< II Samuela 10 >

1 MAHOPE mai o ia mau mea, make iho la ke alii o ka poe mamo a Amona, a nohoalii iho la o Hanuna kana keiki ma kona wahi.
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 Olelo iho la o Davida, E lokomaikai aku au ia Hanuna ke keiki a Nahasa, e like me kona makuakane i lokomaikai mai ai ia'u. Hoouna aku la o Davida e hooluolu aku ia ia no kona makuakane ma ka lima o na kanaka ona. A hiki aku la na kanaka o Davida ma ka aina o na maino a Amona.
And David said, I will show 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 A o na alii o na mamo a Amona, i aku la lakou ia Hanuna i ko lakou haku, Ke manao nei anei oe e hoomaikai nei o Davida i kou makuakane i kona hoouna ana mai iou la i na mea hooluolu mai? Aole anei o Davida i hoouna mai i kona mau kanaka e makaikai i ke kulanakauhale, a e hoomakakiu mai, a e hookahuli ia wahi?
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Annon their lord, [Is it] to honour your father before you that David has sent comforters to you? Has not David rather sent his servants to you that they should search the city, and spy it out and examine it?
4 Nolaila, lalau aku la o Hanuna i na kanaka o Davida, a kahi ae la i kekahi aoao o ko lakou umiumi, a okioki iho la i ko lakou kapa mawaena ma ko lakou kikala, a hookuu mai la ia lakou.
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 A hai aku la lakou ia mea ia Davida, alaila hoouna aku la ia e halawai me lakou, no ka mea, ua hilahila loa ua mau kanaka la: i aku la ke alii, E noho oukou i Ieriko, a ulu ae ko oukou umiumi, alaila e hoi mai.
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] you shall return.
6 A ike iho la na mamo a Amona, ua pilau lakou imua o Davida, kii aku la na mamo a Amona, a hoolimalima aku la i ko Suria no Beterehoba, a me ko Suria no Zoba, he iwakalua tausani na koa kaniwawae, me ka tausani hookahi o na kanaka no Maaka ke alii, a me na kanaka no Isetoba he umikumamalua tausani.
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 A lohe ae la o Davida, hoouna aku la oia ia Ioaba, a me ka puali a pau o ka poe ikaika.
And David heard, and sent Joab and all his host, [even] the mighty men.
8 Hele mai la ka poe mamo a Amona iwaho, a hoonohonoho iho la i ke kaua ma kahi e komo ai iloko o ka puka; a ku kaawale mai la ka poe Suria no Zoba, a no Rehoba, no Isetoba, a no Maaka, ma ke kula.
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 A ike aku la o Ioaba i ke alo o na kana, mamua kekahi, a mahope kekahi, alaila wae iho la ia i ka poe ui a pau o ka Iseraela, a hoonohonoho aku la ia lakou e ku e i ka poe Suria.
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 A haawi aku la ia i ka poe i koe ma ka lima o Abisai kona kaikaina, i hoonohonoho aku ai oia ia lakou e ku e i ka poe mamo a Amona.
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 Olelo aku la ia, Ina paha e oi aku ka ikaika o ko Suria i ko'u, alaila e kokua mai oe ia'u, aka, ina paha e oi aku ka ikaika o ka poe mamo a Amona i kou, alaila au e hele aku ai e kokua ia oe.
And he said, If Syria be too strong for me, then shall you help me: and if the children of Ammon be too strong for you, then will we be ready to help you.
12 I nui ka ikaika, a e koa hoi kakou no ko kakou lahuikanaka, a me na kulanakauhale o ko kakou Akua: e hana mai hoi o Iehova e like me ka mea e pono imua o kona mau maka.
Be you 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 Neenee aku la o Ioaba me na kanaka me ia e kaua aku i ko Suria, a hee aku la lakou imua ona.
And Joab and his people with him advanced to battle against Syria, and they fled from before him.
14 A ike ae la ka poe mamo a Amona, ua hee aku la ko Suria, alaila hee aku la hoi lakou imua o Abisai, a komo aku la iloko o ke kulanakauhale. A hoi hou mai la o Ioaba mai ka poe mamo a Amona mai, a hele mai la i Ierusalema.
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 A ike ae la ko Suria ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hoakoakoa ae lakou i kahi hookahi.
And the Syrians saw that they were worsted before Israel, and they gathered themselves together.
16 Kii aku la o Hadarezera, a kai mai la i ko Suria ma kela aoao o I ka muliwai; a hele mai la lakou i Helama: imua hoi o lakou o Sobaka ka lunakaua o Hadarezera.
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 A haiia mai ia ia Davida, hoakoakoa ae ia i ka Iseraela a pau, a hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane, a hiki aku la i Helama: a hoonohonoho aku la ko Suria ia lakou iho e ku e ia Davida, a kaua aku la lakou ia ia.
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 Hee aku la ko Suria imua o ka Iseraela, pepehi iho la o Davida i ko na halekaa ehiku haneri o ko Suria, me na tausani koa hoohololio he kanaha; a pepehi aku la hoi oia ia Sobaka ka lunakaua o lakou, a make iho la ia ilaila.
And Syria fled from before Israel, and David destroyed of Syria seven hundred chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and he struck Sobac the captain of his host, and he died there.
19 A ike ae la ka poe alii a pau o na kauwa a Hadarezera, ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hookuikahi mai la lakou me ka Iseraela, a hookauwa mai la na lakou. Pela i makau ai ko Suria i ke kokua hou aku i ka poe mamo a Amona.
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.
