1 Crônicas 18

Diversas vitórias de Davi

1 *2Sm 8.1-18Depois disso, feriu Davi os filisteus, subjugou-os e tomou das mãos deles a Gate e suas aldeias. 2 Também feriu a Moabe; os moabitas tornaram-se servos de Davi e pagavam tributos.

3 Também Davi feriu a Hadadezer, rei de Zobá, até Hamate, quando ia estabelecer o seu domínio junto ao rio Eufrates. 4 Davi tomou-lhe mil carros, e sete mil cavaleiros, e vinte mil homens de pé; Davi jarretou todos os cavalos dos carros, mas reservou deles para cem carros.

5 Tendo vindo os siros de Damasco em socorro de Hadadezer, rei de *1Cr 19.6Zobá, Davi feriu deles vinte e dois mil homens. 6 Então, Davi pôs guarnições em Síria de Damasco; os siros tornaram-se servos de Davi e pagavam tributos. Jeová dava vitória a Davi por onde quer que ia. 7 Davi tomou os escudos de ouro que tinham os servos de Hadadezer e os trouxe para Jerusalém. 8 De Tibate e de Cum, cidades de Hadadezer, tomou Davi muitíssimo bronze, de que Salomão fez o mar de bronze, as colunas e os vasos de bronze.

9 Quando Toú, rei de Hamate, ouviu que Davi tinha ferido todo o exército de Hadadezer, rei de Zobá, 10 enviou seu filho Hadorão ao rei Davi, para o saudar e para o abençoar, por ter pelejado contra Hadadezer e por tê-lo ferido (porque Hadadezer fazia guerra a Toú). Ele trouxe consigo toda sorte de vasos de ouro, de prata e de bronze. 11 A estes também consagrou o rei Davi a Jeová, juntamente com a prata e ouro que tinha levado de todas as nações: de Edom, de Moabe, dos filhos de Amom, dos filisteus e de Amaleque.

12 Além disso, Abisai, filho de Zeruia, feriu dos edomitas dezoito mil no vale do Sal. 13 Pôs guarnições em Edom, e todos os edomitas tornaram-se servos de Davi. Jeová dava vitória a Davi por onde quer que ia.

14 Davi reinou sobre todo o Israel e fazia juízo e justiça a todo o seu povo. 15 *1Cr 11.6Joabe, filho de Zeruia, comandava o exército; Josafá, filho de Ailude, era cronista; 16 Zadoque, filho de Aitube, e Abimeleque, filho de Abiatar, eram sacerdotes; Sausa era secretário; 17 Benaia, filho de Joiada, comandava os quereteus e peleteus; e os filhos de Davi eram os primeiros junto à pessoa do rei.

1 Now after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them, and took Gath and her towns out of the hand of the Philistines. 2 And he smote Moab; and the Moabites became David’s servants, and brought gifts.

3 And David smote Hadarezer king of Zobah unto Hamath, as he went to stablish his dominion by the river Euphrates.*18.3 Hadarezer: or, Hadadezer 4 And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: David also houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them an hundred chariots.*18.4 seven…: or, seven hundred 5 And when the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadarezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.*18.5 Damascus: Heb. Darmesek 6 Then David put garrisons in Syria-damascus; and the Syrians became David’s servants, and brought gifts. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went. 7 And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadarezer, and brought them to Jerusalem. 8 Likewise from Tibhath, and from Chun, cities of Hadarezer, brought David very much brass, wherewith Solomon made the brasen sea, and the pillars, and the vessels of brass.*18.8 Tibhath…: called in the book of Samuel Betah, and Berothai

9 Now when Tou king of Hamath heard how David had smitten all the host of Hadarezer king of Zobah;*18.9 Tou: also called, Toi 10 He sent Hadoram his son to king David, to enquire of his welfare, and to congratulate him, because he had fought against Hadarezer, and smitten him; (for Hadarezer had war with Tou;) and with him all manner of vessels of gold and silver and brass.*18.10 Hadoram: also called, Joram*18.10 to enquire…: or, to salute*18.10 to congratulate: Heb. to bless*18.10 had war: Heb. was the man of wars

11 Them also king David dedicated unto the LORD, with the silver and the gold that he brought from all these nations; from Edom, and from Moab, and from the children of Ammon, and from the Philistines, and from Amalek. 12 Moreover Abishai the son of Zeruiah slew of the Edomites in the valley of salt eighteen thousand.*18.12 Abishai: Heb. Abshai

13 And he put garrisons in Edom; and all the Edomites became David’s servants. Thus the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.

14 So David reigned over all Israel, and executed judgment and justice among all his people. 15 And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, recorder.*18.15 recorder: or, remembrancer 16 And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Abimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Shavsha was scribe;*18.16 Abimelech: also called, Ahimelech*18.16 Shavsha: also called Seraiah or Shisha 17 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and the sons of David were chief about the king.*18.17 about…: Heb. at the hand of the king
