  19:1 ¶
And it came to pass after this, [that] Nahash{gr.Naas} the king of the children of Ammon died, and Hanan{gr.Anan} his son reigned in his stead. |
|
19:1 ¶
Now it came to pass°
after°
this,°°
that Nahash°
the king°
of the children°
of Ammon°
died,°°
and his son°
reigned°°
in his stead.° |
|
19:2
And David said, I will act kindly toward Hanan{gr.Anan} the son of Nahash{gr.Naas}, as his father acted kindly towards me. And David sent messengers to condole with him on the death of his father. So the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanan{gr.Anan}, to comfort him. |
|
19:2
And 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. |
|
19:3
And the chiefs of the children of Ammon said to Hanan{gr.Anan}, Is it to honour thy father before thee, that David has sent comforters to thee? Have not his servants come to thee that they might search the city, and to spy out the land? |
|
19:3
But 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?° |
|
19:4
And Hanan{gr.Anan} took the servants of David, and shaved them, and cut off the half of their garments as far as their tunic, and sent them away. |
|
19:4
Wherefore Hanun°
took°°°
David's°
servants,°
and shaved°°
them, and cut off°°°
their garments°
in the midst°
hard by°
their buttocks,°
and sent them away.°° |
|
19:5
And there came men to report to David concerning the men: and he sent to meet them, for they were greatly disgraced: and the king said, Dwell in Jericho until your beards have grown, and return. |
|
19:5
Then 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.°° |
|
19:6 ¶
And the children of Ammon saw that the people of David were ashamed, and Hanan{gr.Anan} and the children of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for themselves chariots and horsemen out of Syria of Padanaram{gr.Mesopotamia}, and out of Syria Maachah{gr.Maacha}, and from Shobal{gr.Sobal}. |
|
19:6 ¶
And 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.°° |
|
19:7
And they hired for themselves two and thirty thousand chariots, and the king of Maachah{gr.Maacha} and his people; and they came and encamped before Medaba: and the children of Ammon assembled out of their cities, and came to fight. |
|
19:7
So 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.° |
|
19:8
And David heard, and sent Joab and all the host of mighty men. |
|
19:8
And when David°
heard°°
[of it], he sent°°°
Joab,°
and all°
the host°
of the mighty men.° |
|
19:9
And the children of Ammon came forth, and set themselves in array for battle by the gate of the city: and the kings that were come forth encamped by themselves in the plain. |
|
19:9
And 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.° |
|
19:10
And Joab saw that they were fronting [him] to fight against him before and behind, and he chose [some] out of all the young men of Israel, and they set themselves in array against the Syrian. |
|
19:10
Now 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.° |
|
19:11
And the rest of the people he gave into the hand of his brother Abesai, and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon. |
|
19:11
And 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.° |
|
19:12
And he said, If the Syrian should prevail against me, then shalt thou deliver me: and if the children of Ammon should prevail against thee, then will I deliver thee. |
|
19:12
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 help°°
thee. |
|
19:13
Be of good courage, and let us be strong, for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the Lord shall do what [is] good in his eyes. |
|
19:13
Be of good courage,°°
and let us behave ourselves valiantly°°
for°
our people,°
and for°
the cities°
of our Elohim:°
and let Yahweh°
do°°
[that which is] good°
in his sight.° |
|
19:14
So Joab and the people that were with him set themselves in battle array against the Syrians, and they fled from them. |
|
19:14
So Joab°
and the people°
that°
[were] with°
him drew nigh°°
before°
the Syrians°
unto the battle;°
and they fled°°
before°°
him. |
|
19:15
And the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians fled, and they also fled from before Abesai, and from before Joab his brother, and they came to the city: and Joab came to Jerusalem. |
|
19:15
And 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.° |
|
19:16 ¶
And the Syrian saw that Israel had defeated him, and he sent messengers, and they brought out the Syrians from beyond the river; and Sophath the commander-in-chief of the forces of Hadadezer{gr.Adraazar} [was] before them. |
|
19:16 ¶
And 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. |
|
19:17
And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and crossed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set the battle in array against them. So David set [his army] in array to fight against the Syrians, and they fought against him. |
|
19:17
And 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. |
|
19:18
And the Syrians fled from before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand [riders in] chariots, and forty thousand infantry, and he slew Sophath the commander-in-chief of the forces. |
|
19:18
But 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.° |
|
19:19
And the servants of Hadadezer{gr.Adraazar} saw that they were defeated before Israel, and they made peace with David and served him: and the Syrians would not any more help the children of Ammon. |
|
19:19
And 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.° |
