¹And after this it came to pass that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them: and David took Methegammah out of the hand of the Philistines.

¹ Woodin banda Dawda ye ka Filistancey kar k'i kaynandi mo. Dawda n'i kwaara beero dabari ta Filistancey kambe ra.

²And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the ground; even with two lines measured he to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And so the Moabites became David's servants, and brought gifts.

² A na Mowab mo kar, a n'i kanandi sorro-sorro ka naŋ i ma kani ganda. A na sorro hinka candi kaŋ yaŋ i ga wi, sorro fo kubante mo kaŋ i ga naŋ da fundi. Mowab borey binde ciya Dawda tamyaŋ, i goono ga kand'a se jangal.

³David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates.

³ Hadad-Ezer, Rehob izo, Zoba bonkoono, Dawda n'i kar, waato kaŋ a go diraw ra ga koy ka nga waato mayra ta gooro me gaa.

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

⁴ Dawda na bari-kari zambar fo da zangu iyye ta a gaa, da ce-koy zambar waranka. Dawda na torkey bariyey kulu tanjay kaajey beeri-beeri, amma a fay da haŋ kaŋ yaŋ ga wasa torko zangu se.

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

⁵ Waato kaŋ Suriya borey kaŋ yaŋ go Damaskos kaa zama ngey ma kande Zoba bonkoono Hadad-Ezer se gaakasinay, Dawda na boro zambar waranka cindi hinka kar Suriya borey ra mo.

⁶Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus: and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought gifts. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

⁶ Waato din gaa Dawda na wongu batukoyaŋ daŋ Damaskos kwaara, Suriya laabo ra. Suriyancey ciya Dawda tamyaŋ, i kande jangal mo. Rabbi na Dawda gaa nangu kulu kaŋ a ga koy.

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

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

⁸And from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceeding much brass.

⁸ Hadad-Ezer birney ra, kaŋ ga ti Beta nda Berotay, Bonkoono Dawda na guuru-say boobo sambu.

⁹When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,

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

¹⁰Then Toi sent Joram his son unto king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass:

¹⁰ kala Toy na nga ize Yoram donton bonkoono Dawda do zama nga m'a baani hã, nga m'a saabu mo, za kaŋ a na Hadad-Ezer wongu k'a kar. Zama Hadad-Ezer wo doona ka kande wongu Toy gaa. Yoram binde kande wura nda nzarfu jinay da guuru-say jinay nga banda.

¹¹Which also king David did dedicate unto the LORD, with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all nations which he subdued;

¹¹ Bonkoono Dawda na woodin yaŋ fay waani Rabbi se, wura nda nzarfu kaŋ yaŋ a jin ka fay waani baa si, dumey kulu kaŋ a n'i mayra ta wane:

¹²Of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

¹² Suriya wane, da Mowab, da Amon, da Filistancey, da Amalekancey, da Hadad-Ezer wongo arzaka, da Zoba bonkoono Rehob izo wano.

¹³And David gat him a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, being eighteen thousand men.

¹³ Dawda binde te maa waato kaŋ a ye ka kaa ka fun Suriya borey kaŋ yaŋ go Ciiri Gooro ra wiyaŋo do, boro zambar way cindi ahakku no.

¹⁴And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all they of Edom became David's servants. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

¹⁴ A na batukoyaŋ daŋ Edom ra, Edom laabo kulu ra no a na batukoyaŋ daŋ. Edomancey kulu binde ciya Dawda tamyaŋ. Rabbi na Dawda gaa mo nangu kulu kaŋ a ga koy.

¹⁵And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice unto all his people.

¹⁵ Dawda may Israyla kulu boŋ. A na cimi ciiti te mo adilitaray boŋ nga jama kulu se.

¹⁶And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;

¹⁶ Zeruwiya izo Yowab ga ti wongu marga jine bora. Ahilud izo Yehosafat, nga mo ga ti laabo baaru hantumkwa.

¹⁷And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Seraiah was the scribe;

¹⁷ Ahitub izo Zadok da Abiyatar izo Ahimelek, ngey no ga ti alfagey*. Seraya no ga ti bonkoono hantumkwa.

¹⁸And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over both the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were chief rulers.

¹⁸ Yehoyda izo Benaya mo go bonkoono doogarey boŋ. Dawda izey mo gonda dabari.
