2 Samuel 10
1 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, eze ndị Amọn nwụrụ. Hanọn nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
After this, the King of the children of Ammon dyed, and Hanun his sonne reigned in his steade.
2 Mgbe ahụ, Devid chere sị, “Aga m egosi Hanọn nwa Nahash obi ebere dịka nna ya si gosi m obi ebere.” Ya mere, Devid zipụrụ ndị ozi ka ha gaa kasịe ya obi nʼihi ọnwụ nna ya. Mgbe ndị ikom Devid rutere nʼala ndị Amọn,
Then sayde Dauid, I will shewe kindnesse vnto Hanun the sonne of Nahash, as his father shewed kindnesse vnto me. And Dauid sent his seruantes to comfort him for his father. So Dauids seruants came into the lande of the children of Ammon.
3 ndịisi ala Amọn sịrị Hanọn bụ onyenwe ha, “Ị na-eche na Devid na-akwanyere nna gị ụgwụ site na izite ndị ozi ya ka ha bịa kasịe gị obi? Ọ bụ na Devid eziteghị ha ịbịakwute gị, naanị ka ha bịa mee nledo nʼobodo a, nyochapụta ya ma kwatuo ya?”
And the princes of the children of Ammon sayde vnto Hanun their lorde, Thinkest thou that Dauid doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters to thee? hath not Dauid rather sent his seruants vnto thee, to search the citie, and to spie it out, and to ouerthrow it?
4 Nʼihi nke a, Hanọn jidere ndị ozi Devid nʼike, kpụchapụ otu mpaghara afụọnụ nwoke ọbụla, bipụkwa uwe mwụda ha nʼetiti ike ha, zilaga ha.
Wherefore Hanun tooke Dauids seruants, and shaued off the halfe of their beard, and cut off their garments in the middle, euen to their buttockes, and sent them away.
5 Mgbe a gwara Devid ihe mere, o zipụrụ ndị ozi ka ha gaa zute ndị ikom ahụ, nʼihi na e mere ha ihe ihere nʼebe ọ dị ukwuu. Eze sịrị, “Nọdụnụ na Jeriko ruo mgbe afụọnụ unu tolitere, mgbe ahụ unu ga-alọta.”
When it was told vnto Dauid, he sent to meete them (for the men were exceedingly ashamed) and the King sayde, Tary at Iericho, vntill your beards be growen, then returne.
6 Ma mgbe ndị Amọn chọpụtara na ha abụrụla ihe ịsọ oyi nʼebe Devid nọ, ha gara goo iri puku ndị agha abụọ ji ụkwụ eje site nʼAram, Bet-Rehob nakwa Zoba. Ha gokwara eze Maaka ya na puku ndị ikom, tinyekwara iri puku ndị ikom na puku abụọ ọzọ site nʼala Tob.
And when the children of Ammon sawe that they stanke in the sight of Dauid, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Aramites of the house of Rehob, and the Aramites of Zoba, twentie thousande footemen, and of King Maacah a thousand men, and of Ish-tob twelue thousande men.
7 Mgbe Devid nụrụ nke a, o zipụrụ Joab na ndị agha ya niile bụ dike na dimkpa nʼagha.
And when Dauid heard of it, he sent Ioab, and all the hoste of the strong men.
8 Ndị Amọn pụtara doo onwe ha nʼusoro ibu agha, nʼọnụ ụzọ ama nke obodo ha. Ma ndị Aram, ndị si Zoba na Rehob, na ndị ikom Tob na Maaka, nọpụrụ onwe ha na mbara ala.
And the children of Ammon came out, and put their armie in araye at the entring in of the gate: and the Aramites of Zoba, and of Rehob, and of Ish-tob, and of Maacah were by themselues in the fielde.
9 Mgbe Joab hụrụ na agha dị megide ya nʼihu na azụ, ọ họpụtara ụfọdụ ndị ọkachamara site nʼetiti ndị agha Izrel, doo ha nʼusoro izute ndị Aram.
When Ioab saw that the front of the battel was against him before and behinde, he chose of all the choyse of Israel, and put them in aray against the Aramites.
10 O tinyere ndị ikom fọdụrụ nʼokpuru ọchịchị Abishai, nwanne ya, zipụkwa ha izute ndị Amọn nʼagha.
And the rest of the people hee deliuered into the hande of Abishai his brother, that hee might put them in aray against the children of Ammon.
11 Joab sịrị, “Ọ bụrụ na ndị agha Aram akarịa m ike, pụta bịa nyere m aka; ma ọ bụrụkwanụ na ndị Amọn akarịa gị ike, aga m apụta bịa napụta gị.
And he sayde, If the Aramites be stronger then I, thou shalt helpe me, and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, I will come and succour thee.
12 Nwee obi ike, ka anyị lụọ ọgụ a dịka ndị dị ike, nʼihi ndị anyị, na obodo niile nke Chineke anyị. Ka Onyenwe anyị meekwa ihe dị mma nʼanya ya.”
Be strong and let vs be valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God, and let the Lord do that which is good in his eyes.
13 Mgbe ahụ, Joab na ndị agha so ya bịara nso ibuso ndị Aram agha, ha sitere nʼihu ha gbapụ ọsọ.
Then Ioab, and the people that was with him, ioyned in battel with the Aramites, who fled before him.
14 Mgbe ndị Amọn hụrụ ka ndị Aram na-agbapụ ọsọ, ha onwe ha gbakwara ọsọ nʼihu Abishai, gbaba nʼime obodo. Ya mere, Joab sitere nʼịlụso ndị Amọn agha lọghachi, bịa na Jerusalem.
And when the children of Ammon sawe that the Aramites fled, they fled also before Abishai, and entred into the citie. so Ioab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Ierusalem.
15 Mgbe ndị Aram hụrụ na ndị Izrel tigburu ha; ha lara, chịkọtaa onwe ha ọnụ.
And when the Aramites sawe that they were smitten before Israel, they gathered them together.
16 Hadadeza mere ka a kpọta ndị Aram site nʼofe ọzọ nke Osimiri Yufretis. Ha gara Hilam, ha na ọchịagha ndị agha Hadadeza, a na-akpọ Shobak, onye na-edu ha.
And Hadarezer sent, and brought out the Aramites that were beyond the Riuer: and they came to Helam, and Shobach the captaine of the hoste of Hadarezer went before them.
17 Mgbe a gwara Devid banyere nke a, ọ chịkọtara ndị Izrel niile, gafee Jọdan, jeruo Hilam. Ndị Aram doro usoro agha ha izute Devid, lụsokwaa ya agha.
When it was shewed Dauid, then he gathered all Israel together, and passed ouer Iorden and came to Helam: and the Aramites set themselues in aray against Dauid, and fought with him:
18 Ma ha sitere nʼihu ndị Izrel gbaa ọsọ, Devid gburu narị ndị ikom asaa na-anya ụgbọ agha nke ịnyịnya na-adọkpụ. Gbukwaa iri puku ndị agha anọ na-eji ụkwụ eje. O tidara Shobak, bụ ọchịagha ndị agha ha, ọ nwụọ nʼebe ahụ.
And the Aramites fled before Israel: and Dauid destroyed seuen hundreth charets of the Aramites, and fourtie thousande horsemen, and smote Shobach the captaine of his hoste, who dyed there.
19 Mgbe ndị eze niile nọ nʼokpuru ọchịchị Hadadeza hụrụ na Izrel etigbuola ha, ha mere ka ha na ndị Izrel dịrị nʼudo, bụrụkwa ndị nọ nʼokpuru ha. Ya mere, ndị Aram tụrụ egwu inyere ụmụ Amọn aka ọzọ.
And when all the Kings, that were seruants to Hadarezer, saw that they fell before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and serued them. and the Aramites feared to helpe the children of Ammon any more.
