1 Chronicles 19
1 Some time later, Nahash, the king of the Ammon people-group, died. Then his son Hanun became their king.
Taas dabadeedna Naaxaash oo boqor u ahaa reer Cammoon ayaa dhintay, meeshiisiina waxaa boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii.
2 [When] David [heard about that, he] thought [to himself], “Nahash was kind to me, so I will be kind to his son.” So David sent some officials there, to tell Hanun that he was sorry to hear that Hanun’s father [had died]. But when David’s officials came to Hanun in the land where the Ammon people-group lived,
Markaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, Anigu waxaan u roonaan doonaa Xaanuun ina Naaxaash, maxaa yeelay, aabbihiis baa ii roonaaday. Sidaas daraaddeed Daa'uud wuxuu u diray wargeeyayaal inay u tacsiyeeyaan aabbihiis. Markaasaa Daa'uud addoommadiisii waxay dalkii reer Cammoon ugu yimaadeen Xaanuun inay isaga u tacsiyeeyaan.
3 the leaders of the Ammon people-group said to Hanun, “Do you think that it is really to honor your father that King David is sending these men to say that he is sorry that your father died? [We think that] his men have come to (look around/spy) our city in order to determine how his [army] can conquer us.”
Laakiinse amiirradii reer Cammoon waxay Xaanuun ku yidhaahdeen, Ma waxaad u malaynaysaa in Daa'uud aabbahaa cisaynayo oo uu sidaas daraaddeed kuugu soo diray kuwa tacsiyada wada? Addoommadiisu sow kuuguma iman inay dalka baadhaan oo basaasaan oo afgembiyaan?
4 Hanun [believed what they said, so he commanded some soldiers to] seize the officials whom David had sent, and shave off their beards, and [insult them by] cutting off the lower part of their robes, and then send them away. [So his soldiers did that].
Sidaas daraaddeed Xaanuun wuxuu qabsaday Daa'uud addoommadiisii, oo intuu iyagii u xiiray ayuu dharkoodiina dhexda ka kala gooyay xataa ilaa dabada, markaasuu iska eryay.
5 The officials were greatly humiliated/ashamed. When David found out about what had happened to his officials, he sent some messengers to them to tell them, “Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown again, and then return home.”
Markaasaa la tegey oo Daa'uud loo soo sheegay sidii nimankii loo galay. Oo isna 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.
6 Then the [leaders of the] Ammon people-group realized that they had greatly insulted [IDM] David. So Hanun and some of his officials sent about (37,000 pounds/34,000 kg.) of silver to hire chariots and chariot-drivers from [the] Aram-Naharaim, Aram-Maacah and Zobah [regions of Syria northeast of Israel].
Oo reer Cammoonna markay ogaadeen inay Daa'uud isnacsiiyeen ayaa Xaanuun iyo reer Cammoon sii dhiibeen kun talanti oo lacag ah inay gaadhifardood iyo rag fardooley ah kaga soo kiraystaan Mesobotamiya, iyo Aram Macakaah, iyo Soobaah.
7 They hired 32,000 chariots and chariot-drivers, as well as the king of [the] Maacah [region] and his army. They came and set up their tents near Medeba [town in Moab region]. The soldiers from the Ammon people-group also marched out and (stood in their positions/arranged themselves for battle) [at the entrance to their capital city, Rabbah].
Sidaasay u soo kiraysteen laba iyo soddon kun oo gaadhifaras, iyo boqorkii Macakaah iyo dadkiisii, kuwaasoo yimid oo Meedebaa horteeda degay. Oo reer Cammoonna waxay iska soo wada urursadeen magaalooyinkoodii, oo dagaal bay u soo baxeen.
8 When David heard about that, he sent Joab and all his army.
Oo Daa'uudna markuu taas maqlay ayuu diray Yoo'aab iyo ciidankii raggii xoogga lahaa oo dhan.
9 The soldiers of the Ammon people-group came out of their city and lined up for battle at the entrance to [their capital city, Rabbah]. Meanwhile, the other kings who had come [with their armies] stood in their positions in the open fields.
Oo reer Cammoonna way soo baxeen, oo waxay dagaal isugu soo diyaariyeen magaalada iriddeeda, oo boqorradii yimidna duurkay keli ahaantood joogeen.
10 Joab saw that there were groups of enemy soldiers in front of his troops and behind his troops. So he selected some of the best Israeli troops and put them in positions to fight against the soldiers of Syria.
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.
11 He appointed his [older] brother Abishai to be the commander of his other soldiers and he told them to (stand in their positions/arrange themselves) in front of [the army of] the Ammon people-group.
Oo dadkii intiisii kalena wuxuu u dhiibay walaalkiis Abiishay, oo iyana waxay isu soo diyaariyeen inay reer Cammoon la dagaallamaan.
12 Joab said to them, “If the soldiers from Syria are too strong for us to defeat them, then your soldiers must come and help us. But if the soldiers from the Ammon people-group are too strong for you to defeat them, then my soldiers will come and help your men.
Oo wuxuu walaalkiis ku yidhi, Haddii reer Suuriya iga xoog bataan waa inaad i soo caawisaa, laakiinse haddii reer Cammoon kaa xoog bataan, markaasaan ku soo caawin doonaa.
13 We must be strong/courageous, and fight hard to [defend] our people and our cities (that belong to/where we worship) our God. I will pray that Yahweh will do what he considers to be good.”
Haddaba si fiican u dhiirranow, oo aynu rag u ahaanno dadkeenna iyo magaalooyinka Ilaaheen aawadood, oo Rabbiguna ha sameeyo wixii la wanaagsan.
14 So Joab and his troops [advanced to] fight the army of Syria, and the soldiers from Syria ran away from them.
Sidaas daraaddeed Yoo'aab iyo dadkii la jirayba waxay ugu soo dhowaadeen inay la dagaallamaan reer Suuriya, oo iyana markaasay hortiisa ka carareen.
15 And when the soldiers of the Ammon people-group saw that the soldiers from Syria were running away, they also started to run away from Abishai and his army, and they retreated back inside the city. So Joab [and his army] returned to Jerusalem.
Oo reer Cammoonna markay arkeen in reer Suuriya carareen ayay iyana walaalkiis Abiishay hortiisa saasoo kale uga carareen, oo waxay galeen magaaladii. Markaasaa Yoo'aab Yeruusaalem yimid.
16 After [the leaders of the army of] Syria realized that they had been defeated by [the army of] Israel, they sent messengers to [another part of Syria on] the east side of the [Euphrates] river, and brought troops from there [to the battle area], with Shophach, the commander of Hadadezer’s army, leading them.
Oo reer Suuriya markay arkeen in iyaga looga adkaaday reer binu Israa'iil hortooda ayay wargeeyayaal u direen oo soo kaxeeyeen reer Suuriyihii Webiga ka shisheeyey, iyagoo uu madax u yahay Shoofag oo ahaa sirkaalkii ciidanka Hadarceser.
17 When David heard about that, he gathered all the Israeli soldiers, and they crossed the Jordan [River]. They advanced and took their battle positions to attack the army of Syria.
Taas waxaa loo soo sheegay Daa'uud, kolkaasuu reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan soo wada ururiyey, oo intuu Webi Urdun ka soo gudbay ayuu reer Suuriya u yimid, oo ciidankiisii ayuu weerar ugu soo diyaariyey, haddaba Daa'uud markuu raggiisii u diyaariyey inay reer Suuriya la dagaallamaan ayay iyana la dirireen.
18 But the army of Syria ran away from the soldiers of Israel. However, David’s soldiers killed 7,000 of their chariot-drivers and 40,000 other soldiers. They also killed Shophach, their army commander.
Oo reer Suuriyana way ka carareen reer binu Israa'iil hortooda. Daa'uudna wuxuu reer Suuriya ka laayay toddoba kun oo gaadhifaras raggoodii, iyo afartan kun oo nin oo lug ah, oo wuxuu dilay Shoofag oo ahaa sirkaalkii ciidanka.
19 When the kings who had been ruled by Hadadezer realized that they had been defeated by the Israeli army, they made peace with David, and agreed to allow him to rule them. So the rulers of Syria did not want to help the rulers of the Ammon people-group any more.
Oo markii Hadarceser addoommadiisii arkeen in reer binu Israa'iil hortooda looga adkaaday ayay la nabdeen Daa'uud, wayna u adeegeen, oo reer Suuriyana way diideen inay mar dambe reer Cammoon caawiyaan.
