2 Samuel 10
1 Forsothe it was doon aftir these thingis, that Naas, kyng of the sones of Amon, diede; and Anoon, his sone, regnede for hym. And Dauid seide,
Akyiri no, Amonfo hene Nahas wui. Ne babarima Hanun na odii nʼade sɛ ɔhene.
2 Y schal do mercy with Anon, the sone of Naas, as his fadir dide mercy with me. Therfor Dauid sente coumfortynge hym by hise seruauntis on the deeth of the fadir. Sotheli whanne the seruauntis of Dauid hadden come in to the lond of the sones of Amon,
Dawid kae se, “Mɛyɛ Nahas babarima Hanun adɔe, sɛnea nʼagya yɛɛ me adɔe no.” Nʼagya wu nti, Dawid tuu abɔfo kɔɔ ne nkyɛn kɔmaa no hyɛden. Bere a Dawid abɔfo baa Amonfo asase so no,
3 princes of the sones of Amon seiden to Anon, her lord, Gessist thou that for the onour of thi fadir Dauid sente coumfortouris to thee; and not herfor Dauid sente hise seruauntis to thee, that he schulde aspie, and enserche the citee, and distrie it?
Amonfo atitiriw no kobisaa wɔn wura Hanun se, “Wugye di sɛ ba a Dawid somaa nʼabɔfo baa wo nkyɛn bɛmaa wo hyɛden no kyerɛ nidi ampa ara ana? Wunnye nni sɛ Dawid somaa wɔn akwansra so, sɛ wɔmmɛhwɛ wo kuropɔn na wɔabetu agu?”
4 Therfor Anoon took the seruauntis of Dauid, and schauyde half the part of `the beerd of hem, and he kittide awey the myddil clothis of hem `til to the buttokis; and lefte hem.
Ɛno nti, Hanun kyeree Dawid abɔfo no, yii obiara abogyesɛ fa, twitwaa wɔn ntade to mfimfini hɔ, tutuu mu, na wogyaa wɔn kwan, ma wɔde animguase kɔe.
5 And whanne this was teld to Dauid, he sente in to the comyng of hem, for the men weren schent ful vilensly. And Dauid comaundide to hem, Dwelle ye in Jerico, til youre beerd wexe, and thanne turne ye ayen.
Bere a wɔbɔɔ Dawid amanneɛ no, otuu abɔfo ma wokohyiaa mmarima no, efisɛ woguu wɔn anim ase yiye. Ɔhene ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Montena Yeriko kosi sɛ mo abogyesɛ befuw ansa na moasan aba.”
6 Sotheli the sones of Amon sien, that thei hadden do wrong to Dauid, and thei senten, and hiriden bi meede Roob of Sirye, and Soba of Sirie, twenti thousynde of foot men, and of kyng Maacha, a thousynde men, and of Istob twelue thousynde of men.
Bere a Amonfo huu sɛ wɔahyɛ Dawid abufuw no, wɔkɔbɔɔ Aramfo asraafo mpem aduonu paa fii Bet-Rehob ne Soba. Saa ara na Maakahene nso maa wɔn mmarima apem fii ne nkyɛn, na Tob nso wonyaa mmarima mpem dumien.
7 And whanne Dauid hadde herd this, he sent Joab and al the oost of fiyteris.
Dawid tee saa no, ɔkaa Yoab ne akofo asraafo guu mu.
8 Therfor the sones of Amon yeden out, and dressiden scheltrun bifor hem in the entryng of the yate. Forsothe Soba, and Roob of Sirie, and Istob, and Maacha weren asidis half in the feeld.
Amonfo no gyinaa wɔn kurow pon ano. Saa bere no na Aramfo a wofi Soba ne Rehob ne mmarima a wofi Tob ne Maaka no wɔ mfikyiri baabiara retwɛn ɔtamfo no.
9 Therfor Joab siy, that batel was maad redi ayens hym, bothe euene ayens and bihynde the bak; and he chees to hym silf of alle the chosun men of Israel, and ordeynede scheltrun ayens Sirus.
Bere a Yoab huu sɛ ɔrebɛko akofanu no, oyii asraafo a wɔyɛ nnam. Ɔno ara dii wɔn so safohene, dii wɔn anim, kɔko tiaa Aramfo no wɔ mfikyiri hɔ.
10 Forsothe he bitook to Abisai, his brothir, the tother part of the puple, which dresside scheltrun ayens the sones of Amon.
Ogyaw asraafo no nkae hɔ, de wɔn hyɛɛ ne nuabarima Abisai nsa sɛ ɔsafohene a ɔbɛkɔ akotua Amonfo no.
11 And Joab seide, If men of Sirie han the maistrie ayens me, thou schalt be to me in to help; sotheli if the sones of Amon han the maistrie ayens thee, Y schal helpe thee;
Yoab ka kyerɛɛ ne nuabarima no se, “Sɛ Aramfo no yɛ den dodo ma me a, ɛyɛ a, bɛboa me. Na sɛ Amonfo no nso yɛ den dodo ma wo a, me nso, mɛba abɛboa wo.
12 be thou a strong man, and fiyte we for oure puple, and for the citee of oure God; forsothe the Lord schal do that, that is good in his siyt.
Ma wo bo nyɛ duru. Ma yɛnko akokoduru so mfa nnye yɛn nkurɔfo ne Onyankopɔn nkurow. Awurade pɛ nyɛ hɔ.”
13 Therfor Joab and his puple that was with hym, bigan batel ayens men of Sirie, whiche fledden anoon fro his face.
Bere a Yoab ne nʼakofo no tow hyɛɛ Aramfo no so no, wofii ase guanee.
14 Forsothe the sones of Amon sien, that men of Sirie hadden fled; and thei fledden also fro the face of Abisai, and entriden in to the citee; and Joab turnede ayen fro the sones of Amon, and cam in to Jerusalem.
Na Amonfo no huu sɛ Aramfo no reguan no, woguan fii Abisai ho kɔhyɛɛ kurow no mu. Ɔko no gui no, Yoab san kɔɔ Yerusalem.
15 Forsothe men of Sirye sien that thei hadden feld bifor Israel, and thei weren gaderid to gidere.
Afei, Aramfo no huu sɛ ɛnyɛ wɔn afɛ ne Israelfo. Enti wɔboaa wɔn ho ano bio.
16 And Adadezer sente, and ledde out men of Sirie that weren biyende the flood, and he brouyte the oost of hem; sotheli Sobach, mayster of the chyualrie of Adadezer, was the prince of hem.
Aram asraafo foforo bi bɛkaa wɔn ho a Hadadeser na ɔsoma ma wɔkɔfaa wɔn fii Asubɔnten Eufrate fa nohɔ bae. Saa asraafo no beduu Helam a Sobak na na ɔyɛ wɔn ɔsahene, na ɔyɛ ɔsahene a otua Hadadeser asraafo nyinaa ano nso.
17 And whanne this was teld to Dauid, he drow togidere al Israel, and passide Jordan, and cam in to Helama. And men of Sirie dressiden scheltrun ayens Dauid, and fouyten ayens hym.
Bere a Dawid tee nea ɛreba no, ɔboaboaa Israel nyinaa ano, de wɔn twaa Asubɔnten Yordan, dii asraafo no anim, koduu Helam. Ɛhɔ na Aramfo no fifii wɔn mpasua so tow hyɛɛ Dawid so.
18 And Sireis fledden fro the face of Israel; and Dauid killide of Sireis seuene hundrid charis, and fourti thousynde of knyytis; and he smoot Sobach, the prince of chyualrie, which was deed anoon.
Nanso Aramfo no guan fii Israelfo no anim bio. Saa bere no, Dawid asraafo no kunkum nteaseɛnamkafo ahanson ne apɔnkɔsotefo mpem aduanan a Sobak a na ɔyɛ wɔn sahene no ka ho.
19 Forsothe alle kyngis, that weren in the help of Adadezer, siyen that thei weren ouercomun of Israel, and thei maden pees with Israel, and serueden hem; and Sireis dredden to yyue help to the sones of Amon.
Bere a ahemfo a wɔhyɛ Hadadeser ase no huu sɛ Israel adi wɔn so nkonim no, wɔmaa wɔn nsa so, na wɔbɛyɛɛ Israelfo nkoa. Ɛno akyi no, Aramfo suroo sɛ wɔbɛboa Amonfo.
