2 Samuel 10
1 Det hende seg deretter at ammonitarkongen døydde. Og Hanun, son hans, vart konge etter honom.
And it was after thus and he died [the] king of [the] people of Ammon and he reigned Hanun son his in place his.
2 Då sagde David: «Eg vil syna Hanun Nahasson venskap, liksom far hans synte meg venskap.» David sende nokre av tenarane sine til å trøysta honom i sorgi yver faren. Tenarane åt David kom til Ammonitarlandet.
And he said David I will do covenant loyalty - with Hanun [the] son of Nahash just as he did father his with me covenant loyalty and he sent David to comfort him by [the] hand of servants his concerning father his and they came [the] servants of David [the] land of [the] people of Ammon.
3 Då sagde ammonitarfyrstarne til Hanun, herren sin: «Trur du det er til heider for far din at David hev sendt trøystarar til deg? Å nei, David hev sendt tenarane til deg berre for di han vil granska byen og njosna, og sidan gjera enden på honom.»
And they said [the] leaders of [the] people of Ammon to Hanun lord their ¿ honoring [is] David father your in view your for he has sent to you comforters ¿ not in order to explore the city and to spy on it and to overthrow it has he sent David servants his to you.
4 So tok Hanun tenarane hans David og let raka av deim halve skjegget og skjera klædi deira midt yver like upp til seten, og sende deim heim soleis.
And he took Hanun [the] servants of David and he shaved half of beard their and he cut off robes their at the middle to buttocks their and he sent away them.
5 Då David frette det, sende han folk til møtes med deim, og kongen let segja med deim: «Stana i Jeriko til dess skjegget hev vakse ut på dykk, so kann de koma heim att!» For mennerne hadde vorte øgjeleg svivyrde.
And people told to David and he sent to meet them for they were the men humiliated very and he said the king remain at Jericho until it will grow back beard your and you will return.
6 Då no ammonitarne skyna dei hadde gjort David hatig på seg, sende dei bod og leigde tjuge tusund mann fotfolk, syrarar frå Bet-Rehob og syrarar frå Soba, eit tusund mann hjå kong Ma’aka, og tolv tusund av mannskapet åt Tob.
And they saw [the] people of Ammon that they had made themselves odious with David and they sent [the] people of Ammon and they hired Aram Beth Rehob and Aram Zobah twenty thousand foot soldier[s] and [the] king of Maacah one thousand man and [the] man of Tob two [plus] ten thousand man.
7 Då David høyrde gjete det, sende han Joab med heile heren, det vil segja dei djervaste stridsmennerne.
And he heard David and he sent Joab and all the army the warriors.
8 Ammonitarne drog ut og fylkte seg framfor byporten, medan syrarane frå Soba og Rehob og Tob-folket og Ma’aka-folket stod for seg sjølve på opi mark.
And they went out [the] people of Ammon and they deployed battle [the] entrance of the gate and Aram Zobah and Rehob and [the] man of Tob and Maacah to alone them [were] in the open country.
9 Då Joab gådde han laut vera budd på åtak både framme og bak, gjorde han eit utval millom dei utvalde Israels-hermennerne, og fylkte deim mot syrarane.
And he saw Joab that it was against him [the] face of the battle from before and from behind and he chose some of all [the] chosen [men] (of Israel *Q(K)*) and he deployed [them] to meet Aram.
10 Resten av folket let han åt Abisai, bror sin, som so fylkte deim beint imot ammonitarne.
And [the] rest of the people he put in [the] hand of Abishai brother his and he deployed [them] to meet [the] people of Ammon.
11 Og han sagde: «Um syrarane vinn på meg, so kjem du meg til hjelp. Og um ammonitarne vinn på deg, so skal eg koma og hjelpa deg.
And he said if it will be [too] strong Aram for me and you will become of me deliverance and if [the] people of Ammon they will be [too] strong for you and I will come to deliver you.
12 Ver sterk! Lat oss syna oss sterke i striden for folket vårt og for byarne åt vår Gud! So fær Herren gjera det han tykkjer best.
Be strong so we may show ourselves strong for people our and for [the] cities of God our and Yahweh he will do the good in view his.
13 Joab drog fram med mannskapet sitt og stridde mot syrarane, og dei rømde for honom.
And he drew near Joab and the people which [was] with him for battle in Aram and they fled from before him.
14 Då ammonitarne såg at syrarane rømde, so rømde dei og for Abisai, og sprang inn i byen. Og Joab drog burt frå ammonitarne og kom heim att til Jerusalem.
And [the] people of Ammon they saw that it had fled Aram and they fled from before Abishai and they went the city and he returned Joab from on [the] people of Ammon and he came Jerusalem.

16 Hadadezer baud ut dei syrarane som budde på hi sida Storelvi. Og dei kom til Helam, med Sobak, herhovdingen åt Hadadezer, til førar.
And he sent Hadadezer and he brought out Aram which [was] from [the] other side of the River and they came Helam and Shobach [the] commander of [the] army of Hadadezer [was] before them.
17 Då David spurde dette, stemnde han saman heile Israel, gjekk yver Jordan og kom til Helam. Syrarane fylkte seg og gjorde åtak på David og slost med honom.
And it was told to David. And he gathered all Israel and he passed over the Jordan and he came Helam towards and they deployed Aram to meet David and they did battle with him.

19 Då alle lydkongarne under Hadadezer såg dei var slegne av Israel, gjorde dei fred med Israel og vart tenarane deira. So våga ikkje syrarane hjelpa ammonitarne meir.»
And they saw all the kings [the] servants of Hadadezer that they were defeated before Israel and they made peace with Israel and they served them and they were afraid Aram to deliver again [the] people of Ammon.
