1 Chronicles 19
1 Now it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
А после тога умре Нас, цар синова Амонових, и зацари се син његов на његово место.
2 And David said, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
И рече Давид: Да учиним милост Ануну сину Насовом, јер је отац његов начинио мени милост. И посла Давид посланике да га потеше за оцем. И дођоше слуге Давидове у земљу синова Амонових к Ануну да га потеше.
3 But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that David doth honor thy father, that he hath sent comforters to thee? are not his servants come to thee to search, and to overthrow, and to explore the land?
А кнезови синова Амонових рекоше Ануну, господару свом: Мислиш да је Давид зато послао људе да те потеше што је рад учинити част оцу твом? А нису зато дошле слуге његове к теби да промотре и уходе и оборе земљу?
4 Wherefore Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the midst hard by their buttocks, and sent them away.
Тада Анун ухвати слуге Давидове, и обрија их и одсече им хаљине по поле до задњице, и оправи их натраг.
5 Then there went [certain], and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them: for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards are grown, and [then] return.
А кад неки отидоше, те јавише Давиду за те људе, он посла пред њих, јер људи беху грдно осрамоћени, и поручи им цар: Седите у Јерихону док вам нарасте брада, па онда дођите натраг.
6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria-maachah, and out of Zobah.
А кад видеше синови Амонови где се омразише с Давидом, онда Анун и синови Амонови послаше хиљаду таланата сребра да најме кола и коњика из Месопотамије и из Сирије Махе и из Сове.
7 So they hired thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people, who came and encamped before Medeba. And the children of Ammon assembled from their cities, and came to battle.
И најмише тридесет и две хиљаде кола и цара од Махе с народом његовим, који дођоше и стадоше у логор према Медеви. А и синови Амонови скупише се из градова својих и дођоше на бој.
8 And when David heard [of it], he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
А Давид кад то чу, посла Јоава са свом храбром војском.
9 And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that had come [were] by themselves in the field.
И изиђоше синови Амонови и уврсташе се пред вратима градским; а цареви који дођоше беху за се у пољу.
10 Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he selected all the choice of Israel, and put [them] in array against the Syrians.
И Јоав видећи намештену војску према себи спред и састраг, узе одабране из све војске израиљске, и намести их према Сирцима.
11 And the rest of the people he delivered to the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set [themselves] in array against the children of Ammon.
А остали народ предаде Ависају, брату свом; и наместише их према синовима Амоновим.
12 And he said, If the Syrians shall be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me: but if the children of Ammon shall be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.
И рече: Ако Сирци буду јачи од мене, дођи ми у помоћ; ако ли синови Амонови буду јачи од тебе, ја ћу теби доћи у помоћ.
13 Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the LORD do [that which is] good in his sight.
Буди јунак и држимо се јуначки за свој народ и за градове Бога свог; а Господ нека учини шта му је драго.
14 So Joab and the people that [were] with him drew nigh before the Syrians to the battle; and they fled before him.
Тада Јоав и народ који беше с њим примакоше се да ударе на Сирце; али они побегоше испред њих.
15 And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
А синови Амонови кад видеше где побегоше Сирци, побегоше и они испред Ависаја брата његовог и уђоше у свој град. Потом се Јоав врати у Јерусалим.
16 And when the Syrians saw that they were defeated before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that [were] beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer [went] before them.
Али Сирци кад видеше да их надбише Израиљци, послаше посланике те доведоше Сирце испреко реке; а Софак војвода Адад-Езеров иђаше пред њима.
17 And it was told to David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set [the battle] in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.
Кад то јавише Давиду, он скупи све Израиљце, и пређе преко Јордана, и дође к њима и намести војску према њима; а кад намести Давид војску према њима, побише се с њим.
18 But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand [men who fought in] chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.
Али побегоше Сирци испред Израиља, и поби Давид Сираца седам хиљада кола и четрдесет хиљада пешака, и Софака војводу погуби.
19 And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were defeated before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.
И кад видеше слуге Адад-Езерове да их разби Израиљ, учинише мир с Давидом и служаху му; и не хтеше више Сирци помагати синовима Амоновим.
