2 Saamuʼeel 10
1 Ergasiis mootiin Amoonotaa ni duʼe; ilmi isaa Haanuunis iddoo isaa buʼee mootii taʼe.
It happened after this, that the king of the people of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his place.
2 Daawitis, “Akkuma abbaan isaa naa arjoome sana 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 gara biyya Amoonotaa dhaqanitti,
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 qondaaltonni Amoonotaa Haanuun gooftaa isaaniitiin, “Ati sababii Daawit akka isaan dhaamsa gaddaa sitti himaniif namoota sitti ergeef inni waan abbaa keetiif ulfina kenne seetaa? Daawit akka isaan magaalattii qoratanii, basaasanii fi qabataniif gara kee isaan erge mitii?” jedhan.
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 Kanaafuu Haanuun namoota Daawit sana qaqqabee tokkoo tokkoo isaanii irraa hareeda gama tokkoo haadee wayyaa isaanii illee teessuma irratti cicciree of irraa isaan erge.
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 Daawit yommuu wanni kun isatti himametti sababii isaan akka malee qaanaʼaniif namoota sanatti ergamoota erge. Mootichis, “Isin hamma areedni keessan isinii guddatutti Yerikoo turaatii ergasii deebiʼaa kottaa” jedheen.
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 Amoononni yommuu akka Daawit isaan xireeffate hubatanitti, Beet Rehoobii fi Suubaadhaa loltoota lafoo kan Sooriyaa kuma digdama, mootii Maʼakaa namoota kuma tokko wajjin akkasumas Xoob irraa namoota kuma kudha lama qaxaratan.
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 Daawit yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti Yooʼaabii fi guutummaa loltootaa ni erge.
When David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of the mighty men.
8 Amoononni immoo baʼanii karra magaalaa sanaa irratti waraanaaf hiriiran; namoonni Sooriyaa warri Suubaa fi Rehoob, akkasumas namoonni Xoobiitii fi Maʼakaa immoo kophaa isaanii dirree irra turan.
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 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.
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 Namoota hafan immoo ajaja obboleessa isaa Abiishaayi jalatti hiriirsee Amoonotatti isaan duulchise.
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 Yooʼaabis akkana jedhe; “Yoo warri Sooriyaa natti jabaatan ati dhuftee na gargaarta; yoo Amoononni sitti jabaatan immoo ani dhufee sin gargaara.
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 Jabaadhu; saba keenyaa fi magaalaawwan Waaqa keenyaatiif garaa kutannaadhaan haa lollu. Waaqayyos waan fuula isaa duratti gaarii taʼe ni godha.”
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 Ergasii Yooʼaabii fi loltoonni isa wajjin turan warra Sooriyaa waraanuuf fuul duratti ni qajeelan; jarris fuula isaa duraa baqatan.
So Joab and the people who were with him drew near to the battle against the Arameans: and they fled before him.
14 Amoononni yommuu akka namoonni Sooriyaa baqatan arganitti isaanis Abiishaayi duraa baqatanii magaalaa seenan. Akkasiin Yooʼaab Amoonota waraanuu dhiisee Yerusaalemitti deebiʼe.
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 Namoonni Sooriyaa yommuu akka Israaʼeloonni isaan moʼatan arganitti lammata walitti qabaman.
When the Arameans saw that they were defeated by the children of Israel, they gathered themselves together.
16 Hadaadezeris ergamoota ergee namoota Sooriyaa kanneen Laga Efraaxiisiitiin gamaa fichisiise; isaanis hoogganummaa ajajaa waraana Hadaadezer kan Shoobak jedhamuun gara Heelaam deeman.
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 Daawitis yommuu wanni kun isatti himametti, Israaʼeloota hunda walitti qabatee Yordaanos ceʼee Heelaam dhaqe. Warri Sooriyaas waraanaaf Daawititti hiriiranii isa lolan.
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 Isaan garuu Israaʼeloota duraa baqatan; Daawitis namoota gaarii waraanaa oofan dhibba torbaa fi loltoota lafoo kuma afurtama fixe. Ajajaa loltoota isaanii Shoobak illee madeesse; innis achumatti duʼe.
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 Mootonni Hadaadezerin tajaajilaa turan hundi yommuu akka Israaʼelootaan moʼataman arganitti, Israaʼeloota wajjin nagaa uumanii isa jalatti bulan. Kanaafuu namoonni Sooriyaa ergasii Amoonota gargaaruu sodaatan.
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.
