< 1 Chronicles 19 >
1 After this also Nahash the King of the children of Ammon dyed, and his sonne reigned in his stead.
Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, Nahash eze ndị Amọn nwụrụ, nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
2 And Dauid said, I will shew kindnesse vnto Hanun the sonne of Nahash, because his father shewed kindnesse vnto me. And Dauid sent messengers to comfort him for his father. So the seruants of Dauid came into the lande of the children of Ammon to Hanun to comfort him.
Mgbe ahụ, Devid chere sị, “Aga m egosi Hanọn nwa Nahash obi ebere nʼihi na nna ya gosiri m obi ebere.” Ya mere, Devid zipụrụ ndị ozi ka ha gaa kasịe ya obi nʼihi ọnwụ nna ya. Mgbe ndị ozi Devid bịakwutere Hanọn nʼala ndị Amọn ịkasị ya obi,
3 And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that Dauid doeth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters vnto thee? Are not his seruants come to thee to search, to seeke and to spie out the land?
ndịisi ala Amọn sịrị Hanọn, bụ onyenwe ha, “Ị na-eche na Devid na-akwanyere nna gị ụgwụ site na izite ndị ozi ya ka ha bịa kasịe gị obi? Ọ bụ na ndị ozi ya abịakwuteghị gị, naanị ka ha mee nledo, nyochapụta otu obodo a dị ma kwatuo ya?”
4 Wherefore Hanun tooke Dauids seruants, and shaued them, and cut off their garments by the halfe vnto the buttocks, and sent them away.
Nʼihi nke a, Hanọn jidere ndị ozi Devid nʼike, kpụchapụ ha ajị, bipụkwa uwe mwụda ha nʼetiti ike ha, zilaga ha.
5 And there went certaine and tolde Dauid concerning the men: and he sent to meete them (for the men were exceedingly ashamed) and the King saide, Tarie at Iericho, vntill your beardes be growen: then returne.
Mgbe otu onye bịara zie Devid ihe banyere ndị ikom ahụ, o zipụrụ ndị ozi, ka ha gaa zute ha, nʼihi na e mere ha ihe ihere nʼebe ọ dị ukwuu. Eze sịrị, “Nọdụnụ na Jeriko tutu ruo mgbe afụọnụ unu tolitere, mgbe ahụ unu ga-alọta.”
6 When the children of Ammon saw that they stanke in the sight of Dauid, then sent Hanun and the children of Ammon a thousande talents of siluer to hire them charets and horsemen out of Aram Naharaim and out of Aram Maachah, and out of Zobah.
Ma mgbe ndị Amọn chọpụtara na ha abụrụla ihe ịsọ oyi nʼebe Devid nọ, Hanọn na ndị Amọn zipụrụ otu puku talenti ọlaọcha iji gbazite ụgbọ agha na ndị na-agba ụgbọ agha site na Aram Naharaim, na Aram Maaka, nakwa Zoba.
7 And they hired them two and thirty thousande charets, and the King of Maachah and his people, which came and pitched before Medeba: and the children of Ammon gathered themselues together from their cities, and came to the battell.
Ha goro ụgbọ agha ọnụọgụgụ ya dị iri puku atọ, na puku abụọ. Ha gokwara eze Maaka na ndị agha ya, ndị bịara maa ụlọ ikwu agha ha na nso Medeba, ebe ndị Amọn sikwa nʼobodo ha niile chịkọta onwe ha pụta ịlụ agha.
8 And when Dauid heard, he sent Ioab and all the hoste of the valiant men.
Mgbe Devid nụrụ nke a, o zipụrụ Joab na ndị agha ya niile bụ dike na dimkpa nʼagha.
9 And the children of Ammon came out, and set their battell in aray at the gate of the citie. And the Kings that were come, were by them selues in the fielde.
Ndị Amọn pụtara doo onwe ha nʼusoro ibu agha, nʼọnụ ụzọ ama obodo ha. Ma ndị eze ahụ bịara agha, nọpụrụ onwe ha na mbara ala.
10 When Ioab saw that the front of the battel was against him before and behinde, then he chose out of all the choyse of Israel, and set him selfe in aray to meete the Aramites.
Mgbe Joab hụrụ na agha dị megide ya nʼihu na azụ, ọ họpụtara ụfọdụ ndị ọkachamara site nʼetiti ndị agha Izrel, doo ha nʼusoro izute ndị Aram.
11 And the rest of the people he deliuered vnto the hande of Abishai his brother, and they put them selues in aray against the children of Ammon.
O tinyere ndị ikom fọdụrụ nʼokpuru ọchịchị Abishai, nwanne ya, e zipụrụ ha izute ndị Amọn nʼagha.
12 And he saide, If Aram be too strong for me, then thou shalt succour me: and if the children of Ammon preuaile against thee, then I wil succour thee.
Mgbe Abishai na-apụ, Joab gwara ya okwu sị ya, “Ọ bụrụ na ndị Aram esie ike karịa m, mgbe ahụ, ị ga-abịa napụta m. Ọ bụrụkwanụ na ndị Amọn adịrị ike karịa gị, aga m abịa napụta gị.
13 Be strong, and let vs shewe our selues valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God, and let the Lord doe that which is good in his owne sight.
Nwee obi ike, ka anyị lụọ ọgụ a dịka ndị dị ike, nʼihi ndị anyị na obodo niile nke Chineke anyị. Ka Onyenwe anyị meekwa ihe dị mma nʼanya ya.”
14 So Ioab and the people that was with him, came neere before the Aramites vnto the battel, and they fled before him.
Mgbe ahụ, Joab na ndị agha so ya bịara nso ibuso ndị Aram agha, ha sitere nʼihu ha gbapụ ọsọ.
15 And when the children of Ammon sawe that the Aramites fled, they fled also before Abishai his brother, and entred into the citie: so Ioab came to Ierusalem.
Mgbe ndị Amọn hụrụ ka ndị Aram na-agbapụ ọsọ, ha onwe ha gbakwaara ọsọ nʼihu Abishai, gbaba nʼime obodo. Ya mere, Joab laghachiri na Jerusalem.
16 And when the Aramites sawe that they were discomfited before Israel, they sent messengers and caused the Aramites to come forth that were beyond the riuer: and Shophach the captaine of the hoste of Hadarezer went before them.
Ma mgbe ndị Aram hụrụ na ndị Izrel tigburu ha, ha zipụrụ ndị ozi gara kpọta ndị Aram site nʼofe ọzọ nke Osimiri Yufretis. Ọ bụ Shofaka ọchịagha ndị agha Hadadeza na-edu ha.
17 And when it was shewed Dauid, he gathered all Israel, and went ouer Iorden, and came vnto them, and put him selfe in aray against them: And when Dauid had put him selfe in battel aray to meete the Aramites, they fought with him.
Mgbe a gwara Devid banyere nke a, ọ chịkọtara ndị Izrel niile, pụọ gafee Jọdan. O gara nso imegide ha, o doro usoro agha ya na ncherita ihu ha. Devid doro usoro ndị agha ya izute ndị Aram nʼagha, ha lụsokwara ya agha.
18 But the Aramites fled before Israel, and Dauid destroyed of the Aramites seuen thousand charets, and fourtie thousand footemen, and killed Shophach the captaine of the hoste.
Ma ha sitere nʼihu ndị Izrel gbaa ọsọ. Devid gburu puku asaa nʼime ndị ikom na-anya ụgbọ agha, gbukwaa iri puku ndị agha anọ ndị na-eji ụkwụ eje. O gbukwara Shofaka, bụ ọchịagha agha ha.
19 And when the seruants of Hadarezer sawe that they fell before Israel, they made peace with Dauid, and serued him. And the Aramites would no more succour the children of Ammon.
Mgbe ndị eze niile nọ nʼokpuru ọchịchị Hadadeza hụrụ na Izrel etigbuola ha, ha mere ka ha na Devid dịrị nʼudo, bụrụkwa ndị nọ nʼokpuru ya. Ya mere, ndị Aram adịghịkwa njikere inyere ụmụ Amọn aka ọzọ.
