1 Khokhuen 20
1 Kum a thok tue kah manghai a pawk tue vaengah tah Joab loh tatthai caempuei te a hmaithawn tih Ammon koca kah khohmuen te a phae pah. Te phoeiah cet tih Rabbah te a dum. David te Jerusalem ah kho a sak vaengah Joab loh Rabbah te a tloek tih a koengloeng.
And it came to pass, that after the year had expired, at the time that kings go out [to battle], Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.
2 David loh amih kah manghai rhuisam te a lu dong lamloh a loh pah. Te te a khiing sui talent khat lo tih a khuiah lung vang om. Te tah David lu dongah om tih khopuei kah kutbuem a khuen khaw bahoeng yet.
And David took the crown of their king from his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and [there were] precious stones in it; and it was set upon David's head: and he brought also a great quantity of spoil out of the city.
3 A khuikah pilnam te khaw a khuen tih hlawh taengah, thi yoeng taengah, hlawh te a ah sak. Te tlam te David loh Ammon koca rhoek kah khopuei boeih te a saii. Te phoeiah ni David neh a pilnam boeih te Jerusalem la a mael pueng.
And he brought out the people that [were] in it, and cut [them] with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so David dealt with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
4 A hnukah khaw Gezer ah Philisti neh caemtloek koep puek bal. Te vaengah Khushathi Sibbekhai loh Rapha cahlah lamkah Sippai te a ngawn sak tih a kunyun sakuh.
And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines: at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Sippai, [that was] of the children of the giant: and they were subdued.
5 Te phoeiah Philisti neh caemtloek om bal tih Jair kah Jair capa Elhanan loh Ghitti Goliath mana Lahmi te a ngawn. Anih kah caai tueng te hni tak kah tampai bangla om.
And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear-staff [was] like a weaver's beam.
6 Gath ah caemtloek om bal tih cungkui hlang kaw om. A kutdawn khodawn parhuk, parhuk neh pakul pali lo. Anih khaw Rapha lamkah ca sak ni.
And yet again there was war at Gath, where was a man of [great] stature, whose fingers and toes [were] four and twenty, six [on each hand], and six [on each foot]: and he also was the son of the giant.
7 Israel te a veet dongah anih te David maya Shimea capa Jonathan loh a ngawn.
But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David's brother, slew him.
8 Rapha lamkah a sak rhoek he Gath ah David kut neh a sal rhoek kut ah cungku uh.
These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
