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.
У другому роцї, під той час, коли царі виступають у поход, вивів Йоаб військо й почав пустошити Аммонїйський край, і прийшов і обляг Раббу. А Давид зістався в Ерусалимі. Йоаб же, завоювавши Раббу, зруйнував її.
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.
І взяв Давид вінець із голови царя їх, а важив він один талант золота, й дорогі каменї були на йому; і вложили його Давидові на голову; та й дуже багато здобитку винїс він із міста.
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 людей, що були в йому, виводив і вбивав їх пилами, залїзними булавами та сокирами. Те саме зробив Давид і з усїма Аммонїйськими містами. І вернувся Давид і ввесь народ у Ерусалим.
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.
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.
Була ще битва в Гетї. Там був один високий ростом чоловік, що в його було по шість палцїв, усїх двайцять чотири. І він так само був із потомків Рефаїмових.
