1 Chronicles 19
1 And it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the sons of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
Kutu pacl tok, Tokosra Nahash lun Ammon el misa, ac Hanun wen natul, el tokosrala.
2 And David said, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me. So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the sons of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
Tokosra David el fahk, “Nga enenu in akkalemye nunak in kawuk pwaye luk nu sel Hanun, oana ke Nahash papa tumal, el tuh oru nu sik.” Ouinge David el supwala mwet utuk kas in fahkak nunak in pakomuta lal ke misa papa tumal ah. Ke elos sun acn Ammon, ac utyak nu yorol Tokosra Hanun,
3 But the rulers of the sons of Ammon said to Hanun, Do thou think that David honors thy father, in that he has sent comforters to thee? Have not his servants come to thee to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
mwet kol lun mwet Ammon elos fahk nu sin tokosra, “Ku kom nunku mu David el akfulatye papa tomom, pa sis el supwama mwet inge in fahkak kas in pakomuta lal nu sum? Sutuu na sutuu! El supwalosme in tuh tuni siti uh, elan mau ku in eisla sesr!”
4 So Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
Hanun el sruokya mwet utuk kas lal David, ac resaela alut lalos, ac wotela nuknuk lalos ah ke finyepalos, ac supwalosla.
5 And they came and informed David about the men. And he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Remain at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
Elos arulana mwekin in folokla nu yen selos. Ke David el lohng ke ma sikyak ah, el sapla nu yorolos tuh elos in mutana Jericho ac tia foloko nwe ke alut lalos ah kapak.
6 And when the sons of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the sons of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Arammaacah, and out of Zobah.
Tokosra Hanun ac mwet Ammon elos akilen lah elos sifacna oru tuh David elan mwet lokoalok lac lalos. Ke ma inge elos sang apkuran in oalngoul tausin paun in silver nu sin mwet in acn Mesopotamia Lucng, oayapa mwet Maacah ac Zobah in acn Syria, tuh elos in moli chariot ac mwet in utuk chariot.
7 So they hired for them thirty-two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah and his people, who came and encamped before Medeba. And the sons of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
Oasr chariot tolngoul luo tausin elos srukak, ac mwet mweun lal Tokosra Maacah elos tuku ac tulokunak nien aktuktuk lalos apkuran nu Medeba. Mwet Ammon elos wi pac tuku liki siti nukewa selos, ac elos akola in mweun.
8 And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of the mighty men.
Ke David el lohng ma sikyak inge, el supwalla Joab ac mwet mweun lal nukewa.
9 And the sons of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the gate of the city. And the kings that came were by themselves in the field.
Mwet Ammon elos fahsr som nu ke nien utyak nu Rabbah, siti fulat lalos, ac tu na akola we. Na tokosra su tuku in welulos ke mweun, elos som nu yen turangang ac akola pac we.
10 Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him in front and behind, he chose from all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
Joab el liye tuh mwet lokoalok lalos ac mweunelos meet ah me ac tokolos me. Ouinge el sulela mwet ma wo emeet ke mweun sin mwet Israel, ac oakelosi in lain mwet Syria.
11 And the rest of the company he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother, and they put themselves in array against the sons of Ammon.
Na el sang Abishai, tamulel lal, in kol mwet mweun lula nukewa, ac Abishai el oakelosi in lain mwet Ammon.
12 And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shall help me, but if the sons of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.
Joab el fahk nu sel, “Kom fin liye tuh mwet Syria ac kutangyula, na kom tuku kasreyu, ac nga fin liye tuh mwet Ammon ac kutangkomla, na nga ac fahsrot kasrekom.
13 Be of good courage, and let us act the man for our people, and for the cities of our God. And Jehovah do that which seems good to him.
Kom in ku ac pulaik! Lela kut in sang kuiyasr nufon in mweun ke mwet lasr ac ke siti nukewa lun God lasr. Finsrak tuh in fahsr ou ma lungse lun LEUM GOD!”
14 So Joab and the company that were with him drew near before the Syrians to the battle, and they fled before him.
Joab ac mwet lal fahsryak nu meet in mweun, ac mwet Syria elos kaing.
15 And when the sons of Ammon saw that the Syrians had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
Ke mwet Ammon elos liye lah mwet Syria kaing, na elos kaingkunul Abishai, ac foloki nu in siti uh. Na Joab el folokla nu Jerusalem.
16 And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the River, with Shophach the captain of the army of Hadarezer at their head.
Mwet Syria elos akilen lah mwet Israel elos kutangulosla, na elos use un mwet mweun Syria su muta layen kutulap in Infacl Euphrates, ac eisalosyang nu inpaol Shobach, captain lun un mwet mweun lal Tokosra Hadadezer lun Zobah.
17 And it was told David. And he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.
Ke David el lohngak ma inge, el orani mwet mweun lun Israel ac tupalla Infacl Jordan, ac oakelosi in lain mwet Syria. Mweun uh srola,
18 And the Syrians fled before Israel. And David killed of the Syrians the men of seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the army.
na mwet Israel elos ukwauk mwet mweun Syria. David ac mwet lal ah uniya mwet itkosr tausin su kasrusr ke chariot, ac angngaul tausin mwet kasrusr fin horse. Elos oayapa unilya Shobach, captain lun mwet mweun Syria ah.
19 And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and served him, neither would the Syrians help the sons of Ammon any more.
Ke tokosra kewa su orekma nu sel Hadadezer elos akilen lah kutangyukla elos sin mwet Israel, na elos orek misla yorol David, ac mutawauk in orekma nu sel. Mwet Syria elos tia sifil lungse kasru mwet Ammon.
