1 Tantara 19
1 Ie añe izay le nivilasy t’i Nakase mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneo, le nandimbe aze nifehe i ana-dahi’ey.
After this also Nahash the King of the children of Ammon dyed, and his sonne reigned in his stead.
2 Le hoe t’i Davide: ho tretrezeko t’i Kanone ana’ i Nakase amy te nitretrezen-drae’e. Aa le nañitrifa’ i Davide ìrake hañohò aze ty aman-drae’e. Aa le nimb’an-tane’ o ana’ i Amoneo mb’ amy Kanone ao o mpitoro’ i Davideo hañohò’ aze,
And Dauid said, I will shew kindnesse vnto Hanun the sonne of Nahash, because his father shewed kindnesse vnto me. And Dauid sent messengers to comfort him for his father. So the seruants of Dauid came into the lande of the children of Ammon to Hanun to comfort him.
3 fe hoe o roandria’ o ana’ i Amoneo amy Kanone; Atao’o te hiasy an-drae’o hao t’i Davide, ie nañihitrifa’e mpañohò? tsy mone nimb’ ama’o mb’etoy i mpitoro’e rey hijilojilo naho hitsoetsoeke vaho hitingatingañe an-tane atoy?
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that Dauid doeth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters vnto thee? Are not his seruants come to thee to search, to seeke and to spie out the land?
4 Aa le rinambe’ i Kanone i mpitoro’ i Davide rey vaho niharate’e naho tinampa’e añivo o saro’eo, pak’ am-piambesara’e vaho nanoe’e soike.
Wherefore Hanun tooke Dauids seruants, and shaued them, and cut off their garments by the halfe vnto the buttocks, and sent them away.
5 Nimb’eo amy zao ty nitalily amy Davide i nanoañe indaty reiy. Le nirahe’e ty hifanalaka ama’e; fa loho salatse indaty rey. Le hoe i mpanjakay, Mandiñisa e Ieriko ao ampara’ te mitombo o tateahe’ areoo, izay vaho mimpoly.
And there went certaine and tolde Dauid concerning the men: and he sent to meete them (for the men were exceedingly ashamed) and the King saide, Tarie at Iericho, vntill your beardes be growen: then returne.
6 Ie napota’ o ana’ i Amoneo t’ie mañati-fofots’ amy Davide, le nihitrife’ i Kanone naho o ana’ i Amoneo ty volafoty arivo hañaramà’ iareo sarete naho mpiningi-tsoavala boake Arame-naharaime naho boak’e Arame-maakà vaho boak’ amy Tsobà.
When the children of Ammon saw that they stanke in the sight of Dauid, then sent Hanun and the children of Ammon a thousande talents of siluer to hire them charets and horsemen out of Aram Naharaim and out of Aram Maachah, and out of Zobah.
7 Aa le nañeke sarete telo-ale-tsi-ro’arivo naho ty mpanjaka’ i Maakà rekets’ ondati’eo; le nimb’e Medebà mb’eo iereo vaho nitobe. Nifanontoñe ka o ana’ i Amone boak’ an-drova’eo, le nimb’eo hialy.
And they hired them two and thirty thousande charets, and the King of Maachah and his people, which came and pitched before Medeba: and the children of Ammon gathered themselues together from their cities, and came to the battell.
8 Ie jinanji’ i Davide, le nirahe’e mb’eo t’Ioabe naho ze fonga fanalolahy amy valobohokey.
And when Dauid heard, he sent Ioab and all the hoste of the valiant men.
9 Niavotse o ana’ i Amoneo nandahatse i aliy an-dalambei’ i rovay vaho niereñereñe an-kivoke ey o mpanjaka niavio.
And the children of Ammon came out, and set their battell in aray at the gate of the citie. And the Kings that were come, were by them selues in the fielde.
10 Ie nizoe’ Ioabe te niatrek’ aze aolo naho amboho’ i hotakotakey, le jinobo’e iaby ty fanalolahi’ Israele vaho nampiatrefe’e amo nte-Arameo.
When Ioab saw that the front of the battel was against him before and behinde, then he chose out of all the choyse of Israel, and set him selfe in aray to meete the Aramites.
11 Nafanto’e ho am-pità’ i Abisay rahalahi’e ondaty ila’eo le sindre nilahatse hiatreke amo ana’ i Amoneo.
And the rest of the people he deliuered vnto the hande of Abishai his brother, and they put them selues in aray against the children of Ammon.
12 Aa hoe re, Naho loho maozatse amako o nte-Arameo le ihe ty hañolotse ahy; aa naho maozatse te ama’o ka o ana’ i Amoneo le izaho ty hañolotse azo.
And he saide, If Aram be too strong for me, then thou shalt succour me: and if the children of Ammon preuaile against thee, then I wil succour thee.
13 Mahasibeha le antao tika hamente t’ie maozatse ho am’ondatin-tikañeo naho ho amo rovan’ Añaharen-tikañeo; le hanoe’ Iehovà ze arofoana’e hahasoa.
Be strong, and let vs shewe our selues valiant for our people, and for the cities of our God, and let the Lord doe that which is good in his owne sight.
14 Aa le niheo mb’eo t’Ioabe naho ondaty mpiama’eo nihotakotak’ amo nte Arameo, ie nitriban-day aolo’e eo.
So Ioab and the people that was with him, came neere before the Aramites vnto the battel, and they fled before him.
15 Aa ie nioni’ o ana’ i Amoneo te nilay añe o nte-Arameo le nilay añatrefa’ i Abisay, rahalahi’e ka vaho nimoak’ an-drova ao. Aa le nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime añe t’Ioabe.
And when the children of Ammon sawe that the Aramites fled, they fled also before Abishai his brother, and entred into the citie: so Ioab came to Ierusalem.
16 Ie nirendre’ o nte-Arameo te ginio’ Israele, le nañitrike ìrake, nangalake o nte-Arame alafe’ i Sakaio, rekets’ i Sopake mpifehe’ ty valobohò’ i Hadadezere ho mpiaolo.
And when the Aramites sawe that they were discomfited before Israel, they sent messengers and caused the Aramites to come forth that were beyond the riuer: and Shophach the captaine of the hoste of Hadarezer went before them.
17 Natalily amy Davide, le natonto’e iaby t’Israele naho nitsake Iordaney mb’eo naho nivotrak’ am’ iereo vaho nalaha’e am’ iereo i hotakotakey. Aa ie nalaha’ i Davide amo nte-Arameo i aley le nifandrapaha’e.
And when it was shewed Dauid, he gathered all Israel, and went ouer Iorden, and came vnto them, and put him selfe in aray against them: And when Dauid had put him selfe in battel aray to meete the Aramites, they fought with him.
18 Nilay añ’ atrefa’ Israele o nte-Arameo; le zinevo’ i Davide ty fito-arivo amo nte-Arame an-tsareteo naho ty efats-ale an-tomboke vaho vinono’e t’i Sopake mpifehe’ i valobohòkey.
But the Aramites fled before Israel, and Dauid destroyed of the Aramites seuen thousand charets, and fourtie thousand footemen, and killed Shophach the captaine of the hoste.
19 Ie tendrek’ amo mpitoro’ i Haderezereo te ginio’ Israele, le nifampilongo amy Davide naho nitoroñe aze vaho tsy nimete handrombake o ana’ i Amoneo ka o nte-Arameo.
And when the seruants of Hadarezer sawe that they fell before Israel, they made peace with Dauid, and serued him. And the Aramites would no more succour the children of Ammon.
