II Samuel 10

And it came to pass after this, that the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his stead.
Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia maty ny mpanjakan'ny taranak'i Amona, ka Hanona zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
Then said David, I will shew kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father shewed kindness unto me. And David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father. And David's servants came into the land of the children of Ammon.
Ary hoy Davida: Hanisy soa an'i Hanona, zanak'i Nahasy, aho, toy ny soa nataon-drainy tamiko. Ary Davida naniraka ny mpanompony hitsapa alahelo azy ny amin-drainy. Ary tonga tany amin'ny tanin'ny taranak'i Amona ny mpanompon'i Davida.
And the princes of the children of Ammon said unto Hanun their lord, Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? hath not David rather sent his servants unto thee, to search the city, and to spy it out, and to overthrow it?
Ary hoy ireo mpanapaka ny taranak'i Amona tamin'i Hanona tompony: Moa ataonao ho fanajana ny rainao no anirahan'i Davida hitsapa alahelo anao? Fa tsy hizaha ny tanàna sy hisafo azy ary handrava azy va no nanirahan'i Davida ireo mpanompony ireo hankatỳ aminao?
Wherefore Hanun took David's servants, and shaved off the one half of their beards, and cut off their garments in the middle, even to their buttocks, and sent them away.
Dia nosamborin'i Hanona ny mpanompon'i Davida, ka noharatany ny ila-somony, sady nofolonany hatreo amin'ny foto-peny ny akanjony, ka dia nalefany hody izy.
When they told it unto David, he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed: and the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
Ary dia nisy lasa nanambara izany tamin'i Davida, ary izy naniraka hitsena azy, fa afa-baraka loatra ireo lehilahy ireo; ka dia hoy ny tenin'ny mpanjaka: Mitoera any Jeriko aloha ambara-panirin'ny somotrareo, vao mody ianareo.
And when the children of Ammon saw that they stank before David, the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth–rehob, and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and of king Maacah a thousand men, and of Ish–tob twelve thousand men.
Ary nony hitan'ny taranak'i Amona fa efa mangidy hoditra eo anatrehan'i Davida izy, dia naniraka nanakarama ny Syriana any Beti-rehoba sy ny Syriana any Zoba izy, dia miaramila an-tongotra roa alina, ary tamin'ny mpanjakan'i Maka, olona arivo lahy, ary tamin'ny olona tany Toba, roa arivo sy iray alina.
And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
Ary nony ren'i Davida izany, dia naniraka an'i Joaba sy ny miaramila rehetra izy, dia ny lehilahy mahery.
And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the entering in of the gate: and the Syrians of Zoba, and of Rehob, and Ish–tob, and Maacah, were by themselves in the field.
Ary ny taranak'i Amona nivoaka ka nilahatra hiady teo anoloan'ny vavahady; ary ny Syriana avy any Zoba sy Rehoba sy ny olona avy tany Toba ary Maka nitokana teny an-tsaha kosa.
When Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind, he chose of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians:
Ary rehefa hitan'i Joaba fa teo anoloany sady teo ivohony ny fahavalo, dia nifidy olona tamin'ireo voafantina tamin'ny Isiraely rehetra izy, ka nalahany hiady tamin'ny Syriana.
And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abishai his brother, that he might put them in array against the children of Ammon.
Ary ny olona sisa kosa nomeny ho entin'i Abisay rahalahiny halahany hiady amin'ny taranak'i Amona.
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 come and help thee.
Ary hoy izy: Raha tsy tohako ny Syriana, dia vonjeo aho; fa raha tsy tohanao kosa ny taranak'i Amona, dia hovonjeko ianao.
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.
Mahereza ary, ka aoka hitombandahy isika ho an'ny firenentsika sy ny tanànan'Andriamanitsika; ary aoka Jehovah hanao izay sitrapony.
And Joab drew nigh, and the people that were with him, unto the battle against the Syrians: and they fled before him.
Ary Joaba sy ny olona nanaraka azy nandroso hiady amin'ny Syriana; ary dia nandositra niala teo anoloany ireo.
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, then fled they also before Abishai, and entered into the city. So Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem.
Ary nony hitan'ny taranak'i Amona fa nandositra ny Syriana, dia mba nandositra koa izy niala teo anoloan'i Abisay ka niditra tao an-tanàna. Ary Joaba niverina avy namely ny taranak'i Amona ka tonga tany Jerosalema.
And when the Syrians saw that they were smitten before Israel, they gathered themselves together.
Ary nony hitan'ny Syriana fa resy teo anoloan'ny Isiraely izy, dia nivory izy.
And Hadarezer sent, and brought out the Syrians that were beyond the river: and they came to Helam; and Shobach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them.
Ary Hadadezera naniraka naka ny Syriana izay tany an-dafin'ny Ony; ary dia tonga tany Helama izy; ary Sobaka, komandin'ny miaramilan'i Hadadezera, no nitarika azy.
And when it was told David, he gathered all Israel together, and passed over Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Syrians set themselves in array against David, and fought with him.
Ary nony nambara tamin'i Davida izany, dia nampamory ny Isiraely rehetra izy ka lasa nita an'i Jordana, dia tonga tany Helama. Ary nilahatra ny Syriana hiady amin'i Davida, ka dia rafitra ny ady.
And the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew the men of seven hundred chariots of the Syrians, and forty thousand horsemen, and smote Shobach the captain of their host, who died there.
Ary vaky nandositra teo anoloan'ny Isiraely ny Syriana, ka nahafaty ny tao an-kalesy fiton-jato sy ny an-tsoavaly efatra alina tamin'ny Syriana Davida sady namely an'i Sobaka koa, ilay komandin'ny miaramila, ka nahafaty azy teo.
And when all the kings that were servants to Hadarezer saw that they were smitten before Israel, they made peace with Israel, and served them. So the Syrians feared to help the children of Ammon any more.
Ary nony hitan'ny mpanjaka rehetra izay nanoa an'i Hadadezera fa resy teo anoloan'ny Isiraely izy, dia nanao fihavanana tamin'ny Isiraely izy ireo ka nanompo azy. Dia natahotra ny Syriana, ka tsy nety namonjy ny taranak'i Amona intsony.
