2 Samuel 10
1 And it was after thus and he died [the] king of [the] people of Ammon and he reigned Hanun son his in place his.
Après cela, il advint que le roi des fils d'Ammon mourut, et qu'Annon, son fils, régna à sa place.
2 And he said David I will do covenant loyalty - with Hanun [the] son of Nahash just as he did father his with me covenant loyalty and he sent David to comfort him by [the] hand of servants his concerning father his and they came [the] servants of David [the] land of [the] people of Ammon.
Et David dit: Je serai compatissant envers Annon, fils de Naas, de même que son père a été compatissant pour moi; en conséquence, il envoya, pour le consoler de la mort de son père, des serviteurs qui allèrent en la contrée des fias d'Ammon.
3 And they said [the] leaders of [the] people of Ammon to Hanun lord their ¿ honoring [is] David father your in view your for he has sent to you comforters ¿ not in order to explore the city and to spy on it and to overthrow it has he sent David servants his to you.
Mais, les princes des fils d'Ammon dirent à Annon, leur maître: Est-ce pour glorifier devant toi ton père que David envoie ces consolateurs? N'est-ce point plutôt pour s'informer de ta ville, et pour la reconnaître par eux-mêmes, que David a chargé ses serviteurs de venir auprès de toi.
4 And he took Hanun [the] servants of David and he shaved half of beard their and he cut off robes their at the middle to buttocks their and he sent away them.
Annon saisit donc les serviteurs de David; il leur rasa la barbe, il coupa le bas de leurs manteaux, à partir du milieu des reins, et il les chassa.
5 And people told to David and he sent to meet them for they were the men humiliated very and he said the king remain at Jericho until it will grow back beard your and you will return.
On vint dire à David ce qui leur était arrivé, et il envoya des gens à leur rencontre; car ils étaient cruellement déshonorés, et il leur dit: Demeurez à Jéricho jusqu'à ce que votre barbe ait repoussé; puis, alors vous reviendrez.
6 And they saw [the] people of Ammon that they had made themselves odious with David and they sent [the] people of Ammon and they hired Aram Beth Rehob and Aram Zobah twenty thousand foot soldier[s] and [the] king of Maacah one thousand man and [the] man of Tob two [plus] ten thousand man.
Les fils d'Ammon, voyant que le peuple de David se tenait pour outragé, firent partir des messagers, et ils enrôlèrent à prix d'or les Syriens de Bethraam, ceux de Suba, ceux de Rhoob, qui leur fournirent vingt mille piétons; le roi d'Amalec en fournit mille, et Istob douze mille.
7 And he heard David and he sent Joab and all the army the warriors.
David l'apprit et il mit en mouvement Joab avec toute l'armée, et les hommes vaillants.
8 And they went out [the] people of Ammon and they deployed battle [the] entrance of the gate and Aram Zobah and Rehob and [the] man of Tob and Maacah to alone them [were] in the open country.
Et les fils d'Ammon sortirent; et ils se rangèrent en bataille près de la porte de Suba en Syrie; cependant, Rhoob, Istob et Amalec étaient détachés dans la campagne.
9 And he saw Joab that it was against him [the] face of the battle from before and from behind and he chose some of all [the] chosen [men] (of Israel *Q(K)*) and he deployed [them] to meet Aram.
Joab reconnut qu'il aurait à livrer bataille devant son front et sur ses derrières; il rangea donc en face des Syriens les plus vaillants des jeunes fils d'Israël.
10 And [the] rest of the people he put in [the] hand of Abishai brother his and he deployed [them] to meet [the] people of Ammon.
Et il confia à son frère Abessa le reste de l'armée, qui se déploya contre les fils d'Ammon.
11 And he said if it will be [too] strong Aram for me and you will become of me deliverance and if [the] people of Ammon they will be [too] strong for you and I will come to deliver you.
Et il dit à son frère: Si les Syriens l'emportent sur moi, tu viendras à mon aide, et si les fils d'Ammon te font plier, j'irai te secourir.
12 Be strong so we may show ourselves strong for people our and for [the] cities of God our and Yahweh he will do the good in view his.
Sois fort, agissons en hommes, pour l'amour de notre peuple et des villes de notre Dieu; que le Seigneur ensuite fasse à sa volonté.
13 And he drew near Joab and the people which [was] with him for battle in Aram and they fled from before him.
Et Joab avec sa troupe tomba sur les Syriens, et ceux-ci s'enfuirent devant lui.
14 And [the] people of Ammon they saw that it had fled Aram and they fled from before Abishai and they went the city and he returned Joab from on [the] people of Ammon and he came Jerusalem.
Quand les fils d'Ammon virent que les Syriens fuyaient, ils s'enfuirent eux-mêmes devant Abessa, et ils s'enfermèrent dans leur ville; Joab les y laissa pour revenir à Jérusalem.
15 And it saw Aram that it was defeated before Israel and they gathered themselves together.
Mais la Syrie, voyant qu'elle avait échoué devant Israël, se leva tout entière, pour reprendre l'attaque.
16 And he sent Hadadezer and he brought out Aram which [was] from [the] other side of the River and they came Helam and Shobach [the] commander of [the] army of Hadadezer [was] before them.
Adraazar dépêcha des messagers, et il appela les Syriens des rives du fleuve Chalamac, et ils se rendirent à Elam. Et Sobac, général de l'armée d'Adraazar, fut mis à leur tête.
17 And it was told to David. And he gathered all Israel and he passed over the Jordan and he came Helam towards and they deployed Aram to meet David and they did battle with him.
On en instruisit David, qui réunit tout Israël, passa le Jourdain, et atteignit Elam. Et les Syriens se déployèrent devant David, et ils lui livrèrent bataille.
18 And it fled Aram from before Israel and he killed David of Aram seven hundred charioteer[s] and forty thousand horsemen and Shobach [the] commander of army its he struck down and he died there.
Les Syriens s'enfuirent devant Israël; David leur détruisit sept cents chars et quarante mille cavaliers; et il frappa mortellement Sobac, général de leur armée, qui mourut sur le lieu même.
19 And they saw all the kings [the] servants of Hadadezer that they were defeated before Israel and they made peace with Israel and they served them and they were afraid Aram to deliver again [the] people of Ammon.
Et tous les rois, serviteurs d'Adraazar, voyant qu'il avait échoué devant Israël, se donnèrent à David; ils lui furent asservis, et la Syrie eut crainte de secourir encore les fils d'Ammon.
