< 2 Samoela 10 >

1 Ie añe, le nivilasy ty mpanjaka’ o ana’ i Amoneo, vaho nandimbe aze ho mpifehe t’i Khanone, anadahi’ey.
It happened after this, that the king of the people of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his place.
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.
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 people 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 leaders of the people of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, "Do you think that David honors your father, in that he has sent comforters to you? Hasn't David sent his servants to you 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 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 David was told, 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 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.
When the people of Ammon saw that they were become odious to David, the people of Ammon sent and hired the Arameans of Beth Rehob, and the Arameans of Zobah, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah with one 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.
When David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army 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.
The people 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.
The rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother; and he put them in array against the people 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.
He said, "If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you shall help me; but if the people of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will come and help you.
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 courageous, and let us be strong for our people, and for the cities of our God; and the LORD do that which seems good to him."
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 who were with him drew near to 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.
When the people of Ammon saw that the Arameans had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. Then Joab returned from the people of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
15 Ie trea’ o nte-Arameo te ginio’ Israele, le nifanontoñe.
When the Arameans saw that they were defeated by the children of 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.
Hadadezer sent, and brought out the Arameans who were beyond the River: and they came to Helam, with Shobach the captain of the army 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.
It was told David; and he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. 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.
but fled before Israel; and David killed of the Arameans seven hundred charioteers, and forty thousand foot soldiers, and struck Shobach the commander of their army, and 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.
When all the vassals of Hadadezer saw that they were defeated before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and served them. So the Arameans were afraid to give further aid to the Ammonites.
