Samuel 2 10
1 Le ɣeyiɣi aɖe megbe la, Amonitɔwo ƒe fia ku eye via Hanun ɖu fia ɖe eteƒe.
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,
2 David gblɔ be, “Manyo dɔ me na Hanun, Nahas ƒe vi abe ale si fofoa nyo dɔ me nam ene.” Ale David dɔ amewo be woado babaa na Hanun le fofoa ƒe ku ta. Esi David ƒe amewo va ɖo Amonitɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi la,
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,
3 Amonitɔwo ƒe amegãwo gblɔ na woƒe kplɔla Hanun be, “Ɖe nèbu be David le bubu dem ye fofo ŋu to ame siawo dɔdɔ ɖe gbɔwò be woado babaa na wò mea? Menye ɖe David dɔ ame siawo be woava tsa ŋku le anyigba la dzi eye yewoaho aʋa ɖe eŋu oa?”
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?
4 Ale Hanun lé David ƒe amewo, ƒlɔ ge afãafã na wo eye wòlã woƒe awuwo ɖe woƒe gɔnu. Ale Hanun do mɔ ameawo.
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.
5 Esi David se nya sia la, edɔ amewo woɖakpe ŋutsuawo kple gbedeasi be woatsi Yeriko va se ɖe esime woƒe ge nato elabena wodo ŋukpe wo ŋutɔ.
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.
6 Esi Amonitɔwo kpɔ be yewozu David ƒe ketɔwo la, wobia aʋawɔla akpe blaeve Aramtɔwo tso Bet Rehobnyigba kple Zobahnyigba dzi kpe ɖe ame akpe ɖeka tso Maaka fia gbɔ kple ame akpe wuieve tso Tobnyigba dzi.
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.
7 Esi David se nya sia la, eɖo Yoab kple aʋakɔ blibo la ɖa.
And whanne Dauid hadde herd this, he sent Joab and al the oost of fiyteris.
8 Amonitɔwo va nɔ woƒe dua ƒe agbo nu hena aʋawɔwɔ le esime Aramtɔwo tso Zoba kple Rehob kple ame siwo tso Tob kple Maaka nɔ wo ɖokui si le gbedzi.
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.
9 Yoab kpɔ be wodze aʋa ɖe ye ŋgɔ kple ye megbe siaa, eya ta etia Israel ƒe asrafo siwo bi ɖe aʋawɔwɔ me, eye wòna woɖakpe aʋa kple Aramtɔwo.
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.
10 Ena akpa evelia si nɔ nɔvia Abisai ƒe kpɔkplɔ te la kpe aʋa kple Amonitɔwo.
Forsothe he bitook to Abisai, his brothir, the tother part of the puple, which dresside scheltrun ayens the sones of Amon.
11 Yoab gblɔ na nɔvia be, “Ne Aramtɔwo sẽ nam akpa la, nàva kpe ɖe ŋunye, ke ne Amonitɔwo sẽ na wò akpa la, mava kpe ɖe ŋuwò.
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;
12 Lé dzi ɖe ƒo, eye na míawɔ aʋa la kalẽtɔe na míaƒe dukɔ kple míaƒe Mawu la ƒe duwo. Yehowa awɔ nu si nyo le eŋkume.”
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.
13 Ale Yoab kple eƒe aʋakɔwo lũ ɖe Aramtɔwo dzi be woakpe aʋa kpli wo eye Aramtɔwo si le wo nu.
Therfor Joab and his puple that was with hym, bigan batel ayens men of Sirie, whiche fledden anoon fro his face.
14 Esi Amonitɔwo kpɔ be Aramtɔwo nɔ sisim la, woawo hã lé du tsɔ le Abisai ŋgɔ eye woɖage ɖe du la me eya ta Yoab trɔ dzo yi Yerusalem.
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.
15 Esime Aramtɔwo kpɔ be Israelviwo ɖu yewo dzi la, wogbugbɔ ƒo ƒu wo ɖokuiwo.
Forsothe men of Sirye sien that thei hadden feld bifor Israel, and thei weren gaderid to gidere.
16 Hadadezer na Aramtɔwo tso tɔsisi la godo yi Helam eye wonɔ Sobak, Hadadezer ƒe aʋafia ƒe kpɔkplɔ te.
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.
17 Esi wogblɔ nya sia na David la, eya ŋutɔ kplɔ Israel ƒe aʋakɔ la yi Helam. Aramtɔwo ho aʋa ɖe David ŋu eye wowɔ aʋa kplii.
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.
18 Ke Aramtɔwo gasi le Israelviwo nu. David wu Aramtɔwo ƒe sɔdola alafa adre kple afɔzɔla akpe blaene. Ede abi woƒe aʋafia, Sobak hã ŋu wòku le afi ma.
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.
19 Esi Hadadezer ƒe kpeɖeŋutɔwo kpɔ be woɖu Aramtɔwo dzi la wona ta eye wozu David tenɔlawo. Tso ɣe ma ɣi la, Aramtɔwo vɔ̃na be yewoagakpe ɖe Amonitɔwo ŋu.
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.
