歷代志上 20

1 [戰敗阿孟]一年復始，正當諸王出征的季節，約阿布統率精兵，蹂躪了阿孟子民的地方，然後去包圍了辣巴，當時達味留在那耶路撒冷。約阿布攻陷了辣巴，加以破壞。

Now in the spring, at the time when kings go out to war, Joab went out at the head of the armed forces and made waste all the land of the Ammonites and put his men in position before Rabbah, shutting it in. But David was still at Jerusalem. And Joab took Rabbah and made it waste.

2 達味從米耳公的頭上，取下他的冠冕來，發現有一點「塔冷通」重的金子，上面還有一塊寶石。達味將這塊寶石戴在自己頭上；並由城中運走了大批的戰利品。

And David took the crown of Milcom from off his head; its weight was a talent of gold and it had stones of great price in it; and it was put on David's head, and he took a great store of goods from the town.

3 至於城內的居民，達味將他們帶走，叫他們拉鋸、持鎚、操斧工作。達味如此對待了阿孟子民所有的城市，然後率領全軍回了耶路撒冷。[三敗培肋舍特]

And he took the people out of the town and put them to work with wood-cutting instruments, and iron grain-crushers, and axes. And this he did to all the towns of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people went back to Jerusalem.

4 這些事以後，右與培肋舍特人在革則爾發生了戰事。胡沙人息貝開擊殺了辣法巨人的後裔息派，他們便投降歸順了。

Now after this there was war with the Philistines at Gezer; then Sibbecai the Hushathite put to death Sippai, one of the offspring of the Rephaim; and they were overcome.

5 以後，又與培肋舍特交戰，雅依爾的兒子厄耳哈難擊殺了加特人哥肋雅的兄弟拉赫米。這人的長矛粗如織布機的橫軸。

And again there was war with the Philistines; and Elhanan, the son of Jair, put to death Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the stem of whose spear was like a cloth-worker's rod.

6 此後，在加特又起了戰事，在那裏有一巨人，兩手各有六指，兩足亦各有六趾，共有二十四個，也是辣法巨人的後裔。

And again there was war at Gath, where there was a very tall man, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet; he was one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

7 由於他辱罵了以色列，達味的兄弟史默亞的兒子約納堂將他殺死：

And when he put shame on Israel, Jonathan, the son of Shimea, David's brother, put him to death.

8 這些人全是加特城辣法巨人的子孫，都喪身在達味和他的臣僕手裏。

These were of the offspring of the Rephaim in Gath; they came to their death by the hands of David and his servants.
