1 Crónicas 18

1Después de esto derrotó David a los filisteos y los sojuzgó, arrebatando a Gat y sus aldeas de las manos de los filisteos.

2Derrotó también a Moab; y los moabitas se sometieron a David y le pagaron tributo.

3Asimismo venció David a Hadaréser, rey de Sobá, en Hamat, cuando este iba a establecer su dominio sobre el río Éufrates.

4David le quitó mil carros, siete mil soldados de a caballo y veinte mil hombres de a pie; y desjarretó David todos los tiros de carro, dejando de ellos solamente para cien carros.

5Cuando los sirios de Damasco vinieron en socorro de Hadaréser, rey de Sobá, derrotó David a veinte y dos mil sirios.

6David puso (guarniciones) en la Siria de Damasco, y los sirios se sometieron a David y le pagaron tributo. Yahvé asistía a David dondequiera que iba.

7David tomó, además, los escudos de oro con que los siervos de Hadaréser se protegían y los llevó a Jerusalén.

8En Tibat y Cun, ciudades de Hadaréser, se apoderó David de una gran cantidad de bronce, con el cual hizo Salomón el mar de bronce, las columnas y los utensilios de bronce.

9Cuando Tou, rey de Hamat, supo que David había derrotado a todo el ejército de Hadaréser, rey de Sobá,

10envió a Hadoram, su hijo, al rey David para saludarle y para bendecirle por haber atacado a Hadaréser, pues Tou era enemigo de Hadaréser; y (trajo Hadoram) toda clase de objetos de oro, de plata y de bronce,

11que el rey David consagró a Yahvé, además de la plata y el oro que había tomado a todas las naciones: a Edom, a Moab, a los hijos de Ammón, a los filisteos y a los amalecitas.

12Abisai, hijo de Sarvia, derrotó en el Valle de la Sal diez y ocho mil idumeos,

13y puso guarniciones en Edom; y todos los idumeos quedaron sometidos a David. Así asistió Yahvé a David en todas sus empresas.

14David reinó sobre todo Israel, y hacía juicio y justicia a todo el pueblo.

15Joab, hijo de Sarvia, estaba al frente del ejército; Josafat, hijo de Ahilud, era cronista;

16Sadoc, hijo de Ahitob, y Abimelec, hijo de Abiatar, eran sacerdotes; Savsa era secretario;

17Banaías, hijo de Joiadá, mandaba a los cereteos y feleteos; y los hijos de David eran los primeros junto al rey.

1Factum est autem post hæc, ut percuteret David Philisthiim, et humiliaret eos, et tolleret Geth et filias ejus de manu Philisthiim,

2percuteretque Moab, et fierent Moabitæ servi David, offerentes ei munera.

3Eo tempore percussit David etiam Adarezer regem Soba regionis Hemath, quando perrexit ut dilataret imperium suum usque ad flumen Euphraten.

4Cepit ergo David mille quadrigas ejus, et septem millia equitum, ac viginti millia virorum peditum, subnervavitque omnes equos curruum, exceptis centum quadrigis, quas reservavit sibi.

5Supervenit autem et Syrus Damascenus, ut auxilium præberet Adarezer regi Soba: sed et hujus percussit David viginti duo millia virorum.

6Et posuit milites in Damasco, ut Syria quoque serviret sibi, et offerret munera. Adjuvitque eum Dominus in cunctis ad quæ perrexerat.

7Tulit quoque David pharetras aureas, quas habuerant servi Adarezer, et attulit eas in Jerusalem.

8Necnon de Thebath et Chun urbibus Adarezer æris plurimum, de quo fecit Salomon mare æneum, et columnas, et vasa ænea.

9Quod cum audisset Thou rex Hemath, percussisse videlicet David omnem exercitum Adarezer regis Soba,

10misit Adoram filium suum ad regem David, ut postularet ab eo pacem, et congratularetur ei quod percussisset et expugnasset Adarezer: adversarius quippe erat Thou Adarezer.

11Sed et omnia vasa aurea, et argentea, et ænea consecravit David rex Domino, cum argento et auro quod tulerat ex universis gentibus, tam de Idumæa, et Moab, et filiis Ammon, quam de Philisthiim et Amalec.

12Abisai vero filius Sarviæ percussit Edom in valle Salinarum, decem et octo millia:

13et constituit in Edom præsidium, ut serviret Idumæa David: salvavitque Dominus David in cunctis ad quæ perrexerat.

14Regnavit ergo David super universum Israël, et faciebat judicium atque justitiam cuncto populo suo.

15Porro Joab filius Sarviæ erat super exercitum, et Josaphat filius Ahilud a commentariis:

16Sadoc autem filius Achitob, et Ahimelech filius Abiathar, sacerdotes: et Susa, scriba:

17Banaias quoque filius Jojadæ super legiones Cerethi et Phelethi: porro filii David, primi ad manum regis.

1And it came to pass after this, that David defeated the Philistines, and humbled them, and took away Geth, and her daughters out of the hands of the Philistines,

2And he defeated Moab, and the Moabites were made David’s servants, and brought him gifts.

3At that time David defeated also Adarezer king of Soba of the land of Hemath, when he went to extend his dominions as far as the river Euphrates.

4And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen, and he houghed all the chariot horses, only a hundred chariots, which he reserved for himself.

5And the Syrians of Damascus came also to help Adarezer king of Soba: and David slew of them likewise two and twenty thousand men.

6And he put a garrison in Damascus, that Syria also should serve him, and bring gifts. And the Lord assisted him in all things to which he went.

7And David took the golden quivers which the servants of Adarezer had, and he brought them to Jerusalem.

8Likewise out of Thebath and Chun, cities of Adarezer, he brought very much brass, of which Solomon made the brazen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.

9Now when Thou king of Hemath heard that David had defeated all the army of Adarezer king of Soba,

10He sent Adoram his son to king David, to desire peace of him, and to congratulate him that he had defeated and overthrown Adarezer: for Thou was an enemy to Adarezer.

11And all the vessels of gold, and silver, and brass king David consecrated to the Lord, with the silver and gold which he had taken from all the nations, as well from Edom, and from Moab, and from the sons of Ammon, as from the Philistines, and from Amalec.

12And Abisai the son of Sarvia slew of the Edomites in the vale of the saltpits, eighteen thousand:

13And he put a garrison in Edom, that Edom should serve David: and the Lord preserved David in all things to which he went.

14So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people.

15And Joab the son of Sarvia was over the army, and Josaphat the son of Ahilud recorder.

16And Sadoc the son of Achitob, and Achimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests: and Susa, scribe.

17And Banaias the son of Joiada was over the bands of the Cerethi, and the Phelethi: and the sons of David were chief about the king.
