II Samuel 10
1 Iti saan a nagbayag, natay ti ari dagiti tattao a taga-Amnon, ket simmukat nga ari ti anakna a ni Hanun.
And it came to pass after this, that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
2 Kinuna ni David, “Ipakitak ti kinasayaat kenni Hanun nga anak ni Naas, kas iti panangipakita iti amana iti kinasayaatna kaniak.” Isu nga imbaon ni David dagiti adipenna tapno liwliwaenda ni Hanun maipapan iti amana. Simrek dagiti adipen ni David iti daga dagiti tattao a taga-Ammon.
Then said David, I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me. And David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David’s servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.
3 Ngem imbaga dagiti pangulo dagiti tattao a taga-Ammon kenni Hanun nga apoda, “Mamatika kadi a raraemen ni David ti amam gapu ta nangibaon iti tattao a mangliwliwa kenka? Saan ngata a nangibaon ni David kadagiti adipenna kenka a mangkita ken mangsiim iti siudad tapno parmekenda daytoy?”
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Think you that David does honor your father, that he has sent comforters to you? has not David rather sent his servants to you, to search the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it?
4 Isu nga impatiliw ni Hanun dagiti adipen ni David, impaahitna ti maysa a bangir dagiti barbasda, pinigisna dagiti pagan-anayda agingga iti patongda, ken pinagawidna ida.
Why Hanun took David’s servants, and shaved off the one half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 Idi inlawlawagda daytoy kenni David, nangibaon isuna iti mangsabat kadakuada, ta kasta unay ti bain dagiti lallaki. Kinuna ti ari, “Agtalinaedkayo idiay Jerico agingga nga umatiddog manen dagiti barbasyo ket agsublikayo.”
When they told it to David, he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed: and the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
6 Idi naammoan dagiti tattao a taga-Ammon a bimmangsitdan kenni David, nangibaonda iti mensahero ken tinangdananda dagiti Arameo iti Berehob ken Soba, 20, 000 a magmagna a soldado, ken ti ari ti Maaca nga addaan iti 1, 000 a tattaona, ken dagiti tattao a taga-Tob nga addaan iti 12, 000 pay a lallaki.
And when the children of Ammon saw that they stank before David, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Bethrehob and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and of king Maacah a thousand men, and of Ishtob twelve thousand men.
7 Idi nangegan ni David daytoy, imbaonna ni Joab ken amin nga armada dagiti soldado.
And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
8 Rimmuar dagiti Ammonita ket nagpuestoda a makigubat iti pagserrekan iti ruangan ti siudadda, kabayatan a dagiti Arameo a taga-Soba, taga-Rehob, ken dagiti lallaki a taga-Tob ken Maaca ket nakapuesto iti nalawa a tay-ak.
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entering in of the gate: and the Syrians of Zoba, and of Rehob, and Ishtob, and Maacah, were by themselves in the field.
9 Idi makita ni Joab dagiti nakapuesto a makigubat a naisaaden kenkuana iti sango ken likodanna, nangpili isuna kadagiti kalalaingan a mannakigubat ti Israel ket impuestona ida maibusor kadagiti Arameo.
When Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind, he chose of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians:
10 Intedna met dagiti nabatbati iti armada iti panangbilin ni Abisai a kabsatna ket pinagpuestona ida a maibusor iti armada ti Ammon.
And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abishai his brother, that he might put them in array against the children of Ammon.
11 Kinuna ni Joab, “No napigsa unay dagiti Arameo para kaniak, masapul ngarud a tulongannak, sika Abisai.” Ngem no napigsa unay ti armada ti Ammon para kenka, umayak ngarud ket tulonganka.
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then you shall help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for you, then I will come and help you.
12 Papigsaenyo ti pakinakemyo ken ipakitatayo a napigsatayo para kadagiti tattaotayo ken para kadagiti siudad iti Diostayo, ta aramiden ni Yahweh no ania ti naimbag para iti panggepna.”
Be of good courage, and let us play the men for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the LORD do that which seems him good.
13 Isu a dimmarup ni Joab ken dagiti soldado ti armadana maibusor kadagiti Arameo, a napilitan a naglibas manipud iti armada ti Israel.
And Joab drew near, and the people that were with him, to the battle against the Syrians: and they fled before him.
14 Idi makita ti armada ti Ammon a naglibas dagiti Arameo, naglibasda met manipud kenni Abisai ket nagsublida iti siudad. Kalpasanna, nagsubli ni Joab manipud kadagiti tattao a taga-Ammon ket nagsubli idiay Jerusalem.
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, then fled they also before Abishai, and entered into the city. So Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
15 Ket idi nakita dagiti Arameo a parparmeken idan ti Israel, nagtitiponda manen.
And when the Syrians saw that they were smitten before Israel, they gathered themselves together.
16 Kalpasanna, nangibaon ni Adadezer para kadagiti bunggoy ti Arameo manipud pay iti ballasiw ti Karayan Eufrates. Napanda iti Helam, kaduada ni Sobac a pangulo iti armada ni Adadezer iti sangoda.
And Hadarezer sent, and brought out the Syrians that were beyond the river: and they came to Helam; and Shobach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them.
17 Idi naipadamag daytoy kenni David, inummongna amin nga Israel, bimmalasiwda iti Jordan ket nakadanonda idiay Helam. Nagpuesto a makigubat dagiti Arameo maibusor kenni David ket ginubatda isuna.
And when it was told David, he gathered all Israel together, and passed over Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Syrians set themselves in array against David, and fought with him.
18 Naglibas manipud iti Israel dagiti Arameo. Pinatay ni David iti 700 a soldado a nakakarwahe ken 40, 000 a nakakabalio a soldado. Nasugatan ni Sobac a pangulo iti armadada ket natay sadiay.
And the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew the men of seven hundred chariots of the Syrians, and forty thousand horsemen, and smote Shobach the captain of their host, who died there.
19 Idi nakita dagiti ari nga agserserbi kenni Adadezer a pinarmek idan ti Israel, nakikappiada ken nagpaiturayda iti Israel. Isu a mabutengen dagiti Arameo a tumulong pay kadagiti tattao ti Ammon.
And when all the kings that were servants to Hadarezer saw that they were smitten before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and served them. So the Syrians feared to help the children of Ammon any more.
