2 Samuelova 10
1 Stalo se také potom, že umřel král Ammonitský, a kraloval Chanun syn jeho po něm.
And it came to pass after this that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
2 I řekl David: Učiním milosrdenství s Chanunem synem Náhasovým, jakož otec jeho učinil milosrdenství nade mnou. Tedy poslal David, aby ho potěšil skrze služebníky své pro otce jeho. I přišli služebníci Davidovi do země Ammonitských.
And David said, I will shew kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.
3 I řekla knížata Ammonitská k Chanunovi, pánu svému: Cožť se zdá, že David činí poctivost otci tvému, že poslal k tobě, kteříž by tě potěšili? Zdaliž ne proto, aby shlédl město a vyšpehoval je, a potom je podvrátil, poslal David služebníky své k tobě?
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Is it, in thine eyes, to honour thy father that David has sent comforters to thee? Is it not to search the city and to spy it out, and to overthrow it, that David has sent his servants to thee?
4 A tak Chanun vzav služebníky Davidovy, oholil každému půl brady, a zustřihoval roucha jejich až do polovice, totiž až do zadků jejich, a propustil je.
And Hanun took David's servants, and had the one half of their beards shaved off, and their raiment cut off in the midst, as far as their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 To když oznámili Davidovi, poslal proti nim, (nebo muži ti zohaveni byli velice, ) a řekl jim král: Pobuďte v Jerichu, dokudž neobrostou brady vaše, potom se navrátíte.
And they told [it] to David; and he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Abide at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
6 Vidouce pak Ammonitští, že se zošklivili Davidovi, poslavše, najali ze mzdy z Syrie z domu Rohob, a z Syrie Soba dvadcet tisíců pěších, a od krále Maacha tisíc mužů, a od Istoba dvanácte tisíc mužů.
And the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David; and the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth-Rehob, and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah [with] a thousand men, and the men of Tob twelve thousand men.
7 Což uslyšev David, poslal Joába se vším vojskem udatných.
And David heard [of it], and he sent Joab, and all the host, the mighty men.
8 A tak vytáhše Ammonitští, šikovali se k boji u brány, Syrští také, Soba a Rohob, a Istob i Maacha zvláště byli na poli.
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate; and the Syrians of Zoba and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the field.
9 A protož vida Joáb proti sobě sšikovaný boj s předu i s zadu, vybrav některé ze všech výborných Izraelských, sšikoval je také proti Syrským.
And Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind; and he chose out of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians;
10 Ostatek pak lidu dal pod správu Abizai bratra svého, a sšikoval jej proti Ammonitským.
and the rest of the people he gave into the hand of Abishai his brother that he might array them against the children of Ammon.
11 A řekl: Jestliže Syrští budou silnější mne, přispěješ mi na pomoc; jestliže pak Ammonitští silnější budou tebe, také přispěji, abych pomohl tobě.
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me; and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will come and help thee.
12 Posiliž se, a buďme udatní, bojujíce za lid náš a za města Boha našeho, Hospodin pak učiní, což se jemu dobře líbiti bude.
Be strong, and let us shew ourselves valiant for our people and for the cities of our God; and Jehovah do what is good in his sight.
13 I přistoupil Joáb s lidem svým k bitvě proti Syrským, a oni utekli před ním.
And Joab drew near, and the people that were with him, unto the battle against the Syrians; and they fled before him.
14 Tedy Ammonitští vidouce, že utíkají Syrští, utekli i oni před Abizai a vešli do města. I navrátil se Joáb od Ammonitských a přišel do Jeruzaléma.
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, they fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. And Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
15 Ale Syrští vidouce, že by poraženi byli od Izraele, sebrali se vespolek.
And when the Syrians saw that they were routed before Israel, they gathered themselves together.
16 Poslal také Hadarezer a vyvedl Syrské, kteříž bydlejí za řekou, a přišli k Helam; Sobach pak, hejtman vojska Hadarezerova, vedl je.
And Hadarezer sent, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river; and they came to Helam; and Shobach the captain of the host of Hadarezer [went] before them.
17 I oznámeno to Davidovi. Kterýžto shromáždiv všecken lid Izraelský, přepravil se přes Jordán, a přitáhli k Helam. I sšikovali se Syrští proti Davidovi, a bojovali proti němu.
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Syrians set themselves in array against David, and fought with him.
18 Tedy utekli Syrští před Izraelem, a porazil David z Syrských sedm set vozů a čtyřidceti tisíc jezdců. Sobacha také hejtmana vojska toho ranil, i umřel tu.
And the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven hundred [in] chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and smote Shobach the captain of their host, who died there.
19 Když pak viděli všickni králové, kteříž byli při Hadarezerovi, že jsou poraženi od Izraele, vešli v pokoj s Izraelem a sloužili jemu. A nesměli již více Syrští táhnouti na pomoc Ammonitským.
And all the kings that were servants to Hadarezer saw that they were routed before Israel, and they made peace with Israel, and served them. And the Syrians feared to help the children of Ammon any more.
