1 Tarihi 19
1 Ana nan, sai Nahash sarkin Ammonawa ya mutu, sai ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
And it happened after this, that Nahash the king of the people of Ammon died, and his son Hanun reigned in his place.
2 Dawuda ya yi tunani, “Zan nuna jinƙai ga Hanun ɗan Nahash, domin mahaifinsa ya nuna alheri gare ni.” Saboda haka Dawuda ya aika da tawaga don yă yi wa Hanun ta’aziyya game da mahaifinsa. Sa’ad da mutanen Dawuda suka iso wurin Hanun a ƙasar Ammonawa don su ta’azantar da shi,
David said, "I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me." So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. David's servants came into the land of the people of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
3 sai manyan Ammonawa suka ce wa Hanun, “Kana tsammani Dawuda yana girmama mahaifinka ne da ya aika mutanen nan wurinka su ta’azantar da kai? Ba mutanensa sun zo ne su bincika su kuma leƙi ƙasar su tumɓuke ta ba?”
But the leaders of the people of Ammon said to Hanun, "Do you think that David honors your father, in that he has sent comforters to you? Haven't his servants come to you to search, to overthrow, and to spy out the land?"
4 Saboda haka Hanun ya kama mutanen Dawuda, ya yi musu aski, ya yayyanka rigunansu a daidai ɗuwawunsu, sa’an nan ya sallame su.
So Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 Da wani ya zo ya faɗa wa Dawuda game da mutanen, sai ya aiki’yan aika su sadu da su, gama an ƙasƙantar da su ainun. Sarki ya ce, “Ku zauna a Yeriko har sai gemunku sun yi girma, sa’an nan ku dawo.”
Then there went certain persons, and told David how the men were served. He sent to meet them; for the men were greatly ashamed. The king said, "Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return."
6 Sa’ad da Ammonawa suka gane cewa sun zama abin wurin a kafan hancin Dawuda, Hanun da Ammonawa suka aika da talenti dubu na azurfa don su yi haya da kekunan yaƙi da mahayan kekunan yaƙi daga Aram-Naharayim, Aram Ma’aka da Zoba.
When the people of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the people of Ammon sent one thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Aram Maacah, and out of Zobah.
7 Suka yi hayar kekunan yaƙi da mahayan kekunan yaƙi dubu talatin da biyu, da kuma sarkin Ma’aka tare da mayaƙansa, waɗanda suka zo suka kafa sansani kusa da Medeba, yayinda Ammonawa suka tattaru daga garuruwansu suka fita yaƙi.
So they hired for themselves thirty-two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah and his people, who came and camped before Medeba. The people of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
8 Da jin haka, Dawuda ya aiki Yowab tare da dukan mayaƙa masu yaƙi.
When David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of the mighty men.
9 Ammonawa suka fito suka ja dāgā a ƙofar birninsu, yayinda sarakunan da suka zo, su kansu suka ware suna a fili.
The people of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the gate of the city: and the kings who had come were by themselves in the field.
10 Yowab ya ga cewa akwai dāgā a gabansa da bayansa; sai ya zaɓi waɗansu mayaƙa mafi kyau a Isra’ila ya sa su a kan Arameyawa.
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.
11 Ya sa sauran mutanen a ƙarƙashin kulawar Abishai ɗan’uwansa, aka sa a kan Ammonawa.
The rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother; and they put themselves in array against the people of Ammon.
12 Yowab ya ce, “In Arameyawa suka fi ni ƙarfi, sai ka kawo mini ɗauke da ni; amma in Ammonawa sun fi ka ƙarfi, sai in kawo maka ɗauke.
He said, "If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you are to help me; but if the people of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will help you.
13 Ka yi ƙarfin hali bari mu yi yaƙi da jaruntaka saboda mutanenmu da biranen Allahnmu. Ubangiji zai yi abin da ya ga ya yi masa kyau.”
Be courageous, and let us be strong for our people, and for the cities of our God. May the LORD do that which seems good to him."
14 Sai Yowab da ƙungiyoyin mayaƙan da suke tare da shi suka matso don su yi yaƙi da Arameyawa, Arameyawan kuwa suka gudu a gabansa.
So Joab and the people who were with him drew near before the Arameans to the battle; and they fled before him.
15 Sa’ad da Ammonawa suka ga Arameyawa suna gudu, sai su ma suka guda a gaban ɗan’uwansa Abishai suka shiga cikin birni. Sai Yowab ya koma Urushalima.
When the people of Ammon saw that the Arameans had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
16 Bayan Arameyawa suka ga cewa Isra’ila sun ci su da yaƙi, sai suka aiki’yan aika suka sa aka kawo Arameyawan da suke hayen Kogi waɗanda Shobak shugaban mayaƙan Hadadezer yake shugabanta.
When the Arameans saw that they were defeated by Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Arameans who were beyond the River, with Shobach the captain of the army of Hadadezer at their head.
17 Sa’ad da aka faɗa wa Dawuda wannan, sai tattara dukan Isra’ila ya haye Urdun; ya tafi wurinsu ya kuwa ja dāgā ɗaura da su. Dawuda ya ja dāgārsa don yă sadu da Arameyawa a yaƙi, su kuwa suka yi yaƙi da shi.
It was told David; and he gathered all Israel together, and passed over the Jordan, and came on them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Arameans, they fought with him.
18 Amma Arameyawa suka gudu a gaban Isra’ila, mutanen Dawuda kuwa suka kashe masu hawan keken yaƙinsu dubu bakwai da sojojin ƙasa dubu arba’in. Ya kuma kashe Shobak shugaban mayaƙansu.
The Arameans fled before Israel; and David killed of the Arameans the men of seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shobach the captain of the army.
19 Da abokan tarayyar Hadadezer suka ga Isra’ila sun ci su da yaƙi, sai suka nemi salama da Dawuda suka kuma zama bayinsa. Saboda haka Arameyawa ba su ƙara yarda su taimaki Ammonawa ba.
When the servants of Hadadezer saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with David, and served him: neither would the Arameans help the people of Ammon any more.
