2 Samuel 10
1 It happened after this, that the king of the people of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his place.
Potem se je pripetilo, da je umrl kralj Amónovih otrok in namesto njega je zakraljeval njegov sin Hanún.
2 David said, "I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me." So David sent by his servants to comfort him concerning his father. David's servants came into the land of the people of Ammon.
Potem je David rekel: »Prijaznost bom izkazal Naháševemu sinu Hanúnu, kot je njegov oče izkazal prijaznost meni.« In David je poslal, da ga potolaži po roki svojih služabnikov, zaradi njegovega očeta. In Davidovi služabniki so prišli v deželo Amónovih otrok.
3 But the leaders of the people of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, "Do you think that David honors your father, in that he has sent comforters to you? Hasn't David sent his servants to you to search the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it?"
Princi Amónovih otrok pa so rekli svojemu gospodarju Hanúnu: »Misliš, da David spoštuje tvojega očeta, da je k tebi poslal tolažnike? Ali ni David raje svojih služabnikov poslal k tebi, da bi preiskal mesto, vohunil in da ga zruši?«
4 So Hanun took David's servants and shaved off their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
Zato je Hanún vzel Davidove služabnike, jim pobril eno polovico njihovih brad in njihove obleke odrezal po sredi, celó do njihovih zadnjic in jih poslal proč.
5 When David was told, he sent to meet them; for the men were greatly ashamed. The king said, "Wait at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return."
Ko so to povedali Davidu, je poslal, da jih sreča, ker so bili možje silno osramočeni. Kralj je rekel: »Ostanite pri Jerihi, dokler vam brade ne zrastejo in potem se vrnite.«
6 When the people of Ammon saw that they were become odious to David, the people of Ammon sent and hired the Arameans of Beth Rehob, and the Arameans of Zobah, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah with one thousand men, and the men of Tob twelve thousand men.
Ko so Amónovi otroci videli, da so se usmradili pred Davidom, so Amónovi otroci poslali in najeli Sirce iz Bet Rehóba, Sirce iz Cobe, dvajset tisoč pešcev in od kralja Maáhe tisoč mož in iz Toba dvanajst tisoč mož.
7 When David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of the mighty men.
Ko je David slišal o tem, je poslal Joába in vso vojsko mogočnih mož.
8 The people of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate: and the Arameans of Zobah and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and Maacah, were by themselves in the field.
Amónovi otroci so prišli ven in se postrojili v bitko ob vhodu velikih vrat. Sirci iz Cobe, iz Rehóba, Toba in Maáhe pa so bili posebej na polju.
9 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:
Ko je Joáb videl, da je bilo čelo bitke zoper njega spredaj in zadaj, je izbral izmed vseh izbranih Izraelovih mož in jih postrojil zoper Sirce.
10 The rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother; and he put them in array against the people of Ammon.
Preostanek ljudstva pa je izročil v roko svojega brata Abišája, da bi jih lahko postrojil zoper Amónove otroke.
11 He said, "If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you shall help me; but if the people of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will come and help you.
Rekel je: »Če bodo Sirci zame premočni, potem boš ti pomagal meni, toda če bodo Amónovi otroci premočni zate, potem bom prišel in ti pomagal.
12 Be courageous, and let us be strong for our people, and for the cities of our God; and the LORD do that which seems good to him."
Bodi odločnega poguma in bodimo možje za naše ljudstvo in za mesta našega Boga, Gospod pa naj stori to, kar se mu zdi dobro.«
13 So Joab and the people who were with him drew near to the battle against the Arameans: and they fled before him.
Joáb se je približal in ljudstvo, ki je bilo z njim, k bitki zoper Sirce in ti so pobegnili pred njim.
14 When the people of Ammon saw that the Arameans had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. Then Joab returned from the people of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
Ko so Amónovi otroci videli, da so Sirci pobegnili, potem so tudi sami pobegnili pred Abišájem in vstopili v mesto. Tako se je Joáb vrnil od Amónovih otrok in prišel v Jeruzalem.
15 When the Arameans saw that they were defeated by the children of Israel, they gathered themselves together.
Ko so Sirci videli, da so bili udarjeni pred Izraelom, so se zbrali skupaj.
16 Hadadezer sent, and brought out the Arameans who were beyond the River: and they came to Helam, with Shobach the captain of the army of Hadadezer at their head.
Hadarézer je poslal in privedel ven Sirce, ki so bili onkraj reke in prišli so do Heláma in Šobáh, poveljnik Hadarézerjeve vojske, je šel pred njimi.
17 It was told David; and he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. The Arameans set themselves in array against David, and fought with him,
Ko je bilo to povedano Davidu, je zbral skupaj ves Izrael in prečkal Jordan ter prišel k Helámu. Sirci pa so se postrojili zoper Davida in se borili z njim.
18 but fled before Israel; and David killed of the Arameans seven hundred charioteers, and forty thousand foot soldiers, and struck Shobach the commander of their army, and he died there.
In Sirci so pobegnili pred Izraelom, in David je usmrtil sedemsto mož sirskih bojnih vozov in štirideset tisoč konjenikov in udaril Šobáha, poveljnika njihove vojske, ki je tam umrl.
19 When all the vassals of Hadadezer saw that they were defeated before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and served them. So the Arameans were afraid to give further aid to the Ammonites.
Ko so vsi kralji, ki so bili Hadarézerjevi služabniki, videli, da so bili udarjeni pred Izraelom, so z Izraelom sklenili mir in jim služili. Tako so se Sirci bali, da bi še pomagali Amónovim otrokom.
