1 Baada ya muda, Nahashi mfalme wa Waamoni akafa, mwanawe akaingia mahali pake.
Hagi mago'a kna evutegeno, Amoni vahe kini ne' Nahasi'a frigeno nemofo Hanuni agri nona erino kinia mani'ne.
2 Daudi akawaza, “Nitamtendea wema Hanuni mwana wa Nahashi, kwa sababu baba yake alinitendea wema.” Hivyo Daudi akatuma wajumbe ili kumfariji Hanuni kwa ajili ya kifo cha baba yake. Watu wa Daudi walipofika kwa Hanuni katika nchi ya Waamoni ili kumfariji,
Hagi Deviti'a amanage hu'ne, nagra Hanunina knare avu'avaza huntesnue, na'ankure nafa'amo Nahasi'a nagrira knare avu'ava kora hunante'ne. Anage nehuno Hanunina nefa'ma fri'nea zante Hanuni zamasunku ke ome huntehogu kato vahera Deviti'a huzmante'ne. Hagi ana'ma hige'za Deviti eri'za vahe'amo'za nefa'ma frigeno'ma mani'nea zante Hanuni kenaku Amoni vahe mopafi e'naze.
3 wakuu wa Waamoni wakamwambia Hanuni, “Hivi unadhani Daudi anamheshimu baba yako kwa kuwatuma wajumbe kukufariji? Je, hawa watu hawakuja kuipeleleza na kuidadisi nchi ili waishinde?”
Hianagi Amoni kumate kva vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za Hanunina asmi'naze, Kagrama antahinana ama'i vahe'tmima Deviti'ma huzmantege'zma azana, negafa'ma fri'nea zante zamasunku ke hugantenaku aze hunka kagesa antahino? I'o, ha' eme hurante'naku mopatia afure'za kenaku e'naze.
4 Kwa hiyo Hanuni akawakamata watu wa Daudi, akawanyoa ndevu akakata nguo zao katikati kwenye matako, akawaacha waende zao.
Hazageno Hanuni'a Deviti'ma huzmantege'zama e'naza vahetmina zamazerino zamagi zamazokara harenezmanteno, zamariga avamenteti kenazmia ahe vatro hutere huteno huzmantege'za ete vu'naze.
5 Mtu mmoja alipofika na kumpasha Daudi habari za watu hawa, akawatuma wajumbe wengine kuwalaki, kwa maana walikuwa wamevunjiwa heshima sana. Mfalme akasema, “Kaeni huko Yeriko mpaka ndevu zenu ziote, ndipo mje.”
Hagi ana nanekema Devitima eme asamizageno'a, eri'za vahe'arami huzmantege'za e'za amanage hu'za ana vahetmina eme zamasami'naze, kini ne'mo'a amanage hie, Jeriko kumate mani'nenkeno tamagitamazoka'mo'a hagetena eho huno hu'ne. Na'ankure zamagrira tusi'a zamagazema hu avu'ava'ma huzmantegeno zamagazema hiazanku anagea hu'ne.
6 Waamoni walipotambua kuwa wamekuwa machukizo kwa Daudi, Hanuni na Waamoni wakatuma talanta 1,000 za fedha ili kukodisha magari ya vita pamoja na waendeshaji wa hayo magari ya kukokotwa na farasi, kutoka Aramu-Naharaimu, Aramu-Maaka na Soba.
Hagi Amoni vahe'mo'zane, Hanuni'enema ke'za antahi'za hazama zamagrama haza avu'avamo'ma Devitima azeri arimpama nehegeno'a, karisifima mani'neza zamaza hu'za Devitima ha'ma hunte'naza vahetamine karisiraminema mizasenazana Messopotamia kumateti'ene, Aram-ma'aka kumateti'ene, Zoba kumatetira, kna'amo'a 30 tausen hu'nea silva zagoreti ome mizase'naze.
7 Wakakodisha magari ya vita 32,000 yakiwa na waendeshaji wake, pamoja na mfalme wa Maaka na vikosi vyake, wakaja na kupiga kambi karibu na Medeba. Waamoni nao wakakusanyika toka miji yao, wakatoka ili kupigana vita.
Hagi ana zago'a ome zami'za 32tauseni'a karisiraminki, Ma'aka kumate kini ne'ene maka sondia vahe'araminena zamavare'za e'za, Medeba kumate seli nona eme ki'za mani'naze. Hagi anama nehazage'za Amoni sondia vahe'mo'za zamagra rankumapinti Israeli vahe ha' huzmante'naku atiramiza e'naze.
8 Daudi aliposikia jambo hili, akamtuma Yoabu na jeshi lote la wapiganaji.
Hagi Deviti'ma ana'ma haza nanekema nentahino'a, Joapune maka hankave sondia vahetmina huzmantege'za ha' ome huzmantenaku vu'naze.
9 Waamoni wakatoka wakajipanga wakiwa tayari kwa vita langoni la mji wao, wakati wale wafalme wengine waliokuja nao walijipanga kwa vita uwanjani.
Hagi Amoni kumate sondia vahe'mo'za rankumapintira etirami'za rankumamofo kafante emanimpi hu'za ha hunaku otizageno, mago'a kini vahe'mo'zama zamazama hunaku'ma e'naza kini vahe'mo'zane, sondia vahe'mo'zanena hahunaku zamagranena hofa agupofi eme retro hu'za oti'naze.
10 Yoabu akaona kuwa mbele yake na nyuma yake kumepangwa vita; kwa hiyo akachagua baadhi ya vikosi vilivyo bora sana katika Israeli akavipanga dhidi ya Waaramu.
Hagi Joapu'ma keama ha' vahe'amozama amigane avuganema maninpi hu'za otizageno, knare'ma hu'za ha'ma nehaza hankave sondia vahetmina huzmantege'za Aramu sondia vahe'ene hara ome hunaku manimpi hu'za oti'naze.
11 Akawaweka wale wanajeshi wengine waliobaki chini ya amri ya Abishai ndugu yake, nao wakapangwa ili wakabiliane na Waamoni.
Hagi mago'ama maniza sondia vahetmina negna Abisai azampi antegeno, Abisai'a zamavareno Amoni vahe'mokizmi hara huzmantenaku manimpi hu'naze.
12 Yoabu akasema, “Kama Waaramu watanizidi nguvu, basi itakupasa wewe unisaidie; lakini kama Waamoni watakuzidi nguvu, basi mimi nitakusaidia.
Ana nehuno Joapu'a negna Abisaina amanage huno asmi'ne, Siria ha' vahe'mo'zama tusiza hu'za hankavema tiza ha'ma hunante'snageta eta eme naza hiho. Hagi Amoni vahe'mo'zama kagri'ma hankavetiza ha'ma hugantesnagena, nagra e'na eme kaza hugahue.
13 Uwe hodari na tupigane kwa ujasiri kwa ajili ya watu wetu na miji ya Mungu wetu. Bwana atafanya lile lililo jema machoni pake.”
Hagi korora osunka hankavetigeta, vahetiagu'ene Anumzanti'amofo rankumaku'ene ha' vaheti'aramina hara huzmantamnena, Ra Anumzamo'ma kesigenoma knare'ma haniazana amne agra hugahie.
14 Basi Yoabu na vikosi vyake wakasonga mbele kupigana na Waaramu, nao Waaramu wakakimbia mbele yake.
Hagi Joapu'ene sondia vahe'amozama Siria sondia vahetmima ha'ma ome huzmantage'za, ana Siria vahe'mo'za atre'za fre'naze.
15 Waamoni walipoona Waaramu wanakimbia, nao pia wakakimbia mbele ya nduguye Abishai na kuingia ndani ya mji. Basi Yoabu akarudi Yerusalemu.
Hagi Amoni sondia vahe'mo'zama kazama Siria sondia vahe'mo'zama koro'ma frage'za, zamagranena atre'za Abisainku koro hu'za fre'za rankumamofo agu'afi ufre'naze. Anama hazageno'a Joapu'a atreno Jerusalemi kumate vu'ne.
16 Baada ya Waaramu kuona kwamba wameshindwa na Israeli, wakapeleka wajumbe na kuwataka Waaramu wengine kutoka ngʼambo ya Mto Frati, wakiongozwa na Shofaki, jemadari wa jeshi la Hadadezeri.
Hagi Siria sondia vahe'mo'zama kazama, Israeli sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huzmagaterage'za, Yufretisi timofo kantu kazigama mani'naza sondia vahetmintega eme zamazama hanagura kato vahe huzmantazage'za kea eri'za vu'naze. Hagi e'i ana sondia vahetmimofo ugota kva vahezmia Sofakikino, agra Hadadezeri sondia vahetamintera ugota kva ne' mani'ne.
17 Daudi alipoambiwa haya, akawakusanya Israeli wote na kuvuka Yordani. Akasonga mbele dhidi yao na akajipanga kuwakabili. Daudi akapanga vita ili kupigana na Waaramu, nao wakapigana dhidi yake.
Hagi anankema Deviti'ma nentahino'a, mika Israeli sondia vahetmina zamazeri retru nehuno zamavareno Jodani tina takaheno kantu kaziga ha' ome huzmante'naku vu'naze. Hagi Deviti'ma kantu kazigama vigeno'a, Siria sondia vahe'mo'za hahunte'naze.
18 Lakini Waaramu wakakimbia mbele ya Israeli, naye Daudi akawaua waendesha magari 7,000 na askari wao wa miguu 40,000. Pia akamuua Shofaki, jemadari wa jeshi lao.
Hagi Siria sondia vahe'mo'za Israeli sondia vahetminkura koro frazageno, Deviti sondia vahe'mo'zama karisifima vano nehu'za ha'ma nehaza vahera 7tauseni'a vahe nezamahe'za, mopafima vano nehu'za ha'ma nehaza vahera 40tauseni'a nezmahe'za, ana sondia vahetmimofo kva ne' Sofakinena ana hapi ahe'naze.
19 Raiya wa Hadadezeri walipoona kuwa wameshindwa na Israeli, wakafanya mapatano ya amani na Daudi, wakawa watumishi wake. Hivyo Waaramu hawakukubali kuwasaidia Waamoni tena.
Hagi Hadadezeri eri'za vahe'mo'zama kazama Israeli sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma huzmagaterazage'za, Devitinte e'za zamarimpa fruma hu'za manisaza naneke eme nehu'za agri agorga'a mani'zageno, Siria vahe'mo'za ru'enena Amoni vahetega eme ante'za zamaza osu'naze.
