It happened [a]in the spring of the year, at the time kings go out to battle, that Joab led out the armed forces and ravaged the country of the people of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. And Joab defeated Rabbah and overthrew it.
Через год, в то время, когда цари выходят на войну, вывел Иоав войско и стал разорять землю Аммонитян, и пришёл и осадил Равву. Давид же оставался в Иерусалиме. Иоав, завоевав Равву, разрушил её.
Then David took their king’s crown from his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it. And it was set on David’s head. Also he brought out the [b]spoil of the city in great abundance.
И взял Давид венец царя их с головы его, и в нём оказалось весу талант золота, и драгоценные камни были на нём; и был он возложен на голову Давида. И добычи очень много вынес из города.
And he brought out the people who were in it, and [c]put them to work with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. So David did to all the cities of the people of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
А народ, который был в нём, вывел и умерщвлял их пилами, железными молотилами и секирами. Так поступил Давид со всеми городами Аммонитян, и возвратился Давид и весь народ в Иерусалим.
Now it happened afterward that war broke out at [d]Gezer with the Philistines, at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite killed [e]Sippai, who was one of the sons of [f]the giant. And they were subdued.
Again there was war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of [g]Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
И опять была война с Филистимлянами. Тогда Елханам, сын Иаира, поразил Лахмия, брата Голиафова, Гефянина, у которого древко копья было, как навой у ткачей.
Yet again there was war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, with twenty-four fingers and toes, six on each hand and six on each foot; and he also was born to [h]the giant.
