< 2 Samuel 10 >
1 Sometime after this, Nahash, the Ammonite king died and his son Hanun succeeded him.
Un pēc tam Amona bērnu ķēniņš nomira, un viņa dēls Anons palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
2 David said, “I will be kind to Hanun, son of Nahash, just as his father was kind to me.” So David sent representatives to take his condolences to Hanun regarding his father. But when they arrived in the country of the Ammonites,
Tad Dāvids sacīja: es darīšu žēlastību pie Anona, Nahasa dēla, tā kā viņa tēvs žēlastību darījis pie manis. Un Dāvids nosūtīja un lika viņu iepriecināt caur saviem kalpiem par viņa tēvu; un Dāvida kalpi nāca uz Amona bērnu zemi.
3 the Ammonite military leaders said to Hanun their king, “Do you really believe David sent condolences to you out of respect for your father? Isn't it more likely that David sent his representatives to scout out the city, spy on it, and then conquer it?”
Tad Amona bērnu lielkungi sacīja uz savu kungu Anonu: vai Dāvids tavu tēvu godina tavās acīs, ka viņš ir sūtījis iepriecinātājus pie tevis? Vai Dāvids savus kalpus nav tāpēc sūtījis pie tevis, ka viņš šo pilsētu izklausa un izlūko un izposta?
4 So Hanun had David's representatives detained, shaved off half of each man's beard, cut off their clothes at the buttocks, and then sent them back home.
Tad Anons ņēma Dāvida kalpus un tiem nodzina pusbārdu un tiem nogrieza vienu drēbju pusi līdz pašiem gurniem un tos atlaida.
5 When David was told about this, he sent messengers to meet them, because they were very embarrassed. The king instructed them, “Stay in Jericho until your beards have re-grown, and then you can return.”
Kad tas nu Dāvidam tapa zināms, tad viņš tiem sūtīja pretī, jo šie vīri bija ļoti apsmieti. Un ķēniņš tiem lika sacīt: palieciet Jērikū, tiekams jūsu bārda būs ataugusi, un tad nāciet atpakaļ.
6 When the Ammonites realized they had become like a bad smell to David, they sent a request to the Arameans and hired twenty thousand of their foot soldiers from Beth Rehob and Zobah, as well as one thousand men from the king of Maakah, and also twelve thousand men from Tob.
Kad nu Amona bērni redzēja, ka tie bija palikuši smirdoši pie Dāvida, tad Amona bērni nosūtīja un saderēja no BetRekabas Sīriešiem un no Cobas Sīriešiem divdesmit tūkstoš kājniekus un no Maākas ķēniņa tūkstoš vīrus un no Tobas vīriem divpadsmit tūkstoš vīrus.
7 When David learned of this, he sent Joab and the entire army to confront them.
Kad Dāvids to dzirdēja, tad viņš sūtīja Joabu un visu to vareno karaspēku.
8 The Ammonites set up their battle lines near the entrance to their town gate, while the Arameans of Zobah and Rehob and the men of Tob and Maacah took up positions by themselves in the open fields.
Un Amona bērni izgāja un taisījās uz kaušanos vārtu priekšā, bet tie Sīrieši no Cobas un Rekabas un tie vīri no Tobas un Maākas bija vieni paši savrup laukā.
9 Joab realized he would have to fight both in front of him and behind him, he chose some of Israel's best troops and he took charge of them to lead the attack the Arameans.
Kad nu Joabs redzēja, ka karš pret viņu taisījās no priekšas un no aizmugures, tad viņš izlasīja no visiem jauniem Israēla vīriem un nostājās Sīriešiem pretī.
10 He put the rest of the army under the command of Abishai, his brother. They were to attack the Ammonites.
Un tos citus ļaudis viņš deva savam brālim Abizajum rokā, un tas nostājās pret Amona bērniem. Un viņš sacīja:
11 Joab told him, “If the Arameans are stronger than me, you come and help me. If the Ammonites are stronger than you, I'll come and help you.
Ja Sīrieši būs stiprāki nekā es, tad nāc tu man palīgā, bet ja Amona bērni būs stiprāki nekā tu, tad es tev iešu palīgā.
12 Be brave, and fight your best for our people and the towns of our God. May the Lord do what he sees as good!”
Turies stipri un lai stipri stāvam priekš mūsu ļaudīm un priekš mūsu Dieva pilsētām, bet Tas Kungs lai dara, kā Viņam labi patīk.
13 Joab attacked the Arameans with his forces and they ran away from him.
Un Joabs ar tiem ļaudīm, kas pie viņa bija, gāja kauties Sīriešiem virsū, bet šie bēga viņa priekšā.
14 When the Ammonites saw that the Arameans had run away, they also ran away from Abishai, and retreated into the town. So Joab went back to Jerusalem after fighting the Ammonites.
Un kad Amona bērni to redzēja, ka Sīrieši bēga, tad tie arīdzan bēga Abizajus priekšā un nāca pilsētā, un Joabs griezās atpakaļ no Amona bērniem un nāca uz Jeruzālemi.
15 As soon as the Arameans saw they had been defeated by the Israelites they reassembled their forces.
Kad nu Sīrieši redzēja, ka Israēla priekšā bija sakauti, tad tie atkal sapulcējās.
16 Hadadezer sent for more Arameans to be brought from beyond the Euphrates River. They arrived in Helam under the leadership of Shobach, commander of Hadadezer's army.
Un HadadEzers nosūtīja un lika tiem Sīriešiem nākt, kas bija viņpus upes, un tie nāca uz Elamu, un Zobaks, HadadEzera kara lielskungs, gāja viņu priekšā.
17 When this was reported to David, he assembled all Israel together. He crossed the Jordan and advanced on Helam. The Arameans positioned themselves in battle line against David and fought him.
Kad tas Dāvidam tapa sacīts, tad viņš sapulcināja visu Israēli un pārgāja pār Jardāni un nāca uz Elamu, un Sīrieši nostājās Dāvidam pretī un ar to kāvās.
18 But the Aramean army ran away from the Israelites, and David killed 700 charioteers and 40,000 infantry. He also attacked Shobach, their army commander, and he died there.
Bet Sīrieši bēga Israēla priekšā, un Dāvids nokāva no Sīriešiem septiņsimt ratus un četrdesmit tūkstoš jātniekus; viņš sita arī Zobaku, viņu kara lielkungu, ka tas tur nomira.
19 When all the kings allied with Hadadezer realized that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with David and became subject to him. As a result, the Arameans were afraid to help the Ammonites any more.
Kad nu visi ķēniņi, kas bija HadadEzera kalpi, redzēja, ka bija sakauti Israēla priekšā, tad tie derēja mieru ar Israēli un viņam kalpoja, un Sīrieši bijās, uz priekšu nākt palīgā Amona bērniem.
