< 1 Chronicles 19 >

1 And it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
MAHOPE mai o ia mea, make iho la o Nahasa ke alii o na mamo a Amona, a nohoalii iho la o Hanuna ma kona wahi.
2 And David said: 'l will show kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me.' So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
Olelo iho la o Davida, E lokomaikai no wau ia Hanuna ke keiki a Nahasa; no ka mea, i lokomaikai mai kona makuakane ia'u. Hoouna aku la o Davida i na elele e hooluolu aku ia ia no kona makuakane. A hiki aku la na elele o Davida i ka aina o na mamo a Amona, io Hanuna la, e hooluolu ia ia.
3 But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun: 'Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?'
Aka, o na alii o na mamo a Amona, i aku la lakou ia Hanuna, Ke manao nei anei oe, e hoomaikai mai o Davida i kou makuakane i kona hoouna ana mai iou la i na mea hooluolu? Aole anei i hele mai kana mau kauwa iou nei e makaikai, a e hookahuli, a e hoomakakiu mai i ka aina?
4 So Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their hips, and sent them away.
Nolaila, lalau mai la o Hanuna i na kauwa a Davida, a kahi ae la i ko lakou umiumi, a okioki iho la i ko lakou mau aahu mawaena, ma ko lakou kikala, a kipaku mai la ia lakou.
5 Then there went certain persons, and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them; for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said: 'Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.'
Hele mai la kekahi, a hai aku la ia Davida i ka mea i hanaia mai i ua mau kanaka la. Hoouna aku ia ia e halawai me lakou: no ka mea, ua hilahila loa lakou. I aku la ke alii, E noho oukou ma Ieriko, a ulu ae ko oukou umiumi, alaila e hoi mai
6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Aram-naharaim, and out of Aram-maacah, and out of Zobah.
A ike iho la na mamo a Amona, ua pilau lakou imua o Davida, hoouka aku la o Hanuna me na mamo a Amona i na talena kala he tausani e hoolimalima no lakou i na halekaa a me na hoohololio mai Mesopotamia, a mai Suria-maaka, a mai Zoba mai.
7 So they hired them thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah and his people; who came and encamped before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
Hoolimalima ae la lakou i na kaa he kanakolukumamalua tausani, a me ke alii o Maaka, a me kona poe kanaka; a hele mai lakou a hoomoana imua o Medeba. Akoakoa mai la na mamo a Amona mailoko mai o ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, a hele mai i ke kaua.
8 And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
A lohe ae la o Davida, hoouna aku la oia ia Ioaba, me ka puali a pau o ka poe ikaika.
9 And the children of Ammon came out and put the battle in array at the gate of the city; and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.
Hele mai la ka poe mamo a Amona iwaho, a hoonohonoho i ke kaua ma ke alo o ka puka e komo ai iloko o ke kulanakauhale: a ku okoa ae la na alii i hiki mai ma ke kola.
10 Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Arameans.
A ike aku la o Ioaba i ke alo o na kaua, mamua kekahi, a mahope kekahi, wae aku la oia i ka poe ui a pau o ka Iseraela, a hoonohonoho aku la ia lakou e ku e i ko Suria
11 And the rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother, and they put themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
A haawi aku la ia i ka poe i koe ma ka lima o Abisai kona kaikaina, a hoonohonoho aku oia ia lakou e ku e i na mamo a Amona.
12 And he said: 'If the Arameans be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me; but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.
I aku la oia, Ina e oi aku ka ikaika o ko Suria i ko'u, alaila e kokua mai oe ia'u: aka, ina e oi aku ka ikaika o na mamo a Amona i kou, alaila au e kokua aku ia oe.
13 Be of good courage, and let us prove strong for our people, and for the cities of our God; and the LORD do that which seemeth Him good.'
I nui ka ikaika, a e koa hoi kakou no ko kakou lahuikanaka, a me na kulanakauhale no ko kakou Akua: a e hana mai o Iehova i ka mea pono imua o kona maka.
14 So Joab and the people that were with him drew nigh unto the battle to meet the Arameans; and they fled before him.
Neenee aku la o Ioaba me na kanaka me ia imua o ko Suria, i ke kaua ana; a hee aku la lakou imua ona.
15 And when the children of Ammon saw that the Arameans were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
A ike aku la na mamo a Amona, ua hee aku la ko Suria, alaila hee aku la hoi lakou imua o Abisai kona kaikaina, a komo aku la iloko o ke kulanakauhale. Alaila hele mai la o Ioaba i Ierusalema.
16 And when the Arameans saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and brought out the Arameans that were beyond the River, with Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer at their head.
A ike ae la ko Suria, ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hoouna aku la lakou i na elele, a kai mai la lakou i ko Suria e noho ana ma kela aoao o ka muliwai: a imua o lakou o Sopaka ka lunakoa no Hadarezera.
17 And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Arameans, they fought with him.
A hai aku la kekahi ia Davida: a hoakoakoa ae la oia i ka Iseraela a pau, a hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane, a hiki aku la io lakou la, a hoonohonoho aku la i ke kaua ku e ia lakou. Aia hoonohonoho aku ai o Davida i ke kaua ku e ia lakou, alaila lakou i kaua mai me ia.
18 And the Arameans fled before Israel; and David slew of the Arameans the men of seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.
A hee aku la ko Suria imua o ka Iseraela; a pepehi aku la o Davida i na kanaka o na halekaa ehiku tausani, a me na kanaka kaniwawae he kanaha tausani, a make iho la o Sopaka ka lunakaua.
19 And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and served him; neither would the Arameans help the children of Ammon any more.
A ike iho la na kauwa a Hadarezera, ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hookuikahi mai la lakou me Davida, a lilo iho la i poe kauwa nana Aole hoi i manao ko Suria e kokua hou aku i na mamo a Amona.
