2 He also defeated the Moabites; the Moabites became David's subjects and paid him tribute.	2 וַיַּךְ אֶת־מֹואָב וַיִּהְיוּ מֹואָב עֲבָדִים לְדָוִיד נֹשְׂאֵי מִנְחָה

4 David captured one thousand chariots, seven thousand charioteers and twenty thousand foot soldiersfrom him; David hamstrung al the chariot teams, keeping only a hundred of them.	4 וַיִּלְכֹּד דָּוִיד מִמֶּנּוּ אֶלֶף רֶכֶב וְשִׁבְעַת אֲלָפִים פָּרָשִׁים וְעֶשְׂרִים אֶלֶף אִישׁ רַגְלִי וַיְעַקֵּר דָּוִיד אֶת־כָּל־הָרֶכֶב וַיֹּותֵר מִמֶּנּוּ מֵאָה רָכֶב

7 David took the golden shields carried by Hadadezer's guards and brought them to Jerusalem.	7 וַיִּקַּח דָּוִיד אֵת שִׁלְטֵי הַזָּהָב אֲשֶׁר הָיוּ עַל עַבְדֵי הֲדַדְעָזֶר וַיְבִיאֵם יְרוּשָׁלִָם
8 From Tibhath and from Cun, towns belonging to Hadadezer, David captured a great quantity ofbronze, with which Solomon made the bronze Sea, the pil ars and the bronze implements.	8 וּמִטִּבְחַת וּמִכּוּן עָרֵי הֲדַדְעֶזֶר לָקַח דָּוִיד נְחֹשֶׁת רַבָּה מְאֹד בָּהּ ׀ עָשָׂה שְׁלֹמֹה אֶת־יָם הַנְּחֹשֶׁת וְאֶת־הָעַמּוּדִים וְאֵת כְּלֵי הַנְּחֹשֶׁת׃ פ
9 When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,	9 וַיִּשְׁמַע תֹּעוּ מֶלֶךְ חֲמָת כִּי הִכָּה דָוִיד אֶת־כָּל־חֵיל הֲדַדְעֶזֶר מֶלֶךְ־צֹובָה
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. He also sent al sorts of objectsmade of gold, silver and bronze,	10 וַיִּשְׁלַח אֶת־הֲדֹורָם־בְּנֹו אֶל־הַמֶּלֶךְ־דָּוִיד [לִשְׁאֹול־ כ] (לִשְׁאָל־לֹו ק) לְשָׁלֹום וּלְבָרֲכֹו עַל אֲשֶׁר נִלְחַם בַּהֲדַדְעֶזֶר וַיַּכֵּהוּ כִּי־אִישׁ מִלְחֲמֹות תֹּעוּ הָיָה הֲדַדְעָזֶר וְכֹל כְּלֵי זָהָב וָכֶסֶף וּנְחֹשֶׁת
11 which King David also consecrated to Yahweh, as wel as the silver and gold which he had leviedfrom al the nations, from Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines and Amalek.	11 גַּם־אֹתָם הִקְדִּישׁ הַמֶּלֶךְ דָּוִיד לַיהוָה עִם־הַכֶּסֶף וְהַזָּהָב אֲשֶׁר נָשָׂא מִכָּל־הַגֹּויִם מֵאֱדֹום וּמִמֹּואָב וּמִבְּנֵי עַמֹּון וּמִפְּלִשְׁתִּים וּמֵעֲמָלֵק

13 He stationed garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David's subjects. Wherever Davidwent, Yahweh gave him victory.	13 וַיָּשֶׂם בֶּאֱדֹום נְצִיבִים וַיִּהְיוּ כָל־אֱדֹום עֲבָדִים לְדָוִיד וַיֹּושַׁע יְהוָה אֶת־דָּוִיד בְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר הָלָךְ
14 David ruled over all Israel, administering law and justice to al his people.	14 וַיִּמְלֹךְ דָּוִיד עַל־כָּל־יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיְהִי עֹשֶׂה מִשְׁפָּט וּצְדָקָה לְכָל־עַמֹּו
