2 Sama’ila 10
1 Ana nan sai sarkin Ammonawa ya rasu, ɗansa Hanun kuwa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
And it came to pass after this that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Annon his son reigned in his stead.
2 Dawuda ya yi tunani a ransa ya ce, “Zan yi wa Hanun ɗan Nahash alheri kamar yadda mahaifinsa ya yi mini.” Saboda haka sai Dawuda ya aiki jakadu su yi masa ta’aziyyar mutuwar mahaifinsa. Sa’ad da mutanen Dawuda suka isa ƙasar Ammonawa,
And David said, I will shew mercy to Annon the son of Naas, as his father dealt mercifully with me. And David sent to comfort him concerning his father by the hand of his servants; and the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon.
3 sai manyan mutanen Ammonawa suka ce wa Hanun shugabansu, “Kana tsammani Dawuda yana girmama mahaifinka ne da ya aiko da jakadu su kawo maka ta’aziyya? Ai, wayo ya yi don yă ga asirin birninmu, yă san ƙarfinmu, yă kuma ci mu da yaƙi.”
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Annon their lord, [Is it] to honour thy father before thee that David has sent comforters to thee? Has not David rather sent his servants to thee that they should search the city, and spy it out and examine it?
4 Saboda haka Hanun ya kama mutanen Dawuda ya aske rabin gemun kowannensu, ya yayyage rigunarsu daidai ɗuwawu, sa’an nan ya sallame su.
And Annon took the servants of David, and shaved their beards, and cut off their garments in the midst as far as their haunches, and sent them away.
5 Sa’ad da aka gaya wa Dawuda game da wannan, sai ya aiki manzanni su taryi waɗannan mutanen da aka ci mutuncinsu, gama an wulaƙanta su ƙwarai. Sai sarki ya ce musu, “Ku dakata a Yeriko har sai gemunku ya sāke girma, sa’an nan ku dawo.”
And they brought David word concerning the men; and he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly dishonoured: and the king said, Remain in Jericho till your beards have grown, and [then] ye shall return.
6 Da Ammonawa suka gane cewa Dawuda ya ji fushi da su sosai saboda abin da suka yi, sai suka yi hayar sojojin ƙasar Arameyawa dubu ashirin daga Bet Rehob da Aram-Zoba, suka kuma yi hayar sarkin Ma’aka tare da mutum dubu ɗaya, suka kuma yi hayar maza dubu goma sha biyu daga Tob.
And the children of Ammon saw that the people of David were ashamed; and the children of Ammon sent, and hired the Syrians of Baethraam, and the Syrians of Suba, and Roob, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Amalec with a thousand men, and Istob with twelve thousand men.
7 Da jin haka, Dawuda ya tura Yowab da dukan sojojin yaƙi.
And David heard, and sent Joab and all his host, [even] the mighty men.
8 Ammonawa suka fita suka ja dāgār yaƙi a ƙofar shiga birninsu, yayinda Aram-Zoba, da na Rehob, da mutane Tob, da kuma na Ma’aka, suka ja tasu dāgār a karkara.
And the children of Ammon went forth, and set the battle in array by the door of the gate: [those] of Syria, Suba, and Roob, and Istob, and Amalec, being by themselves in the field.
9 Yowab ya ga cewa an ja masa dāgār yaƙi gaba da baya; saboda haka sai ya zaɓi waɗansu shahararrun sojoji cikin Isra’ila, ya sa su gabza da Arameyawa.
And Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him from that which was opposed in front and from behind, and he chose out [some] of all the young men of Israel, and they set themselves in array against Syria.
10 Ya sa sauran mutanen a ƙarƙashin Abishai ɗan’uwansa, ya sa su gabza da Ammonawa.
And the rest of the people he gave into the hand of Abessa his brother, and they set the battle in array opposite to the children of Ammon.
11 Yowab ya ce, “In Arameyawa suka fi ƙarfina, sai ku kawo mini gudummawa; amma in Ammonawa suka fi ƙarfinku, sai mu kawo muku gudummawa.
And he said, If Syria be too strong for me, then shall ye help me: and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then will we be ready to help thee.
12 Ku yi ƙarfin hali, mu kuma yi yaƙi da ƙarfin zuciya saboda mutanenmu da kuma birane Allahnmu. Ubangiji zai yi abin da yake da kyau a idanunsa.”
Be thou courageous, and let us be strong for our people, and for the sake of the cities of our God, and the Lord shall do that which is good in his eyes.
13 Sa’an nan Yowab da rundunar da take tare da shi suka ci gaba don su gabza da Arameyawa, Arameyawa kuwa suka gudu a gabansa.
And Joab and his people with him advanced to battle against Syria, and they fled from before him.
14 Da Ammonawa suka ga Arameyawa suna gudu, sai su ma suka ruga da gudu a gaban Abishai, suka shiga cikin birni. Sa’an nan Yowab ya komo Urushalima daga wurin yaƙin da ya yi da Ammonawa.
And the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, and they fled from before Abessa, and entered into the city: and Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
15 Bayan Arameyawa suka ga Isra’ila ta ci su da yaƙi, sai suka sāke tattara kansu.
And the Syrians saw that they were worsted before Israel, and they gathered themselves together.
16 Hadadezer sarkin Zoba ya aika a kawo Arameyawan da suke ƙetaren Kogin Yuferites. Suka iso Helam a ƙarƙashin shugabancin Shobak, shugaban dukan sojojin Hadadezer.
And Adraazar sent and gathered the Syrians from the other side of the river Chalamak, and they came to Aelam; and Sobac the captain of the host of Adraazar [was] at their head.
17 Da aka gaya wa Dawuda wannan, sai ya tattara dukan Isra’ila, ya ƙetare Urdun, ya je Helam. Arameyawa suka ja dāgār yaƙinsu, suka kara da Dawuda.
And it was reported to David, and he gathered all Israel, and went over Jordan, and came to Aelam: and the Syrians set the battle in array against David, and fought with him.
18 Amma Arameyawa suka gudu a gaban Isra’ila, Dawuda kuwa ya kashe mahayan keken yaƙinsu ɗari bakwai, da sojojin ƙasa dubu arba’in. Ya bugi Shobak, shugaban ƙungiyar sojansu ya kuwa mutu a can.
And Syria fled from before Israel, and David destroyed of Syria seven hundred chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and he smote Sobac the captain of his host, and he died there.
19 Sa’ad da dukan sarakuna waɗanda suke abokan tarayya na Hadadezer suka ga Isra’ila sun ci su da yaƙi, sai suka yi sulhu da Isra’ilawa, suka kuma zama bayinsu. Wannan ya sa Arameyawa suka ji tsoron ƙara kai wa Ammonawa gudummawa.
And all the kings the servants of Adraazar saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, and they went over to Israel, and served them: and Syria was afraid to help the children of Ammon any more.
