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

¹¶ Na, muri iho i tenei, ka patua e Rawiri nga Pirihitini, a pehia ana e ia ki raro, tangohia ana e ia a Kata me ona pa ririki i te ringa o nga Pirihitini.

²And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.

²I patua ano e ia a Moapa: na kua waiho nga Moapi hei pononga ma Rawiri, a homai ana he hakari e ratou.

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

³I patua ano e Rawiri a Hararetere kingi o Topa a tae noa ki Hamata, i tona haerenga ki te whakau i tona rohe ki te awa, ki Uparati.

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

⁴Na tangohia ana e Rawiri i a ia kotahi mono nga hariata, e whitu mano nga hoia eke hoiho, e rua tekau mano nga tangata haere i raro: a i whakangongea e Rawiri nga hoiho katoa o nga hariata, engari i whakatoea o ratou nga mea mo nga hariata kotahi rau.

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

⁵A, no te haerenga mai o nga Hiriani o Ramahiku ki te whakauru i a Hararetere kingi o Topa, patua iho e Rawiri o nga Hiriani e rua tekau ma rua mano tangata.

⁶Then David put [garrisons] in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought tribute. And Jehovah gave victory to David whithersoever he went.

⁶Katahi ka whakanohoia e Rawiri he hoia pupuri ki Hiria o Ramahiku; a ka waiho nga Hiriani hei pononga ma Rawiri, a homai ana he hakari e ratou. Na homai ana e Ihowa kia toa a Rawiri i ona haerenga katoa.

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

⁷A tangohia ana e Rawiri nga whakangungu rakau koura o nga tangata a Hararetere, a kawea ana ki Hiruharama.

⁸And from Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadarezer, David took very much brass, wherewith Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

⁸A nui atu te parahi i tangohia e Rawiri i Tipihata, i Kunu, i nga pa o Hararetere; no reira te moana parahi, nga pou, me nga oko parahi i hanga nei e Horomona.

⁹And when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah,

⁹¶ A, no te rongonga o Tohu kingi o Hamata kua patua e Rawiri te ope katoa a Hararetere kingi o Topa,

¹⁰he sent Hadoram his son to king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadarezer and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had wars with Tou;) and [he had with him] all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.

¹⁰Ka tonoa e ia a Hatorama, tana tama, ki a Kingi Rawiri ki te oha ki a ia, ki te manaaki hoki i a ia, mona i whawhai ki a Hararetere, i patu hoki i a ia: he hoariri hoki a Hararetere no Tohu; a he taonga ana, te tini o nga oko koura, hiriwa, para hi.

¹¹These also did king David dedicate unto Jehovah, with the silver and the gold that he carried away from all the nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek.

¹¹Whakatapua ake era e Kingi Rawiri ma Ihowa hei tapiri mo te hiriwa, mo te koura, i maua mai e ia i nga iwi katoa; i nga Eromi, i nga Moapi, i nga tama a Amona, i nga Pirihitini, i nga Amareki.

¹²Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah smote of the Edomites in the Valley of Salt eighteen thousand.

¹²Na i patua hoki e Apihai tama a Teruia etahi o nga Eromi ki te Raorao Tote, kotahi tekau ma waru mano.

¹³And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became servants to David. And Jehovah gave victory to David whithersoever he went.

¹³I whakanohoia ano e ia he hoia pupuri ki Eroma: a ka meinga nga Eromi katoa hei pononga ma Rawiri. Na homai ana e Ihowa kia toa a Rawiri i ona haerenga katoa.

¹⁴And David reigned over all Israel; and he executed justice and righteousness unto all his people.

¹⁴Na ko Rawiri te kingi o Iharaira katoa; a i mahi i te whakawa, i te tika mo tona iwi katoa.

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

¹⁵A ko Ioapa tama a Teruia te rangatira ope, ko Iehohapata tama a Ahiruru te kaiwhakamahara.

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

¹⁶Ko Haroko tama a Ahitupu raua ko Apimereke tama a Apiatara nga tohunga; ko Hawaha hoki te kaituhituhi;

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

¹⁷Ko Penaia tama a Iehoiara te rangatira mo nga Kereti, mo nga Pereti; ko nga tama ia a Rawiri nga tino rangatira i te taha o te kingi.
