2 Samuel 10
1 And it came to pass after this that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
Nokufamba kwenguva mambo wavaAmoni akafa, mwanakomana wake Hanuni akamutevera paumambo.
2 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.
Dhavhidhi akafunga kuti, “Ndichaitira Hanuni mwanakomana waNahashi tsitsi, sokundiitira tsitsi kwakaita baba vake.” Naizvozvo Dhavhidhi akatuma nhume kundobata Hanuni maoko pamusoro pababa vake. Vanhu vaDhavhidhi vakati vasvika kunyika yavaAmoni,
3 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?
machinda avaAmoni akati kuna Hanuni mambo wavo, “Munofunga here imi kuti Dhavhidhi ari kuremekedza baba venyu nokutumira kwaaita vanhu vake kuzochema nemi? Dhavhidhi haana kuvatuma here kuti vazoongorora guta nokurisora kuti vagoriparadza?”
4 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.
Naizvozvo Hanuni akabata vanhu vaDhavhidhi, akavaveura rumwe rutivi rwendebvu, akacheka zvipfeko zvavo napakati kumagaro, ndokuvadzinga.
5 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.
Zvino Dhavhidhi akati audzwa nezvazvo, akatuma nhume kundosangana navarume ava, nokuti vakanga vanyadziswa zvikuru. Mambo akati, “Chimbogarai henyu paJeriko kudzamara ndebvu dzenyu dzakura, mugozouya.”
6 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.
Zvino vaAmoni pavakaziva kuti vakanga vonhuhwa pamberi paDhavhidhi, vakatenga varwi vetsoka zviuru makumi maviri zvavaAramu kubva kuBheti Rehobhi neZobha, pamwe chete namambo weMaaka navarume chiuru chimwe, uye navarume zviuru gumi nezviviri vaibva kuTobhi.
7 And David heard [of it], and he sent Joab, and all the host, the mighty men.
Paakazvinzwa, Dhavhidhi akatumira Joabhu navarume vose veboka ravarwi.
8 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.
VaAmoni vakabuda pasuo reguta ravo ndokubva vazvironga kuti varwe, uye vaAramu veZobha neRehobhi navarume veTobhi neveMaaka vakanga vari voga mubani.
9 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;
Joabhu akaona kuti akanga akombwa navarwi mberi neshure; naizvozvo akasarudza dzimwe mhare dzavaIsraeri ndokuvaendesa kundorwisa vaAramu.
10 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.
Akaisa vamwe vose pasi paAbhishai mukoma wake ndokuvatuma kundorwisa vaAmoni.
11 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.
Joabhu akati, “Kana vaAramu vakandikurira iwe wozouya kuzondinunura; asi kana vaAmoni vakakukurira ipapo ini ndichauya kuzokununura.
12 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.
Iva nesimba tirwire vanhu vedu namaguta aMwari wedu takashinga. Jehovha achaita zvinomufadza.”
13 And Joab drew near, and the people that were with him, unto the battle against the Syrians; and they fled before him.
Zvino Joabhu navarwi vake vakaenda kundorwisa vaAramu, ivo vakatiza pamberi pake.
14 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.
VaAmoni pavakaona vaAramu vachitiza, vakatiza pamberi paAbhishai, ndokupinda muguta. Saka Joabhu akadzoka kundorwisa vaAmoni akasvika kuJerusarema.
15 And when the Syrians saw that they were routed before Israel, they gathered themselves together.
VaAramu vakati vaona kuti vakundwa navaIsraeri, vakaunganazve.
16 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.
Hadhadhezeri akakokera vaAramu kubva mhiri kwoRwizi; vakaenda kuHeramu vachitungamirirwa naShobhaki mutungamiri wehondo yaHadhadhezeri.
17 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.
Dhavhidhi akati azvinzwa, akaunganidza vaIsraeri vose, vakayambuka Jorodhani vakaenda kuHeramu. VaAramu vakazvigadzirira kuti vasangane naDhavhidhi uye vakarwa naye.
18 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.
Asi vakatiza pamberi pavaIsraeri, Dhavhidhi akauraya mazana manomwe avachairi vengoro dzamabhiza nezviuru makumi mana zvavarwi vetsoka. Akabaya Shobhaki mutungamiri wehondo yavo, akafira ipapo.
19 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.
Madzimambo ose akanga ari varanda vaHadhadhezeri akati aona kuti akundwa navaIsraeri, akayanana navaIsraeri uye akava pasi pavo. Saka vaAramu vakatya kubatsira vaAmoni zvakare.
