And it came to pass°
after°
this,°°
that the king°
of the children°
of Ammon°
died,°°
and Hanun°
his son°
reigned°°
in his stead.° |
10:2
And David said, I will shew mercy to Annon the son of Nahash{gr.Naas}, as his father dealt mercifully with me. And David sent to comfort him concerning his father by the hand of his servants; and the servants of David came into the land of the children of Ammon. |
|
10:2
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.° |
10:3
And the princes of the children of Ammon said to Annon their lord, [Is it] to honour thy father before thee that David has sent comforters to thee? Has not David rather sent his servants to thee that they should search the city, and spy it out and examine it? |
|
10:3
And the princes°
of the children°
of Ammon°
said°°
unto°
Hanun°
their adon,°
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? |
10:4
And Annon took the servants of David, and shaved their beards, and cut off their garments in the midst as far as their haunches, and sent them away. |
|
10:4
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.°° |
10:5
And they brought David word concerning the men; and he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly dishonoured: and the king said, Remain in Jericho till your beards have grown, and [then] ye shall return. |
|
10:5
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.°° |
10:6 ¶
And the children of Ammon saw that the people of David were ashamed; and the children of Ammon sent, and hired the Syrians of Baethraam, and the Syrians of Zobah{gr.Suba}, and Roob, twenty thousand footmen, and the king of Amalek{gr.Amalec} with a thousand men, and Istob with twelve thousand men. |
|
10:6 ¶
And when the children°
of Ammon°
saw°°
that°
they stank°°
before David,°
the children°
of Ammon°
sent°°
and hired°°°
the Syrians°
of Bethrehob,°
and the Syrians°
of Zoba,°
twenty°
thousand°
footmen,°
and of king°
Maacah°
a thousand°
men,°
and of Ishtob°
twelve°°
thousand°
men.° |
10:7
And David heard, and sent Joab and all his host, [even] the mighty men. |
|
10:7

heard°°
of [it], he sent°°°
Joab,°
and all°
the host°
of the mighty men.° |
10:8
And the children of Ammon went forth, and set the battle in array by the door of the gate: [those] of Syria, Zobah{gr.Suba}, and Roob, and Istob, and Amalek{gr.Amalec}, being by themselves in the field. |
|
10:8
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 Ishtob,°
and Maacah,°
[were] by themselves°
in the field.° |
10:9
And Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him from that which was opposed in front and from behind, and he chose out [some] of all the young men of Israel, and they set themselves in array against Syria. |
|
10:9
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:° |
10:10
And the rest of the people he gave into the hand of Abishai{gr.Abessa} his brother, and they set the battle in array opposite to the children of Ammon. |
|
10:10
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.° |
10:11
And he said, If Syria be too strong for me, then shall ye help me: and if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then will we be ready to help thee. |
|
10:11
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. |
10:12
Be thou courageous, and let us be strong for our people, and for the sake of the cities of our God, and the Lord shall do that which is good in his eyes. |
|
10:12
Be of good courage,°°
and let us play the men°°
for°
our people,°
and for°
the cities°
of our Elohim:°
and Yahweh°
do°°
that which seemeth°
him good.° |
10:13
And Joab and his people with him advanced to battle against Syria, and they fled from before him. |
|
10:13
And Joab°
drew nigh,°°
and the people°
that°
[were] with°
him, unto the battle°
against the Syrians:°
and they fled°°
before°°
him. |
10:14
And the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, and they fled from before Abishai{gr.Abessa}, and entered into the city: and Joab returned from the children of Ammon, and came to Jerusalem. |
|
10:14
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.° |
10:15 ¶
And the Syrians saw that they were worsted before Israel, and they gathered themselves together. |
|
10:15 ¶
And when the Syrians°
saw°°
that°
they were smitten°°
before°
Israel,°
they gathered°°
themselves°
together.° |
10:16
And Hadadezer{gr.Adraazar} sent and gathered the Syrians from the other side of the river Chalamak, and they came to Elam{gr.Aelam}; and Sobac the captain of the host of Hadadezer{gr.Adraazar} [was] at their head. |
|
10:16
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. |
10:17
And it was reported to David, and he gathered all Israel, and went over Jordan, and came to Elam{gr.Aelam}: and the Syrians set the battle in array against David, and fought with him. |

David,°
he gathered°°
all Israel°
together,°°°°°
and passed over°°°

set themselves in array°°
against°°
David,°
and fought°°
with°
him. |
10:18
And Syria fled from before Israel, and David destroyed of Syria seven hundred chariots, and forty thousand horsemen, and he smote Sobac the captain of his host, and he died there. |
|
10:18
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.° |
10:19
And all the kings the servants of Hadadezer{gr.Adraazar} saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, and they went over to Israel, and served them: and Syria was afraid to help the children of Ammon any more. |
|
10:19
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.° |
