1 Después murió Nahas, rey de los amonitas, y su hijo reinó en su lugar.
1 After this, Nahash the king of the children of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his place.
2 David dijo: «Trataré bien a Hanún, hijo de Nahas, porque su padre me trató bien». Envió mensajeros a darle el pésame por la muerte de su padre. Llegaron a la tierra de los amonitas para consolarlo.
2 David said, “I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. David’s servants came into the land of the children of Ammon to Hanun to comfort him.
3 Pero los jefes amonitas le dijeron a Hanún: «¿Crees que David envió a esos hombres para honrar a tu padre? ¡Han venido a explorar la tierra y espiarla para conquistarla!».
3 But the princes of the children of Ammon said to Hanun, “Do you think that David honors your father, in that he has sent comforters to you? Haven’t his servants come to you to search, to overthrow, and to spy out the land?”
4 Hanún capturó a los mensajeros de David, les afeitó la barba y les cortó la ropa a la altura de las nalgas. Luego los dejó ir.
4 So Hanun took David’s servants, shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle at their buttocks, and sent them away.
5 Cuando David supo lo ocurrido, envió hombres a encontrarlos porque habían quedado muy avergonzados. Les mandó decir: «Quédense en Jericó hasta que les crezca la barba; después regresen».
5 Then some people went and told David how the men were treated. He sent to meet them; for the men were greatly humiliated. The king said, “Stay at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return.”
6 Al comprender que se habían ganado la enemistad de David, Hanún y los amonitas enviaron mil talentos de plata para contratar carros de guerra y jinetes de Mesopotamia, Aram-maaca y Sobá.
6 When the children of Ammon saw that they had made themselves odious to David, Hanun and the children of Ammon sent one thousand talents of silver to hire chariots and horsemen out of Mesopotamia, out of Aram-maacah, and out of Zobah.
7 Contrataron treinta y dos mil carros y al rey de Maaca con sus tropas, que acamparon frente a Medeba. Los amonitas se reunieron desde sus ciudades para combatir.
7 So they hired for themselves thirty-two thousand chariots, and the king of Maacah with his people, who came and encamped near Medeba. The children of Ammon gathered themselves together from their cities, and came to battle.
8 Cuando David lo supo, envió a Joab con todo el ejército de guerreros valientes.
8 When David heard of it, he sent Joab with all the army of the mighty men.
9 Los amonitas formaron frente a la entrada de la ciudad, mientras los reyes que habían acudido se apostaron aparte en el campo.
9 The children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array at the gate of the city; and the kings who had come were by themselves in the field.
10 Joab vio que tenía enemigos delante y detrás. Escogió a los mejores soldados israelitas y los formó contra los arameos.
10 Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose some of all the choice men of Israel, and put them in array against the Syrians.
11 Puso al resto bajo las órdenes de su hermano Abisai para enfrentar a los amonitas.
11 The rest of the people he committed into the hand of Abishai his brother; and they put themselves in array against the children of Ammon.
12 Le dijo: «Si los arameos me superan, ven a ayudarme; y si los amonitas te superan, yo iré en tu ayuda.
12 He said, “If the Syrians are too strong for me, then you are to help me; but if the children of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will help you.
13 ¡Ánimo! Luchemos con valor por nuestro pueblo y por las ciudades de nuestro Dios. Que el Señor haga lo que le parezca bien».
13 Be courageous, and let’s be strong for our people and for the cities of our God. May Yahweh do that which seems good to him.”
14 Joab y sus hombres avanzaron contra los arameos, que huyeron ante ellos.
14 So Joab and the people who were with him came near to the front of the Syrians to the battle; and they fled before him.
15 Al verlos huir, los amonitas también escaparon de Abisai y entraron en la ciudad. Joab regresó a Jerusalén.
15 When the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians had fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
16 Los arameos, derrotados por Israel, mandaron llamar a los que estaban al otro lado del río Éufrates. Los dirigía Sofac, jefe del ejército de Hadadezer.
16 When the Syrians saw that they were defeated by Israel, they sent messengers and called out the Syrians who were beyond the River, with Shophach the captain of the army of Hadadezer leading them.
17 Al enterarse, David reunió a todo Israel, cruzó el Jordán y formó sus tropas frente a los arameos. Entonces comenzó la batalla.
17 David was told that, so he gathered all Israel together, passed over the Jordan, came to 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.
18 Los arameos huyeron ante Israel. David mató a los hombres de siete mil carros arameos y a cuarenta mil soldados de infantería. También mató a Sofac, el jefe del ejército.
18 The Syrians fled before Israel; and David killed of the Syrian men seven thousand charioteers and forty thousand footmen, and also killed Shophach the captain of the army.
19 Los vasallos de Hadadezer hicieron la paz con David y se sometieron a él cuando vieron que Israel los había vencido. Desde entonces los arameos no quisieron volver a ayudar a los amonitas.
19 When the servants of Hadadezer saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with David and served him. The Syrians would not help the children of Ammon any more.
