David subdues the Philistines and defeats Moab

다윗이 블레셋 사람을 쳐서 항복 받고 모압을 침

2 Samuel 8:1–2: after this, David strikes the Philistines and subdues them; and David takes the bridle of the mother city out of the hand of the Philistines. He defeats Moab, and measures them with the line, making them to lie down on the ground; and he measures two lines to put to death, and one full line to keep alive. The Moabites become servants to David, and bring tribute. Where WEB has “the bridle of the mother city”, the Korean Revised Version names 메덱암마 (8:1); it names David at 8:2, where WEB has “He”.

  • At 2 Samuel 8:1 the Korean Revised Version reads 이 후에 다윗이 블레셋 사람을 쳐서 항복 받고 블레셋 사람의 손에서 메덱암마를 빼앗으니라, giving what David took out of the hand of the Philistines a name, 메덱암마.

  • 1 Chronicles 18:1 says in both editions that David took Gath and its towns out of the hand of the Philistines: “After this, David defeated the Philistines and subdued them, and took Gath and its towns out of the hand of the Philistines” (the Korean Revised Version 이 후에 다윗이 블레셋 사람을 쳐서 항복받고 블레셋 사람의 손에서 가드와 그 동네를 빼앗고).

    AI-assisted comparison with the cited narrative; not independent historical verification.

At 2 Samuel 8:1 the Korean Revised Version says that David took 메덱암마 out of the hand of the Philistines, giving it a name, and WEB says that David took “the bridle of the mother city”, giving no name. This collection gives 메덱암마 no entry, records both editions’ words in the event, and does not decide which reading is right.
