2 Samuel 8

Bible David Martin 1744

2Il battit aussi les Moabites, et les mesura au cordeau, les faisant coucher par terre ; et il en mesura deux cordeaux pour les faire mourir, et un plein cordeau pour leur sauver la vie ; et le pays des Moabites fut à David sous cette condition, qu’ils lui seraient sujets et tributaires.

Reina-Valera 1909

2Hirió también á los de Moab, y midiólos con cordel, haciéndolos echar por tierra; y midió con dos cordeles para muerte, y un cordel entero para vida; y fueron los Moabitas siervos debajo de tributo.

King James Version

2And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the ground; even with two lines measured he to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And so the Moabites became David’s servants, and brought gifts.

World English Bible

2He defeated Moab, and measured them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground; and he measured two lines to put to death, and one full line to keep alive. The Moabites became servants to David, and brought tribute.
