2 Samuel 10
1 Forsothe it was doon aftir these thingis, that Naas, kyng of the sones of Amon, diede; and Anoon, his sone, regnede for hym. And Dauid seide,
Poslije toga umrije Nahaš, kralj Amonaca, a zakralji se njegov sin Hanun mjesto njega.
2 Y schal do mercy with Anon, the sone of Naas, as his fadir dide mercy with me. Therfor Dauid sente coumfortynge hym by hise seruauntis on the deeth of the fadir. Sotheli whanne the seruauntis of Dauid hadden come in to the lond of the sones of Amon,
A David reče u sebi: “Želio bih iskazati ljubav Nahaševu sinu Hanunu, kao što je njegov otac iskazao meni.” Zato David posla svoje sluge da mu izraze sućut zbog njegova oca. Ali kad su Davidove sluge došle u zemlju Amonaca,
3 princes of the sones of Amon seiden to Anon, her lord, Gessist thou that for the onour of thi fadir Dauid sente coumfortouris to thee; and not herfor Dauid sente hise seruauntis to thee, that he schulde aspie, and enserche the citee, and distrie it?
rekoše knezovi Amonaca svome gospodaru Hanunu: “Zar misliš da je David poslao ljude da ti izraze sućut zato što bi htio iskazati čast tvome ocu? Nije li možda zato David poslao svoje ljude k tebi da razvide grad da bi doznao njegovu obranu i potom ga oborio?”
4 Therfor Anoon took the seruauntis of Dauid, and schauyde half the part of `the beerd of hem, and he kittide awey the myddil clothis of hem `til to the buttokis; and lefte hem.
Tada Hanun pograbi Davidove sluge, obrija im pola brade i skrati im haljine dopola, sve do zadnjice, i posla ih natrag.
5 And whanne this was teld to Dauid, he sente in to the comyng of hem, for the men weren schent ful vilensly. And Dauid comaundide to hem, Dwelle ye in Jerico, til youre beerd wexe, and thanne turne ye ayen.
Kad su to javili Davidu, posla on čovjeka pred njih, jer su ti ljudi bili teško osramoćeni, i poruči im: “Ostanite u Jerihonu dok vam ne naraste brada, pa se onda vratite!”
6 Sotheli the sones of Amon sien, that thei hadden do wrong to Dauid, and thei senten, and hiriden bi meede Roob of Sirye, and Soba of Sirie, twenti thousynde of foot men, and of kyng Maacha, a thousynde men, and of Istob twelue thousynde of men.
Tada Amonci uvidješe da su se omrazili s Davidom; zato Amonci poslaše glasnike da za plaću unajme Aramejce iz Bet Rehoba i Aramejce iz Sobe, dvadeset tisuća pješaka, zatim kralja Maake, tisuću ljudi, i ljude iz Toba, dvanaest tisuća vojnika.
7 And whanne Dauid hadde herd this, he sent Joab and al the oost of fiyteris.
Kad je David to čuo, posla Joaba s vojskom i izabranim junacima.
8 Therfor the sones of Amon yeden out, and dressiden scheltrun bifor hem in the entryng of the yate. Forsothe Soba, and Roob of Sirie, and Istob, and Maacha weren asidis half in the feeld.
Amonci iziđoše i svrstaše se u bojni red pred gradskim vratima, dok su Aramejci iz Sobe i iz Rehoba i ljudi iz Toba i iz Maake stajali zasebno na polju.
9 Therfor Joab siy, that batel was maad redi ayens hym, bothe euene ayens and bihynde the bak; and he chees to hym silf of alle the chosun men of Israel, and ordeynede scheltrun ayens Sirus.
Vidjevši postavljene bojne redove prema sebi sprijeda i straga, probra Joab najvrsnije među Izraelcima i svrsta ih prema Aramejcima.
10 Forsothe he bitook to Abisai, his brothir, the tother part of the puple, which dresside scheltrun ayens the sones of Amon.
Ostalu vojsku predade bratu Abišaju da je svrsta prema Amoncima.
11 And Joab seide, If men of Sirie han the maistrie ayens me, thou schalt be to me in to help; sotheli if the sones of Amon han the maistrie ayens thee, Y schal helpe thee;
I reče mu: “Ako Aramejci budu jači od mene, onda ti meni priskoči u pomoć; ako Amonci budu jači od tebe, ja ću tebi pohrliti u pomoć.
12 be thou a strong man, and fiyte we for oure puple, and for the citee of oure God; forsothe the Lord schal do that, that is good in his siyt.
Budi hrabar i junački se držimo radi naroda i radi gradova svoga Boga; a Jahve neka učini što je dobro u njegovim očima.”
13 Therfor Joab and his puple that was with hym, bigan batel ayens men of Sirie, whiche fledden anoon fro his face.
Tada se Joab i vojska koja je bila s njim počeše primicati da udare na Aramejce, ali oni pobjegoše pred njima.
14 Forsothe the sones of Amon sien, that men of Sirie hadden fled; and thei fledden also fro the face of Abisai, and entriden in to the citee; and Joab turnede ayen fro the sones of Amon, and cam in to Jerusalem.
Kad su Amonci vidjeli da su Aramejci pobjegli, umakoše i oni ispred Abišaja i povukoše se u grad. Tada Joab odustane od rata protiv Amonaca i vrati se u Jeruzalem.
15 Forsothe men of Sirye sien that thei hadden feld bifor Israel, and thei weren gaderid to gidere.
Kad su Aramejci vidjeli gdje su ih Izraelci razbili, sabraše ponovo svoje čete.
16 And Adadezer sente, and ledde out men of Sirie that weren biyende the flood, and he brouyte the oost of hem; sotheli Sobach, mayster of the chyualrie of Adadezer, was the prince of hem.
Hadadezer posla glasnike i sabra Aramejce što su s one strane rijeke. Ovi dođoše u Helam pod vodstvom Šobaka, vojvode Hadadezerove vojske.
17 And whanne this was teld to Dauid, he drow togidere al Israel, and passide Jordan, and cam in to Helama. And men of Sirie dressiden scheltrun ayens Dauid, and fouyten ayens hym.
Pošto su to javili Davidu, on skupi sve Izraelce i, prešavši preko Jordana, dođe u Helam. Aramejci se svrstaše protiv Davida i zametnuše s njime boj.
18 And Sireis fledden fro the face of Israel; and Dauid killide of Sireis seuene hundrid charis, and fourti thousynde of knyytis; and he smoot Sobach, the prince of chyualrie, which was deed anoon.
Ali Aramejci udariše u bijeg ispred Izraelaca i David im pobi sedam stotina konja od bojnih kola i četrdeset tisuća pješaka; pogubi i njihova vojvodu Šobaka te je ondje umro.
19 Forsothe alle kyngis, that weren in the help of Adadezer, siyen that thei weren ouercomun of Israel, and thei maden pees with Israel, and serueden hem; and Sireis dredden to yyue help to the sones of Amon.
A kad svi kraljevi, Hadadezerovi vazali, vidješe da ih je razbio Izrael, sklopiše mir s Izraelom i počeše mu služiti. A Aramejci se više nisu usuđivali pomagati Amoncima.
