1 Hagi mago'a kna evutegeno, Amoni vahe kini ne' Nahasi'a frigeno nemofo Hanuni agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.
Some time later, Nahash, the king of the Ammon people-group, died. Then his son Hanun became their king.
2 Hagi Deviti'a amanage hu'ne, nagra Hanunina knare avu'avaza huntesnue, na'ankure nafa'amo Nahasi'a nagrira knare avu'ava kora hunante'ne. Anage nehuno Hanunina nefa'ma fri'nea zante Hanuni zamasunku ke ome huntehogu kato vahera Deviti'a huzmante'ne. Hagi ana'ma hige'za Deviti eri'za vahe'amo'za nefa'ma frigeno'ma mani'nea zante Hanuni kenaku Amoni vahe mopafi e'naze.
[When] David [heard about that, he] thought [to himself], “Nahash was kind to me, so I will be kind to his son.” So David sent some officials there, to tell Hanun that he was sorry to hear that Hanun’s father [had died]. But when David’s officials came to Hanun in the land where the Ammon people-group lived,
3 Hianagi Amoni kumate kva vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za Hanunina asmi'naze, Kagrama antahinana ama'i vahe'tmima Deviti'ma huzmantege'zma azana, negafa'ma fri'nea zante zamasunku ke hugantenaku aze hunka kagesa antahino? I'o, ha' eme hurante'naku mopatia afure'za kenaku e'naze.
the leaders of the Ammon people-group said to Hanun, “Do you think that it is really to honor your father that King David is sending these men to say that he is sorry that your father died? [We think that] his men have come to (look around/spy) our city in order to determine how his [army] can conquer us.”
4 Hazageno Hanuni'a Deviti'ma huzmantege'zama e'naza vahetmina zamazerino zamagi zamazokara harenezmanteno, zamariga avamenteti kenazmia ahe vatro hutere huteno huzmantege'za ete vu'naze.
Hanun [believed what they said, so he commanded some soldiers to] seize the officials whom David had sent, and shave off their beards, and [insult them by] cutting off the lower part of their robes, and then send them away. [So his soldiers did that].
5 Hagi ana nanekema Devitima eme asamizageno'a, eri'za vahe'arami huzmantege'za e'za amanage hu'za ana vahetmina eme zamasami'naze, kini ne'mo'a amanage hie, Jeriko kumate mani'nenkeno tamagitamazoka'mo'a hagetena eho huno hu'ne. Na'ankure zamagrira tusi'a zamagazema hu avu'ava'ma huzmantegeno zamagazema hiazanku anagea hu'ne.
The officials were greatly humiliated/ashamed. When David found out about what had happened to his officials, he sent some messengers to them to tell them, “Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown again, and then return home.”
6 Hagi Amoni vahe'mo'zane, Hanuni'enema ke'za antahi'za hazama zamagrama haza avu'avamo'ma Devitima azeri arimpama nehegeno'a, karisifima mani'neza zamaza hu'za Devitima ha'ma hunte'naza vahetamine karisiraminema mizasenazana Messopotamia kumateti'ene, Aram-ma'aka kumateti'ene, Zoba kumatetira, kna'amo'a 30 tausen hu'nea silva zagoreti ome mizase'naze.
Then the [leaders of the] Ammon people-group realized that they had greatly insulted [IDM] David. So Hanun and some of his officials sent about (37,000 pounds/34,000 kg.) of silver to hire chariots and chariot-drivers from [the] Aram-Naharaim, Aram-Maacah and Zobah [regions of Syria northeast of Israel].
7 Hagi ana zago'a ome zami'za 32tauseni'a karisiraminki, Ma'aka kumate kini ne'ene maka sondia vahe'araminena zamavare'za e'za, Medeba kumate seli nona eme ki'za mani'naze. Hagi anama nehazage'za Amoni sondia vahe'mo'za zamagra rankumapinti Israeli vahe ha' huzmante'naku atiramiza e'naze.
They hired 32,000 chariots and chariot-drivers, as well as the king of [the] Maacah [region] and his army. They came and set up their tents near Medeba [town in Moab region]. The soldiers from the Ammon people-group also marched out and (stood in their positions/arranged themselves for battle) [at the entrance to their capital city, Rabbah].
8 Hagi Deviti'ma ana'ma haza nanekema nentahino'a, Joapune maka hankave sondia vahetmina huzmantege'za ha' ome huzmantenaku vu'naze.
When David heard about that, he sent Joab and all his army.
9 Hagi Amoni kumate sondia vahe'mo'za rankumapintira etirami'za rankumamofo kafante emanimpi hu'za ha hunaku otizageno, mago'a kini vahe'mo'zama zamazama hunaku'ma e'naza kini vahe'mo'zane, sondia vahe'mo'zanena hahunaku zamagranena hofa agupofi eme retro hu'za oti'naze.
The soldiers of the Ammon people-group came out of their city and lined up for battle at the entrance to [their capital city, Rabbah]. Meanwhile, the other kings who had come [with their armies] stood in their positions in the open fields.
10 Hagi Joapu'ma keama ha' vahe'amozama amigane avuganema maninpi hu'za otizageno, knare'ma hu'za ha'ma nehaza hankave sondia vahetmina huzmantege'za Aramu sondia vahe'ene hara ome hunaku manimpi hu'za oti'naze.
Joab saw that there were groups of enemy soldiers in front of his troops and behind his troops. So he selected some of the best Israeli troops and put them in positions to fight against the soldiers of Syria.
11 Hagi mago'ama maniza sondia vahetmina negna Abisai azampi antegeno, Abisai'a zamavareno Amoni vahe'mokizmi hara huzmantenaku manimpi hu'naze.
He appointed his [older] brother Abishai to be the commander of his other soldiers and he told them to (stand in their positions/arrange themselves) in front of [the army of] the Ammon people-group.
12 Ana nehuno Joapu'a negna Abisaina amanage huno asmi'ne, Siria ha' vahe'mo'zama tusiza hu'za hankavema tiza ha'ma hunante'snageta eta eme naza hiho. Hagi Amoni vahe'mo'zama kagri'ma hankavetiza ha'ma hugantesnagena, nagra e'na eme kaza hugahue.
Joab said to them, “If the soldiers from Syria are too strong for us to defeat them, then your soldiers must come and help us. But if the soldiers from the Ammon people-group are too strong for you to defeat them, then my soldiers will come and help your men.
13 Hagi korora osunka hankavetigeta, vahetiagu'ene Anumzanti'amofo rankumaku'ene ha' vaheti'aramina hara huzmantamnena, Ra Anumzamo'ma kesigenoma knare'ma haniazana amne agra hugahie.
We must be strong/courageous, and fight hard to [defend] our people and our cities (that belong to/where we worship) our God. I will pray that Yahweh will do what he considers to be good.”
14 Hagi Joapu'ene sondia vahe'amozama Siria sondia vahetmima ha'ma ome huzmantage'za, ana Siria vahe'mo'za atre'za fre'naze.
So Joab and his troops [advanced to] fight the army of Syria, and the soldiers from Syria ran away from them.
15 Hagi Amoni sondia vahe'mo'zama kazama Siria sondia vahe'mo'zama koro'ma frage'za, zamagranena atre'za Abisainku koro hu'za fre'za rankumamofo agu'afi ufre'naze. Anama hazageno'a Joapu'a atreno Jerusalemi kumate vu'ne.
And when the soldiers of the Ammon people-group saw that the soldiers from Syria were running away, they also started to run away from Abishai and his army, and they retreated back inside the city. So Joab [and his army] returned to Jerusalem.
16 Hagi Siria sondia vahe'mo'zama kazama, Israeli sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huzmagaterage'za, Yufretisi timofo kantu kazigama mani'naza sondia vahetmintega eme zamazama hanagura kato vahe huzmantazage'za kea eri'za vu'naze. Hagi e'i ana sondia vahetmimofo ugota kva vahezmia Sofakikino, agra Hadadezeri sondia vahetamintera ugota kva ne' mani'ne.
After [the leaders of the army of] Syria realized that they had been defeated by [the army of] Israel, they sent messengers to [another part of Syria on] the east side of the [Euphrates] river, and brought troops from there [to the battle area], with Shophach, the commander of Hadadezer’s army, leading them.
17 Hagi anankema Deviti'ma nentahino'a, mika Israeli sondia vahetmina zamazeri retru nehuno zamavareno Jodani tina takaheno kantu kaziga ha' ome huzmante'naku vu'naze. Hagi Deviti'ma kantu kazigama vigeno'a, Siria sondia vahe'mo'za hahunte'naze.
When David heard about that, he gathered all the Israeli soldiers, and they crossed the Jordan [River]. They advanced and took their battle positions to attack the army of Syria.
18 Hagi Siria sondia vahe'mo'za Israeli sondia vahetminkura koro frazageno, Deviti sondia vahe'mo'zama karisifima vano nehu'za ha'ma nehaza vahera 7tauseni'a vahe nezamahe'za, mopafima vano nehu'za ha'ma nehaza vahera 40tauseni'a nezmahe'za, ana sondia vahetmimofo kva ne' Sofakinena ana hapi ahe'naze.
But the army of Syria ran away from the soldiers of Israel. However, David’s soldiers killed 7,000 of their chariot-drivers and 40,000 other soldiers. They also killed Shophach, their army commander.
19 Hagi Hadadezeri eri'za vahe'mo'zama kazama Israeli sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huzmagaterazage'za, Devitinte e'za zamarimpa fruma hu'za manisaza naneke eme nehu'za agri agorga'a mani'zageno, Siria vahe'mo'za ru'enena Amoni vahetega eme ante'za zamaza osu'naze.
When the kings who had been ruled by Hadadezer realized that they had been defeated by the Israeli army, they made peace with David, and agreed to allow him to rule them. So the rulers of Syria did not want to help the rulers of the Ammon people-group any more.
