1MAHOPE mai o ia mau mea, make iho la ke alii o ka poe mamo a Amona, a nohoalii iho la o Hanuna kana keiki ma kona wahi.
1Some time later, the king of the Ammonites died and was succeeded by his son Hanun.
2Olelo iho la o Davida, E lokomaikai aku au ia Hanuna ke keiki a Nahasa, e like me kona makuakane i lokomaikai mai ai ia'u. Hoouna aku la o Davida e hooluolu aku ia ia no kona makuakane ma ka lima o na kanaka ona. A hiki aku la na kanaka o Davida ma ka aina o na maino a Amona.
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,
3A o na alii o na mamo a Amona, i aku la lakou ia Hanuna i ko lakou haku, Ke manao nei anei oe e hoomaikai nei o Davida i kou makuakane i kona hoouna ana mai iou la i na mea hooluolu mai? Aole anei o Davida i hoouna mai i kona mau kanaka e makaikai i ke kulanakauhale, a e hoomakakiu mai, a e hookahuli ia wahi?
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?”
4Nolaila, lalau aku la o Hanuna i na kanaka o Davida, a kahi ae la i kekahi aoao o ko lakou umiumi, a okioki iho la i ko lakou kapa mawaena ma ko lakou kikala, a hookuu mai la ia lakou.
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.
5A hai aku la lakou ia mea ia Davida, alaila hoouna aku la ia e halawai me lakou, no ka mea, ua hilahila loa ua mau kanaka la: i aku la ke alii, E noho oukou i Ieriko, a ulu ae ko oukou umiumi, alaila e hoi mai.
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.”
6A ike iho la na mamo a Amona, ua pilau lakou imua o Davida, kii aku la na mamo a Amona, a hoolimalima aku la i ko Suria no Beterehoba, a me ko Suria no Zoba, he iwakalua tausani na koa kaniwawae, me ka tausani hookahi o na kanaka no Maaka ke alii, a me na kanaka no Isetoba he umikumamalua tausani.
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.
7A lohe ae la o Davida, hoouna aku la oia ia Ioaba, a me ka puali a pau o ka poe ikaika.
7On hearing this, David sent Joab and the entire army of mighty men.
8Hele mai la ka poe mamo a Amona iwaho, a hoonohonoho iho la i ke kaua ma kahi e komo ai iloko o ka puka; a ku kaawale mai la ka poe Suria no Zoba, a no Rehoba, no Isetoba, a no Maaka, ma ke kula.
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.
9A ike aku la o Ioaba i ke alo o na kana, mamua kekahi, a mahope kekahi, alaila wae iho la ia i ka poe ui a pau o ka Iseraela, a hoonohonoho aku la ia lakou e ku e i ka poe Suria.
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.
10A haawi aku la ia i ka poe i koe ma ka lima o Abisai kona kaikaina, i hoonohonoho aku ai oia ia lakou e ku e i ka poe mamo a Amona.
10And he placed the rest of the forces under the command of his brother Abishai, who arrayed them against the Ammonites.
11Olelo aku la ia, Ina paha e oi aku ka ikaika o ko Suria i ko'u, alaila e kokua mai oe ia'u, aka, ina paha e oi aku ka ikaika o ka poe mamo a Amona i kou, alaila au e hele aku ai e kokua ia oe.
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.
12I nui ka ikaika, a e koa hoi kakou no ko kakou lahuikanaka, a me na kulanakauhale o ko kakou Akua: e hana mai hoi o Iehova e like me ka mea e pono imua o kona mau maka.
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.”
13Neenee aku la o Ioaba me na kanaka me ia e kaua aku i ko Suria, a hee aku la lakou imua ona.
13So Joab and his troops advanced to fight the Arameans, who fled before him.
14A ike ae la ka poe mamo a Amona, ua hee aku la ko Suria, alaila hee aku la hoi lakou imua o Abisai, a komo aku la iloko o ke kulanakauhale. A hoi hou mai la o Ioaba mai ka poe mamo a Amona mai, a hele mai la i Ierusalema.
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.
15A ike ae la ko Suria ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hoakoakoa ae lakou i kahi hookahi.
15When the Arameans saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they regrouped.
16Kii aku la o Hadarezera, a kai mai la i ko Suria ma kela aoao o I ka muliwai; a hele mai la lakou i Helama: imua hoi o lakou o Sobaka ka lunakaua o Hadarezera.
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.
17A haiia mai ia ia Davida, hoakoakoa ae ia i ka Iseraela a pau, a hele aku la ma kela aoao o Ioredane, a hiki aku la i Helama: a hoonohonoho aku la ko Suria ia lakou iho e ku e ia Davida, a kaua aku la lakou ia ia.
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.
18Hee aku la ko Suria imua o ka Iseraela, pepehi iho la o Davida i ko na halekaa ehiku haneri o ko Suria, me na tausani koa hoohololio he kanaha; a pepehi aku la hoi oia ia Sobaka ka lunakaua o lakou, a make iho la ia ilaila.
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.
19A ike ae la ka poe alii a pau o na kauwa a Hadarezera, ua pepehiia lakou imua o ka Iseraela, hookuikahi mai la lakou me ka Iseraela, a hookauwa mai la na lakou. Pela i makau ai ko Suria i ke kokua hou aku i ka poe mamo a Amona.
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.
