isake bad ammoniyon ka raja nahash mar gaya, aur usaka putra usake sthan par raja hua.
2 tab daud ne yah socha, ki hanoon ke pita nahash ne jo mujh par praeeti dikhai thee, isaaliye maain bhee us par praeeati dikhaunga. tab daud ne usake pita ke vishay shaanati dene ke liye doot bheje. aur daud ke karpacharee ammoniyon ke desh men hanoon ke pas use shaanati dene ko aae.
3 parantu ammoniyon ke haakim hanoon se kahane lage, daud ne jo tere pas shaanati denevale bheje haai, vah kya teree samajh men tere pita ka adar karane kee manasa se bheje haain? kya usake karmacharee isee manasa se tere pas naheen aa, ki ddoonddh-ddhanddh karen aur nashtt kare, aur desh ka bhed len?
4 tab hanoon ne daud ke karmachariyon ko pakada, aur unake bal mudvaa, aur adho vasr arthata nitamb tak kattvakar unako jane diya.
5 tab kitanon ne jakar daud ko bata diya, ki un purushaen ke sath kaaisa bartav kiya gaya, so us ne logon ko un se milane ke liye bheja kyonki ve purush bahut lajate the. aur raja ne kaha, jab tak tumharee daddhiyan baddh n jaae, tab tak yareeho men tthare raho, aur bad ko lautt ana.
6 jab ammoniyon ne dekha, ki ham daud ko ghainaune lagate haai, tab hanoon aur ammoniyon ne aek hajar kikkar chandee, aramnaharaaim aur arammaka aur soba ko bhejee, ki rath aur savar kiraye par bulaaen.
7 so unhon ne battees hajar rat, aur maka ke raja aur usakee sena ko kiraye par bulaya, aur inhon ne akar medaba ke samhane, apane dere khde kiae. aur ammonee apane apane nagar men se ikatthe hokar ladne ko aae.
8 yah sunakar daud ne yoab aur shooraveeron kee pooree sena ko bheja.
9 tab ammonee nikale aur nagar ke faattk ke pas panati bandhae, aur jo raja aae the, ve un se alag maaidan men the.
11 aur shosh logon ko apane bhai abeeshau ke hath saunp diya, aur unhon ne ammoniyon ke samhane panati bandhaee.
12 aur us ne kaha, yadi aramee mujh par prabal hone lage, to too meree sahayata karana aur yadi ammonee tujh par prabal hone lage, to maain teree sahayata karoonga.
13 too hiyab bandha aur ham sab apane logon aur apane parameshvar ke nagaron ke nimitt purushaarth karen aur yahova jaaisa usako achchha lage, vaaisa hee karega.
14 tab yoab aur jo log usake sath the, araamiyon se yuddh karane ko unake samhane gaa, aur ve usake samhane se bhage.
15 yah dekhkar ki aramee bhag gaae haai, ammonee bhee usake bhai abeeshau ke samhane se bhagakar nagar ke bheetar ghause. tab yoab yarooshalem ko lautt aya.
16 fir yah dekhkar ki ve israaaeliyon se har gaae haain araamiyon ne doot bhejakar mahanad ke par ke araamiyon ko bulavaya, aur hadarejer ke senapaati shaepak ko apana pradhaan banaya.
17 isaka samachar pakar daud ne sab israaaeliyon ko ikattha kiya, aur yaradan par hokar un par chaddhai kee aur unake viruddh panti bandhaai, tab ve us se ladne lage.
18 parantu aramee israaaeliyon se bhage, aur daud ne un men se sat hajar rathaiyon aur chalees hajar pyadon ko mar dala, aur shaepak senapati ko bhee mar dala.
19 yah dekhkar ki ve israaaeliyon se har gaae haai, hadarejer ke karmachaariyon ne daud se sanadhai kee aur usake adhaeen ho gaae aur aramiyon ne ammoniyon kee sahayata fir karanee n chahee.
