< 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,
Thuutha wa mahinda macio, mũthamaki wa Aamoni agĩkua, nake Hanuni, mũriũ, agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
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.
Nake Daudi agĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, “Nĩnguonania ũtugi kũrĩ Hanuni mũrũ wa Nahashu, o ta ũrĩa ithe aanjĩkire maũndũ ma ũtugi.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi agĩtũma andũ kũrĩ Hanuni makamũcakaithie nĩ ũndũ wa gũkuĩrwo nĩ ithe. Rĩrĩa andũ acio maatũmĩtwo nĩ Daudi maakinyire bũrũri-inĩ wa Aamoni-rĩ,
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?”
andũ arĩa maarĩ igweta a Aamoni makĩũria Hanuni mwathi wao atĩrĩ, “Ũreciiria Daudi nĩ thoguo aratĩĩa nĩ ũndũ wa gũgũtũmĩra andũ magũcakaithie? Githĩ Daudi ndatũmĩte andũ aya kũrĩ we nĩgeetha matuĩrie na mathigaane itũũra rĩĩrĩ inene, nĩguo macooke marĩtunyane?”
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;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Hanuni akĩnyiitithia andũ acio a Daudi, na akĩmenjithia nderu rwere rũmwe, na agĩtinia nguo ciao irima gatagatĩ ka njikarĩro, na akĩmaingata.
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.”
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Daudi eerirwo ũhoro ũcio, agĩtũma andũ makamatũnge tondũ andũ acio nĩmaconorithĩtio mũno. Mũthamaki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ikarai kũu Jeriko nginya nderu cianyu ikũre, mũcooke mũũke.”
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;
Rĩrĩa Aamoni maamenyire atĩ nĩmatuĩkĩte kĩndũ kĩnungu harĩ Daudi-rĩ, makĩandĩka thigari cia magũrũ cia Asuriata ngiri mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kuuma Bethi-Rehobu na Zoba, o na mũthamaki wa Maaka arĩ na andũ ake ngiri ĩmwe, o na ningĩ andũ ngiri ikũmi na igĩrĩ kuuma Tobu.
7 and David hears, and sends Joab, and all the host—the mighty men.
Nake Daudi aigua ũhoro ũcio-rĩ, agĩtũma Joabu na ita rĩothe rĩa mbaara.
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;
Nao Aamoni makiumagara, makĩara mĩhari ya mbũtũ cia mbaara kĩhingo-inĩ gĩa itũũra rĩao inene, nao Asuriata a Zoba na Rehobu, na andũ a Tobu na a Maaka maarĩ oiki kũu werũ-inĩ.
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,
Nake Joabu akĩona atĩ thigari nĩciarĩte mĩhari ya mbaara mbere yake o na thuutha wake; nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩthuura mbũtũ imwe iria ciarĩ njamba mũno kũu Isiraeli, agĩcitũma ikarũe na Asuriata.
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.
Andũ acio angĩ akĩmaiga watho-inĩ wa Abishai mũrũ wa nyina, na akĩmatũma makarũe na andũ a Amoni.
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;
Joabu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Asuriata mangĩĩngĩria hinya-rĩ, wee ũũke ũndeithie; no Aamoni mangĩgũkĩria hinya-rĩ, nĩngũũka ngũteithie.
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.”
Wĩyũmĩrĩrie nĩgeetha tũrũe na ũcamba nĩ ũndũ wa andũ aitũ na nĩ ũndũ wa matũũra manene ma Ngai witũ. Jehova nĩegwĩka ũrĩa ekuona kwagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ make.”
13 And Joab draws near, and the people who [are] with him, to battle against Aram, and they flee from his presence;
Ningĩ Joabu na mbũtũ ciake magĩtharĩkĩra Asuriata, nao makĩmoorĩra.
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.
Rĩrĩa Aamoni moonire atĩ Asuriata nĩmaroora-rĩ, o nao makĩũrĩra Abishai, magĩtoonya thĩinĩ wa itũũra rĩrĩa inene. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Joabu agĩcooka agĩtiga kũrũa na Aamoni na agĩthiĩ Jerusalemu.
15 And Aram sees that it is struck before Israel, and they are gathered together;
Thuutha wa Asuriata kuona atĩ nĩmatoorio nĩ andũ a Isiraeli-rĩ, magĩcookanĩrĩra hamwe rĩngĩ.
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.
Hadadezeri aarehithĩtie Asuriata kuuma mũrĩmo wa Rũũĩ rwa Farati; magĩthiĩ nginya Helamu marĩ hamwe, na Shobaki mũnene wa mbũtũ ya ita ya Hedadezeri, amatongoretie.
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;
Rĩrĩa Daudi eerirwo ũhoro ũcio-rĩ, agĩcookanĩrĩria ita rĩa Isiraeli rĩothe, makĩringa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani na magĩthiĩ nginya Helamu. Nao Asuriata makĩara mĩhari ya thigari cia mbaara igatũngane na Daudi, makĩrũa nake.
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.
No rĩrĩ, Asuriata acio makĩũrĩra Isiraeli, nake Daudi akĩũraga andũ magana mũgwanja arĩa maatwarithagia ngaari ciao cia ita, na thigari cia magũrũ ngiri mĩrongo ĩna. Ningĩ akĩũraga Shobaki mũnene wa mbũtũ ciao, agĩkuĩra kũu.
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.
Rĩrĩa athamaki arĩa othe maarĩ ndungata cia Hadadezeri moonire atĩ nĩmahootwo nĩ Isiraeli-rĩ, magĩthondeka thayũ na andũ a Isiraeli na magĩtuĩka a gwathagwo nĩo. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Asuriata magĩĩtigĩra gũcooka gũteithia Aamoni hĩndĩ ĩngĩ.
