1 Chronicles - Chapter: 19

>
19:1Now it came to pass after this, that Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his stead.
19:2And David said, I will shew kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father shewed kindness to me. And David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun, to comfort him.
19:3But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father, that he hath sent comforters unto thee? are not his servants come unto thee for to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out the land?
19:4Wherefore Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the midst hard by their buttocks, and sent them away.
19:5Then there went certain, and told David how the men were served. And he sent to meet them: for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown, and then return.
19:6And when the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire them chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, and out of Syriamaachah, and out of Zobah.
19:7So they hired thirty and two thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people; who came and pitched before Medeba. And the children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
19:8And when David heard of it, he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.
19:9And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field.
19:10Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose out of all the choice of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
19:11And the rest of the people he delivered unto the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
19:12And 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, then I will help thee.
19:13Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the LORD do that which is good in his sight.
19:14So Joab and the people that were with him drew nigh before the Syrians unto the battle; and they fled before him.
19:15And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
19:16And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them.
19:17And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.
19:18But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand men which fought in chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.
19:19And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.

 

19:1ויהי אחרי כן וימת נחשׁ מלך בני עמון וימלך בנו תחתיו׃
19:2ויאמר דויד אעשׂה חסד עם חנון בן נחשׁ כי עשׂה אביו עמי חסד וישׁלח דויד מלאכים לנחמו על אביו ויבאו עבדי דויד אל ארץ בני עמון אל חנון לנחמו׃
19:3ויאמרו שׂרי בני עמון לחנון המכבד דויד את אביך בעיניך כי שׁלח לך מנחמים הלא בעבור לחקר ולהפך ולרגל הארץ באו עבדיו אליך׃
19:4ויקח חנון את עבדי דויד ויגלחם ויכרת את מדויהם בחצי עד המפשׂעה וישׁלחם׃
19:5וילכו ויגידו לדויד על האנשׁים וישׁלח לקראתם כי היו האנשׁים נכלמים מאד ויאמר המלך שׁבו בירחו עד אשׁר יצמח זקנכם ושׁבתם׃
19:6ויראו בני עמון כי התבאשׁו עם דויד וישׁלח חנון ובני עמון אלף ככר כסף לשׂכר להם מן ארם נהרים ומן ארם מעכה ומצובה רכב ופרשׁים׃
19:7וישׂכרו להם שׁנים ושׁלשׁים אלף רכב ואת מלך מעכה ואת עמו ויבאו ויחנו לפני מידבא ובני עמון נאספו מעריהם ויבאו למלחמה׃
19:8וישׁמע דויד וישׁלח את יואב ואת כל צבא הגבורים׃
19:9ויצאו בני עמון ויערכו מלחמה פתח העיר והמלכים אשׁר באו לבדם בשׂדה׃
19:10וירא יואב כי היתה פני המלחמה אליו פנים ואחור ויבחר מכל בחור בישׂראל ויערך לקראת ארם׃
19:11ואת יתר העם נתן ביד אבשׁי אחיו ויערכו לקראת בני עמון׃
19:12ויאמר אם תחזק ממני ארם והיית לי לתשׁועה ואם בני עמון יחזקו ממך והושׁעתיך׃
19:13חזק ונתחזקה בעד עמנו ובעד ערי אלהינו ויהוה הטוב בעיניו יעשׂה׃
19:14ויגשׁ יואב והעם אשׁר עמו לפני ארם למלחמה וינוסו מפניו׃
19:15ובני עמון ראו כי נס ארם וינוסו גם הם מפני אבשׁי אחיו ויבאו העירה ויבא יואב ירושׁלם׃
19:16וירא ארם כי נגפו לפני ישׂראל וישׁלחו מלאכים ויוציאו את ארם אשׁר מעבר הנהר ושׁופך שׂר צבא הדדעזר לפניהם׃
19:17ויגד לדויד ויאסף את כל ישׂראל ויעבר הירדן ויבא אלהם ויערך אלהם ויערך דויד לקראת ארם מלחמה וילחמו עמו׃
19:18וינס ארם מלפני ישׂראל ויהרג דויד מארם שׁבעת אלפים רכב וארבעים אלף אישׁ רגלי ואת שׁופך שׂר הצבא המית׃
19:19ויראו עבדי הדדעזר כי נגפו לפני ישׂראל וישׁלימו עם דויד ויעבדהו ולא אבה ארם להושׁיע את בני עמון עוד׃

 

19:1And it cometh to pass after this, that Nahash king of the sons of Ammon dieth, and his son reigneth in his stead,
19:2and David saith, `I do kindness with Hanun son of Nahash, for his father did with me kindness;' and David sendeth messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And the servants of David come in unto the land of the sons of Ammon, unto Hanun, to comfort him,
19:3and the heads of the sons of Ammon say to Hanun, `Is David honouring thy father, in thine eyes, because he hath sent to thee comforters? in order to search, and to overthrow, and to spy out, the land, have not his servants come in unto thee?'
19:4And Hanun taketh the servants of David, and shaveth them, and cutteth their long robes in the midst, unto the buttocks, and sendeth them away.
19:5And `some' go, and declare to David concerning the men, and he sendeth to meet them -- for the men have been greatly ashamed -- and the king saith, `Dwell in Jericho till that your beard is grown, then ye have returned.'
19:6And the sons of Ammon see that they have made themselves abhorred by David, and Hanun and the sons of Ammon send a thousand talents of silver, to hire to them, from Aram-Naharaim, and from Aram-Maachah, and from Zobah, chariots and horsemen;
19:7and they hire to them two and thirty thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah and his people, and they come in and encamp before Medeba, and the sons of Ammon have been gathered out of their cities, and come in to the battle.
19:8And David heareth, and sendeth Joab, and all the host of the mighty men,
19:9and the sons of Ammon come out and set battle in array at the opening of the city, and the kings who have come `are' by themselves in the field.
19:10And Joab seeth that the front of the battle hath been unto him, before and behind, and he chooseth out of all the choice in Israel, and setteth in array to meet Aram,
19:11and the remnant of the people he hath given into the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set in array to meet the sons of Ammon.
19:12And he saith, `If Aram be stronger than I, then thou hast been to me for salvation; and if the sons of Ammon be stronger than thou, then I have saved thee;
19:13be strong, and we strengthen ourselves, for our people, and for the cities of our God, and Jehovah doth that which is good in His eyes.'
19:14And Joab draweth nigh, and the people who `are' with him, before Aram to battle, and they flee from his face;
19:15and the sons of Ammon have seen that Aram hath fled, and they flee -- they also -- from the face of Abishai his brother, and go in to the city. And Joab cometh in to Jerusalem.
19:16And Aram seeth that they have been smitten before Israel, and send messengers, and bring out Aram that `is' beyond the River, and Shophach head of the host of Hadarezer `is' before them.
19:17And it is declared to David, and he gathereth all Israel, and passeth over the Jordan, and cometh in unto them, and setteth in array against them; yea, David setteth in array the battle to meet Aram, and they fight with him;
19:18and Aram fleeth from the face of Israel, and David slayeth of Aram seven thousand charioteers, and forty thousand footmen, and Shophach head of the host he hath put to death.
19:19And the servants of Hadarezer see that they have been smitten before Israel, and they make peace with David and serve him, and Aram hath not been willing to help the sons of Ammon any more.
