1 Factum est autem post haec, ut percuteret David Phili sthim et humiliaret eos et tolleret Geth et filias eius de manu Philisthim	1 After this, David defeated the Philistines and subdued them; and he took Gath and its towns away from the control of the Philistines.
2 percuteretque Moab, et fierent Moabitae servi David offerentes ei tributum.	2 He also defeated Moab, and the Moabites became his subjects, paying tribute.
3 Et percussit David etiam Adadezer regem Soba in regione ad Emath, quando perrexit, ut dilataret imperium suum usque ad flumen Euphraten.	3 David then defeated Hadadezer, king of Zobah toward Hamath, when the latter was on his way to set up his victory stele at the river Euphrates.
4 Cepit ergo David mille quadrigas eius et septem milia equites ac viginti milia virorum peditum; subnervavitque omnes equos curruum, exceptis centum quadrigis, quas reservavit sibi.	4 David took from him twenty thousand foot soldiers, one thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen. Of the chariot horses, David hamstrung all but one hundred.
5 Supervenit autem et Syrus Damascenus, ut auxilium praeberet Adadezer regi Soba; sed et huius percussit David viginti duo milia virorum	5 The Arameans of Damascus came to the aid of Hadadezer, king of Zobah, but David also slew twenty-two thousand of their men.
6 et posuit praesidium in Syria Damasci, ut Syria quoque serviret sibi et offerret tributum. Adiuvitque eum Dominus in cunctis, ad quae perrexerat.	6 Then David set up garrisons in the Damascus region of Aram, and the Arameans became his subjects, paying tribute. Thus the LORD made David victorious in all his campaigns.
7 Tulit quoque David arma aurea, quae habuerant servi Adadezer, et attulit ea in Ierusalem;	7 David took the golden shields that were carried by Hadadezer's attendants and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 necnon de Tebah et Chun urbibus Adadezer aeris plurimum, de quo fecit Salomon mare aeneum et columnas et vasa aenea.	8 He likewise took away from Tibhath and Cun, cities of Hadadezer, large quantities of bronze, which Solomon later used to make the bronze sea and the pillars and the vessels of bronze.
9 Quod cum audisset Thou rex Emath, percussisse videlicet David omnem exercitum Adadezer regis Soba,	9 When Tou, king of Hamath, heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer, king of Zobah,
10 misit Adoram filium suum ad regem David, ut salutaret eum et congratularetur, eo quod pugnasset cum Adadezer et percussisset eum; adversarius quippe erat Thou Adadezer.	10 he sent his son Hadoram to wish King David well and to congratulate him on having waged a victorious war against Hadadezer; for Hadadezer had been at war with Tou. He also sent David gold, silver and bronze utensils of every sort.
11 Sed et omnia vasa aurea et argentea et aenea consecravit rex David Domino cum argento et auro, quod tulerat ex universis gentibus, tam de Idumaea et Moab et filiis Ammon, quam de Philisthim et Amalec.	11 These also King David consecrated to the LORD along with all the silver and gold that he had taken from the nations: from Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, and Amalek.
12 Abisai vero filius Sarviae percussit Edom in valle Salis decem et octo milia	12 Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, also slew eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt.
13 et constituit in Edom praesidium, ut serviret Idumaea David. Salvavitque Dominus David in cunctis, ad quae perrexerat.	13 He set up garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David's subjects. Thus the LORD made David victorious in all his campaigns.
14 Regnavit ergo David super universum Israel et faciebat iudicium atque iustitiam cuncto populo suo.	14 David reigned over all Israel and dispensed justice and right to all his people.
15 Porro Ioab filius Sarviae erat super exercitum, et Iosaphat filius Ahilud a commentariis.	15 Joab, son of Zeruiah, was in command of the army; Jehoshaphat, son of Ahilud, was herald;
16 Sadoc autem filius Achitob et Achimelech filius Abiathar sacerdotes et Susa scriba.	16 Zadok, son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech, son of Abiathar, were priests; Shavsha was scribe;
17 Banaias vero filius Ioiadae super legiones Cherethi et Phelethi; porro filii David primi ad manum regis.	17 Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, was in command of the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were the chief assistants to the king.
