David’s Victories

1In the course of time, David defeated the Philistines and subdued them, and he took Gath and its surrounding villages from the control of the Philistines.

2David also defeated the Moabites, and they became subject to him and brought him tribute.

3Moreover, David defeated Hadadezer king of Zobah, in the vicinity of Hamath, when he went to set up his monument at18:3 Or to restore his control over the Euphrates River. 4David captured a thousand of his chariots, seven thousand charioteers and twenty thousand foot soldiers. He hamstrung all but a hundred of the chariot horses.

5When the Arameans of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck down twenty-two thousand of them. 6He put garrisons in the Aramean kingdom of Damascus, and the Arameans became subject to him and brought him tribute. The Lord gave David victory wherever he went.

7David took the gold shields carried by the officers of Hadadezer and brought them to Jerusalem. 8From Tebah18:8 Hebrew Tibhath, a variant of Tebah and Kun, towns that belonged to Hadadezer, David took a great quantity of bronze, which Solomon used to make the bronze Sea, the pillars and various bronze articles.

9When Tou king of Hamath heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer king of Zobah, 10he sent his son Hadoram to King David to greet him and congratulate him on his victory in battle over Hadadezer, who had been at war with Tou. Hadoram brought all kinds of articles of gold, of silver and of bronze.

11King David dedicated these articles to the Lord, as he had done with the silver and gold he had taken from all these nations: Edom and Moab, the Ammonites and the Philistines, and Amalek.

12Abishai son of Zeruiah struck down eighteen thousand Edomites in the Valley of Salt. 13He put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became subject to David. The Lord gave David victory wherever he went.

David’s Officials

14David reigned over all Israel, doing what was just and right for all his people. 15Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was recorder; 16Zadok son of Ahitub and Ahimelek18:16 Some Hebrew manuscripts, Vulgate and Syriac (see also 2 Samuel 8:17); most Hebrew manuscripts Abimelek son of Abiathar were priests; Shavsha was secretary; 17Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the Kerethites and Pelethites; and David’s sons were chief officials at the king’s side.

Slovo na cestu

1 Letopisu 18:1-17

1Stalo se potom, že porazil David Filistinské, a zemdlil je, a vzal Gát i vesnice jeho z ruky Filistinských. 2Porazil také i Moábské, a učiněni jsou Moábští služebníci Davidovi, a dávali jemu plat. 3Porazil též David Hadarezera krále Soba v Emat, když byl vytáhl, aby opanoval řeku Eufrates. 4A pobral mu David tisíc vozů, a sedm tisíc jízdných, a dvadceti tisíc mužů pěších, a zpodřezoval David žily všechněm koňům vozníkům. Toliko zanechal z nich ke stu vozům. 5Přitáhli pak byli Syrští od Damašku na pomoc Hadarezerovi králi Soba, ale David porazil z Syrských dvamecítma tisíc mužů. 6Tedy osadil David Syrii Damašskou. I učiněni jsou Syrští služebníci Davidovi, dávajíce plat; nebo zachovával Hospodin Davida, kamž se koli obrátil. 7Pobral také David štíty zlaté, kteréž měli služebníci Hadarezerovi, a přinesl je do Jeruzaléma. 8Z Tibchat též a z Chun, měst Hadarezerových, nabral David mědi velmi mnoho, z kteréž potom slil Šalomoun moře měděné, a sloupy i nádobí měděné. 9A když uslyšel Tohu král Emat, že porazil David všecko vojsko Hadarezera krále Soba, 10Poslal Adorama syna svého k králi Davidovi, aby ho pozdravil přátelsky, a spolu se s ním radoval z toho, že bojoval s Hadarezerem, a porazil ho; (nebo válčil Tohu s Hadarezerem). Kterýžto přinesl všelijaké nádoby zlaté a stříbrné i měděné. 11Ty také obětoval král David Hospodinu s stříbrem a zlatem, kteréhož byl nabral ze všech národů, z Idumejských, z Moábských, z synů Ammon, z Filistinských, i z Amalechitských. 12Abizai také syn Sarvie porazil Idumejských v údolí solnatém osmnácte tisíc. 13Protož i nad Idumejskými postavil stráž, a učiněni jsou všickni Idumejští služebníci Davidovi; nebo zachovával Hospodin Davida, kamž se koli obrátil. 14A tak kraloval David nade vším Izraelem, a činil soud a spravedlnost všemu lidu svému. 15Joáb pak syn Sarvie byl nad vojskem, a Jozafat syn Achiludův byl kancléřem. 16Sádoch také syn Achitobův a Abimelech syn Abiatarův byli kněžími, a Susa byl písařem. 17Banaiáš pak syn Joiadův byl nad Cheretejskými a Peletejskými, a synové Davidovi knížaty při králi.
