1 Un pēc tam Amona bērnu ķēniņš nomira, un viņa dēls Anons palika par ķēniņu viņa vietā.
After this, the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his place.
2 Tad Dāvids sacīja: es darīšu žēlastību pie Anona, Nahasa dēla, tā kā viņa tēvs žēlastību darījis pie manis. Un Dāvids nosūtīja un lika viņu iepriecināt caur saviem kalpiem par viņa tēvu; un Dāvida kalpi nāca uz Amona bērnu zemi.
David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent by his servants to comfort him concerning his father. David’s servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.
3 Tad Amona bērnu lielkungi sacīja uz savu kungu Anonu: vai Dāvids tavu tēvu godina tavās acīs, ka viņš ir sūtījis iepriecinātājus pie tevis? Vai Dāvids savus kalpus nav tāpēc sūtījis pie tevis, ka viņš šo pilsētu izklausa un izlūko un izposta?
But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, “Do you think that David honours your father, in that he has sent comforters to you? Hasn’t David sent his servants to you to search the city, to spy it out, and to overthrow it?”
4 Tad Anons ņēma Dāvida kalpus un tiem nodzina pusbārdu un tiem nogrieza vienu drēbju pusi līdz pašiem gurniem un tos atlaida.
So Hanun took David’s servants, shaved off one half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 Kad tas nu Dāvidam tapa zināms, tad viņš tiem sūtīja pretī, jo šie vīri bija ļoti apsmieti. Un ķēniņš tiem lika sacīt: palieciet Jērikū, tiekams jūsu bārda būs ataugusi, un tad nāciet atpakaļ.
When they told David this, he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. The king said, “Wait at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return.”
6 Kad nu Amona bērni redzēja, ka tie bija palikuši smirdoši pie Dāvida, tad Amona bērni nosūtīja un saderēja no BetRekabas Sīriešiem un no Cobas Sīriešiem divdesmit tūkstoš kājniekus un no Maākas ķēniņa tūkstoš vīrus un no Tobas vīriem divpadsmit tūkstoš vīrus.
When the children of Ammon saw that they had become odious to David, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth Rehob and the Syrians of Zobah, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah with one thousand men, and the men of Tob twelve thousand men.
7 Kad Dāvids to dzirdēja, tad viņš sūtīja Joabu un visu to vareno karaspēku.
When David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army of the mighty men.
8 Un Amona bērni izgāja un taisījās uz kaušanos vārtu priekšā, bet tie Sīrieši no Cobas un Rekabas un tie vīri no Tobas un Maākas bija vieni paši savrup laukā.
The children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate. The Syrians of Zobah and of Rehob and the men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the field.
9 Kad nu Joabs redzēja, ka karš pret viņu taisījās no priekšas un no aizmugures, tad viņš izlasīja no visiem jauniem Israēla vīriem un nostājās Sīriešiem pretī.
Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose of all the choice men of Israel and put them in array against the Syrians.
10 Un tos citus ļaudis viņš deva savam brālim Abizajum rokā, un tas nostājās pret Amona bērniem. Un viņš sacīja:
The rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother; and he put them in array against the children of Ammon.
11 Ja Sīrieši būs stiprāki nekā es, tad nāc tu man palīgā, bet ja Amona bērni būs stiprāki nekā tu, tad es tev iešu palīgā.
He said, “If the Syrians are too strong for me, then you shall help me; but if the children of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will come and help you.
12 Turies stipri un lai stipri stāvam priekš mūsu ļaudīm un priekš mūsu Dieva pilsētām, bet Tas Kungs lai dara, kā Viņam labi patīk.
Be courageous, and let’s be strong for our people and for the cities of our God; and may the LORD do what seems good to him.”
13 Un Joabs ar tiem ļaudīm, kas pie viņa bija, gāja kauties Sīriešiem virsū, bet šie bēga viņa priekšā.
So Joab and the people who were with him came near to the battle against the Syrians, and they fled before him.
14 Un kad Amona bērni to redzēja, ka Sīrieši bēga, tad tie arīdzan bēga Abizajus priekšā un nāca pilsētā, un Joabs griezās atpakaļ no Amona bērniem un nāca uz Jeruzālemi.
When the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. Then Joab returned from the children of Ammon and came to Jerusalem.
15 Kad nu Sīrieši redzēja, ka Israēla priekšā bija sakauti, tad tie atkal sapulcējās.
When the Syrians saw that they were defeated by Israel, they gathered themselves together.
16 Un HadadEzers nosūtīja un lika tiem Sīriešiem nākt, kas bija viņpus upes, un tie nāca uz Elamu, un Zobaks, HadadEzera kara lielskungs, gāja viņu priekšā.
Hadadezer sent and brought out the Syrians who were beyond the River; and they came to Helam, with Shobach the captain of the army of Hadadezer at their head.
17 Kad tas Dāvidam tapa sacīts, tad viņš sapulcināja visu Israēli un pārgāja pār Jardāni un nāca uz Elamu, un Sīrieši nostājās Dāvidam pretī un ar to kāvās.
David was told that; and he gathered all Israel together, passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. The Syrians set themselves in array against David and fought with him.
18 Bet Sīrieši bēga Israēla priekšā, un Dāvids nokāva no Sīriešiem septiņsimt ratus un četrdesmit tūkstoš jātniekus; viņš sita arī Zobaku, viņu kara lielkungu, ka tas tur nomira.
The Syrians fled before Israel; and David killed seven hundred charioteers of the Syrians and forty thousand horsemen, and struck Shobach the captain of their army, so that he died there.
19 Kad nu visi ķēniņi, kas bija HadadEzera kalpi, redzēja, ka bija sakauti Israēla priekšā, tad tie derēja mieru ar Israēli un viņam kalpoja, un Sīrieši bijās, uz priekšu nākt palīgā Amona bērniem.
When all the kings who were servants to Hadadezer saw that they were defeated before Israel, they made peace with Israel and served them. So the Syrians were afraid to help the children of Ammon any more.
