2 Samuel 10
1 It came about later that the king of the people of Ammon died, and that Hanun his son became king in his place.
Bangʼ kinde moko ruodh jo-Amon notho, mi Hanun wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
2 David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent his servants to comfort Hanun concerning his father. His servants entered the land of the people of Ammon.
Daudi noparo niya, “Abiro timo maber ni Hanun wuod Nahash, mana kaka wuon-gi bende notimona tim ngʼwono.” Omiyo Daudi nooro joote mondo odhi ogone mos makende kuom tho mar wuon-gi. Kane joote Daudi ochopo e piny jo-Amon,
3 But the leaders of the people of Ammon said to Hanun their master, “Do you really think that David is honoring your father because he has sent men to comfort you? Has not David sent his servants to you to look at the city, to spy it out, in order to overthrow it?”
jotelo mag jo-Amon nowachone Hanun ma ruodhgi niya, “Iparo ni Daudi miyo wuonu duongʼ ka ooro ji iri mondo ogoni mos? Donge Daudi oorogi mana mondo gibi ginon dala maduongʼ mondo oyud kaka dokawe?”
4 So Hanun took David's servants, shaved off half their beards, cut off their garments up to their buttocks, and sent them away.
Omiyo Hanun nomako joote Daudi molielo bath yie tik moro ka moro nyakonchiel; nongʼado lepgi e diere tir chakre e nungogi nyaka piny, moriembogi gidhi.
5 When they explained this to David, he sent to meet with them, for the men were deeply ashamed. The king said, “Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown back, and then return.”
Kane onyis Daudi wachni, nooro joote mondo odhi orom ni jogo, nikech nokuod wigi marach. Ruoth nowachonegi niya, “Beduru Jeriko nyaka yie tiku ti, eka uduogi.”
6 When the people of Ammon saw that they had become a stench to David, the people of Ammon sent messengers and hired the Arameans of Beth Rehob and Zobah, twenty thousand foot soldiers, and the king of Maacah with a thousand men, and the men of Tob with twelve thousand men.
Kane jo-Amon oneno ka gisechido chuny Daudi, negichulo jo-Aram mondo omigi jolweny mawuotho gi tiendgi ji alufu piero ariyo moa Beth Rehob gi Zoba, to gi ruodh Maaka bende nomiyogi jolweny alufu achiel to gi jolweny alufu apar gariyo moa Tob.
7 When David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army of soldiers.
Ka Daudi nowinjo mano nooro Joab gi jolweny duto ma jokedo.
8 The Ammonites came out and formed a line of battle at the entrance to their city gate, while the Arameans of Zobah and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and Maacah, stood by themselves in the open fields.
Jo-Amon nobiro mi giriedo ne lweny e dhoranga dalagi maduongʼ, ka jo-Aram moa Zoba gi Rehob gi jo-Tob gi Maaka ne nikendgi e pap oko.
9 When Joab saw the battle lines facing him both in front and behind, he chose some of Israel's best fighters and arranged them against the Arameans.
Joab noneno ni wasigu ni yo ka nyime gi yo katoke; omiyo noyiero jolweny mabeyo moloyo ei Israel, moketogi mondo giked gi jo-Aram.
10 The rest of his people he put into the hand of Abishai his brother, and he set them out in position to fight against the army of Ammon.
To joma odongʼ duto noketo e bwo Abishai mowadgi mondo oked gi jo-Amon.
11 Joab said, “If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you, Abishai, must rescue me. But if the army of Ammon is too strong for you, then I will come and rescue you.
Joab nowacho niya, “Ka jo-Aram tek moloya, to ubi ukonya, to ka jo-Amon tek moloyou, to anabi mondo akonyi.
12 Be strong, and let us show ourselves to be strong for our people and for the cities of our God, for Yahweh will do what is good for his purpose.”
Beduru motegno mondo waked gi chir ni jowa kendo ni mier madongo mag Nyasachwa. Jehova Nyasaye biro timo gima oneno ni ber e nyim wangʼe.”
13 So Joab and the soldiers of his army advanced to the battle against the Arameans, who were forced to flee before the army of Israel.
Eka Joab gi jolweny mane ni kode nodhi mondo oked gi jo-Aram, kendo negiringo e nyimgi.
14 When the army of Ammon saw that the Arameans had fled, they also fled from Abishai and went back into the city. Then Joab returned from the people of Ammon and went back to Jerusalem.
Kane jo-Amon oneno ka jo-Aram ringo tony, gin bende negiringo ka gitony e nyim Abishai mi gidonjo e dala maduongʼ. Omiyo Joab noweyo kedo gi jo-Amon modok Jerusalem.
15 When the Arameans saw that they were being defeated by Israel, they gathered themselves together again.
Bangʼ kane jo-Aram oneno ni jo-Israel oseloyogi, negichokore kendo.
16 Then Hadarezer sent for Aramean troops from beyond the Euphrates River. They came to Helam, and Shobak, the commander of Hadarezer's army, went before them.
Hadadezer nooro wach mondo okel jo-Aram man loka Aora Yufrate kendo gidhi Helam ka Shobak ma en jatend jolweny mag Hadadezer, otelonegi.
17 When David was told this, he gathered all Israel together, crossed the Jordan, and arrived at Helam. The Arameans arranged themselves in battle lines against David and fought him.
Kane owach ni Daudi wachno, nochoko jo-Israel duto, mongʼado aora Jordan modhi Helam. Jo-Aram nochanore ni lweny mondo girad gi Daudi kendo negikedo kode.
18 The Arameans fled from Israel, and David killed seven hundred of their men in chariots and forty thousand horsemen. Shobak the commander of their army was wounded and died there.
To jo-Israel noloyogi mi giringo, kendo Daudi nonego joidh gechegi mag farese mia abiriyo kod jolweny mag-gi mawuotho gi tielo alufu piero angʼwen. Nochwowo Shobak jatend jolweny, motho kanyo.
19 When all the kings who were servants of Hadarezer saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel and became their subjects. So the Arameans were afraid to help the people of Ammon anymore.
Kane ruodhi duto mane ni e bwo loch Hadadezer oneno ni jo-Israel oseloyogi, negiloso kwe e kindgi gi jo-Israel mi gibedo e bwo lochgi. Omiyo jo-Aram nobedo maluor mar konyo jo-Amon kendo.
