2 Samoela 10
1 Ie añe, le nivilasy ty mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneo, vaho nandimbe aze ho mpifehe t’i Khanone, anadahi’ey.
And it came to pass after this, that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
2 Le hoe t’i Davide: Hanolorako isoke t’i Khanone ana’ i Nakase, amy te nañasoa ahy ty rae’e. Aa le nahitri’ i Davide am-pitàm-pitoro’e ty rano manintsiñe hañohòa’e ty aman-drae’e. Le niheo mb’an-tanen’ ana’ i Amone mb’eo o mpitoro’ i Davideo.
And David said: 'I will show kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness unto me.' So David sent by the hand of his servants to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.
3 Fe hoe o ana-dona’ i Amoneo amy Khanone, talè’ iareo: Hiasy an-drae’o hao ty nañitrifa’ i Davide mpañohò ama’o? Te mone nampihitrife’ i Davide hisarisary i rovay o mpitoro’eo handrotsaha’e.
But the princes of the children of Ammon said unto Hanun their lord: 'Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? hath not David sent his servants unto thee to search the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it?'
4 Aa le rinambe’ i Khanone o mpitoro’ i Davideo naho niharate’e ty vaki’ o somo’eo naho tinampa’e añivo’e o siki’eo pak’ am-piambesara’ iareo, vaho niroahe’e mb’eo.
So Hanun took David's servants, and shaved off the one half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 Ie natalily amy Davide, le nampisangitrifa’e añe, fa nivata’e salatse indaty rey. Le hoe i mpanjakay tama’e: Mandiñisa e Ieriko añe ampara’ te mitombo o tanteahe’ areoo vaho mimpolia.
When they told it unto David, he sent to meet them; for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said: 'Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.'
6 Aa ie nioni’ o ana’i Amoneo t’ie nihamantiñe amy Davide, le nañirake o ana’ i Amoneo naho nikaramà’e o nte-Arame e Bete-Rehobeo, naho o nte-Arame e Tsobào, lahindefo ro’ ale, naho ty mpanjaka’ i Maakà reketse lahindefo arivo, vaho o nte-Tobe rai-ale-tsi-ro-arivo.
And when the children of Ammon saw that they were become odious to David, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Arameans of Beth-rehob, and the Arameans of Zobah, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah with a thousand men, and the men of Tob twelve thousand men.
7 Aa ie jinanji’ i Davide, le nirahe’e t’Ioabe, naho ty valobohò’ o fanalolahio.
And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
8 Niavotse o ana’ i Amoneo naho hinajari’ iareo am-pimoahañe an-dalambey ey i hotakotakey; le nitokañe an-kivoke ey ka o nte-Arame’ i Tsobào, naho o a i Rekobeo, naho ondati’ i Tobe vaho i Maakào.
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate; and the Arameans of Zobah, and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and Maacah, were by themselves in the field.
9 Ie nioni’ Ioabe te nilahatse aolo’e naho amboho’e i aliy, le jinobo’e iaby ze fanalolahi’ Israeleo, vaho riniri’e hiatreke amo nte-Arameo;
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 Arameans;
10 nafanto’e am-pità’ i Abisay rahalahi’e ty ila’ ondatio, vaho nalaha’e hiatreke o nte-Amoneo.
and 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 Le hoe re: Naho maozatse te amako o nte-Arameo le oloro, fe naho fatratse te ama’o o ana’ i Amoneo le homb’eo iraho hañimba azo.
And he said: 'If the Arameans be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me, but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will come and help thee.
12 Mahavania, ehe te ho ventèñe am’ ondatin-tikañeo naho amo rovan’ Añaharen-tikañeo te maozatse tika; vaho te hanoe’ Iehovà ze arofoana’e ho soa.
Be of good courage, and let us prove strong for our people, and for the cities of our God; and the LORD do that which seemeth Him good.'
13 Aa le nañarine hiatreatre amo nte-Arameo t’Ioabe naho o mpiama’eo vaho nitriban-day aolo’eo iereo.
So Joab and the people that were with him drew nigh unto the battle against the Arameans; and they fled before him.
14 Ie nitrea’ o ana’ i Amone te nibañe añe o nte-Arameo, le nitriban-day añatrefa’ i Abisay ka iereo nimoak’ an-drova ao. Aa le napo’ Ioabe o ana’ i Amoneo naho nimpoly mb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo.
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Arameans were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. Then Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
15 Ie trea’ o nte-Arameo te ginio’ Israele, le nifanontoñe.
And when the Arameans saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they gathered themselves together.
16 Le nañirake t’i Kadadetsere, naho nakare’e o nte-Arame alafe’ i sakaio; le nimb’e Kelame mb’eo rekets’ i Sobake, mifehe ty valobohò’ i Kadadetsere ho mpiaolo.
And Hadadezer sent, and brought out the Arameans that were beyond the River; and they came to Helam, with Shobach the captain of the host of Hadadezer at their head.
17 Nitaliliañ’ amy Davide, le natonto’e iaby t’ Israele, naho nitsake Iordaney naho nivotrake e Kelame eo. Nihajarie’ o nte-Arameo ty fanamea’ iareo i Davide vaho nialia’e.
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Arameans set themselves in array against David, and fought with him.
18 Nitriban-day aolo’ Israele o nte-Arameo; le zinama’ i Davide ty mpinday sarete fiton-jato, naho mpiningi-tsoavala efats’ ale amo nte-Arameo, naho vinono’e t’i Sobake mpiaolo’ ty valobohò’ iareo vaho nihomak’ eo.
And the Arameans fled before Israel; and David slew of the Arameans seven hundred drivers of chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and smote Shobach the captain of their host, so that he died there.
19 Aa ie nioni’ o mpanjaka mpitoro’ i Kadadetsereo te nahagioke t’Israele, le nifampilongo am’ Israele vaho nitoroñ’ aze. Aa le nihembañe tsy handrombake o ana’ i Amoneo ka o nte-Arameo.
And when all the kings that were servants to Hadadezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and served them. So the Arameans feared to help the children of Ammon any more.
