1Some time later, the king of the Ammonites died and was succeeded by his son Hanun.
1此後， 亞捫 人的王死了，他兒子 哈嫩 接續他作王。
2And David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, just as his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent some of his servants to console Hanun concerning his father. But when they arrived in the land of the Ammonites,
2大衛 說：「我要照 哈嫩 的父親 拿轄 厚待我的恩典厚待 哈嫩 。」於是 大衛 差遣臣僕，為他喪父安慰他。 大衛 的臣僕到了 亞捫 人的境內。
3the princes of the Ammonites said to Hanun their lord, “Just because David has sent you comforters, do you really believe he is showing respect for your father? Has not David instead sent his servants to explore the city, spy it out, and overthrow it?”
3但 亞捫 人的首領對他們的主 哈嫩 說：「 大衛 差人來安慰你，你想他是尊敬你父親嗎？他差臣僕來不是詳察窺探、要傾覆這城嗎？」
4So Hanun took David’s servants, shaved off half of each man’s beard, cut off their garments at the hips, and sent them away.
4哈嫩 便將 大衛 臣僕的鬍鬚剃去一半，又割斷他們下半截的衣服，使他們露出下體，打發他們回去。
5When this was reported to David, he sent messengers to meet the men, since they had been thoroughly humiliated. The king told them, “Stay in Jericho until your beards have grown back, and then return.”
5有人告訴 大衛 ，他就差人去迎接他們，（因為他們甚覺羞恥），告訴他們說：「可以住在 耶利哥 ，等到鬍鬚長起再回來。」
6When the Ammonites realized that they had become a stench to David, they hired twenty thousand Aramean foot soldiers from Beth-rehob and Zoba, as well as a thousand men from the king of Maacah and twelve thousand men from Tob.
6亞捫 人知道 大衛 憎惡他們，就打發人去，招募 伯‧利合 的 亞蘭 人和 瑣巴 的 亞蘭 人，步兵二萬，與 瑪迦 王的人一千、 陀伯 人一萬二千。
7On hearing this, David sent Joab and the entire army of mighty men.
7大衛 聽見了，就差派 約押 統帶勇猛的全軍出去。
8The Ammonites marched out and arrayed themselves for battle at the entrance of the city gate, while the Arameans of Zobah and Rehob and the men of Tob and Maacah were by themselves in the open country.
8亞捫 人出來，在城門前擺陣； 瑣巴 與 利合 的 亞蘭 人、 陀伯 人，並 瑪迦 人，另在郊野擺陣。
9When Joab saw the battle lines before him and behind him, he selected some of the best men of Israel and arrayed them against the Arameans.
9約押 看見敵人在他前後擺陣，就從 以色列 軍中挑選精兵，使他們對着 亞蘭 人擺陣。
10And he placed the rest of the forces under the command of his brother Abishai, who arrayed them against the Ammonites.
10其餘的兵交與他兄弟 亞比篩 ，對着 亞捫 人擺陣。
11“If the Arameans are too strong for me,” said Joab, “then you will come to my rescue. And if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will come to your rescue.
11約押 對 亞比篩 說：「 亞蘭 人若強過我，你就來幫助我； 亞捫 人若強過你，我就去幫助你。
12Be strong and let us fight bravely for our people and for the cities of our God. May the LORD do what is good in His sight.”
12我們都當剛強，為本國的民和上帝的城邑作大丈夫。願耶和華憑他的意旨而行！」
13So Joab and his troops advanced to fight the Arameans, who fled before him.
13於是， 約押 和跟隨他的人前進攻打 亞蘭 人； 亞蘭 人在 約押 面前逃跑。
14When the Ammonites saw that the Arameans had fled, they too fled before Abishai, and they entered the city. So Joab returned from fighting against the Ammonites and came to Jerusalem.
14亞捫 人見 亞蘭 人逃跑，他們也在 亞比篩 面前逃跑進城。 約押 就離開 亞捫 人那裏，回 耶路撒冷 去了。
15When the Arameans saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they regrouped.
15亞蘭 人見自己被 以色列 人打敗，就又聚集。
16Hadadezer sent messengers to bring more Arameans from beyond the Euphrates, and they came to Helam with Shobach the commander of Hadadezer’s army leading them.
16哈大底謝 差遣人，將大河那邊的 亞蘭 人調來；他們到了 希蘭 ， 哈大底謝 的將軍 朔法 率領他們。
17When this was reported to David, he gathered all Israel, crossed the Jordan, and went to Helam. Then the Arameans arrayed themselves against David and fought against him.
17有人告訴 大衛 ，他就聚集 以色列 眾人，過 約旦河 ，來到 希蘭 。 亞蘭 人迎着 大衛 擺陣，與他打仗。
18But the Arameans fled before Israel, and David killed seven hundred charioteers and forty thousand foot soldiers. He also struck down Shobach the commander of their army, who died there.
18亞蘭 人在 以色列 人面前逃跑； 大衛 殺了 亞蘭 七百輛戰車 的人 ，四萬馬兵，又殺了 亞蘭 的將軍 朔法 。
19When all the kings who were subject to Hadadezer saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel and became subject to them. So the Arameans were afraid to help the Ammonites anymore.
19屬 哈大底謝 的諸王見自己被 以色列 人打敗，就與 以色列 人和好，歸服他們。於是 亞蘭 人不敢再幫助 亞捫 人了。
