¹Ja pärast seda sündis, et Taavet lõi vilisteid ja alistas nad; ta võttis Gati ja selle tütarlinnad vilistitelt ära.

¹After this it happened, that David struck the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and its towns out of the hand of the Philistines.

²Ta lõi ka moabe ja moabid said Taaveti alamaiks, kes pidid ande tooma.

²He struck Moab; and the Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.

³Ja Taavet lõi Hadadeserit, Hamati pool oleva Sooba kuningat, kui see oli teel Frati jõe äärde oma valitsust rajama.

³David struck Hadadezer king of Zobah to Hamath, as he went to establish his dominion by the river Euphrates.

⁴Taavet võttis temalt tuhat vankrit ja seitse tuhat ratsanikku ja kakskümmend tuhat jalameest; ja Taavet raius kõigil vankrihobustel õndlad katki, ent jättis neist sada rakendit alles.

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

⁵Ent Damaskusest tulid Hadadeserile, Sooba kuningale, appi süürlased; aga Taavet lõi süürlastest maha kakskümmend kaks tuhat meest.

⁵When the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck of the Syrians twenty-two thousand men.

⁶Ja Taavet pani linnaväe Süüria Damaskusesse ning süürlased said Taaveti alamaiks, kes pidid ande tooma. Ja Issand aitas Taavetit kõikjal, kuhu ta läks.

⁶Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought tribute. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.

⁷Ja Taavet võttis kuldkilbid, mis Hadadeseri sulastel olid, ja viis need Jeruusalemma.

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

⁸Ja Tibhatist ja Kuunist, Hadadeseri linnadest, võttis Taavet väga palju vaske. Sellest tegi Saalomon vaskmere, sambad ja vaskriistad.

⁸From Tibhath and from Cun, cities of Hadadezer, David took very much brass, with which Solomon made the bronze sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

⁹Kui Tou, Hamati kuningas, kuulis, et Taavet oli maha löönud kogu Sooba kuninga Hadadeseri väe,

⁹When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,

¹⁰siis ta läkitas oma poja Hadorami kuningas Taaveti juurde temalt küsima, kuidas ta käsi käib, ja teda õnnitlema selle pärast, et ta oli Hadadeseriga sõdinud ja teda löönud, sest Hadadeser oli olnud Tou vaenlane; ja tal oli kaasas kõiksugu kuld-, hõbe- ja vaskriistu.

¹⁰he sent Hadoram his son to king David, to Greet him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him; (for Hadadezer had wars with Tou;) and he had with him all kinds of vessels of gold and silver and brass.

¹¹Ka need pühitses kuningas Taavet Issandale koos selle hõbeda ja kullaga, mis ta oli võtnud kõigilt paganailt: edomlastelt, moabidelt, ammonlastelt, vilistitelt ja amalekkidelt.

¹¹King David also dedicated these to Yahweh, 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.

¹²Ja Abisai, Seruja poeg, lõi Soolaorus maha kaheksateist tuhat edomlast

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

¹³ja pani Edomisse linnaväed; ja kõik edomlased said Taaveti alamaiks. Ja Issand aitas Taavetit kõikjal, kuhu ta läks.

¹³He put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became servants to David. Yahweh gave victory to David wherever he went.

¹⁴Ja Taavet valitses kogu Iisraeli üle, ja ta mõistis kohut ja õigust kogu oma rahvale.

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

¹⁵Ja Joab, Seruja poeg, oli väeülem; ja Joosafat, Ahiluudi poeg, oli nõunik.

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

¹⁶Ja Saadok, Ahituubi poeg, ja Abimelek, Ebjatari poeg, olid preestrid; ja Savsa oli kirjutaja.

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

¹⁷Ja Benaja, Joojada poeg, oli kreetide ja pleetide ülem; aga Taaveti pojad olid esimesed kuninga kõrval.

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