1 Seenaa 19

1 Ergasiis Naahaash mootiin Amoonotaa ni duʼe; ilmi isaa iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.

And it was after thus and he died Nahash [the] king of [the] people of Ammon and he reigned son his in place of him.

2 Daawitis, “Sababii abbaan isaa naa arjoomeef anis Haanuun ilma Naahaashiif nan arjooma” jedhee yaade. Kanaafuu Daawit gadda waaʼee abbaa isaatiif itti dhagaʼame isaa ibsuuf Haanuunitti ergamoota ni erge. Yommuu namoonni Daawit dhaamsa gaddaa itti himuuf Haanuun bira biyya Amoonotaa dhaqanitti,

And he said David I will do loyalty - with Hanun [the] son of Nahash for he did father his with me loyalty and he sent David messengers to comfort him on father his and they came [the] servants of David into [the] land of [the] people of Ammon to Hanun to comfort him.

3 qondaaltonni Amoonotaa Haanuuniin, “Ati sababii Daawit akka isaan dhaamsa gaddaa sitti himaniif namoota sitti ergeef inni waan abbaa keetiif ulfina kenne seetaa? Ergamoonni isaa biyyattii qorachuu, basaasanii qabachuuf gara kee dhufan mitii?” jedhan.

And they said [the] officials of [the] people of Ammon to Hanun ¿ [is] honoring David father your in view your for he has sent to you comforters ¿ not in order to explore and to overthrow and to spy out the land have they come servants his to you.

4 Kanaafuu Haanuun namoota Daawit sana qaqqabee rifeensa irraa haadee wayyaa isaanii illee teessuma irratti cicciree of irraa isaan erge.

And he took Hanun [the] servants of David and he shaved them and he cut off robes their in the middle to the buttock[s] and he sent away them.

5 Daawit yommuu namni tokko dhufee waaʼee namoota sanaa isatti himetti, sababii isaan akka malee qaanaʼaniif ergamoota gara isaaniitti erge. Mootichis “Isin hamma areedni keessan isinii guddatutti Yerikoo turaatii ergasii deebiʼaa kottaa” jedheen.

And people went and they told to David on the men and he sent to meet them for they were the men humiliated exceedingly and he said the king remain at Jericho until that it will grow back beard your and you will return.

6 Amoononni yommuu akka Daawit isaan xireeffate hubatanitti Haanuunii fi Amoononni Phaadaan Arraamii, Araamaʼaakaa fi Zoobaadhaa gaariiwwan kireeffachuuf meetii taalaantii kuma tokko ni ergan.

And they saw [the] people of Ammon that they had made themselves odious with David and he sent Hanun and [the] people of Ammon one thousand talent[s] of silver to hire for themselves from Aram Naharaim and from Aram Maacah and from Zobah chariotry and horsemen.

7 Isaanis gaariiwwan kuma soddomii lamaa fi ooftota gaariiwwanii, akkasumas mootii Maʼakaatii fi loltoota isaa kanneen dhufanii Meedebaa bira qubatan sana kireeffatan; Amoononni immoo magaalaawwan isaaniitii walitti qabamanii waraanatti ni qajeelan.

And they hired for themselves two and thirty thousand chariot[s] and [the] king of Maacah and people his and they came and they encamped before Medeba and [the] people of Ammon they gathered from cities their and they came for battle.

8 Daawit yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti Yooʼaabii fi guutummaa loltootaa ni erge.

And he heard David and he sent Joab and all [the] army the warriors.

9 Amoononni immoo baʼanii karra magaalaa isaanii irratti waraanaaf hiriiran; mootonni dhufan sun immoo kophaa isaanii dirree irra turan.

And they went out [the] people of Ammon and they deployed battle [the] entrance of the city and the kings who they had come to alone them [were] in the open country.

10 Yooʼaabis akka fuula isaa duraa fi dugda isaa duubaan waraanni jiru ni arge; kanaafuu loltoota Israaʼel keessaa namoota bebeekamoo filatee adda loltoonni Sooriyaa jiranitti bobbaase.

And he saw Joab that it was [the] face of the battle against him face and back and he chose from every chosen [man] in Israel and he deployed to meet Aram.

11 Namoota hafan immoo ajaja obboleessa isaa Abiishaayi jalatti ni hiriirse; isaanis Amoonotatti duulan.

And [the] rest of the people he put in [the] hand of Abishai brother his and they deployed to meet [the] people of Ammon.

12 Yooʼaabis akkana jedhe; “Yoo warri Sooriyaa natti jabaatan ati na gargaarta; yoo Amoononni sitti jabaatan immoo ani sin gargaara.

And he said if it will be [too] strong for me Aram and you will become for me deliverance. And if [the] people of Ammon they will be [too] strong for you and I will deliver you.

13 Jabaadhaa saba keenyaa fi magaalaawwan Waaqa keenyaatiif garaa kutannaadhaan haa lollu. Waaqayyos waan fuula isaa duratti gaarii taʼe ni godha.”

Be strong so let us show ourselves strong for people our and for [the] cities of God our and Yahweh the good in view his he will do.

14 Ergasii Yooʼaabii fi loltoonni isa wajjin turan warra Sooriyaa waraanuuf fuul duratti ni qajeelan; jarris fuula isaa duraa baqatan.

And he drew near Joab and the people which [was] with him before Aram for battle and they fled from before him.

15 Amoononni yommuu akka namoonni Sooriyaa baqatan arganitti isaanis fuula obboleessa isaa Abiishaayi duraa baqatanii magaalaa seenan. Akkasiin Yooʼaab Yerusaalemitti deebiʼe.

And [the] people of Ammon they saw that it had fled Aram and they fled also they from before Abishai brother his and they went the city towards and he went Joab Jerusalem.

16 Namoonni Sooriyaa yommuu akka Israaʼeloonni isaan moʼatan arganitti ergamoota erganii namoota Sooriyaa kanneen Laga Efraaxiisiitiin gamaa fichisiisan; Shoofaki ajajaan loltoota Hadaadezer sun isaan hoogganaa ture.

And it saw Aram that they had been defeated before Israel and they sent messengers and they brought out Aram which [was] from [the] other side of the river and Shophach [the] commander of [the] army of Hadadezer [was] before them.

17 Daawitis yommuu wanni kun isatti himametti, Israaʼeloota hunda walitti qabee Yordaanos ceʼe; innis dursee dhaqee fuula isaanii duraan toora lolaa ni qabate. Daawitis warra Sooriyaa waraanuuf loltoota isaa hiriirse; namoonni Sooriyaas ni lolaniin.

And it was told to David and he gathered all Israel and he passed over the Jordan and he came to them and he deployed against them and he deployed David to meet Aram battle and they fought with him.

18 Isaan garuu Israaʼeloota duraa baqatan; Daawitis namoota gaarii waraanaa oofan kuma torbaa fi loltoota lafoo kuma afurtama fixe. Ajajaa loltoota isaanii Shoofaki illee ni ajjeese.

And it fled Aram from to before Israel and he killed David of Aram seven thousand charioteer[s] and forty thousand man on foot and Shophach [the] commander of the army he killed.

19 Tajaajiltoonni Hadaadezeriis yommuu akka Israaʼelootaan moʼataman arganitti Daawit wajjin nagaa uumanii isa jalatti bulan. Kanaafuu namoonni Sooriyaa ergasii Amoonota gargaaruu hin feene.

And they saw [the] servants of Hadadezer that they had been defeated before Israel and they made peace with David and they served him and not it was willing Aram to deliver [the] people of Ammon again.
