And it came to pass, that after the year was 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 Devit ni hote siangpahrang e bawilakhung hah a la pouh. Ai e teh sui talen buet touh a ri. talung phu kaawmnaw hai ao. Devit hah a kâmuk sak awh teh, khopui thung e hno moikapap a lawp awh.
And David took the crown of their king from off 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: and he brought also exceeding much spoil out of the city.
3 Hote hmuen koehoi taminaw hah a ceikhai teh, thing a e kawi, laikawk kanawknae hnopainaw, cakânaw, hno nahanelah thaw a tawk sak awh. Hot patetlah Ammonnaw e khopui abuemlah Devit ni a sak hnukkhu, Devit hoi a taminaw pueng teh Jerusalem vah a ban awh.
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 dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
4 Hathnukkhu, Filistinnaw hoi Gezer vah tarankâtuknae bout ao. Hushath Sibbekhai ni Rapha catoun thung dawk e Sippai hah a thei awh teh a sung sak awh.
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 Filistinnaw hoi bout kâtuk awh teh, Jair kho e Jair capa Elhanan ni Git tami Goliath e nawngha Lahmi hah a thei. A tahroecung teh hni kawng kalawng e patetlah ao.
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.

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 Ahni ni Isarelnaw a ka pacekpahlek dawkvah, Devit e a nawngha Shimei capa Jonathan ni ahni hah a thei.
But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David’s brother slew him.
8 Hotnaw teh Gath kho dawk kaawm e Rapha tami kalenpounge casak lah ao teh, Devit hoi a sannaw e kut dawk hoi a due awh.
These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
