2 Samuel 10 (YLT) Young's Literal Translation

1 And it cometh to pass afterwards, that the king of the Bene-Ammon dieth, and Hanun his son reigneth in his stead,
2 and David saith, `I do kindness with Hanun son of Nahash, as his father did with me kindness;` and David sendeth to comfort him by the hand of his servants concerning his father, and the servants of David come in to the land of the Bene-Ammon.
3 And the heads of the Bene-Ammon say unto Hanun their lord, `Is David honouring thy father in thine eyes because he hath sent to thee comforters? for to search the city, and to spy it, and to overthrow it, hath not David sent his servants unto thee?`
4 And Hanun taketh the servants of David, and shaveth off the half of their beard, and cutteth off their long robes in the midst -- unto their buttocks, and sendeth them away;
5 and they declare it to David, and he sendeth to meet them, for the men have been greatly ashamed, and the king saith, `Abide in Jericho till your beard doth spring up -- then ye have returned.`
6 And the Bene-Ammon see that they have been abhorred by David, and the Bene-Ammon send and hire Aram of Beth-Rehob, and Aram of Zoba, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Maacah with a thousand men, and Ish-Tob with twelve thousand men;
7 and David heareth, and sendeth Joab, and all the host -- the mighty men.
8 And the Bene-Ammon come out, and set battle in array, at the opening of the gate, and Aram of Zoba, and Rehob, and Ish-Tob, and Maacah, are by themselves in the field;
9 and Joab seeth that the front of the battle hath been unto him before and behind, and he chooseth of all the chosen in Israel, and setteth in array to meet Aram,
10 and the rest of the people he hath given into the hand of Abishai his brother, and setteth in array to meet the Bene-Ammon.
11 And he saith, `If Aram be stronger than I, then thou hast been to me for salvation, and if the Bene-Ammon be stronger than thou, then I have come to give salvation to thee;
12 be strong and strengthen thyself for our people, and for the cities of our God, and Jehovah doth that which is good in His eyes.`
13 And Joab draweth nigh, and the people who are with him, to battle against Aram, and they flee from his presence;
14 and the Bene-Ammon have seen that Aram hath fled, and they flee from the presence of Abishai, and go in to the city; and Joab turneth back from the Bene-Ammon, and cometh in to Jerusalem.
15 And Aram seeth that it is smitten before Israel, and they are gathered together;
16 and Hadadezer sendeth, and bringeth out Aram which is beyond the River, and they come in to Helam, and Shobach head of the host of Hadadezer is before them.
17 And it is declared to David, and he gathereth all Israel, and passeth over the Jordan, and cometh in to Helam, and Aram setteth itself in array to meet David, and they fight with him;
18 and Aram fleeth from the presence of Israel, and David slayeth of Aram seven hundred charioteers, and forty thousand horsemen, and Shobach head of its host he hath smitten, and he dieth there.
19 And all the kings -- servants of Hadadezer -- see that they have been smitten before Israel, and make peace with Israel, and serve them; and Aram is afraid to help any more the Bene-Ammon.
1 And it came to pass H1961 after H310 this, H3651 that the king H4428 of the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 died, H4191 and Hanun H2586 his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead. H8478
2 Then said H559 David, H1732 I will show H6213 kindness H2617 unto H5973 Hanun H2586 the son H1121 of Nahash, H5176 as H834 his father H1 showed H6213 kindness H2617 unto H5973 me . And David H1732 sent H7971 to comfort H5162 him by the hand H3027 of his servants H5650 for H413 his father. H1 And David's H1732 servants H5650 came H935 into the land H776 of the children H1121 of Ammon. H5983
3 And the princes H8269 of the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 said H559 unto H413 Hanun H2586 their lord, H113 Thinkest H5869 thou that David H1732 doth honor H3513 H853 thy father, H1 that H3588 he hath sent H7971 comforters H5162 unto thee? hath not H3808 David H1732 rather sent H7971 H853 his servants H5650 unto H413 thee, to H5668 search H2713 H853 the city, H5892 and to spy it out, H7270 and to overthrow H2015 it?
4 Wherefore Hanun H2586 took H3947 David's H1732 H853 servants, H5650 and shaved off H1548 the H853 one half H2677 of their beards, H2206 and cut off H3772 H853 their garments H4063 in the middle, H2677 even to H5704 their buttocks, H8357 and sent them away. H7971
5 When they told H5046 it unto David, H1732 he sent H7971 to meet H7125 them, because H3588 the men H376 were H1961 greatly H3966 ashamed: H3637 and the king H4428 said, H559 Tarry H3427 at Jericho H3405 until H5704 your beards H2206 be grown, H6779 and then return. H7725
6 And when the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 saw H7200 that H3588 they stank H887 before David, H1732 the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 sent H7971 and hired H7936 H853 the Syrians H758 of Beth- H1050 rehob , and the Syrians H758 of Zoba, H6678 twenty H6242 thousand H505 footmen, H7273 and of king H4428 Maacah H4601 a thousand H505 men, H376 and of Ish- H382 tob twelve H8147 H6240 thousand H505 men. H376
7 And when David H1732 heard H8085 of it , he sent H7971 H853 Joab, H3097 and all H3605 the host H6635 of the mighty men. H1368
8 And the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 came out, H3318 and put the battle H4421 in array H6186 at the entering H6607 in of the gate: H8179 and the Syrians H758 of Zoba, H6678 and of Rehob, H7340 and Ishtob, H382 and Maacah, H4601 were by themselves H905 in the field. H7704
9 When Joab H3097 saw H7200 that H3588 the front H6440 of the battle H4421 was H1961 against H413 him before H4480 H6440 and behind H4480 H268 , he chose H977 of all H4480 H3605 the choice H977 men of Israel, H3478 and put them in array H6186 against H7125 the Syrians: H758
10 And the rest H3499 of the people H5971 he delivered H5414 into the hand H3027 of Abishai H52 his brother, H251 that he might put them in array H6186 against H7125 the children H1121 of Ammon. H5983
11 And he said, H559 If H518 the Syrians H758 be too strong H2388 for H4480 me , then thou shalt H1961 help H3444 me : but if H518 the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 be too strong H2388 for H4480 thee , then I will come H1980 and help H3467 thee.
12 Be of good courage, H2388 and let us play the men H2388 for H1157 our people, H5971 and for H1157 the cities H5892 of our God: H430 and the LORD H3068 do H6213 that which seemeth H5869 him good. H2896
13 And Joab H3097 drew nigh, H5066 and the people H5971 that H834 were with H5973 him , unto the battle H4421 against the Syrians: H758 and they fled H5127 before H4480 H6440 him.
14 And when the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 saw H7200 that H3588 the Syrians H758 were fled, H5127 then fled H5127 they also before H4480 H6440 Abishai, H52 and entered H935 into the city. H5892 So Joab H3097 returned H7725 from H4480 H5921 the children H1121 of Ammon, H5983 and came H935 to Jerusalem. H3389
15 And when the Syrians H758 saw H7200 that H3588 they were smitten H5062 before H6440 Israel, H3478 they gathered themselves H622 together. H3162
16 And Hadarezer H1928 sent, H7971 and brought out H3318 H853 the Syrians H758 that H834 were beyond H4480 H5676 the river: H5104 and they came H935 to Helam; H2431 and Shobach H7731 the captain H8269 of the host H6635 of Hadarezer H1928 went before H6440 them.
17 And when it was told H5046 David, H1732 he gathered all Israel together H622 H853 H3605 H3478 , and passed over H5674 H853 Jordan, H3383 and came H935 to Helam. H2431 And the Syrians H758 set themselves in array H6186 against H7125 David, H1732 and fought H3898 with H5973 him.
18 And the Syrians H758 fled H5127 before H4480 H6440 Israel; H3478 and David H1732 slew H2026 the men of seven H7651 hundred H3967 chariots H7393 of the Syrians H4480 H758 , and forty H705 thousand H505 horsemen, H6571 and smote H5221 Shobach H7731 the captain H8269 of their host, H6635 who died H4191 there. H8033
19 And when all H3605 the kings H4428 that were servants H5650 to Hadarezer H1928 saw H7200 that H3588 they were smitten H5062 before H6440 Israel, H3478 they made peace H7999 with H854 Israel, H3478 and served H5647 them . So the Syrians H758 feared H3372 to help H3467 H853 the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 any more. H5750
