I Paralipomenon 19
1 Accidit autem ut moreretur Naas rex filiorum Ammon, et regnaret filius eius pro eo.
And it was after thus and he died Nahash [the] king of [the] people of Ammon and he reigned son his in place of him.
2 Dixitque David: Faciam misericordiam cum Hanon filio Naas: praestitit enim mihi pater eius gratiam. Misitque David nuncios ad consolandum eum super morte patris sui. Qui cum pervenissent in terram filiorum Ammon, ut consolarentur Hanon,
And he said David I will do loyalty - with Hanun [the] son of Nahash for he did father his with me loyalty and he sent David messengers to comfort him on father his and they came [the] servants of David into [the] land of [the] people of Ammon to Hanun to comfort him.
3 dixerunt principes filiorum Ammon ad Hanon: Tu forsitan putas, quod David honoris causa in patrem tuum miserit qui consolentur te: nec animadvertis quod ut explorent, et investigent, et scrutentur terram tuam, venerint ad te servi eius.
And they said [the] officials of [the] people of Ammon to Hanun ¿ [is] honoring David father your in view your for he has sent to you comforters ¿ not in order to explore and to overthrow and to spy out the land have they come servants his to you.
4 Igitur Hanon pueros David decalvavit, et rasit, et praecidit tunicas eorum a natibus usque ad pedes, et dimisit eos.
And he took Hanun [the] servants of David and he shaved them and he cut off robes their in the middle to the buttock[s] and he sent away them.
5 Qui cum abiissent, et hoc amandassent David, misit in occursum eorum (grandem enim contumeliam sustinuerant) et praecepit ut manerent in Iericho, donec cresceret barba eorum, et tunc reverterentur.
And people went and they told to David on the men and he sent to meet them for they were the men humiliated exceedingly and he said the king remain at Jericho until that it will grow back beard your and you will return.
6 Videntes autem filii Ammon, quod iniuriam fecissent David, tam Hanon, quam reliquus populus, miserunt mille talenta argenti, ut conducerent sibi de Mesopotamia, et de Syria Maacha, et de Soba currus et equites.
And they saw [the] people of Ammon that they had made themselves odious with David and he sent Hanun and [the] people of Ammon one thousand talent[s] of silver to hire for themselves from Aram Naharaim and from Aram Maacah and from Zobah chariotry and horsemen.
7 Conduxeruntque triginta duo millia curruum, et regem Maacha cum populo eius. Qui cum venissent, castrametati sunt e regione Medaba. Filii quoque Ammon congregati de urbibus suis, venerunt ad bellum.
And they hired for themselves two and thirty thousand chariot[s] and [the] king of Maacah and people his and they came and they encamped before Medeba and [the] people of Ammon they gathered from cities their and they came for battle.
8 Quod cum audisset David, misit Ioab, et omnem exercitum virorum fortium:
And he heard David and he sent Joab and all [the] army the warriors.
9 egressique filii Ammon, direxerunt aciem iuxta portam civitatis: reges autem, qui ad auxilium eius venerant, separatim in agro steterunt.
And they went out [the] people of Ammon and they deployed battle [the] entrance of the city and the kings who they had come to alone them [were] in the open country.
10 Igitur Ioab intelligens bellum ex adverso, et post tergum contra se fieri, elegit viros fortissimos de universo Israel, et perrexit contra Syrum.
And he saw Joab that it was [the] face of the battle against him face and back and he chose from every chosen [man] in Israel and he deployed to meet Aram.
11 Reliquam autem partem populi dedit sub manu Abisai fratris sui; et perrexerunt contra filios Ammon.
And [the] rest of the people he put in [the] hand of Abishai brother his and they deployed to meet [the] people of Ammon.
12 Dixitque: Si vicerit me Syrus, auxilio eris mihi: si autem superaverint te filii Ammon, ero tibi in praesidium.
And he said if it will be [too] strong for me Aram and you will become for me deliverance. And if [the] people of Ammon they will be [too] strong for you and I will deliver you.
13 Confortare, et agamus viriliter pro populo nostro, et pro urbibus Dei nostri: Dominus autem quod in conspectu suo bonum est, faciet.
Be strong so let us show ourselves strong for people our and for [the] cities of God our and Yahweh the good in view his he will do.
14 Perrexit ergo Ioab, et populus qui cum eo erat, contra Syrum ad praelium: et fugavit eos.
And he drew near Joab and the people which [was] with him before Aram for battle and they fled from before him.
15 Porro filii Ammon videntes quod fugisset Syrus, ipsi quoque fugerunt Abisai fratrem eius, et ingressi sunt civitatem: reversusque est etiam Ioab in Ierusalem.
And [the] people of Ammon they saw that it had fled Aram and they fled also they from before Abishai brother his and they went the city towards and he went Joab Jerusalem.
16 Videns autem Syrus quod cecidisset coram Israel, misit nuncios, et adduxit Syrum, qui erat trans fluvium: Sophach autem princeps militiae Adarezer, erat dux eorum.
And it saw Aram that they had been defeated before Israel and they sent messengers and they brought out Aram which [was] from [the] other side of the river and Shophach [the] commander of [the] army of Hadadezer [was] before them.
17 Quod cum annunciatum esset David, congregavit universum Israel, et transivit Iordanem, irruitque in eos, et direxit ex adverso aciem, illis contra pugnantibus.
And it was told to David and he gathered all Israel and he passed over the Jordan and he came to them and he deployed against them and he deployed David to meet Aram battle and they fought with him.
18 Fugit autem Syrus Israel: et interfecit David de Syris septem millia curruum, et quadraginta millia peditum, et Sophach exercitus principem.
And it fled Aram from to before Israel and he killed David of Aram seven thousand charioteer[s] and forty thousand man on foot and Shophach [the] commander of the army he killed.
19 Videntes autem servi Adarezer se ab Israel esse superatos, transfugerunt ad David, et servierunt ei: noluitque ultra Syria auxilium praebere filiis Ammon.
And they saw [the] servants of Hadadezer that they had been defeated before Israel and they made peace with David and they served him and not it was willing Aram to deliver [the] people of Ammon again.
