2 Samuel 8

¹Sesudah itu Daud memukul kalah orang Filistin dan menundukkan mereka; lalu Daud mengambil kendali pemerintahan atas ibu kota dari tangan orang Filistin.

¹After this David defeated the Philistines and subdued them, and David took Metheg-ammah out of the hand of the Philistines.

²Dan ia memukul kalah orang Moab, lalu sambil menyuruh mereka berbaring di tanah ia mengukur tempat mereka dengan tali; diukurnya dua kali panjang tali itu untuk mematikan dan satu tali penuh untuk membiarkan hidup. Maka orang Moab takluk kepada Daud dan harus mempersembahkan upeti.

²And he defeated Moab and he measured them with a line, making them lie down on the ground. Two lines he measured to be put to death, and one full line to be spared. And the Moabites became servants to David and brought tribute.

³Selanjutnya Daud memukul kalah Hadadezer bin Rehob, raja Zoba, ketika ia pergi memulihkan kekuasaannya pada sungai Efrat.

³David also defeated Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to restore his power at the river Euphrates.

⁴Daud menawan dari padanya seribu tujuh ratus orang pasukan berkuda dan dua puluh ribu orang pasukan berjalan kaki, lalu Daud menyuruh memotong urat keting segala kuda kereta, tetapi dengan meninggalkan seratus ekor kuda kereta.

⁴And David took from him 1,700 horsemen, and 20,000 foot soldiers. And David hamstrung all the chariot horses but left enough for a hundred chariots.

⁵Lalu orang Aram dari Damsyik datang menolong Hadadezer, raja Zoba, tetapi dari antara orang Aram itu Daud menewaskan dua puluh dua ribu orang.

⁵And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck down 22,000 men of the Syrians.

⁶Kemudian Daud menempatkan pasukan-pasukan pendudukan di daerah orang Aram dari Damsyik. Orang Aram itu takluk kepada Daud dan harus mempersembahkan upeti. TUHAN memberi kemenangan kepada Daud ke manapun ia pergi berperang.

⁶Then David put garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Syrians became servants to David and brought tribute. And the LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.

⁷Sesudah itu Daud mengangkut perisai-perisai emas yang dipakai oleh anak buah Hadadezer, lalu membawanya ke Yerusalem.

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

⁸Dan dari Betah dan dari Berotai, yaitu kota-kotanya Hadadezer, raja Daud mengangkut amat banyak tembaga.

⁸And from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took very much bronze.

⁹Ketika didengar Tou, raja Hamat, bahwa Daud telah memukul kalah seluruh tentara Hadadezer,

⁹When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had defeated the whole army of Hadadezer,

¹⁰maka Tou mengutus Yoram, anaknya, kepada raja Daud untuk menyampaikan salam dan mengucapkan selamat kepadanya, karena ia telah berperang melawan Hadadezer dan memukul dia kalah, sebab Hadadezer sering memerangi Tou. Dan Yoram membawa barang-barang perak, emas dan tembaga.

¹⁰Toi sent his son Joram to King David, to ask about his health and to bless him because he had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him, for Hadadezer had often been at war with Toi. And Joram brought with him articles of silver, of gold, and of bronze.

¹¹Juga barang-barang ini dikhususkan raja Daud bagi TUHAN, bersama-sama perak dan emas yang berasal dari segala bangsa yang ditaklukkannya,

¹¹These also King David dedicated to the LORD, together with the silver and gold that he dedicated from all the nations he subdued,

¹²yakni perak dan emas dari orang Aram, dari orang Moab, dari bani Amon, dari orang Filistin, dari orang Amalek, dan dari jarahan yang dirampas dari Hadadezer bin Rehob, raja Zoba.

¹²from Edom, Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, Amalek, and from the spoil of Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

¹³Demikianlah Daud mendapat nama, dan ketika ia pulang, ia menewaskan delapan belas ribu orang Edom di Lembah Asin.

¹³And David made a name for himself when he returned from striking down 18,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt.

¹⁴Lalu ia menempatkan pasukan-pasukan pendudukan di Edom; di seluruh Edom ditempatkannya pasukan-pasukan pendudukan, sehingga seluruh Edom diperbudak oleh Daud. TUHAN memberi kemenangan kepada Daud ke manapun ia pergi berperang.

¹⁴Then he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom he put garrisons, and all the Edomites became David's servants. And the LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.

¹⁵Demikianlah Daud telah memerintah atas seluruh Israel, dan menegakkan keadilan dan kebenaran bagi seluruh bangsanya.

¹⁵So David reigned over all Israel. And David administered justice and equity to all his people.

¹⁶Yoab, anak Zeruya, menjadi panglima; Yosafat bin Ahilud menjadi bendahara negara;

¹⁶Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army, and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder,

¹⁷Zadok bin Ahitub dan Ahimelekh bin Abyatar menjadi imam; Seraya menjadi panitera negara;

¹⁷and Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar were priests, and Seraiah was secretary,

¹⁸Benaya bin Yoyada menjadi panglima orang Kreti dan orang Pleti; dan anak-anak Daud menjadi imam.

¹⁸and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and David's sons were priests.
