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.
Na i muri i tenei ka mate te kingi o nga tamariki a Amona, a ko Hanunu, ko tana tama te kingi i muri i a ia.
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.
Na ka mea a Rawiri, ka puta toku aroha ki a Hanunu tama a Nahaha, ka rite ki te aroha o tona papa i puta ra ki ahau. Na tonoa ana e Rawiri ana tangata hei kawe i tana whakamarie ki a ia mo tona papa. Na ka tae nga tangata a Rawiri ki te whenua o nga tama a Amona.
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?"
Na ka mea nga rangatira o nga tamariki a Amona ki a Hanunu, ki to ratou ariki, Ki tou whakaaro he whakahonore na Rawiri i tou papa i tonoa mai e ia nga kaiwhakamarie ki a koe? he teka ianei he titiro i te pa, he tutei, he whakangaro te mea i tono a mai ai e Rawiri ana tangata ki a koe?
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.
Heoi ka mau a Hanunu ki nga tangata a Rawiri, a heua ana e ia tetahi taha o o ratou pahau, tapahia ana o ratou kakahu ki waenga a tae noa ki o ratou papa, a tonoa atu ana ratou.
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."
A, no te korerotanga o taua mea ki a Rawiri, ka tono tangata ia ki te whakatau i a ratou; he nui hoki te whakama o aua tangata; i mea ano te kingi, Hei Heriko noho ai, kia tupu ra ano o koutou pahau, ka hoki mai ai.
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.
A, no te kitenga o nga tamariki a Amona e whakahouhou ana ratou ki a Rawiri, ka tono tangata nga tamariki a Amona hei utu i nga Hiriani o Peterehopo, i nga Hiriani ano o Topa, e rua tekau mano, he hunga haere i raro, i te kingi ano o Maaka, kotah i mano tangata, i to Ihitopo, kotahi tekau ma rua mano tangata.
7 When David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of the mighty men.
A, no te rongonga o Rawiri, ka tonoa e ia a Ioapa me te ope katoa o nga marohirohi.
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.
Na ka puta nga tama a Amona ki waho, a whakatakotoria ana a ratou ngohi ki te tomokanga atu o te kuwaha; a ko nga Hiriani o Topa, o Rehopo, me o Ihitopo, o Maaka, ko ratou anake i te parae.
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:
Na, i te kitenga o Ioapa e akina ana a mua, a muri, ona e te hoariri, ka whiriwhiria e ia etahi o nga tino tangata katoa o Iharaira, a whakaritea ana e ia hei tu ki nga Hiriani:
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.
Ko te nuinga atu hoki o te iwi i tukua e ia ki te ringa o Apihai, o tona teina, a whakatikaia ana e tera hei tu ki nga tama a Amona.
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.
I mea ano ia, Ki te kaha atu nga Hiriani i ahau, na me haere atu ahau ki te awhina i a koe.
12 Be courageous, and let us be strong for our people, and for the cities of our God; and YHWH do that which seems good to him."
Kia maia, kia whakatangata hoki tatou mo to tatou iwi, mo nga pa hoki o to tatou Atua: a ma Ihowa e mea te mea i pai ki a ia.
13 So Joab and the people who were with him drew near to the battle against the Arameans: and they fled before him.
Na ka whakatata atu a Ioapa ratou ko tona nuinga ki te whawhai ki nga Hiriani, a rere ana ratou i tona aroaro.
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.
A, no te kitenga o nga tama a Amona kua rere nga Hiriani, ka rere ano ratou i te aroaro o Apihai, a haere ana ki te pa. Na hoki ana a Ioapa i nga tama a Amona, a haere ana ki Hiruharama.
15 When the Arameans saw that they were defeated by the children of Israel, they gathered themselves together.
A, i te kitenga o nga Hiriani kua patua ratou e Iharaira, ka huihui ratou.
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.
A ka tono tangata a Hararetere ki te tiki i nga Hiriani i tawahi o te awa: a haere mai ana ratou ki Herama, ko Kopaka hoki, ko te rangatira o te ope a Hararetere ki mua i a ratou.
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,
A ka korerotia ki a Rawiri; a ka huihuia e ia a Iharaira katoa, a whiti ana ki tera taha o Horano haere ana ki Herama. Na ka whakatikaia e nga Hiriani o ratou ngohi hei tu i a Rawiri, a ka whawhai ki a ia.
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.
Na ka rere nga Hiriani i te aroaro o Iharaira; a patua iho o nga Hiriani e Rawiri nga tangata o nga hariata e whitu rau, e wha tekau mano ano nga hoia eke hoiho; i patua ano e ia a Hopaka, te rangatira o to ratou ope, a mate iho ia ki reira.
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.
A, no ka kite nga kingi katoa, nga apa o Hararetere, kua patua ratou e Iharaira, ka houhia e ratou te rongo ki a Iharaira, a ka meinga hei apa mo ratou. Heoi wehi ana nga Hiriani, a mutu ake ta ratou awhina i nga tama a Amona.
