歷代志上 20

1 過了一年，到列王出戰的時候，約押率領軍兵毀壞亞捫人的地，圍攻拉巴；大衛仍住在耶路撒冷。約押攻打拉巴，將城傾覆。

Now it happened that, after the course of a year, in the time when kings usually go forth to war, Joab gathered an army with experienced soldiers, and he laid waste to the land of the sons of Ammon. And he continued on and besieged Rabbah. But David was staying in Jerusalem when Joab struck Rabbah and destroyed it.

2 大衛奪了亞捫人之王所戴的金冠冕，其上的金子重一他連得，又嵌着寶石；人將這冠冕戴在大衛頭上。大衛從城裏奪了許多財物，

Then David took the crown of Milcom from his head, and he found in it the weight of one talent of gold, and very precious gems. And he made for himself a diadem from it. Also, he took the best spoils of the city, which were very many.

3 將城裏的人拉出來，放在鋸下，或鐵耙下，或鐵斧下，大衛待亞捫各城的居民都是如此。其後大衛和眾軍都回耶路撒冷去了。

Then he led away the people who were in it. And he caused plows, and sleds, and iron chariots to go over them, so much so that they were cut apart and crushed. So did David treat all the cities of the sons of Ammon. And he returned with all his people to Jerusalem.

4 後來，以色列人在基色與非利士人打仗。戶沙人西比該殺了偉人的一個兒子細派，非利士人就被制伏了。

After these things, a war was begun at Gezer against the Philistines, in which Sibbecai the Hushathite struck Sippai from the race of the Rephaim, and he humbled them.

5 又與非利士人打仗。睚珥的兒子伊勒哈難殺了迦特人歌利亞的兄弟拉哈米；這人的槍桿粗如織布的機軸。

Also, another war was undertaken against the Philistines, in which Adeodatus, a son of the forest, a Bethlehemite, struck the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the wood of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.

6 又在迦特打仗。那裏有一個身量高大的人，手腳都是六指，共有二十四個指頭，他也是偉人的兒子。

Then too, another war occurred in Gath, in which there was a very tall man, having six digits, that is, all together twenty-four. This man too was born from the stock of the Rephaim.

7 這人向以色列人罵陣，大衛的哥哥示米亞的兒子約拿單就殺了他。

He blasphemed Israel. And Jonathan, the son of Shimea, the brother of David, struck him down.

8 這三個人是迦特偉人的兒子，都死在大衛和他僕人的手下。

These were the sons of the Rephaim in Gath, who fell by the hand of David and his servants.
