1此后， 亚扪 人的王 拿辖 死了，他儿子接续他作王。
1Now it came to pass that Naas the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned is his stead.
2大卫 说：「我要照 哈嫩 的父亲 拿辖 厚待我的恩典厚待 哈嫩 。」于是 大卫 差遣使者为他丧父安慰他。 大卫 的臣仆到了 亚扪 人的境内见 哈嫩 ，要安慰他，
2And David said: I will shew kindness to Hanon the son of Naas: for his father did a favour to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him upon the death of his father. But when they were come into the land of the children of Ammon, to comfort Hanon,
3但 亚扪 人的首领对 哈嫩 说：「 大卫 差人来安慰你，你想他是尊敬你父亲吗？他的臣仆来见你不是为详察窥探、倾覆这地吗？」
3The princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanon: Thou thinkest perhaps that David to do honour to thy father hath sent comforters to thee: and thou dost not take notice, that his servants are come to thee to consider, and search, and spy out thy land.
4哈嫩 便将 大卫 臣仆 的胡须 剃去 一半 ，又割断他们下半截的衣服，使他们露出下体，打发他们回去。
4Wherefore Hanon shaved the heads and beards of the servants of David, and cut away their garments from the buttocks to the feet, and sent them away.
5有人将臣仆所遇的事告诉 大卫 ，他就差人去迎接他们，因为他们甚觉羞耻；告诉他们说：「可以住在 耶利哥 ，等到胡须长起再回来。」
5And when they were gone, they sent word to David, who sent to meet them (for they had suffered a great affront) and ordered them to stay at Jericho till their beards grew and then to return.
6亚扪 人知道 大卫 憎恶他们， 哈嫩 和 亚扪 人就打发人拿一千他连得银子，从 美索不达米亚 、 亚兰 、 玛迦 、 琐巴 雇战车和马兵，
6And when the children of Ammon saw that they had done an injury to David, Hanon and the rest of the people sent a thousand talents of silver, to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syria Maacha, and out of Soba.
7于是雇了三万二千辆战车和 玛迦 王并他的军兵；他们来安营在 米底巴 前。 亚扪 人也从他们的城里出来，聚集交战。
7And they hired two and thirty thousand chariots, and the king of Maacha, with his people. And they came and camped over against Medaba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together out of their cities, and came to battle.
8大卫 听见了，就差派 约押 统带勇猛的全军出去。
8And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the army of valiant men:
9亚扪 人出来在城门前摆阵，所来的诸王另在郊野摆阵。
9And the children of Ammon came out and put their army in array before the gate of the city: and the kings, that were come to their aid, stood apart in the field.
10约押 看见敌人在他前后摆阵，就从 以色列 军中挑选精兵，使他们对着 亚兰 人摆阵；
10Wherefore Joab understanding that the battle was set against him before and behind, chose out the bravest men of all Israel, and marched against the Syrians,
11其余的兵交与他兄弟 亚比筛 ，对着 亚扪 人摆阵。
11And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abisai his brother, and they went against the children of Ammon.
12约押 对 亚比筛 说：「 亚兰 人若强过我，你就来帮助我； 亚扪 人若强过你，我就去帮助你。
12And 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, I will help thee.
13我们都当刚强，为本国的民和 神的城邑作大丈夫，愿耶和华凭他的意旨而行。」
13Be of good courage and let us behave ourselves manfully for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the Lord will do that which is good in his sight.
14于是 约押 和跟随他的人前进攻打 亚兰 人； 亚兰 人在 约押 面前逃跑。
14So Joab and the people that were with him, went against the Syrians to the battle: and he put them to flight.
15亚扪 人见 亚兰 人逃跑，他们也在 约押 的兄弟 亚比筛 面前逃跑进城。 约押 就回 耶路撒冷 去了。
15And the children of Ammon seeing that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled from Abisai his brother, and went into the city: and Joab also returned to Jerusalem.
16亚兰 人见自己被 以色列 人打败，就打发使者将大河那边的 亚兰 人调来， 哈大利谢 的将军 朔法 率领他们。
16But the Syrians seeing that they had fallen before Israel, sent messengers, and brought to them the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Sophach, general of the army of Adarezer, was their leader.
17有人告诉 大卫 ，他就聚集 以色列 众人过 约旦河 ，来到 亚兰 人那里，迎着他们摆阵。 大卫 既摆阵攻击 亚兰 人， 亚兰 人就与他打仗。
17And it was told David, and he gathered together all Israel, and passed the Jordan, and came upon them, and put his army in array against them, and they fought with him.
18亚兰 人在 以色列 人面前逃跑。 大卫 杀了 亚兰 七千辆战车 的人 ，四万步兵，又杀了 亚兰 的将军 朔法 。
18But the Syrian fled before Israel: and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and Sophach the general of the army.
19属 哈大利谢 的诸王 见自己被 以色列 人打败，就与 大卫 和好，归服他。于是 亚兰 人不敢再帮助 亚扪 人了。
19And when the servants of Adarezer saw themselves overcome by Israel, they went over to David, and served him: and Syria would not help the children of Ammon any more.
