SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 وبعد ذلك ضرب داود الفلسطينيين وذلّلهم واخذ داود زمام القصبة من يد الفلسطينيين.	1 And it came to pass after this that David defeated the Philistines, and brought them down, and David took the bridle of tribute out of the hand of the Philistines.
2 وضرب الموآبيين وقاسهم بالحبل. اضجعهم على الارض فقاس بحبلين للقتل وبحبل كامل للاستحياء. وصار الموآبيون عبيدا لداود يقدمون هدايا	2 And he defeated Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the earth: and he measured with two lines, one to put to death, and one to save alive: and Moab was made to serve David under tribute.
3 وضرب داود هدد عزر بن رحوب ملك صوبة حين ذهب ليرد سلطته عند نهر الفرات.	3 David defeated also Adarezer the son of Rohob king of Soba, when he went to extend his dominion over the river Euphrates.
4 فاخذ داود منه الفا وسبع مئة فارس وعشرين الف راجل. وعرقب داود جميع خيل المركبات وابقى منها مئة مركبة.	4 And David took from him a thousand and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and houghed all the chariot horses: and only reserved of them for one hundred chariots.
5 فجاء ارام دمشق لنجدة هدد عزر ملك صوبة فضرب داود من ارام اثنين وعشرين الف رجل.	5 And the Syrians of Damascus came to succour Adarezer the king of Soba: and David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.
6 وجعل داود محافظين في ارام دمشق وصار الاراميون لداود عبيدا يقدمون هدايا. وكان الرب يخلّص داود حيثما توجه.	6 And David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus: and Syria served David under tribute: and the Lord preserved David in all his enterprises, whithersoever he went.
7 واخذ داود اتراس الذهب التي كانت على عبيد هدد عزر وأتى بها الى اورشليم.	7 And David took the arms of gold, which the servants of Adarezer wore, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 ومن باطح ومن بيروثاي مدينتي هدد عزر اخذ الملك داود نحاسا كثيرا جدا	8 And out of Bete, and out of Beroth, cities of Adarezer, king David took an exceeding great quantity of brass.
9 وسمع توعي ملك حماة ان داود قد ضرب كل جيش هدد عزر	9 And Thou the king of Emath heard that David had defeated all the forces of Adarezer.
10 فارسل توعي يورام ابنه الى الملك داود ليسأل عن سلامته ويباركه لانه حارب هدد عزر وضربه لان هدد عزر كانت له حروب مع توعي. وكان بيده آنية فضة وآنية ذهب وآنية نحاس.	10 And Thou sent Joram his son to king David, to salute him, and to congratulate with him, and to return him thanks: because he had fought against Adarezer, and had defeated him. For Thou was an enemy to Adarezer, and in his hand were vessels of gold, and vessels of silver, and vessels of brass:
11 وهذه ايضا قدسها الملك داود للرب مع الفضة والذهب الذي قدسه من جميع الشعوب الذين اخضعهم.	11 And king David dedicated them to the Lord, together with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all the nations, which he had subdued:
12 من ارام ومن موآب ومن بني عمون ومن الفلسطينيين ومن عماليق ومن غنيمة هدد عزر بن رحوب ملك صوبة.	12 Of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalec, and of the spoils of Adarezer the son of Rohob king of Soba.
13 ونصب داود تذكارا عند رجوعه من ضربه ثمانية عشر الفا من ارام في وادي الملح.	13 David also made himself a name, when he returned after taking Syria in the valley of the saltpits, killing eighteen thousand:
14 وجعل في ادوم محافظين. وضع محافظين في ادوم كلها وكان جميع الادوميين عبيدا لداود وكان الرب يخلص داود حيثما توجه.	14 And he put guards in Edom, and placed there a garrison: and all Edom was made to serve David: and the Lord preserved David in all enterprises he went about.
15 وملك داود على جميع اسرائيل وكان داود يجري قضاء وعدلا لكل شعبه.	15 And David reigned over all Israel: and David did judgment and justice to all his people.
16 وكان يوآب ابن صروية على الجيش ويهوشافاط بن اخيلود مسجلا	16 And Joab the son of Sarvia was over the army: and Josaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder:
17 وصادوق بن اخيطوب واخيمالك بن ابياثار كاهنين وسرايا كاتبا	17 And Sadoc the son of Achitob, and Achimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests: and Saraias was the scribe:
18 وبناياهو بن يهوياداع على الجلادين والسعاة وبنو داود كانوا كهنة	18 And Banaias the son of Joiada was over the Cerethi and Phelethi: and the sons of David were the princes.
