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.

⁴Laj David quixchapeb jun mil li carruaje ut quixchapeb ajcuiß cuukub mil lix soldâdeb li nequeßxic chirix cacuây. Ut quixchapeb ajcuiß junmay mil li soldado li nequeßxic chi rokeb.

⁹Ut laj Toi, lix reyeb li cuanqueb saß li tenamit Hamat, quirabi resil nak laj David quinumta saß xbêneb chixjunileb lix soldado laj Hadad-ezer, lix reyeb laj Soba.

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.

¹⁰Joßcan nak quixtakla laj Adoram li ralal re nak tixqßue xsahil xchßôl laj David ut tixye re nak sa saß xchßôl laj Toi nak laj David quinumta saß xbêneb laj Hadad-ezer.

¹²Joßcan ajcuiß laj Abisai lix yum lix Sarvia. Quixcamsiheb cuakxaklaju mil laj Edom saß li ru takßa li cuan cuiß li atzßam.

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

¹³Li rey David quixyîb lix naßajeb lix soldado saß chixjunileb li naßajej Edom. Ut eb li cuanqueb aran queßcana rubel xcuanquil laj David. Li Kâcuaß quitenkßan re laj David chi numtâc saß xbêneb li quicuulac cuiß chi pletic.
