¹Now after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and her towns out of the hand of the Philistines.

¹ A go mo, woodin banda Dawda na Filistancey kar ka zeeri k'i kaynandi. A na Gat kwaara nda nga kawyey ta Filistancey kambe ra.

²And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became David's servants, and brought gifts.

² A na Mowab mo zeeri. Mowabancey ciya Dawda bannyayaŋ, ka kande _a se|_ jangal.

³And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah unto Hamath, as he went to stablish his dominion by the river Euphrates.

³ Dawda na Zoba bonkoono Hadad-Ezer mo zeeri ka to hala Hamat gaa. A mayra to mo hala Ufratis isa me gaa.

⁴And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: David also houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them an hundred chariots.

⁴ Dawda na wongu torko zambar fo ta a gaa, da bari-kari zambar iyye, da ce-koy zambar waranka. Dawda na torko bariyey kulu tanje kaajey beeri ka pati, amma a fay da wo kaŋ yaŋ ga wasa torko zangu se.

⁵And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.

⁵ Waato kaŋ Damaskos Suriyancey kaa ka kande Zoba bonkoono Hadad-Ezer se gaakasinay, Dawda na boro zambar waranka cindi hinka wi Suriyancey do haray.

⁶Then David put garrisons in Syriadamascus; and the Syrians became David's servants, and brought gifts. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

⁶ Gaa no Dawda na wongu batandikoyaŋ daŋ Damaskos kwaara, Suriya laabo ra. Suriyancey mo ciya Dawda tamyaŋ, ka kande _a se|_ jangal. Rabbi na Dawda gaa nangu kulu kaŋ a ga koy.

⁷And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

⁷ Wura korayey mo kaŋ yaŋ Hadad-Ezer tamey ga jare doŋ, Dawda n'i ku ka kand'ey Urusalima.

⁸Likewise from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, brought David very much brass, wherewith Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

⁸ Hadad-Ezer kwaarey Tibnat da Kun ra mo, Dawda na guuru-say boobo sambu. Suleymanu goy d'a ka guuru-say bango, da muuley da guuru-say goy jinayey te d'a.

⁹Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah;

⁹ Waato kaŋ Hamat bonkoono Toy maa baaru kaŋ Dawda na Zoba bonkoono Hadad-Ezer wongu marga kulu kar,

¹⁰He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to enquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had war with Tou;) and with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.

¹⁰ kal a na nga ize Hadoram donton Bonkoono Dawda do. A kaa k'a baani hã, k'a saabu mo, zama a wongu nda Hadad-Ezer k'a kar mo. Zama Hadad-Ezer doona ka kande wongu Toy gaa. Hadoram mo kande wura nda nzarfu nda guuru-say jinay kulu dumi.

¹¹Them also king David dedicated unto the LORD, with the silver and the gold that he brought from all these nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.

¹¹ Bonkoono Dawda na woodin yaŋ mo fay waani Rabbi se, ka margu nda nzarfu nda wura kaŋ a ku ka fun d'ey Edom, da Mowab, da Amon izey, da Filistancey, da Amalek laabey kulu ra.

¹²Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah slew of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand.

¹² Zeruwiya ize Abisay mo na Edomance zambar way cindi ahakku kar Ciiri Gooro ra.

¹³And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became David's servants. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

¹³ A na wongu batandikoyaŋ daŋ Edom laabo ra mo hala Edomancey kulu ciya Dawda se tamyaŋ. Rabbi na Dawda gaa mo nangu kulu kaŋ a ga koy.

¹⁴So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.

¹⁴ Yaadin no Dawda na Israyla kulu may d'a. A go ga cimi ciiti nda adilitaray te nga jama kulu se.

¹⁵And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, recorder.

¹⁵ Zeruwiya izo Yowab ga ti wongu marga jine bora. Yehosafat Ahilud izo ga ti laabo baaru hantumkwa.

¹⁶And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Shavsha was scribe;

¹⁶ Ahitub izo Zadok da Abiyatar izo Abimelek mo ga ti alfagey. Sabsa ga ti bonkoono se hantumkwa.

¹⁷And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief about the king.

¹⁷ Yehoyda izo Benaya go bonkoono doogarey boŋ, kaŋ ga ti Keretey da Peletey. Dawda izey mo ga ti koy kayna yaŋ ka bonkoono gaakasinay.
