< 2 Samuel 10 >
1 And it came to pass, after this, that the king of the sons of Ammon died, —and that Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
Li te vin rive apre ke wa a Amoreyen an te mouri e Hanun, fis li a, te devni wa nan plas li.
2 Then said David—I will shew lovingkindness unto Hanun son of Nahash, as his father shewed, unto me, lovingkindness. So David sent to comfort him, by the hand of his servants, as to his father, —and the servants of David came into the land of the sons of Ammon.
Konsa, David te di: “Mwen va montre bòn volonte mwen a Hanun, fis a Nachasch la, jis jan ke papa li te montre m bòn volonte a.” Konsa, David te voye kèk nan sèvitè li yo pou konsole li konsènan papa li. Konsa, sèvitè a David yo te rive nan peyi Amonit yo.
3 Then said the rulers of the sons of Ammon unto Hanun their lord—Is David honouring thy father, in thine eyes, that he hath sent unto thee comforters? Is it not, for the sake of exploring the city, and spying it out, and overthrowing it, that David hath sent his servants unto thee?
Men prens a Amonit yo te di a Hanun, mèt pa yo a: “Èske ou kwè ke David ap onore papa ou akoz li te voye moun konsole ou? Èske David pa t pito voye sèvitè li yo kote ou pou fè ankèt vil la, pou espyone ak boulvèse li?”
4 Wherefore Hanun took David’s servants, and shaved off half their beards, and cut off their upper garments in the middle, as far as their buttocks, —and let them go.
Konsa, Hanun te pran sèvitè a David yo, li te pase razwa sou mwatye bab yo, li te koupe manto yo jis rive nan mitan kote kwis yo, e li te voye yo ale.
5 And, when they told David, he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed, —and the king said—Tarry at Jericho, until your beards be grown, then shall ye return.
Lè yo te pale David sa, li te voye rankontre yo, paske mesye yo te imilye anpil. Epi wa a te di: “Rete Jéricho jiskaske bab nou vin pouse e konsa, retounen.”
6 And, when the sons of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious with David, the sons of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth-rehob, and the Syrians of Zoba—twenty thousand footmen, and of king Maacah—a thousand men, and men of Tob—twelve thousand men.
Alò, lè fis a Ammon yo te wè ke yo te vin rayisab devan David, fis a Ammon yo te voye anplwaye Siryen yo Beth-Rehob e Siryen yo a Tsoba, ven-mil sòlda a pye, wa Macca avèk mil lòm e mesye a Tob yo avèk douz-mil lòm.
7 And, when David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army of heroes,
Lè David te tande sa, li te voye Joab avèk tout lame mesye vanyan yo.
8 And the sons of Ammon came out, and set in array for battle, at the entrance of the gate, —whereas, the Syrians of Zoba, and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and of Maacah, were by themselves, in the field.
Fis a Ammon yo te vin parèt. Yo te ranje yo nan chan batay la devan antre vil la, pandan Siryen a Tsoba yo avèk Rehob, mesye a Tob yo avèk Maaca pou kont yo te nan chan an.
9 And, when Joab saw that the front of the battle was towards him, before and behind, he chose out of all the chosen men of Israel, and set them in array against the Syrians;
Alò, lè Joab te wè ke batay la te ranje kont li pa devan kon pa dèyè, li te seleksyone pami mesye pi chwazi an Israël yo pou te ranje yo kont Siryen yo.
10 while, the rest of the people, he delivered into the hand of Abishai his brother, —and set [them] in array against the sons of Ammon.
Men rès nan pèp la, li te plase yo nan men Abischaï, frè li a e li te ranje yo kont fis Ammon yo.
11 And he said—If the Syrians be too strong for me, then shalt thou become my deliverance, —but, if, the sons of Ammon, be too strong for thee, then will I come with deliverance to thee.
Li te di: “Si Siryen yo twò fò pou mwen, alò, ou va ban m sekou; men si fis a Ammon yo twò fò pou ou, alò, mwen va vin ede ou.
12 Be strong, and let us put forth our strength, for the sake of our people, and for the sake of the cities of our God, —and, Yahweh, do what is good in his own eyes.
Pran kouraj e kite nou parèt ak tout fòs nou pou koz a pèp nou an e pou vil Bondye pa nou an. Ke SENYÈ a kapab fè sa ki bon nan zye Li.”
13 And Joab drew nigh, and the people that were with him, to fight against the Syrians, —and they fled before him.
Konsa, Joab avèk moun ki te avèk li yo te rapwoche nan batay la kont Siryen yo e yo te sove ale devan yo.
14 And, when, the sons of Ammon, saw that the Syrians had fled, then fled they before Abishai, and entered the city, —so Joab returned from the sons of Ammon, and entered Jerusalem.
Lè fis a Ammon yo te wè ke Siryen yo te sove ale, yo osi te sove ale devan Abischaï e te antre nan vil la. Alò, Joab te retounen sispann goumen kont fis a Ammon yo pou te rive kote Jérusalem.
15 And, when the Syrians saw that they were defeated before Israel, they gathered themselves together;
Lè Siryen yo te wè ke yo te fin bat pa Israël, yo te vin rasanble ansanm.
16 and Hadadezer sent and brought out the Syrians that were beyond the River, and they entered Helam, —Shobach the prince of the host of Hadadezer being before them.
Epi Hadarézer te voye chache Siryen ki te pi lwen Rivyè Euphrate la pou yo te vini Hélam. Schobac, Kòmandan a lame a Hadarézer a te sou tèt yo.
17 And, when it was told David, he gathered together all Israel, and passed over the Jordan, and entered Helam, —and the Syrians set themselves in array to meet David, and fought with him.
Alò, lè sa te pale a David, li te rasanble tout Israël ansanm e te travèse Jourdain an pou te rive vè Hélam. Konsa, Siryen yo te alinye yo pou rankontre David e te goumen kont li.
18 Then fled the Syrians before Israel, and David slew of the Syrians seven hundred chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, —Shobach also, prince of their host, smote he, that he died, there.
Men Siryen yo te sove ale devan Israël. David te touye sèt-san mèt a cha Siryen, karant-mil chevalye e te frape fè desann Schobac, kòmandan lame pa yo a, e li te mouri la.
19 And, when all the kings who were servants to Hadadezer saw that they were defeated before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and served them, —and the Syrians feared to give help any more unto the sons of Ammon.
Lè tout wa yo, sèvitè a Hadarézer yo te wè ke yo te pèdi devan Israël, yo te fè lapè avèk Israël pou te sèvi yo. Konsa, Siryen yo te vin gen krent pou ede fis a Ammon yo ankò.
