2 Samuel 10
1 Now after this, death came to the king of the children of Ammon, and Hanun, his son, became king in his place.
Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia maty ny mpanjakan’ ny taranak’ i Amona, ka Hanona zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
2 And David said, I will be a friend to Hanun, the son of Nahash, as his father was a friend to me. So David sent his servants, to give him words of comfort on account of his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.
Ary hoy Davida: Hanisy soa an’ i Hanona, zanak’ i Nahasy, aho, toy ny soa nataon-drainy tamiko. Ary Davida naniraka ny mpanompony hitsapa alahelo azy ny amin-drainy. Ary tonga tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny taranak’ i Amona ny mpanompon’ i Davida.
3 But the chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Does it seem to you that David is honouring your father by sending comforters to you? has he not sent his servants to go through the town and make secret observation of it, and overcome it?
Ary hoy ireo mpanapaka ny taranak’ i Amona tamin’ i Hanona tompony: Moa ataonao ho fanajana ny rainao no anirahan’ i Davida hitsapa alahelo anao? Fa tsy hizaha ny tanàna sy hisafo azy ary handrava azy va no nanirahan’ i Davida ireo mpanompony ireo hankatỳ aminao?
4 So Hanun took David's servants, and after cutting off half the hair on their chins, and cutting off the skirts of their robes up to the middle, he sent them away.
Dia nosamborin’ i Hanona ny mpanompon’ i Davida, ka noharatany ny ila-somony, sady nofolonany hatreo amin’ ny foto-peny ny akanjony, ka dia nalefany hody izy.
5 When David had news of it, he sent men out with the purpose of meeting them on their way, for the men were greatly shamed: and the king said, Go to Jericho till your hair is long again, and then come back.
Ary dia nisy lasa nanambara izany tamin’ i Davida, ary izy naniraka hitsena azy, fa afa-baraka loatra ireo lehilahy ireo; ka dia hoy ny tenin’ ny mpanjaka: Mitoera any Jeriko aloha ambara-panirin’ ny somotrareo, vao mody ianareo.
6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves hated by David, they sent to the Aramaeans of Beth-rehob and Zobah, and got for payment twenty thousand footmen, and they got from the king of Maacah a thousand men, and from Tob twelve thousand.
Ary nony hitan’ ny taranak’ i Amona fa efa mangidy hoditra eo anatrehan’ i Davida izy, dia naniraka nanakarama ny Syriana any Beti-rehoba sy ny Syriana any Zoba izy, dia miaramila an-tongotra roa alina, ary tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Maka, olona arivo lahy, ary tamin’ ny olona tany Toba, roa arivo sy iray alina.
7 And hearing of this, David sent Joab and all the army and the best fighting-men.
Ary nony ren’ i Davida izany, dia naniraka an’ i Joaba sy ny miaramila rehetra izy, dia ny lehilahy mahery.
8 And the children of Ammon came out and put their forces in position at the way into the town: and the Aramaeans of Zobah and of Rehob, with the men of Tob and Maacah, were by themselves in the field.
Ary ny taranak’ i Amona nivoaka ka nilahatra hiady teo anoloan’ ny vavahady; ary ny Syriana avy any Zoba sy Rehoba sy ny olona avy tany Toba ary Maka nitokana teny an-tsaha kosa.
9 Now when Joab saw that their forces were in position against him in front and at his back, he took the best of the men of Israel and put them in line against the Aramaeans;
Ary rehefa hitan’ i Joaba fa teo anoloany sady teo ivohony ny fahavalo, dia nifidy olona tamin’ ireo voafantina tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra izy, ka nalahany hiady tamin’ ny Syriana.
10 And the rest of the people he put in position against the children of Ammon, with Abishai, his brother, at their head.
Ary ny olona sisa kosa nomeny ho entin’ i Abisay rahalahiny halahany hiady amin’ ny taranak’ i Amona.
11 And he said, If the Aramaeans are stronger and get the better of me, then you are to come to my help; but if the children of Ammon get the better of you, I will come to your help.
Ary hoy izy: Raha tsy tohako ny Syriana, dia vonjeo aho; fa raha tsy tohanao kosa ny taranak’ i Amona, dia hovonjeko ianao.
12 Take heart, and let us be strong for our people and for the towns of our God, and may the Lord do what seems good to him.
Mahereza ary, ka aoka hitombandahy isika ho an’ ny firenentsika sy ny tanànan’ Andriamanitsika; ary aoka Jehovah hanao izay sitrapony.
13 Then Joab and the people with him went forward to the fight against the Aramaeans, and they went in flight before him.
Ary Joaba sy ny olona nanaraka azy nandroso hiady amin’ ny Syriana; ary dia nandositra niala teo anoloany ireo.
14 And when the children of Ammon saw the flight of the Aramaeans, they themselves went in flight from Abishai, and came into the town. So Joab went back from fighting the children of Ammon and came to Jerusalem.
Ary nony hitan’ ny taranak’ i Amona fa nandositra ny Syriana, dia mba nandositra koa izy niala teo anoloan’ i Abisay ka niditra tao an-tanàna. Ary Joaba niverina avy namely ny taranak’ i Amona ka tonga tany Jerosalema.
15 And when the Aramaeans saw that Israel had overcome them, they got themselves together.
Ary nony hitan’ ny Syriana fa resy teo anoloan’ ny Isiraely izy, dia nivory izy.
16 And Hadadezer sent for the Aramaeans who were on the other side of the River: and they came to Helam, with Shobach, the captain of Hadadezer's army, at their head.
Ary Hadadezera naniraka naka ny Syriana izay tany an-dafin’ ny Ony; ary dia tonga tany Helama izy; ary Sobaka, komandin’ ny miaramilan’ i Hadadezera, no nitarika azy.
17 And word of this was given to David: and he got all Israel together and went over Jordan and came to Helam. And the Aramaeans put their forces in position against David, and made an attack on him.
Ary nony nambara tamin’ i Davida izany, dia nampamory ny Isiraely rehetra izy ka lasa nita an’ i Jordana, dia tonga tany Helama. Ary nilahatra ny Syriana hiady amin’ i Davida, ka dia rafitra ny ady.
18 And the Aramaeans went in flight before Israel; and David put to the sword the men of seven hundred Aramaean war-carriages and forty thousand footmen, and Shobach, the captain of the army, was wounded, and came to his death there.
Ary vaky nandositra teo anoloan’ ny Isiraely ny Syriana, ka nahafaty ny tao an-kalesy fiton-jato sy ny an-tsoavaly efatra alina tamin’ ny Syriana Davida sady namely an’ i Sobaka koa, ilay komandin’ ny miaramila, ka nahafaty azy teo.
19 And when all the kings who were servants of Hadadezer saw that they were overcome by Israel, they made peace with Israel and became their servants. So the Aramaeans, in fear, gave no more help to the children of Ammon.
Ary nony hitan’ ny mpanjaka rehetra izay nanoa an’ i Hadadezera fa resy teo anoloan’ ny Isiraely izy, dia nanao fihavanana tamin’ ny Isiraely izy ireo ka nanompo azy. Dia natahotra ny Syriana, ka tsy nety namonjy ny taranak’ i Amona intsony.
