2 Também derrotou os moabitas, e os mediu com cordel, fazendo-os deitar por terra; e mediu dois cordéis para os matar, e um cordel inteiro para os deixar com vida. Ficaram assim os moabitas por servos de Davi, pagando-lhe tributos.

David also defeated the Moabites. He made them lie down on the ground and measured them off with a length of cord. Every two lengths of them were put to death, and the third length was allowed to live. So the Moabites became subject to David and brought him tribute.
