I Oihanaalii 19
1 MAHOPE mai o ia mea, make iho la o Nahasa ke alii o na mamo a Amona, a nohoalii iho la o Hanuna ma kona wahi.
And it came to pass after this, [that] Naas the king of the children of Ammon died, and Anan his son reigned in his stead.
2 Olelo iho la o Davida, E lokomaikai no wau ia Hanuna ke keiki a Nahasa; no ka mea, i lokomaikai mai kona makuakane ia'u. Hoouna aku la o Davida i na elele e hooluolu aku ia ia no kona makuakane. A hiki aku la na elele o Davida i ka aina o na mamo a Amona, io Hanuna la, e hooluolu ia ia.
And David said, I will act kindly toward Anan the son of Naas, as his father acted kindly towards me. And David sent messengers to condole with him on the death of his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Anan, to comfort him.
3 Aka, o na alii o na mamo a Amona, i aku la lakou ia Hanuna, Ke manao nei anei oe, e hoomaikai mai o Davida i kou makuakane i kona hoouna ana mai iou la i na mea hooluolu? Aole anei i hele mai kana mau kauwa iou nei e makaikai, a e hookahuli, a e hoomakakiu mai i ka aina?
And the chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Anan, Is it to honour thy father before thee, that David has sent comforters to thee? Have not his servants come to thee that they might search the city, and to spy out the land?
4 Nolaila, lalau mai la o Hanuna i na kauwa a Davida, a kahi ae la i ko lakou umiumi, a okioki iho la i ko lakou mau aahu mawaena, ma ko lakou kikala, a kipaku mai la ia lakou.
And Anan took the servants of David, and shaved them, and cut off the half of their garments as far as their tunic, and sent them away.
5 Hele mai la kekahi, a hai aku la ia Davida i ka mea i hanaia mai i ua mau kanaka la. Hoouna aku ia ia e halawai me lakou: no ka mea, ua hilahila loa lakou. I aku la ke alii, E noho oukou ma Ieriko, a ulu ae ko oukou umiumi, alaila e hoi mai
And there came men to report to David concerning the men: and he sent to meet them, for they were greatly disgraced: and the king said, Dwell in Jericho until your beards have grown, and return.
6 A ike iho la na mamo a Amona, ua pilau lakou imua o Davida, hoouka aku la o Hanuna me na mamo a Amona i na talena kala he tausani e hoolimalima no lakou i na halekaa a me na hoohololio mai Mesopotamia, a mai Suria-maaka, a mai Zoba mai.
And the children of Ammon saw that the people of David were ashamed, and Anan and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for themselves chariots and horsemen out of Syria of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria Maacha, and from Sobal.
7 Hoolimalima ae la lakou i na kaa he kanakolukumamalua tausani, a me ke alii o Maaka, a me kona poe kanaka; a hele mai lakou a hoomoana imua o Medeba. Akoakoa mai la na mamo a Amona mailoko mai o ko lakou mau kulanakauhale, a hele mai i ke kaua.
And they hired for themselves two and thirty thousand chariots, and the king of Maacha and his people; and they came and encamped before Medaba: and the children of Ammon assembled out of their cities, and came to fight.
8 A lohe ae la o Davida, hoouna aku la oia ia Ioaba, me ka puali a pau o ka poe ikaika.
And David heard, and sent Joab and all the host of mighty men.
9 Hele mai la ka poe mamo a Amona iwaho, a hoonohonoho i ke kaua ma ke alo o ka puka e komo ai iloko o ke kulanakauhale: a ku okoa ae la na alii i hiki mai ma ke kola.
And the children of Ammon came forth, and set themselves in array for battle by the gate of the city: and the kings that were come forth encamped by themselves in the plain.
10 A ike aku la o Ioaba i ke alo o na kaua, mamua kekahi, a mahope kekahi, wae aku la oia i ka poe ui a pau o ka Iseraela, a hoonohonoho aku la ia lakou e ku e i ko Suria
And Joab saw that they were fronting [him] to fight against him before and behind, and he chose [some] out of all the young men of Israel, and they set themselves in array against the Syrian.
11 A haawi aku la ia i ka poe i koe ma ka lima o Abisai kona kaikaina, a hoonohonoho aku oia ia lakou e ku e i na mamo a Amona.
And the rest of the people he gave into the hand of his brother Abesai, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
12 I aku la oia, Ina e oi aku ka ikaika o ko Suria i ko'u, alaila e kokua mai oe ia'u: aka, ina e oi aku ka ikaika o na mamo a Amona i kou, alaila au e kokua aku ia oe.
And he said, If the Syrian should prevail against me, then shalt thou deliver me: and if the children of Ammon should prevail against thee, then will I deliver thee.
13 I nui ka ikaika, a e koa hoi kakou no ko kakou lahuikanaka, a me na kulanakauhale no ko kakou Akua: a e hana mai o Iehova i ka mea pono imua o kona maka.
Be of good courage, and let us be strong, for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the Lord shall do what [is] good in his eyes.
14 Neenee aku la o Ioaba me na kanaka me ia imua o ko Suria, i ke kaua ana; a hee aku la lakou imua ona.
So Joab and the people that were with him set themselves in battle array against the Syrians, and they fled from them.
15 A ike aku la na mamo a Amona, ua hee aku la ko Suria, alaila hee aku la hoi lakou imua o Abisai kona kaikaina, a komo aku la iloko o ke kulanakauhale. Alaila hele mai la o Ioaba i Ierusalema.
And the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, and they also fled from before Abesai, and from before Joab his brother, and they came to the city: and Joab came to Jerusalem.
16 A ike ae la ko Suria, ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hoouna aku la lakou i na elele, a kai mai la lakou i ko Suria e noho ana ma kela aoao o ka muliwai: a imua o lakou o Sopaka ka lunakoa no Hadarezera.
And the Syrian saw that Israel had defeated him, and he sent messengers, and they brought out the Syrians from beyond the river; and Sophath the commander-in-chief of the forces of Adraazar [was] before them.
17 A hai aku la kekahi ia Davida: a hoakoakoa ae la oia i ka Iseraela a pau, a hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane, a hiki aku la io lakou la, a hoonohonoho aku la i ke kaua ku e ia lakou. Aia hoonohonoho aku ai o Davida i ke kaua ku e ia lakou, alaila lakou i kaua mai me ia.
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and crossed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So David set [his army] in array to fight against the Syrians, and they fought against him.
18 A hee aku la ko Suria imua o ka Iseraela; a pepehi aku la o Davida i na kanaka o na halekaa ehiku tausani, a me na kanaka kaniwawae he kanaha tausani, a make iho la o Sopaka ka lunakaua.
And the Syrians fled from before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand [riders in] chariots, and forty thousand infantry, and he slew Sophath the commander-in-chief of the forces.
19 A ike iho la na kauwa a Hadarezera, ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hookuikahi mai la lakou me Davida, a lilo iho la i poe kauwa nana Aole hoi i manao ko Suria e kokua hou aku i na mamo a Amona.
And the servants of Adraazar saw that they were defeated before Israel, and they made peace with David and served him: and the Syrians would not any more help the children of Ammon.
