2 Samuel 8
Riveduta 1927
1Dopo queste cose, Davide sconfisse i Filistei e li umiliò, e tolse di mano ai Filistei la supremazia che aveano.
2Sconfisse pure i Moabiti: e fattili giacere per terra, li misurò con la corda; ne misurò due corde per farli mettere a morte, e la lunghezza d’una corda per lasciarli in vita. E i Moabiti divennero sudditi e tributari di Davide.
3Davide sconfisse anche Hadadezer, figliuolo di Rehob, re di Tsoba, mentr’egli andava a ristabilire il suo dominio sul fiume Eufrate.
4Davide gli prese millesettecento cavalieri e ventimila pedoni, e tagliò i garetti a tutti i cavalli da tiro, ma riserbò dei cavalli per cento carri.
5E quando i Siri di Damasco vennero per soccorrere Hadadezer, re di Tsoba, Davide ne uccise ventiduemila.
6Poi Davide mise delle guarnigioni nella Siria di Damasco, e i Siri divennero sudditi e tributari di Davide; e l’Eterno rendea vittorioso Davide dovunque egli andava.
7E Davide tolse ai servi di Hadadezer i loro scudi d’oro e li portò a Gerusalemme.
8Il re Davide prese anche una grande quantità di rame a Betah e a Berothai, città di Hadadezer.
9Or quando Toi, re di Hamath, ebbe udito che Davide avea sconfitto tutto l’esercito di Hadadezer,
10mandò al re Davide Joram, suo figliuolo, per salutarlo e per benedirlo perché avea mosso guerra a Hadadezer e l’avea sconfitto (Hadadezer era sempre in guerra con Toi); e Joram portò seco de’ vasi d’argento, dei vasi d’oro e de’ vasi di rame.
11E il re Davide consacrò anche quelli all’Eterno, come avea già consacrato l’argento e l’oro tolto alle nazioni che avea soggiogate:
12ai Siri, ai Moabiti, agli Ammoniti, ai Filistei, agli Amalekiti, e come avea fatto del bottino di Hadadezer, figliuolo di Rehob, re di Tsoba.
13Al ritorno dalla sua vittoria sui Siri, Davide s’acquistò ancor fama, sconfiggendo nella valle del Sale diciottomila Idumei.
14E pose delle guarnigioni in Idumea; ne mise per tutta l’Idumea, e tutti gli Edomiti divennero sudditi di Davide; e l’Eterno rendea vittorioso Davide dovunque egli andava.
15Davide regnò su tutto Israele, facendo ragione e amministrando la giustizia a tutto il suo popolo.
16E Joab, figliuolo di Tseruia, comandava l’esercito; Giosafat, figliuolo di Ahilud, era cancelliere;
17Tsadok, figliuolo di Ahitub, e Ahimelec, figliuolo di Abiathar, erano sacerdoti; Seraia era segretario;
18Benaia, figliuolo di Jehoiada, era capo dei Kerethei e dei Pelethei, e i figliuoli di Davide erano ministri di stato.
Reina-Valera 1909
1DESPUÉS de esto aconteció, que David hirió á los Filisteos, y los humilló: y tomó David á Methegamma de mano de los Filisteos.
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.
3Asimismo hirió David á Hadad-ezer hijo de Rehob, rey de Soba, yendo él á extender su término hasta el río de Eufrates.
4Y tomó David de ellos mil y setecientos de á caballo, y veinte mil hombres de á pie; y desjarretó David los caballos de todos los carros, excepto cien carros de ellos que dejó.
5Y vinieron los Siros de Damasco á dar ayuda á Hadad-ezer rey de Soba; y David hirió de los Siros veinte y dos mil hombres.
6Puso luego David guarnición en Siria la de Damasco, y fueron los Siros siervos de David sujetos á tributo. Y Jehová guardó á David donde quiera que fué.
7Y tomó David los escudos de oro que traían los siervos de Hadad-ezer, y llevólos á Jerusalem.
8Asimismo de Beta y de Beeroth, ciudades de Hadad-ezer, tomó el rey David gran copia de metal.
9Entonces oyendo Toi, rey de Hamath, que David había herido todo el ejército de Hadad-ezer,
10Envió Toi á Joram su hijo al rey David, á saludarle pacíficamente y á bendecirle, porque había peleado con Hadad-ezer y lo había vencido: porque Toi era enemigo de Hadad-ezer. Y Joram llevaba en su mano vasos de plata, y vasos de oro, y de metal;
11Los cuales el rey David dedicó á Jehová, con la plata y el oro que tenía dedicado de todas las naciones que había sometido:
12De los Siros, de los Moabitas, de los Ammonitas, de los Filisteos, de los Amalecitas, y del despojo de Hadad-ezer hijo de Rehob, rey de Soba.
13Y ganó David fama cuando, volviendo de la rota de los Siros, hirió diez y ocho mil hombres en el valle de la sal.
14Y puso guarnición en Edom, por toda Edom puso guarnición; y todos los Idumeos fueron siervos de David. Y Jehová guardó á David por donde quiera que fué.
15Y reinó David sobre todo Israel; y hacía David derecho y justicia á todo su pueblo.
16Y Joab hijo de Sarvia era general de su ejército; y Josaphat hijo de Ahilud, canciller;
17Y Sadoc hijo de Ahitud, y Ahimelech hijo de Abiathar, eran sacerdotes; y Seraía era escriba;
18Y Benahía hijo de Joiada, era sobre los Ceretheos y Peletheos; y los hijos de David eran los príncipes.

1And after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them: and David took Metheg-ammah out of the hand of the Philistines.
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.
3David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates.
4And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for an hundred chariots.

7And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8And from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceeding much brass.
9When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,
10Then Toi sent Joram his son unto king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass:
11Which also king David did dedicate unto the LORD, with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all nations which he subdued;
12Of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13And David gat him a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, being eighteen thousand men.
14And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all they of Edom became David’s servants. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
15And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice unto all his people.
16And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
17And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Seraiah was the scribe;
