1 Chronicles 19
1 Some time later, Nahash, the king of the Ammon people-group, died. Then his son Hanun became their king.
Amogalu fa: no, A:mone soge hina bagade amo Na: iha: se da bogoi. Egefe Ha: inane da ea hina bagade sogebi lai.
2 [When] David [heard about that, he] thought [to himself], “Nahash was kind to me, so I will be kind to his son.” So David sent some officials there, to tell Hanun that he was sorry to hear that Hanun’s father [had died]. But when David’s officials came to Hanun in the land where the Ammon people-group lived,
Hina bagade Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Ha: inane ea ada Na: iha: se da nama asigi galu. Amaiba: le, na da ea mano ilima asigimu da defea.” Amaiba: le, Da: ibidi da sia: adole ahoasu dunu, ea asigi sia: sia: ma: ne, Ha: inanema asunasi.
3 the leaders of the Ammon people-group said to Hanun, “Do you think that it is really to honor your father that King David is sending these men to say that he is sorry that your father died? [We think that] his men have come to (look around/spy) our city in order to determine how his [army] can conquer us.”
Ilia A: mone sogega doaga: loba, A:mone ouligisu dunu ilia da hina bagadema amane sia: i, “Di adi dawa: bela: ? Da: ibidi da dia adama nodone dawa: beba: le, amo dunu dima asigi sia: sia: mane asunasibala: ? Hame mabu! Amo da desega ahoasu dunu amo Da: ibidi da nini hasalima: ne, ninia soge hou amo abodele ba: musa: asunasi.”
4 Hanun [believed what they said, so he commanded some soldiers to] seize the officials whom David had sent, and shave off their beards, and [insult them by] cutting off the lower part of their robes, and then send them away. [So his soldiers did that].
Amaiba: le, Ha: inane da Da: ibidi ea sia: adola ahoasu dunu amo gagulaligili, ilia mayabo la: idi waga: ne, ilia abula mugagili damunisili, ili buhagima: ne asunasi.
5 The officials were greatly humiliated/ashamed. When David found out about what had happened to his officials, he sent some messengers to them to tell them, “Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown again, and then return home.”
Ilia da buhagimu bagadewane gogosia: i. Da: ibidi da amane hamoi nababeba: le, e da ilima amane sia: si, “Dilia Yeligou moilai bai bagadega ouesalu, dilia mayabo bu sa: i galea, buhagima!”
6 Then the [leaders of the] Ammon people-group realized that they had greatly insulted [IDM] David. So Hanun and some of his officials sent about (37,000 pounds/34,000 kg.) of silver to hire chariots and chariot-drivers from [the] Aram-Naharaim, Aram-Maacah and Zobah [regions of Syria northeast of Israel].
Hina bagade Ha: inane amola A: mone dunu ilia da Da: ibidi ilia ha lai hamoi dagoi dawa: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da silifa 40 danese agoane, sa: liode amola amoga fila heda: su dunu bidi lama: ne, Gado Mesoubouda: imia soge amola Silia soge amo Ma: iaga amola Souba, ilima iasili wele guda: i.
7 They hired 32,000 chariots and chariot-drivers, as well as the king of [the] Maacah [region] and his army. They came and set up their tents near Medeba [town in Moab region]. The soldiers from the Ammon people-group also marched out and (stood in their positions/arranged themselves for battle) [at the entrance to their capital city, Rabbah].
Ilia bidiga lai fidisu dunu, amo sa: liode 32,000 agoane amola Ma: iaga hina bagade ea dadi gagui wa: i, ilia da Mediba moilai gadenene misini, wa: i fi esalebe ba: i.
8 When David heard about that, he sent Joab and all his army.
Da: ibidi da amo hou nababeba: le, e da Youa: be amola Isala: ili dadi gagui wa: i huluane ilima gegemusa: asunasi.
9 The soldiers of the Ammon people-group came out of their city and lined up for battle at the entrance to [their capital city, Rabbah]. Meanwhile, the other kings who had come [with their armies] stood in their positions in the open fields.
A: mone dadi gagui dunu da gadili mogodigili, ilia da La: ba (ilia moilai bai bagade) amo ea logo holei gadenene dadalei. Amola hina bagade amo da ili fidimusa: misi, ilia dadi gagui dunu da sogebi genebogela asili, amogai dadalei.
10 Joab saw that there were groups of enemy soldiers in front of his troops and behind his troops. So he selected some of the best Israeli troops and put them in positions to fight against the soldiers of Syria.
Youa: be da ba: loba, ea ha lai da midadi amola bagia ema doagala: mu ba: i. Amaiba: le, e da Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu baligili noga: idafa amo ilegele, ilia da Silia dadi gagui dunu ilima ba: le gusuli aligima: ne asunasi.
11 He appointed his [older] brother Abishai to be the commander of his other soldiers and he told them to (stand in their positions/arrange themselves) in front of [the army of] the Ammon people-group.
E da ea eya Abisia: i amo Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu eno ouligima: ne sia: i. Abisia: i da sia: beba: le, amo Isala: ili dadi gagui da A: mone dunu ilima ba: le gusuli dadalei.
12 Joab said to them, “If the soldiers from Syria are too strong for us to defeat them, then your soldiers must come and help us. But if the soldiers from the Ammon people-group are too strong for you to defeat them, then my soldiers will come and help your men.
Youa: be da Abisia: ima amane sia: i, “Di da Silia dunu na hasalimusa: heda: be ba: sea, na fidila misa. Amola na da A: mone dunu di hasalimusa: heda: be ba: sea, na da di fidila masunu.
13 We must be strong/courageous, and fight hard to [defend] our people and our cities (that belong to/where we worship) our God. I will pray that Yahweh will do what he considers to be good.”
Di mae beda: ne gasa fima! Ninia fi dunu amola Gode Ea moilai huluane gaga: musa: , gasa fili hamoma. Amola Hina Gode Ea hamomusa: ilegei, amo ba: mu da defea!”
14 So Joab and his troops [advanced to] fight the army of Syria, and the soldiers from Syria ran away from them.
Youa: be amola ea dunu da doagala: musa: midadi manebeba: le, Silia dunu ilia da hobea: i.
15 And when the soldiers of the Ammon people-group saw that the soldiers from Syria were running away, they also started to run away from Abishai and his army, and they retreated back inside the city. So Joab [and his army] returned to Jerusalem.
A: mone dunu da Silia dunu hobealebe ba: lu, ilia da Abisia: i amoma hobeale, moilai amo ganodini hehenane golili sa: i. Amalalu, Youa: be da A: mone dunuma gegenanu yolesili, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega buhagi.
16 After [the leaders of the army of] Syria realized that they had been defeated by [the army of] Israel, they sent messengers to [another part of Syria on] the east side of the [Euphrates] river, and brought troops from there [to the battle area], with Shophach, the commander of Hadadezer’s army, leading them.
Silia dunu da Isala: ili dunu ili hasali dagoi amo dawa: loba, ilia da ilia dadi gagui dunu huluanedafa gilisima: ne wele sia: i. Hina bagade Ha: da: disa da Silia dunu huluane amo Iufala: idisi Hano gusudili esalu, amo ema misa: ne sia: si. Ilia da Hila: me moilaiga misi. Sioubage (Souba hina bagade Ha: da: disa, amo ea dadi gagui wa: i ouligisudafa dunu galu) da ili ouligisu.
17 When David heard about that, he gathered all the Israeli soldiers, and they crossed the Jordan [River]. They advanced and took their battle positions to attack the army of Syria.
Da: ibidi da amo sia: nababeba: le, e da Isala: ili dadi gagui dunu gilisili, Yodane Hano degei. Amogawi, ea sia: beba: le, ilia da Silia dunu ilima ba: le gusuli dadalele, gegesu da mui.
18 But the army of Syria ran away from the soldiers of Israel. However, David’s soldiers killed 7,000 of their chariot-drivers and 40,000 other soldiers. They also killed Shophach, their army commander.
Isala: ili dunu da Silia dunuma gegesa fula se bobogei. Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da Silia sa: liode amoga fila heda: i dunu 700 agoane amola emoga ahoasu dadi gagui dunu 40,000 agoane fane lelegei. Ilia da Sioubage (ilia ha lai ouligisudafa) amo fa: ginisili, e da gegesu sogebi amogawi bogoi.
19 When the kings who had been ruled by Hadadezer realized that they had been defeated by the Israeli army, they made peace with David, and agreed to allow him to rule them. So the rulers of Syria did not want to help the rulers of the Ammon people-group any more.
Hina bagade Ha: da: disa da eno hina bagade fonobahadi ouligisu. Ilia da Isala: ili dunu da ilima hasali dagoi ba: i. Amaiba: le, ilia da Isala: ili dunuma olofomusa: gousa: i. Amalalu, Isala: ili dunu da ili ouligilalu. Amola Silia dunu da beda: iba: le, bu A: mone dunu fidimu higa: i galu.
