< 2 Samuel 10 >

1 And it comes to pass afterward, that the king of the sons of Ammon dies, and his son Hanun reigns in his stead,
Bangʼ kinde moko ruodh jo-Amon notho, mi Hanun wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
2 and David says, “I do kindness with Hanun son of Nahash, as his father did kindness with me”; and David sends to comfort him by the hand of his servants concerning his father, and the servants of David come into the land of the sons of Ammon.
Daudi noparo niya, “Abiro timo maber ni Hanun wuod Nahash, mana kaka wuon-gi bende notimona tim ngʼwono.” Omiyo Daudi nooro joote mondo odhi ogone mos makende kuom tho mar wuon-gi. Kane joote Daudi ochopo e piny jo-Amon,
3 And the heads of the sons of Ammon say to their lord Hanun, “Is David honoring your father in your eyes because he has sent comforters to you? For has David not sent his servants to you to search the city, and to spy it, and to overthrow it?”
jotelo mag jo-Amon nowachone Hanun ma ruodhgi niya, “Iparo ni Daudi miyo wuonu duongʼ ka ooro ji iri mondo ogoni mos? Donge Daudi oorogi mana mondo gibi ginon dala maduongʼ mondo oyud kaka dokawe?”
4 And Hanun takes the servants of David, and shaves off the half of their beard, and cuts off their long robes in the midst—to their buttocks, and sends them away;
Omiyo Hanun nomako joote Daudi molielo bath yie tik moro ka moro nyakonchiel; nongʼado lepgi e diere tir chakre e nungogi nyaka piny, moriembogi gidhi.
5 and they declare [it] to David, and he sends to meet them, for the men have been greatly ashamed, and the king says, “Abide in Jericho until your beard springs up—then you have returned.”
Kane onyis Daudi wachni, nooro joote mondo odhi orom ni jogo, nikech nokuod wigi marach. Ruoth nowachonegi niya, “Beduru Jeriko nyaka yie tiku ti, eka uduogi.”
6 And the sons of Ammon see that they have been abhorred by David, and the sons of Ammon send and hire Aram of Beth-Rehob, and Aram of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah [with] one thousand men, and Ish-Tob [with] twelve thousand men;
Kane jo-Amon oneno ka gisechido chuny Daudi, negichulo jo-Aram mondo omigi jolweny mawuotho gi tiendgi ji alufu piero ariyo moa Beth Rehob gi Zoba, to gi ruodh Maaka bende nomiyogi jolweny alufu achiel to gi jolweny alufu apar gariyo moa Tob.
7 and David hears, and sends Joab, and all the host—the mighty men.
Ka Daudi nowinjo mano nooro Joab gi jolweny duto ma jokedo.
8 And the sons of Ammon come out, and set in array [for] battle, at the opening of the gate, and Aram of Zoba, and Rehob, and Ish-Tob, and Maacah, [are] by themselves in the field;
Jo-Amon nobiro mi giriedo ne lweny e dhoranga dalagi maduongʼ, ka jo-Aram moa Zoba gi Rehob gi jo-Tob gi Maaka ne nikendgi e pap oko.
9 and Joab sees that the front of the battle has been to him before and behind, and he chooses [out] of all the chosen in Israel, and sets in array to meet Aram,
Joab noneno ni wasigu ni yo ka nyime gi yo katoke; omiyo noyiero jolweny mabeyo moloyo ei Israel, moketogi mondo giked gi jo-Aram.
10 and he has given the rest of the people into the hand of his brother Abishai, and sets in array to meet the sons of Ammon.
To joma odongʼ duto noketo e bwo Abishai mowadgi mondo oked gi jo-Amon.
11 And he says, “If Aram is stronger than I, then you have been for salvation to me, and if the sons of Ammon are stronger than you, then I have come to give salvation to you;
Joab nowacho niya, “Ka jo-Aram tek moloya, to ubi ukonya, to ka jo-Amon tek moloyou, to anabi mondo akonyi.
12 be strong and strengthen yourself for our people, and for the cities of our God, and YHWH does that which is good in His eyes.”
Beduru motegno mondo waked gi chir ni jowa kendo ni mier madongo mag Nyasachwa. Jehova Nyasaye biro timo gima oneno ni ber e nyim wangʼe.”
13 And Joab draws near, and the people who [are] with him, to battle against Aram, and they flee from his presence;
Eka Joab gi jolweny mane ni kode nodhi mondo oked gi jo-Aram, kendo negiringo e nyimgi.
14 and the sons of Ammon have seen that Aram has fled, and they flee from the presence of Abishai, and go into the city; and Joab turns back from the sons of Ammon, and comes to Jerusalem.
Kane jo-Amon oneno ka jo-Aram ringo tony, gin bende negiringo ka gitony e nyim Abishai mi gidonjo e dala maduongʼ. Omiyo Joab noweyo kedo gi jo-Amon modok Jerusalem.
15 And Aram sees that it is struck before Israel, and they are gathered together;
Bangʼ kane jo-Aram oneno ni jo-Israel oseloyogi, negichokore kendo.
16 and Hadadezer sends, and brings out Aram which [is] beyond the River, and they come to Helam, and Shobach, head of the host of Hadadezer, [is] before them.
Hadadezer nooro wach mondo okel jo-Aram man loka Aora Yufrate kendo gidhi Helam ka Shobak ma en jatend jolweny mag Hadadezer, otelonegi.
17 And it is declared to David, and he gathers all Israel, and passes over the Jordan, and comes to Helam, and Aram sets itself in array to meet David, and they fight with him;
Kane owach ni Daudi wachno, nochoko jo-Israel duto, mongʼado aora Jordan modhi Helam. Jo-Aram nochanore ni lweny mondo girad gi Daudi kendo negikedo kode.
18 and Aram flees from the presence of Israel, and David slays seven hundred charioteers and forty thousand horsemen of Aram, and he has struck Shobach, [the] head of its host, and he dies there.
To jo-Israel noloyogi mi giringo, kendo Daudi nonego joidh gechegi mag farese mia abiriyo kod jolweny mag-gi mawuotho gi tielo alufu piero angʼwen. Nochwowo Shobak jatend jolweny, motho kanyo.
19 And all the kings—servants of Hadadezer—see that they have been struck before Israel, and make peace with Israel, and serve them; and Aram is afraid to help the sons of Ammon anymore.
Kane ruodhi duto mane ni e bwo loch Hadadezer oneno ni jo-Israel oseloyogi, negiloso kwe e kindgi gi jo-Israel mi gibedo e bwo lochgi. Omiyo jo-Aram nobedo maluor mar konyo jo-Amon kendo.
