2 He 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.

3 David also struck Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his dominion at the River.

4 David took from him one thousand and seven hundred horsemen and twenty thousand footmen. David hamstrung the chariot horses, but reserved enough of them for one hundred chariots.

5 When the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David struck twenty two thousand men of the Syrians.

6 Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought tribute. The LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.

9 When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had struck all the army of Hadadezer,
David mah Hadadezer ih misatuh kaminawk pazawk boih boeh, tiah Hamath siangpahrang Toi mah thaih naah,
10 then Toi sent Joram his son to King David to greet him and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and struck him; for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. Joram brought with him vessels of silver, vessels of gold, and vessels of bronze.
Toi loe angmah ih misa ah kaom, Hadadezer to pazawk pongah, anghoe moe, anih to bansin hanah, a capa Joram to siangpahrang David khaeah patoeh; Joram mah anih hanah sui, phoisa, sum kamling hoiah sak ih laom sabaenawk to sin pae;
11 King David also dedicated these to the LORD, with the silver and gold that he dedicated of all the nations which he subdued—
David siangpahrang loe to laom sabaenawk to Angraeng khaeah paek; to pacoengah a pazawk ih prae thung ih, sui hoi phoisanawk doeh Angraeng khaeah paek;
12 of Syria, of Moab, of the children of Ammon, of the Philistines, of Amalek, and of the plunder of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
Syria hoi Moab, Ammon kaminawk, Philistinnawk hoi Amalek kaminawk; Zobah siangpahrang, Rehob capa Hadadezer khae hoi lomh ih hmuennawk doeh a paek boih.
13 David earned a reputation when he returned from striking down eighteen thousand men of the Syrians in the Valley of Salt.
Paloi azawn ah Syria kaminawk sang hatlai tazetto hum pacoengah, David loe paroeai ahmin amthang.
14 He put garrisons in Edom. Throughout all Edom, he put garrisons, and all the Edomites became servants to David. The LORD gave victory to David wherever he went.
