapce i izmjeri ih uzicom polegavši ih po zemlji: dvije uzice odmjeri onih koje treba pogubiti, a jednu punu uzicu onih koje treba ostaviti na životu. Tako Moapci postadoše Davidovi podanici koji su mu donosili danak.
3 David defeated Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah, when the latter mounted an expedition toextend his power over the River.3 David je porazio i Hadadezera, Rehobova sina, sopskoga kralja, kad je izišao da proširi svoju vlast do Rijeke.
4 David captured one thousand seven hundred charioteers and twenty thousand foot soldiers from him;David hamstrung all the chariot teams, keeping only a hundred of them.4 David zarobi od njega tisuću i sedam stotina konjanika i dvadeset tisuća pješaka; ispresijecao je petne žile svim konjima od bojnih kola; ostavio ih je samo stotinu.
5 The Aramaeans of Damascus came to the help of Hadadezer king of Zobah, but David kil ed twenty-two thousand of the Aramaeans.5 Damaščanski su Aramejci došli u pomoć Hadadezeru, sopskome kralju, ali je David pobio među Aramejcima dvadeset i dvije tisuće ljudi.
6 David then imposed governors on Aram of Damascus, and the Aramaeans became David's subjectsand paid him tribute. Wherever David went, Yahweh gave him victory.6 Postavio je namjesnike u Damaščanskom Aramu. Tako Aramejci postadoše Davidovi podanici i moradoše mu plaćati danak. Jahve je davao pobjedu Davidu kuda je god išao.
7 David took the golden shields carried by Hadadezer's guards and brought them to Jerusalem.7 David zaplijeni zlatne štitove što ih imahu Hadadezerove sluge i donese ih u Jeruzalem.
8 From Betah and Berothai, towns belonging to Hadadezer, King David captured a great quantity ofbronze.8 Iz Tebaha i iz Berotaja, Hadadezerovih gradova, donese kralj David silnu mjed.
9 When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had defeated Hadadezer's entire army,9 Kad je čuo hamatski kralj Tou da je David porazio svu Hadadezerovu vojsku,
10 he sent his son Hadoram to King David to greet him and to congratulate him on having made war onHadadezer and on having defeated him, since Hadadezer was at war with Tou. Hadoram brought with himobjects made of silver, gold and bronze,10 poslao je svoga sina Hadorama kralju Davidu da ga pozdravi i da mu čestita što je vojevao protiv Hadadezera i porazio ga, jer je Hadadezer bio u ratu s Touom; Hadoram donese srebrnih, zlatnih i mjedenih predmeta.
11 which King David also consecrated to Yahweh, as he had already consecrated the silver and goldtaken from al the nations which he had subjugated-11 I njih kralj David posveti Jahvi sa srebrom i zlatom što ga bijaše uzeo od svih naroda koje je pokorio:
12 from Aram, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines and Amalek; and from the spoil of Hadadezer son ofRehob, king of Zobah.12 od Aramaca, Moabaca, Amonaca, Filistejaca i od Amalečana te od plijena Hadadezera, Rehobova sina, kralja Sobe.
13 David became famous when he came home from defeating the Edomites in the Valley of Salt --eighteen thousand of them.13 David steče novu slavu kad je na povratku porazio Edomce, u Slanoj dolini, osamnaest tisuća njih.
14 He imposed governors on Edom and all the Edomites became David's subjects. Wherever Davidwent, Yahweh gave him victory.14 I postavi upravitelje u Edomu, i svi Edomci postadoše podanici Davidovi. I kuda je god David išao, Jahve mu davaše pobjedu.
15 David ruled over al Israel, administering law and justice to al his people.15 David kraljevaše nad svim Izraelom, čineći pravo i pravicu svemu svome narodu.
16 Joab son of Zeruiah was in command of the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was herald;16 Joab, sin Sarvijin, zapovijedaše vojskom, a Jošafat, sin Ahiludov, bijaše ljetopisac.
17 Zadok and Abiathar son of Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, were priests; Seraiah was secretary;17 Sadok, sin Ahitubov, i Ebjatar, sin Ahimelekov, bijahu svećenici; Seraja bijaše državni pisar;
18 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was in command of the Cherethites and Pelethites; David's sons werepriests.18 Benaja, sin Jojadin, zapovijedaše Kerećanima i Pelećanima; Davidovi sinovi bijahu namjesnici.
