< 1 Chronicles 19 >

1 And it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
و بعد از اين واقع شد که ناحاش، پادشاه بني عَمُّون مرد و پسرش در جاي او سلطنت نمود.۱
2 And David said, I will shew kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father shewed kindness to me. So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And David’s servants came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
و داود گفت: « با حانُون بن ناحاش احسان نمايم چنانکه پدرش به من احسان کرد.» پس داود قاصدان فرستاد تا او را درباره پدرش تعزيت گويند. و خادمان داود به زمين بني عَمُّون نزد حانُون براي تعزيت وي آمدند.۲
3 But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee for to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
و سروران بني عَمُّون به حانُون گفتند: « آيا گمان مي بري که به جهت تکريم پدر تو است که داود تعزيت کنندگان نزد تو فرستاده است؟ ني بلکه بندگانش به جهت تفحص و انقلاب و جاسوسي زمين نزد تو آمدند.»۳
4 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.
پس حانُون خادمان داود را گرفته، ريش ايشان را تراشيد و لباسهاي ايشان را از ميان تا جاي نشستن دريده، ايشان را رها کرد.۴
5 Then there went certain, and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them; for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
و چون بعضي آمده، داود را از حالت آن کسان خبر دادند، به استقبال ايشان فرستاد زيرا که ايشان بسيار خجل بودند، و پادشاه گفت: « در اَريحا بمانيد تا ريشهاي شما درآيد و بعد از آن برگرديد.»۵
6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Aram-maacah, and out of Zobah.
و چون بني عَمُّون ديدند که نزد داود مکروه شده اند، حانُون و بني عَمُّون هزار وزنه نقره فرستادند تا ارابه ها و سواران از اَرام نَهرَين و اَرام مَعکَه و صُوبَه براي خود اجير سازند.۶
7 So they hired them thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah and his people; who came and pitched before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cites, and came to battle.
پس سي و دو هزار ارابه و پادشاه مَعکَه و جمعيت او را براي خود اجير کردند، و ايشان بيرون آمده، در مقابل مِيدَبا اُردو زدند، و بني عَمُّون از شهر هاي خود جمع شده، براي مقاتله آمدند.۷
8 And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
و چون داود اين را شنيد، يوآب و تمامي لشکر شجاعان را فرستاد.۸
9 And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the gate of the city: and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.
و بني عَمُّون بيرون آمده، نزد دروازه شهر براي جنگ صف آرايي نمودند. و پادشاهاني که آمده بودند، در صحرا عليحده بودند.۹
10 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 Syrians.
و چون يوآب ديد که روي صفوف جنگ، هم از پيش و هم از عقبش بود، از تمامي برگزيدگان اسرائيل گروهي را انتخاب کرده، در مقابل اَرميان صف آرايي نمود.۱۰
11 And the rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother, and they put themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
و بقيه قوم را به دست برادر خود اَبِشاي سپرده و به مقابل بني عَمُّون صف کشيدند.۱۱
12 And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.
و گفت: « اگر اَرميان بر من غالب آيند، به مدد من بيا؛ و اگر بني عَمُّون بر تو غالب آيند، به جهت امداد تو خواهم آمد.۱۲
13 Be of good courage, and let us play the men for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the LORD do that which seemeth him good.
دلير باش که به جهت قوم خويش و به جهت شهر هاي خداي خود مردانه بکوشيم و خداوند آنچه را در نظرش پسند آيد بکند.»۱۳
14 So Joab and the people that were with him drew nigh before the Syrians unto the battle; and they fled before him.
پس يوآب و گروهي که همراهش بودند، نزديک شدند تا با اَرميان جنگ کنند و ايشان از حضور وي فرار کردند.۱۴
15 And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
و چون بني عَمُّون ديدند که اَراميان فرار کردند، ايشان نيز از حضور برادرش اَبِشاي گريخته، داخل شهر شدند؛ و يوآب به اورشليم برگشت.۱۵
16 And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the River, with Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer at their head.
و چون اَراميان ديدند که از حضور اسرائيل شکست يافتند، ايشان قاصدان فرستاده، اَراميان را که به آن طرف نهر بودند، و شُوفَک سردار لشکر هَدَرعَزَر پيشواي ايشان بود.۱۶
17 And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel together, and passed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him:
و چون خبر به داود رسيد، تمامي اسرائيل را جمع کرده، از اُردُن عبور نمود وبه ايشان رسيده، مقابل ايشان صف آرايي نمود. و چون داود جنگ را با اَراميان آراسته بود، ايشان با وي جنگ کردند.۱۷
18 And the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians [the men of] seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.
و اَراميان از حضور اسرائيل فرار کردند و داود مردان هفت هزار ارابه و چهل هزار پياده از اَراميان را کشت، و شُوفَک سردار لشکر را به قتل رسانيد.۱۸
19 And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and served him: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.
و چون بندگان هَدَرعَزَر ديدند که از حضور اسرائيل شکست خوردند، با داود صلح نموده، بنده او شدند، و اَراميان بعد از آن در اعانت بني عَمُّون اقدام ننمودند.۱۹
