In the spring, at the time when kings march out to war, Joab led out the army and ravaged the land of the Ammonites. He came to Rabbah and besieged it, but David remained in Jerusalem. And Joab attacked Rabbah and demolished it.
2 David mah nihcae siangpahrang lu pong ih angraeng lumuek to lak pae; to ih angraeng lumuek loe sui talent maeto azit moe, atho kaom thlung hoiah sak o; to lumuek loe David ih lu ah suek pae o; vangpui thung hoiah paroeai kapop lomh o ih hmuennawk to a lak o,
Then David took the crown from the head of their king. It was found to weigh a talent of gold and was set with precious stones, and it was placed on David’s head. And David took a great amount of plunder from the city.
3 vangpui thung kaom kaminawk to hoih o moe, nihcae to sarang hoiah aah o, sumboeng hoi caka hoiah boeng o. David mah Ammon kaminawk to tiah sak pacoengah, kaminawk hoi nawnto Jerusalem ah amlaem.
David brought out the people who were there and put them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes. And he did the same to all the Ammonite cities. Then David and all his troops returned to Jerusalem.
4 To pacoengah Gezer vangpui ah Philistinnawk hoi misa angtuk o, Hushath kami Sibbekhai mah Raphaim acaeng Sippai to hum moe, Philistinnawk to pazawk.
Some time later, war broke out with the Philistines at Gezer. At that time Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Sippai, a descendant of the Rephaim, and the Philistines were subdued.
5 Philistin kaminawk hoi misa angtukhaih ahmuen kalah maeto ah, Jair capa Elthanan mah, thangbui no baktih kanoe tayae sinkung, Git acaeng Goliath ih amnawk Lahmi to hum.
Once again there was a battle with the Philistines, and Elhanan son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.

And there was still another battle at Gath, where there was a man of great stature with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot—twenty-four in all. He too was descended from Rapha,
7 Anih mah Israel kaminawk to khet patoek pongah, David amnawk Shimea capa Jonathan mah anih to hum.
and when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of David’s brother Shimei killed him.
8 Hae kaminawk loe Gath vangpui ah kaom kalen parai kami Rapha ah oh o, nihcae loe David hoi anih ih kaminawk ban ah duek o.
So these descendants of Rapha in Gath fell at the hands of David and his servants.
