Samuu'Eel Labaad 10
1 Taas dabadeedna boqorkii reer Cammoon ayaa dhintay, meeshiisiina waxaa boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii Xaanuun ahaa.
Some time later, the king of the Ammonites died and was succeeded by his son Hanun.
2 Markaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, Anigu Xaanuun ina Naaxaash, waxaan ugu roonaan doonaa sidii aabbihiis iigu roonaaday oo kale. Sidaas daraaddeed Daa'uud wuxuu u diray addoommadiisii inay ka soo tacsiyeeyaan aabbihiis. Oo addoommadii Daa'uudna waxay yimaadeen dalkii reer Cammoon.
And David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, just as his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent some of his servants to console Hanun concerning his father. But when they arrived in the land of the Ammonites,
3 Laakiinse amiirradii reer Cammoon waxay ku yidhaahdeen sayidkoodii Xaanuun, Ma waxaad u malaynaysaa in Daa'uud aabbahaa cisaynayo oo uu sidaas daraaddeed kuugu soo diray kuwa tacsiyada wada? Daa'uud sow uma soo dirin addoommadiisii inay magaalada baadhaan, oo ay soo basaasaan, oo ay dabadeedna afgembiyaan?
the princes of the Ammonites said to Hanun their lord, “Just because David has sent you comforters, do you really believe he is showing respect for your father? Has not David instead sent his servants to explore the city, spy it out, and overthrow it?”
4 Sidaas daraaddeed Xaanuun wuxuu qabsaday Daa'uud addoommadiisii, oo intuu gadhkoodii badh ka xiiray ayuu dharkoodiina dhexda ka kala gooyay xataa ilaa dabada, markaasuu iska eryay.
So Hanun took David’s servants, shaved off half of each man’s beard, cut off their garments at the hips, and sent them away.
5 Oo taas markii Daa'uud loo soo sheegay wuxuu iyagii u diray dad ka hor taga, waayo, nimankii aad bay u ceeboobeen. Boqorkiina wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, Yerixoo iska jooga ilaa gadhku idiin soo baxo, dabadeedna soo noqda.
When this was reported to David, he sent messengers to meet the men, since they had been thoroughly humiliated. The king told them, “Stay in Jericho until your beards have grown back, and then return.”
6 Oo reer Cammoonna markay ogaadeen inay Daa'uud isnacsiiyeen ayay u cid direen oo ka soo kiraysteen reer Suuriyihii Beytrexob degganaa, iyo reer Suuriyihii Soobaah degganaa labaatan kun oo nin oo lug ah, iyo boqorkii Macakaah oo isna wata kun nin, iyo raggii reer Toob oo iyana ahaa laba iyo toban kun oo nin.
When the Ammonites realized that they had become a stench to David, they hired twenty thousand Aramean foot soldiers from Beth-rehob and Zoba, as well as a thousand men from the king of Maacah and twelve thousand men from Tob.
7 Oo Daa'uudna markuu taas maqlay ayuu diray Yoo'aab, iyo ciidankii raggii xoogga lahaa oo dhan.
On hearing this, David sent Joab and the entire army of mighty men.
8 Oo reer Cammoonna way soo baxeen, oo waxay dagaal isugu soo diyaariyeen iridda horteeda; oo reer Suuriyihii Soobaah ka yimid, iyo kuwii Rexob ka yimid, iyo raggii reer Toob iyo reer Macakaahna, duurkay keli ahaantood joogeen.
The Ammonites marched out and arrayed themselves for battle at the entrance of the city gate, while the Arameans of Zobah and Rehob and the men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the open country.
9 Haddaba Yoo'aab markuu arkay in dagaal looga soo kacshay hore iyo dibba ayuu raggii reer binu Israa'iil ka xushay kuwii xuladka ahaa oo dhan, oo wuxuu u soo diyaariyey inay reer Suuriya la dagaallamaan.
When Joab saw the battle lines before him and behind him, he selected some of the best men of Israel and arrayed them against the Arameans.
10 Oo dadkii intiisii kalena wuxuu u dhiibay walaalkiis Abiishay, oo isna wuxuu u soo diyaariyey inay reer Cammoon la dagaallamaan.
And he placed the rest of the forces under the command of his brother Abishai, who arrayed them against the Ammonites.
11 Oo wuxuu yidhi, Haddii reer Suuriya iga xoog bataan, waa inaad i soo caawisaa, laakiinse haddii reer Cammoon kaa xoog bataan, markaasaan kuu iman doonaa oo waan ku soo caawin doonaa.
“If the Arameans are too strong for me,” said Joab, “then you will come to my rescue. And if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will come to your rescue.
12 Haddaba si fiican u dhiirranow, oo aynu rag u ahaanno dadkeenna, iyo magaalooyinka Ilaaheen aawadood; oo Rabbiguna ha sameeyo wixii la wanaagsan.
Be strong and let us fight bravely for our people and for the cities of our God. May the LORD do what is good in His sight.”
13 Sidaas daraaddeed Yoo'aab iyo dadkii la jirayba waxay ugu soo dhowaadeen inay la dagaallamaan reer Suuriya, oo iyana markaasay hortiisa ka carareen.
So Joab and his troops advanced to fight the Arameans, who fled before him.
14 Oo reer Cammoonna markay arkeen in reer Suuriya carareen, ayay Abiishay iyana hortiisa saasoo kale uga carareen, oo waxay galeen magaaladii. Markaasaa Yoo'aab ka soo noqday reer Cammoon, oo Yeruusaalem yimid.
When the Ammonites saw that the Arameans had fled, they too fled before Abishai, and they entered the city. So Joab returned from fighting against the Ammonites and came to Jerusalem.
15 Oo reer Suuriyana markay arkeen in iyaga looga adkaaday reer binu Israa'iil hortooda ayay dhammaantood isa soo wada urursadeen.
When the Arameans saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they regrouped.
16 Markaasaa Hadarceser u cid diray oo soo wada kexeeyey reer Suuriyihii Webiga ka shisheeyey; oo waxay yimaadeen Xeelaam, iyagoo uu madax u yahay Shoobag oo ahaa sirkaalkii ciidanka Hadarceser.
Hadadezer sent messengers to bring more Arameans from beyond the Euphrates, and they came to Helam with Shobach the commander of Hadadezer’s army leading them.
17 Taas waxaa loo soo sheegay Daa'uud, kolkaasuu reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan soo wada ururiyey, oo intuu ka soo gudbay Webi Urdun ayuu Xeelaam yimid. Markaasaa reer Suuriya isugu soo diyaariyeen inay Daa'uud la dagaallamaan, wayna la dirireen.
When this was reported to David, he gathered all Israel, crossed the Jordan, and went to Helam. Then the Arameans arrayed themselves against David and fought against him.
18 Oo reer Suuriyana way ka carareen reer binu Israa'iil. Daa'uudna wuxuu reer Suuriya ka laayay toddoba boqol oo gaadhifaras raggoodii iyo afartan kun oo fardooley ah, oo wuxuu dilay Shoobag oo ahaa sirkaalkii ciidankooda, halkaasuuna ku dhintay.
But the Arameans fled before Israel, and David killed seven hundred charioteers and forty thousand foot soldiers. He also struck down Shobach the commander of their army, who died there.
19 Oo markii boqorradii Hadarceser addoommada u ahaa oo dhammu ay arkeen in iyaga reer binu Israa'iil hortooda looga adkaaday ayay la nabdeen reer binu Israa'iil, wayna u adeegeen. Oo saas aawadeed reer Suuriya way ka cabsadeen inay mar dambe reer Cammoon caawiyaan.
When all the kings who were subject to Hadadezer saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel and became subject to them. So the Arameans were afraid to help the Ammonites anymore.
