Kings II 10
1 And it came to pass after this that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Annon his son reigned in his stead.
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 show mercy to Annon the son of Naas, as his father dealt mercifully with me. And David sent to comfort him concerning his father by the hand of his servants; and the servants of David 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 And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Annon their lord, [Is it] to honour your father before you that David has sent comforters to you? Has not David rather sent his servants to you that they should search the city, and spy it out and examine 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 And Annon took the servants of David, and shaved their beards, and cut off their garments in the midst as far as their haunches, and 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 And they brought David word concerning the men; and he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly dishonoured: and the king said, Remain in Jericho till your beards have grown, and [then] you shall return.
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 the children of Ammon saw that the people of David were ashamed; and the children of Ammon sent, and hired the Syrians of Baethraam, and the Syrians of Suba, and Roob, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Amalec with a thousand men, and Istob with twelve thousand men.
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 David heard, and sent Joab and all his host, [even] the mighty 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 went forth, and set the battle in array by the door of the gate: [those] of Syria, Suba, and Roob, and Istob, and Amalec, being 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 And Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him from that which was opposed in front and from behind, and he chose out [some] of all the young men of Israel, and they set themselves in array against Syria.
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 gave into the hand of Abessa his brother, and they set the battle in array opposite to the children of Ammon.
Ary ny olona sisa kosa nomeny ho entin’ i Abisay rahalahiny halahany hiady amin’ ny taranak’ i Amona.
11 And he said, If Syria be too strong for me, then shall you help me: and if the children of Ammon be too strong for you, then will we be ready to help you.
Ary hoy izy: Raha tsy tohako ny Syriana, dia vonjeo aho; fa raha tsy tohanao kosa ny taranak’ i Amona, dia hovonjeko ianao.
12 Be you courageous, and let us be strong for our people, and for the sake of the cities of our God, and the Lord shall do that which is good in his eyes.
Mahereza ary, ka aoka hitombandahy isika ho an’ ny firenentsika sy ny tanànan’ Andriamanitsika; ary aoka Jehovah hanao izay sitrapony.
13 And Joab and his people with him advanced to battle against Syria, and they fled from before him.
Ary Joaba sy ny olona nanaraka azy nandroso hiady amin’ ny Syriana; ary dia nandositra niala teo anoloany ireo.
14 And the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, and they fled from before Abessa, and entered into the city: and Joab returned from 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 the Syrians saw that they were worsted before Israel, and they gathered themselves together.
Ary nony hitan’ ny Syriana fa resy teo anoloan’ ny Isiraely izy, dia nivory izy.
16 And Adraazar sent and gathered the Syrians from the other side of the river Chalamak, and they came to Aelam; and Sobac the captain of the host of Adraazar [was] 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 it was reported to David, and he gathered all Israel, and went over Jordan, and came to Aelam: and the Syrians set the battle in array against David, and fought with 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 Syria fled from before Israel, and David destroyed of Syria seven hundred chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and he struck Sobac the captain of his host, and he died 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 all the kings the servants of Adraazar saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, and they went over to Israel, and served them: and Syria was afraid to help the children of Ammon any more.
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.
