2 Samuel 10
1 Depois disso, o rei dos filhos de Amon morreu, e Hanun seu filho reinou em seu lugar.
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 David disse: “Eu mostrarei bondade a Hanun, o filho de Nahash, como seu pai demonstrou bondade para comigo”. Assim, David enviou seus servos para consolá-lo a respeito de seu pai. Os servos de Davi entraram na terra dos filhos de Amon.
And David said, I will shew kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.
3 Mas os príncipes das crianças de Ammon disseram a Hanun, seu senhor: “Você acha que David honra seu pai, por ter enviado consoladores para você? David não lhe enviou seus servos para revistar a cidade, para espioná-la e derrubá-la?”
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, Is it, in thine eyes, to honour thy father that David has sent comforters to thee? Is it not to search the city and to spy it out, and to overthrow it, that David has sent his servants to thee?
4 Então Hanun pegou os criados de David, raspou uma metade da barba e cortou suas roupas no meio, até as nádegas, e os mandou embora.
And Hanun took David's servants, and had the one half of their beards shaved off, and their raiment cut off in the midst, as far as their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 Quando disseram isso a David, ele os mandou ao encontro, pois os homens estavam muito envergonhados. O rei disse: “Espere em Jericó até que suas barbas tenham crescido, e depois volte”.
And they told [it] to David; and he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Abide at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
6 Quando os filhos de Amon viram que tinham se tornado odiosos para David, os filhos de Amon enviaram e contrataram os sírios de Beth Rehob e os sírios de Zobah, vinte mil homens de pé, e o rei de Maaca com mil homens, e os homens de Tob, doze mil homens.
And the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David; and the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth-Rehob, and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah [with] a thousand men, and the men of Tob twelve thousand men.
7 Quando David soube disso, enviou Joab e todo o exército dos homens poderosos.
And David heard [of it], and he sent Joab, and all the host, the mighty men.
8 Os filhos de Amon saíram e ordenaram a batalha na entrada do portão. Os sírios de Zobah e de Rehob e os homens de Tob e Maacah estavam sozinhos no campo.
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entrance of the gate; and the Syrians of Zoba and of Rehob, and the men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the field.
9 Agora, quando Joab viu que a batalha foi travada contra ele antes e depois, ele escolheu entre todos os homens escolhidos de Israel e os colocou em ordem contra os sírios.
And Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind; and he chose out of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians;
10 O resto do povo que ele comprometeu na mão de Abishai, seu irmão; e ele os pôs em ordem contra os filhos de Amon.
and the rest of the people he gave into the hand of Abishai his brother that he might array them against the children of Ammon.
11 Ele disse: “Se os sírios forem fortes demais para mim, então vocês me ajudarão; mas se os filhos de Amon forem fortes demais para vocês, então eu virei e os ajudarei.
And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me; and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will come and help thee.
12 Seja corajoso e sejamos fortes por nosso povo e pelas cidades de nosso Deus; e que Yahweh faça o que lhe parece bom”.
Be strong, and let us shew ourselves valiant for our people and for the cities of our God; and Jehovah do what is good in his sight.
13 Então Joab e as pessoas que estavam com ele se aproximaram da batalha contra os sírios, e fugiram antes dele.
And Joab drew near, and the people that were with him, unto the battle against the Syrians; and they fled before him.
14 Quando as crianças de Amon viram que os sírios haviam fugido, também fugiram antes de Abishai, e entraram na cidade. Então Joab voltou dos filhos de Amon e veio para Jerusalém.
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, they fled before Abishai, and entered into the city. And Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
15 Quando os sírios viram que foram derrotados por Israel, eles se reuniram.
And when the Syrians saw that they were routed before Israel, they gathered themselves together.
16 Hadadezer enviou e trouxe os sírios que estavam além do rio; e eles vieram para Helam, com Shobach o capitão do exército de Hadadezer à sua frente.
And Hadarezer sent, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river; and they came to Helam; and Shobach the captain of the host of Hadarezer [went] before them.
17 David foi informado disso; e ele reuniu todo Israel, passou pelo Jordão e veio a Helam. Os sírios se colocaram em ordem contra Davi e lutaram com ele.
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Syrians set themselves in array against David, and fought with him.
18 Os sírios fugiram diante de Israel; e David matou setecentos cocheiros dos sírios e quarenta mil cavaleiros, e atingiu Shobach, o capitão do exército deles, de modo que ele morreu lá.
And the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven hundred [in] chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and smote Shobach the captain of their host, who died there.
19 Quando todos os reis que eram servos de Hadadezer viram que tinham sido derrotados diante de Israel, fizeram as pazes com Israel e os serviram. Então os sírios tiveram medo de ajudar mais as crianças de Amon.
And all the kings that were servants to Hadarezer saw that they were routed before Israel, and they made peace with Israel, and served them. And the Syrians feared to help the children of Ammon any more.
