¹A potom sa stalo, že Dávid porazil Filištínov a zohnul ich a vzal Gát i jeho dediny z ruky Filištínov.

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.

²Porazil aj Moába, a tak boli Moabiti služobníkmi Dávidovi, donášajúcimi dary-poplatky.

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

³Dávid porazil aj Hadarézera, kráľa Cóby, až po Chamat, keď išiel, aby si dobyl panstvo na rieke Eufrate.

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

⁴Dávid zajal od neho tisíc vozov a sedem tisíc jazdcov a dvadsať tisíc mužov peších. A Dávid popodrezoval koňom od všetkých vozov žily a ponechal z toho koní pre sto vozov.

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

⁵A keď prišiel Sýr z Damašku, aby pomohol Hadarézerovi, kráľovi Cóby, porazil Dávid z Arama dvadsaťdva tisíc mužov.

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

⁶A Dávid osadil stráže v Damašskej Sýrii. A tak boli Sýrovia Dávidovi služobníkmi, donášajúcimi dary. A Hospodin chránil Dávida všade, kamkoľvek išiel.

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

⁷Potom vzal Dávid zlaté štíty, ktoré boli na služobníkoch Hadarézerových, a dopravil ich do Jeruzalema.

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

⁸A z Tibchatu a z Kúna, z miest Hadarézerových, pobral Dávid veľmi mnoho medi; z nej potom spravil Šalamún to medené more i stĺpy i medené nádoby.

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

⁹A keď počul Tou, kráľ Chamatu, že Dávid porazil všetko vojsko Hadarézera, kráľa Cóby,

⁹And Tou king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the forces of Hadarezer king of Zobah;

¹⁰poslal Hadoráma, svojho syna, ku kráľovi Dávidovi, aby ho pozdravil a aby mu blahoželal, že šťastne bojoval proti Hadarézerovi a porazil ho, lebo Hadarézer viedol vojny s Touvom. A všetko, čo doniesol Hadorám, boli zlaté, strieborné a medené nádoby.

¹⁰and he sent Hadoram his son to king David to inquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer and smitten him; for Hadarezer was continually at war with Tou; [he sent] also all manner of vessels of gold and silver and bronze.

¹¹I tie zasvätil kráľ Dávid Hospodinovi so striebrom a zlatom, ktoré podonášal od všetkých národov, od Edoma, Moába, od synov Ammonových a od Filištínov aj od Amalecha.

¹¹Them also king David dedicated to Jehovah, with the silver and the gold that he had brought from all the nations: from the Edomites, and from the Moabites, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from the Amalekites.

¹²A Abišai, syn Ceruje, porazil Edoma v Soľnej doline, osemnásť tisíc.

¹²And Abishai the son of Zeruiah smote of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand.

¹³A osadil v Edomsku stráže. A všetci Edomiti sa stali služobníkmi Dávidovými. A tak tedy chránil Hospodin Dávida všade, kamkoľvek išiel.

¹³And he put garrisons in Edom; and all they of Edom became servants to David. And Jehovah preserved David whithersoever he went.

¹⁴A Dávid kraľoval nad celým Izraelom a činil súd a spravedlivosť všetkému svojmu ľudu.

¹⁴And David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice to all his people.

¹⁵A Joáb, syn Ceruje, bol nad vojskom, a Jozafat, syn Achilúdov, bol kancelárom.

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

¹⁶Cádok, syn Achitúbov, a Abimelech, syn Ebiatárov, boli kňazmi, a Šavša bol pisárom.

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

¹⁷Benaiáš, syn Jehojadov, bol nad Keréťanmi a nad Peléťanmi, a synovia Dávidovi boli prví po ruke kráľa.

¹⁷and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were the first at the king's hand.
