< 2 Samuele 10 >

1 ORA, dopo queste cose, avvenne che il re de' figliuoli di Ammon morì; ed Hanun, suo figliuolo, regnò in luogo suo.
And it was after thus and he died [the] king of [the] people of Ammon and he reigned Hanun son his in place his.
2 E Davide disse: Io userò benignità inverso Hanun, figliuolo di Nahas come suo padre usò benignità inverso me. E Davide mandò a consolarlo di suo padre, per li suoi servitori. Ma, quando i servitori di Davide furono giunti nel paese de' figliuoli di Ammon,
And he said David I will do covenant loyalty - with Hanun [the] son of Nahash just as he did father his with me covenant loyalty and he sent David to comfort him by [the] hand of servants his concerning father his and they came [the] servants of David [the] land of [the] people of Ammon.
3 i principali de' figliuoli di Ammon dissero ad Hanun, lor signore: Parti che ciò, che Davide ti ha mandati de' consolatori, sia per onorar tuo padre? non ti ha egli mandati i suoi servitori, per investigar la città, e per ispiarla, e per sovvertirla?
And they said [the] leaders of [the] people of Ammon to Hanun lord their ¿ honoring [is] David father your in view your for he has sent to you comforters ¿ not in order to explore the city and to spy on it and to overthrow it has he sent David servants his to you.
4 Hanun adunque prese i servitori di Davide, e fece lor radere mezza la barba, e tagliare i vestimenti per lo mezzo fino alle natiche; poi li rimandò.
And he took Hanun [the] servants of David and he shaved half of beard their and he cut off robes their at the middle to buttocks their and he sent away them.
5 Ed [essi] fecero assaper la cosa al re Davide; ed egli mandò loro incontro; perciocchè quegli uomini erano grandemente confusi. E il re fece lor dire: Dimorate in Gerico, finchè la barba vi sia ricresciuta; poi ve ne ritornerete.
And people told to David and he sent to meet them for they were the men humiliated very and he said the king remain at Jericho until it will grow back beard your and you will return.
6 Or i figliuoli di Ammon, veggendo che si erano renduti abbominevoli a Davide, mandarono ad assoldare ventimila uomini a piè, de' Siri di Bet-rehob, e dei Siri di Soba; e mille uomini del re di Maaca, e dodicimila di que' di Tob.
And they saw [the] people of Ammon that they had made themselves odious with David and they sent [the] people of Ammon and they hired Aram Beth Rehob and Aram Zobah twenty thousand foot soldier[s] and [the] king of Maacah one thousand man and [the] man of Tob two [plus] ten thousand man.
7 E Davide, avendo ciò inteso, mandò [contro a loro] Ioab, con tutto l'esercito della gente di valore.
And he heard David and he sent Joab and all the army the warriors.
8 E gli Ammoniti uscirono [in campagna], e ordinarono la battaglia in su l'entrata della porta [della città], ed i Siri di Soba e di Rehob, e la gente di Tob e di Maaca, [stavano] da parte nella campagna.
And they went out [the] people of Ammon and they deployed battle [the] entrance of the gate and Aram Zobah and Rehob and [the] man of Tob and Maacah to alone them [were] in the open country.
9 E Ioab, veggendo che la battaglia era volta contro a lui, davanti e dietro, fece una cernita d'infra tutti gli uomini scelti d'Israele, ed ordinò quelli contro a' Siri.
And he saw Joab that it was against him [the] face of the battle from before and from behind and he chose some of all [the] chosen [men] (of Israel *Q(K)*) and he deployed [them] to meet Aram.
10 E diede a condurre il rimanente della gente ad Abisai, suo fratello, e l'ordinò contro a' figliuoli di Ammon; e disse [ad Abisai: ]
And [the] rest of the people he put in [the] hand of Abishai brother his and he deployed [them] to meet [the] people of Ammon.
11 Se i Siri mi superano, soccorrimi; se i figliuoli di Ammon altresì ti superano, io ti soccerrerò.
And he said if it will be [too] strong Aram for me and you will become of me deliverance and if [the] people of Ammon they will be [too] strong for you and I will come to deliver you.
12 Fortificati, e portiamoci valorosamente per lo popolo nostro, e per le città del nostro Dio. E faccia il Signore ciò che gli parrà bene.
Be strong so we may show ourselves strong for people our and for [the] cities of God our and Yahweh he will do the good in view his.
13 Allora Ioab, con la gente ch'egli avea seco, venne a battaglia contro a Siri; ed essi fuggirono d'innanzi a lui.
And he drew near Joab and the people which [was] with him for battle in Aram and they fled from before him.
14 E gli Ammoniti, veggendo che i Siri erano fuggiti, fuggirono anch'essi d'innanzi ad Abisai, ed entrarono dentro alla città. E Ioab se ne ritornò indietro da' figliuoli di Ammon, e venne in Gerusalemme.
And [the] people of Ammon they saw that it had fled Aram and they fled from before Abishai and they went the city and he returned Joab from on [the] people of Ammon and he came Jerusalem.
15 E i Siri, veggendo ch'erano stati sconfitti da Israele, si adunarono insieme.
And it saw Aram that it was defeated before Israel and they gathered themselves together.
16 E Hadarezer mandò a far venire i Siri di là dal fiume; ed essi vennero in Helam; e Sobac, capo dell'esercito di Hadarezer, li conduceva.
And he sent Hadadezer and he brought out Aram which [was] from [the] other side of the River and they came Helam and Shobach [the] commander of [the] army of Hadadezer [was] before them.
17 Ed essendo [ciò] rapportato a Davide, egli adunò tutto Israele, e passò il Giordano, e venne in Helam. E i Siri ordinarono [la battaglia] contro a Davide, e combatterono con lui.
And it was told to David. And he gathered all Israel and he passed over the Jordan and he came Helam towards and they deployed Aram to meet David and they did battle with him.
18 Ma i Siri fuggirono d'innanzi a Israele; e Davide uccise de' Siri [la gente di] settecento carri, e quarantamila uomini a cavallo; percosse eziandio Sobac, capo del loro esercito; ed egli morì quivi.
And it fled Aram from before Israel and he killed David of Aram seven hundred charioteer[s] and forty thousand horsemen and Shobach [the] commander of army its he struck down and he died there.

And they saw all the kings [the] servants of Hadadezer that they were defeated before Israel and they made peace with Israel and they served them and they were afraid Aram to deliver again [the] people of Ammon.
