1 Chronicles 19
Maori Bible
19 Na i muri i tenei ka mate a Nahaha kingi o nga tama a Amona, a ko tana tama te kingi i muri i a ia.
2 Na ka mea a Rawiri, Ka puta toku aroha ki a Hanunu tama a Nahaha; i puta hoki te aroha o tona papa ki ahau. Na ka unga e Rawiri etahi tangata ki te whakamarie i a ia mo tona papa. Na kua tae nga tangata a Rawiri ki te whenua o nga tama a Amona ki a Hanunu, ki te whakamarie i a ia.
3 Otiia ka mea nga rangatira o nga tama a Amona ki a Hanunu, Ki tou whakaaro he whakahonore na Rawiri i tou papa i tonoa mai ai e ia nga kaiwhakamarie ki a koe? he teka ianei he titiro, he whakangaro, he tutei i te whenua te mea i haere mai ai ana tangata ki a koe?
4 Heoi ka mau a Hanunu ki nga tangata a Rawiri, heua ana e ia, tapahia ana o ratou kakahu ki waenga, i te ritenga iho o o ratou papa, a tonoa atu ana ratou.
5 Katahi ka haere etahi, ka korero ki a Rawiri i te meatanga ki aua tangata. Na ka tono tangata ia ki te whakatau i a ratou; he nui hoki te whakama o aua tangata. A ka mea te kingi, Hei Heriko koutou noho ai, kia tupu ra ano o koutou pahau, ko reir a hoki mai ai.
6 A, no te kitenga o nga tama a Amona e piro ana ratou ki a Rawiri, ka hoatu e Hanunu ratou ko nga tama a Amona etahi taranata hiriwa kotahi mano kia kawea hei utu hariata, kaieke hoiho, i Mehopotamia, i Aramamaaka, i Topa.
7 Heoi e toru tekau ma rua mano hariata i utua e ratou, me te kingi ano o Maaka ratou ko ana tangata; a haere mai ana ratou, noho ana ki mua i Merepa. Na ka huihui nga tama a Amona i o ratou pa, haere ana mai ki te whawhai.
8 A, i te rongonga o Rawiri, ka tonoa e ia a Ioapa ratou ko te ope katoa, ara nga marohirohi.
9 Na ka puta nga tama a Amona ki waho, a whakatakotoria ana o ratou ngohi ki te kuwaha o te pa. Na, ko nga kingi i haere nei, he mea motu ke ratou i te parae.
10 A, no te kitenga o Ioapa e akina ana a mua, a muri ona e te hoariri, ka whiriwhiria e ia etahi i roto i te hunga whiriwhiri katoa o Iharaira, a whakaritea ana e ia hei tu i nga Hiriani:
11 Ko te nuinga atu hoki o te iwi i tukua e ia ki te ringa o Apihai, o tona teina, a ka whakatikaia ratou e ratou hei tu i nga tama a Amona.
12 I mea ano ia, Ki te kaha nga Hiriani i ahau, me awhina mai ahau e koe; ki te kaha ia nga tama a Amona i a koe, na maku koe e awhina atu.
13 Kia maia, kia whakatane tatou; me whakaaro ki to tatou iwi, ki nga pa o to tatou Atua, a ma Ihowa e mea te mea e pai ana ki tana titiro.
14 Heoi, ko te whakatatanga o Ioapa ratou ko tona nuinga ki te whawhai ki nga Hiriani, na, rere ana ratou i tona aroaro.
15 A, no te kitenga o nga tama a Amona kua rere nga Hiriani, na, ka rere ano ratou i te aroaro o tona teina, o Apihai, a haere ana ki roto ki te pa. Katahi ka haere a Ioapa ki Hiruharama.
16 A, no te kitenga o nga Hiriani kua patua ratou e Iharaira, ka tono tangata a ka tikina atu nga Hiriani i tawahi o te awa: a ko Topaka rangatira o te ope a Hararetere ki mua i a ratou.
17 Na ka korerotia ki a Rawiri, a ka huihuia e ia a Iharaira katoa, a whiti ana ki tawahi o Horano, whakaekea ana e ia, whakatikaia ana e ia nga ngohi hei tu i a ratou. Na, ka oti nga ngohi te whakatika e Rawiri hei tu i nga Hiriani, ka whawhai rat ou ki a ia.
18 Na ka rere nga Hiriani i te aroaro o Iharaira; a patua iho o nga Hiriani e Rawiri nga tangata o nga hariata e whitu mano, e wha tekau mano nga tangata haere i raro; i patua ano e ia a Topaka te rangatira ope.
19 A, i te kitenga o nga tangata a Hararetere kua mate ratou i a Iharaira, ka houhia e ratou te rongo ki a Rawiri, a ka meinga ratou te rongo ki a Rawiri, a ka meinga ratou hei tangata mana: kihai hoki nga Hiriani i pai ki te awhina i nga tama a Am ona i muri atu.

David Defeats the Ammonites(A)
19 In the course of time, Nahash king of the Ammonites(B) died, and his son succeeded him as king. 2 David thought, “I will show kindness to Hanun son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me.” So David sent a delegation to express his sympathy to Hanun concerning his father.
When David’s envoys came to Hanun in the land of the Ammonites to express sympathy to him, 3 the Ammonite commanders said to Hanun, “Do you think David is honoring your father by sending envoys to you to express sympathy? Haven’t his envoys come to you only to explore and spy out(C) the country and overthrow it?” 4 So Hanun seized David’s envoys, shaved them, cut off their garments at the buttocks, and sent them away.
5 When someone came and told David about the men, he sent messengers to meet them, for they were greatly humiliated. The king said, “Stay at Jericho till your beards have grown, and then come back.”
6 When the Ammonites realized that they had become obnoxious(D) to David, Hanun and the Ammonites sent a thousand talents[a] of silver to hire chariots and charioteers from Aram Naharaim,[b] Aram Maakah and Zobah.(E) 7 They hired thirty-two thousand chariots and charioteers, as well as the king of Maakah with his troops, who came and camped near Medeba,(F) while the Ammonites were mustered from their towns and moved out for battle.
8 On hearing this, David sent Joab out with the entire army of fighting men. 9 The Ammonites came out and drew up in battle formation at the entrance to their city, while the kings who had come were by themselves in the open country.
10 Joab saw that there were battle lines in front of him and behind him; so he selected some of the best troops in Israel and deployed them against the Arameans. 11 He put the rest of the men under the command of Abishai(G) his brother, and they were deployed against the Ammonites. 12 Joab said, “If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you are to rescue me; but if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will rescue you. 13 Be strong, and let us fight bravely for our people and the cities of our God. The Lord will do what is good in his sight.”
14 Then Joab and the troops with him advanced to fight the Arameans, and they fled before him. 15 When the Ammonites realized that the Arameans were fleeing, they too fled before his brother Abishai and went inside the city. So Joab went back to Jerusalem.
16 After the Arameans saw that they had been routed by Israel, they sent messengers and had Arameans brought from beyond the Euphrates River, with Shophak the commander of Hadadezer’s army leading them.
17 When David was told of this, he gathered all Israel(H) and crossed the Jordan; he advanced against them and formed his battle lines opposite them. David formed his lines to meet the Arameans in battle, and they fought against him. 18 But they fled before Israel, and David killed seven thousand of their charioteers and forty thousand of their foot soldiers. He also killed Shophak the commander of their army.
19 When the vassals of Hadadezer saw that they had been routed by Israel, they made peace with David and became subject to him.
So the Arameans were not willing to help the Ammonites anymore.
