І сталося по році, того ча́су, як царі вихо́дили на війну, то Йоав повів військо́ву силу, та й нищив аммонітський край. І прийшов він і обліг Раббу, а Давид сидів в Єрусалимі. І побив Йоав Раббу, і зруйнував її.
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.
І зняв Давид корону їхнього царя з голови його, і знайшов, що вага́ її́ талант золота, а на ній камі́ння дорогоцінне, — і була покладена вона на голову Давидову! І він виніс дуже багато здо́бичі з того міста.
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.
А наро́д, що був у ньому, повиво́див, і перетина́в їх пи́лками, і забивав залі́зними доло́тами та сокирами... І так робив Давид усім аммонітським міста́м. І вернувся Давид та ввесь наро́д до Єрусалиму.
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.
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.
