Hebrew ויך את־מואב וימדדם בחבל השכב אותם ארצה וימדד שני־חבלים להמית ומלא החבל להחיות ותהי מואב לדוד לעבדים נשאי מנחה׃
Greek και επαταξεν δαυιδ την μωαβ και διεμετρησεν αυτους εν σχοινιοις κοιμισας αυτους επι την γην και εγενετο τα δυο σχοινισματα του θανατωσαι και τα δυο σχοινισματα εζωγρησεν και εγενετο μωαβ τω δαυιδ εις δουλους φεροντας
Latin Et percussit Moab, et mensus est eos funiculo, coæquans terræ : mensus est autem duos funiculos, unum ad occidendum, et unum ad vivificandum : factusque est Moab David serviens sub tributo.
KJV And 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.
