1 Chronicles 19
1 Now it came to pass that Naas the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned is his stead.
Hathnukkhu, hettelah ao. Ammonnaw e siangpahrang Nahash a due hoi a capa ni a yueng lah a bawi.
2 And David said: I will shew kindness to Hanon the son of Naas: for his father did a favour to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him upon the death of his father. But when they were come into the land of the children of Ammon, to comfort Hanon,
Devit ni Nahash e capa Hanun koevah, pahrennae kamnue sak han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a na pa ni kai koe pahrennae a kamnue sak toe telah ati. Hatdawkvah, Devit ni a na pa e kong dawk lungpahawi hanelah, patounenaw a patoun teh. Ahni lungpahawi hanelah, Devit e a sannaw teh Ammon catounnaw e ram Hanun koe a pha awh.
3 The princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanon: Thou thinkest perhaps that David to do honour to thy father hath sent comforters to thee: and thou dost not take notice, that his servants are come to thee to consider, and search, and spy out thy land.
Hateiteh, Ammonnaw kahrawikung Hanun koevah, Devit ni nang lungpahawi hanelah a patoun e taminaw heh na pa barinae a poe katang dawk doeh, telah na pouk maw. A sannaw teh ram tuet hane hoi raphoe hane ngai dawk doeh a tho awh e nahoehmaw, telah ati awh.
4 Wherefore Hanon shaved the heads and beards of the servants of David, and cut away their garments from the buttocks to the feet, and sent them away.
Hatdawkvah, Hanun ni Devit e sannaw hah a man teh, a pâkhamuen koung a ngaw pouh teh a khohna hah a laheibaw koe totouh a a pouh teh a ban sak.
5 And when they were gone, they sent word to David, who sent to meet them (for they had suffered a great affront) and ordered them to stay at Jericho till their beards grew and then to return.
A patoun e a sannaw kong hah Devit koe tami buet touh ni a dei pouh teh, hotnaw hah puenghoi yeirai a po sak dawkvah, ahnimanaw kâhmo hanelah laiceinaw a patoun. Siangpahrang ni, na pâkhamuen a sai hoehroukrak Jeriko kho dawk awm awh ei, pâkhamuen a sai torei ban awh telah atipouh.
6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they had done an injury to David, Hanon and the rest of the people sent a thousand talents of silver, to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria Maacha, and out of Soba.
Ammonnaw ni, Devit ni a hmuhma e sak awh toe tie a panue awh toteh, Hanun hoi Ammonnaw ni Mesoptamianaw hoi Sirianaw Maakah hoi Zobahnaw koe leng hoi marangransanaw hlai nahanlah ngun tangka talen 1, 000 a patawn awh.
7 And they hired two and thirty thousand chariots, and the king of Maacha, with his people. And they came and camped over against Medaba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together out of their cities, and came to battle.
Hottelah leng 32, 000 Maakah siangpahrang hoi a taminaw hoi a hlai awh teh, Madeba kho e a hmalah a tungpup awh. Ammonnaw teh a kho tangkuem hoi a tâco awh teh, tuk hanelah a cei awh.
8 And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of valiant men:
Devit ni hote kamthang a thai torei teh, Joab hoi athakaawme ransahu pueng hah a patoun.
9 And the children of Ammon came out and put their army in array before the gate of the city: and the kings, that were come to their aid, stood apart in the field.
Ammonnaw a tâco awh teh, khopui longkha teng vah, tuk hanlah a kamkhueng awh. Kabawm hane siangpahrangnaw teh kahrawng dawk alouklouk lah ao awh.
10 Wherefore Joab understanding that the battle was set against him before and behind, chose out the bravest men of all Israel, and marched against the Syrians,
Hottelah hmalah hoi hnuk lahoi, tuk hanelah kaawm e hah Joab ni a panue torei teh, Isarelnaw thung dawk kahawipoung e a rawi teh, Sirianaw tuk hanlah a cei awh.
11 And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abisai his brother, and they went against the children of Ammon.
Alouke taminaw pueng teh a hmaunawngha Abishai kut dawk a poe teh Ammonnaw tuk hanelah a cei van awh.
12 And he said: If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, I will help thee.
Joab ni, Sirianaw hah ka tâ thai mahoeh na tetpawiteh, na kabawp awh han. Hahoi Ammonnaw hah na tâ thai mahoeh pawiteh, na kabawp awh han.
13 Be of good courage and let us behave ourselves manfully for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the Lord will do that which is good in his sight.
Tarankahawi lah awm awh nateh, maimae taminaw hoi mamae Cathut, khopuinaw hanelah tongpatang lah awm awh sei. BAWIPA ni ahawi tie patetlah sak yawkaw seh ati awh.
14 So Joab and the people that were with him, went against the Syrians to the battle: and he put them to flight.
Hottelah Joab hoi ama koe kaawm e naw ni, tarantuk hane Sirianaw koe rek a hnai awh teh, a hmaitung koung a yawng awh.
15 And the children of Ammon seeing that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled from Abisai his brother, and went into the city: and Joab also returned to Jerusalem.
Ammonnaw ni Sirianaw koung a yawng awh tie hah a panue torei teh, ahnimouh hai a hmaunawngha Abishai e hmalah a yawng awh teh, kho thung a kâen awh. Hatdawkvah, Joab teh Jerusalem vah a ban.
16 But the Syrians seeing that they had fallen before Israel, sent messengers, and brought to them the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Sophach, general of the army of Adarezer, was their leader.
Sirianaw ni Isarelnaw e a hmalah kangdue e hmuen hawihoeh tie a panue torei teh, patounenaw a patoun awh teh, palang namran kaawm e Sirianaw hah a kaw awh. Hadadezer ransabawi Shophate ni hai ahnimouh a uk.
17 And it was told David, and he gathered together all Israel, and passed the Jordan, and came upon them, and put his army in array against them, and they fought with him.
Hote kong teh Devit koe a dei pouh awh. Ahni ni Isarelnaw pueng a kaw teh, Jordan namran vah a cei awh teh, Sirianaw hah a tuk awh.
18 But the Syrian fled before Israel: and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and Sophach the general of the army.
Sirianaw teh, Isarelnaw e a hmalah, a yawng awh teh, Devit ni Sirianaw e leng 7, 000 touh dawk kâcui e naw hoi ransa 40, 000 touh a thei teh ransabawi Shophate hai a thei.
19 And when the servants of Adarezer saw themselves overcome by Israel, they went over to David, and served him: and Syria would not help the children of Ammon any more.
Hatdawkvah, Hadadezernaw ni Isarelnaw e a hmalah kangdout thai hoeh toe tie a panue torei teh, Devit koevah roumnae a sak awh teh, tamuk ka cawng e kho lah ao awh. Hatdawkvah, Sirianaw ni Ammonnaw teh kabawp han ngai awh hoeh toe.
