撒母耳记下 8
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
大卫击败非利士人与摩押人(A)
8 这事以后，大卫攻打非利士人，制伏了他们。大卫从非利士人手中取得了京城的控制权。 2 他又击败摩押人，使他们躺在地上，用绳子量他们，把量两绳的杀死，让量一绳的存活。这样，摩押人就臣服大卫，给他进贡。
击败琐巴人(B)
3 琐巴王利合的儿子哈大底谢，往幼发拉底河去要夺回他统治这河的势力的时候，大卫就攻打他。 4 大卫从他那里掳获了战车一千辆，骑兵七千（《马索拉文本》作“骑兵一千七百”，现按《七十士译本》翻译；参《死海古卷》和代上18:4），步兵二万。大卫把所有战车的马的蹄筋都砍断，只留下一百辆战车的马（或译：“大卫毁坏了所有战车，只留下一百辆战车”）。
击败亚兰人(C)
5 大马士革的亚兰人来协助琐巴王哈大底谢，大卫就击杀了亚兰人二万二千。 6 于是大卫在大马士革的亚兰地驻军。这样亚兰人就臣服大卫，给他进贡。大卫无论到甚么地方去，耶和华都使他得胜。 7 大卫夺取了哈大底谢臣仆所拿的金盾牌，带回耶路撒冷。 8 大卫王又从哈大底谢的两座城比他和比罗他夺取了大量的铜。
9 哈马王陀以听见大卫打败了哈大底谢的全军， 10 就差派他的儿子约兰去见大卫王，向他问安，祝贺他，因为大卫和哈大底谢争战，竟击败了他。原来陀以常常与哈大底谢争战。约兰手里还带着一些银器、金器和铜器。 11 大卫王也把这些器皿，连同他从他征服的各国得来的金银都一起分别为圣，献给耶和华。 12 就是从以东、摩押、亚扪人、非利士人、亚玛力人所得来的，以及从琐巴王利合的儿子哈大底谢获得的战利品。
击败以东人(D)
13 大卫在盐谷击杀了一万八千以东人回来以后，就大有名声。 14 他又在以东设立防军；他在以东各地都设立防军，所有以东人就都臣服大卫。大卫无论到甚么地方去，耶和华都使他得胜。
大卫的重要臣仆(E)
15 大卫作王统治全以色列，以公平和正义对待所有的人。 16 洗鲁雅的儿子约押作军队的统帅，亚希律的儿子约沙法作史官， 17 亚希突的儿子撒督和亚比亚他的儿子亚希米勒作祭司长，西莱雅作书记， 18 耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅统管基利提人和比利提人；大卫的众子都作领袖。

David’s Victories
8 After this, David defeated the Philistines,(A) subdued them, and took Metheg-ammah[a] from Philistine control.[b](B) 2 He also defeated the Moabites, and after making them lie down on the ground, he measured them off with a cord. He measured every two cord lengths of those to be put to death and one length of those to be kept alive. So the Moabites became David’s subjects and brought tribute.(C)
3 David also defeated Hadadezer(D) son of Rehob, king of Zobah, who went to restore his control at the Euphrates River. 4 David captured 1,700 horsemen[c] and 20,000 foot soldiers from him, and he hamstrung all the horses(E) and kept 100 chariots.[d]
5 When the Arameans of Damascus(F) came to assist King Hadadezer of Zobah, David struck down 22,000 Aramean men. 6 Then he placed garrisons in Aram of Damascus, and the Arameans became David’s subjects and brought tribute. The Lord made David victorious wherever he went.(G)
7 David took the gold shields of Hadadezer’s officers and brought them to Jerusalem.(H) 8 King David also took huge quantities of bronze from Betah[e] and Berothai, Hadadezer’s cities.
9 When King Toi of Hamath(I) heard that David had defeated the entire army of Hadadezer, 10 he sent his son Joram to King David to greet him and to congratulate him because David had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him, for Toi and Hadadezer had fought many wars. Joram had items of silver, gold, and bronze with him. 11 King David also dedicated these to the Lord, along with the silver and gold he had dedicated from all the nations he had subdued(J)— 12 from Edom,[f] Moab, the Ammonites, the Philistines, the Amalekites, and the spoil of Hadadezer son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 David made a reputation for himself when he returned from striking down 18,000 Edomites[g] in the Valley of Salt.[h](K) 14 He placed garrisons throughout Edom, and all the Edomites were subject to David.(L) The Lord made David victorious wherever he went.
15 So David reigned over all Israel, administering justice and righteousness for all his people.
16 Joab son of Zeruiah was over the army;
Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was court historian;
17 Zadok son of Ahitub
and Ahimelech son of Abiathar were priests;
Seraiah was court secretary;
18 Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over
the Cherethites and the Pelethites;(M)
and David’s sons were chief officials.[i]
