2 Samuel 10
1 Some time later, the king of the Ammon people-group died, and his son Hanun became their king.
Iti saan a nagbayag, natay ti ari dagiti tattao a taga-Amnon, ket simmukat nga ari ti anakna a ni Hanun.
2 David thought, “Nahash was kind to me, so I will be kind to his son.” So David sent some officials there, to tell Hanun that David was sorry that Hanun’s father [had died]. When those messengers arrived in the land where the Ammon people-group lived,
Kinuna ni David, “Ipakitak ti kinasayaat kenni Hanun nga anak ni Naas, kas iti panangipakita iti amana iti kinasayaatna kaniak.” Isu nga imbaon ni David dagiti adipenna tapno liwliwaenda ni Hanun maipapan iti amana. Simrek dagiti adipen ni David iti daga dagiti tattao a taga-Ammon.
3 the leaders of the Ammon people-group said to Hanun, “Do you think that it is to honor your father that King David has sent these men to say that he is sorry that your father died [RHQ]? [We think that] he has sent them here to look around the city to determine how his [army] can conquer us!”
Ngem imbaga dagiti pangulo dagiti tattao a taga-Ammon kenni Hanun nga apoda, “Mamatika kadi a raraemen ni David ti amam gapu ta nangibaon iti tattao a mangliwliwa kenka? Saan ngata a nangibaon ni David kadagiti adipenna kenka a mangkita ken mangsiim iti siudad tapno parmekenda daytoy?”
4 Hanun [believed what they said; so he commanded some soldiers to] seize David’s officials and [insult them by] shaving off one side of each man’s beard, and [by] cutting off the lower part of their robes, [with the result that their buttocks could be seen], and then they sent them away.
Isu nga impatiliw ni Hanun dagiti adipen ni David, impaahitna ti maysa a bangir dagiti barbasda, pinigisna dagiti pagan-anayda agingga iti patongda, ken pinagawidna ida.
5 The men were very humiliated/ashamed, [so they did not want to return home]. When David found out about what had happened to his officials, he sent someone to tell them, “Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown again, and then return home.”
Idi inlawlawagda daytoy kenni David, nangibaon isuna iti mangsabat kadakuada, ta kasta unay ti bain dagiti lallaki. Kinuna ti ari, “Agtalinaedkayo idiay Jerico agingga nga umatiddog manen dagiti barbasyo ket agsublikayo.”
6 Then [the leaders of] the Ammon people-group realized that they had greatly insulted [IDM] David [IDM]. So they sent some men to hire/pay some soldiers [from other nearby areas to help defend them]. They hired 20,000 soldiers from [the] Beth-Rehob and Zobah [regions northeast of Israel], and 12,000 soldiers from [the] Tob [region], and 1,000 soldiers from [the army of] the king of Maacah [region].
Idi naammoan dagiti tattao a taga-Ammon a bimmangsitdan kenni David, nangibaonda iti mensahero ken tinangdananda dagiti Arameo iti Berehob ken Soba, 20, 000 a magmagna a soldado, ken ti ari ti Maaca nga addaan iti 1, 000 a tattaona, ken dagiti tattao a taga-Tob nga addaan iti 12, 000 pay a lallaki.
7 When David heard about that, he sent Joab with all of the army [that Joab commanded], to fight against them.
Idi nangegan ni David daytoy, imbaonna ni Joab ken amin nga armada dagiti soldado.
8 The soldiers of the Ammon people-group marched out and (stood in their positions/arranged themselves for battle) at the entrance [to their capital city, Rabbah]. The other soldiers from Syria and Tob and Maacah stood by themselves (in their positions/arranged themselves for battle) in the nearby fields.
Rimmuar dagiti Ammonita ket nagpuestoda a makigubat iti pagserrekan iti ruangan ti siudadda, kabayatan a dagiti Arameo a taga-Soba, taga-Rehob, ken dagiti lallaki a taga-Tob ken Maaca ket nakapuesto iti nalawa a tay-ak.
9 Joab saw that there were groups of enemy soldiers in front of his troops and behind his troops. So he chose some of the best Israeli soldiers, and put them in positions to fight against the soldiers of Syria.
Idi makita ni Joab dagiti nakapuesto a makigubat a naisaaden kenkuana iti sango ken likodanna, nangpili isuna kadagiti kalalaingan a mannakigubat ti Israel ket impuestona ida maibusor kadagiti Arameo.
10 He appointed his [older] brother Abishai to be the commander of all the other soldiers, and he told them to (stand in their positions/arrange themselves) in front of [the army of] the Ammon people-group.
Intedna met dagiti nabatbati iti armada iti panangbilin ni Abisai a kabsatna ket pinagpuestona ida a maibusor iti armada ti Ammon.
11 Then Joab said, “If the soldiers from Syria are too strong for us to defeat them, your men must come and help us. But if the soldiers from the Ammon people-group are too strong for you to defeat, we will come and help your men.
Kinuna ni Joab, “No napigsa unay dagiti Arameo para kaniak, masapul ngarud a tulongannak, sika Abisai.” Ngem no napigsa unay ti armada ti Ammon para kenka, umayak ngarud ket tulonganka.
12 We must be strong, and fight hard [IDM] to [defend] our people and the cities [(that belong to/where we worship)] our God. I will pray/request that Yahweh do what he considers to be good.”
Papigsaenyo ti pakinakemyo ken ipakitatayo a napigsatayo para kadagiti tattaotayo ken para kadagiti siudad iti Diostayo, ta aramiden ni Yahweh no ania ti naimbag para iti panggepna.”
13 So Joab and his army [advanced to] attack the army of Syria, and the soldiers from Syria ran away from them.
Isu a dimmarup ni Joab ken dagiti soldado ti armadana maibusor kadagiti Arameo, a napilitan a naglibas manipud iti armada ti Israel.
14 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’s [army] stopped fighting against [the army of] the Ammon people-group, and Joab [and his army] returned to Jerusalem.
Idi makita ti armada ti Ammon a naglibas dagiti Arameo, naglibasda met manipud kenni Abisai ket nagsublida iti siudad. Kalpasanna, nagsubli ni Joab manipud kadagiti tattao a taga-Ammon ket nagsubli idiay Jerusalem.
15 After [the leaders of] the army of Syria saw that the Israeli army had defeated them, they gathered all their troops together.
Ket idi nakita dagiti Arameo a parparmeken idan ti Israel, nagtitiponda manen.
16 [Their king, ] Hadadezer, summoned the soldiers of Syria who lived on the east side of the [Euphrates] River. They gathered at Helam [city]. Their commander was Shobach.
Kalpasanna, nangibaon ni Adadezer para kadagiti bunggoy ti Arameo manipud pay iti ballasiw ti Karayan Eufrates. Napanda iti Helam, kaduada ni Sobac a pangulo iti armada ni Adadezer iti sangoda.
17 When David heard about that, he gathered all the Israeli soldiers, and they crossed the Jordan [River] and marched to Helam. There, the army of Syria (took their positions/arranged themselves for battle), and the battle started.
Idi naipadamag daytoy kenni David, inummongna amin nga Israel, bimmalasiwda iti Jordan ket nakadanonda idiay Helam. Nagpuesto a makigubat dagiti Arameo maibusor kenni David ket ginubatda isuna.
18 But the soldiers of Syria ran away from the Israeli soldiers. David [and his army] killed 700 of their chariot-drivers and 40,000 other soldiers. They also wounded Shobach, their commander, and he died there.
Naglibas manipud iti Israel dagiti Arameo. Pinatay ni David iti 700 a soldado a nakakarwahe ken 40, 000 a nakakabalio a soldado. Nasugatan ni Sobac a pangulo iti armadada ket natay sadiay.
19 When all the kings who had been ruled by Hadadezer realized that they had been defeated by the Israeli [army], they made peace with the Israelis and agreed to accept David as their king. So [the army of] Syria was afraid to help [the army of] the Ammon people-group any more.
Idi nakita dagiti ari nga agserserbi kenni Adadezer a pinarmek idan ti Israel, nakikappiada ken nagpaiturayda iti Israel. Isu a mabutengen dagiti Arameo a tumulong pay kadagiti tattao ti Ammon.
