Første Krønikebog 20
1 Næste År, ved den Tid Kongerne drager i Krig, førte Joab Krigshæren ud og hærgede Ammoniternes Land; derpå drog han hen og belejrede Rabba. David blev derimod selv i Jerusalem. Og Joab indtog Rabba og ødelagde det.
And when the yere was expired, in the time that Kings goe out a warfare, Ioab caryed out the strength of the armie, and destroyed the countrey of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah (but Dauid taryed at Ierusalem) and Ioab smote Rabbah and destroyed it.
2 Da tog David Kronen af Milkoms Hoved, og han fandt, at den var af Guld og vejede en Talent; der var en Ædelsten på den, og den blev sat på Davids Hoved. Et vældigt Bytte fra Byen førte han med sig,
Then Dauid tooke the crowne of their King from off his head, and founde it the weight of a talent of golde, with precious stones in it: and it was set on Dauids head, and he brought away the spoyle of the citie exceeding much.
3 og Indbyggerne slæbte han bort og satte dem til Savene, Jernhakkerne og Økserne. Således gjorde han ved alle Ammonifemes Byer. Derpå vendte David og hele Hæren tilbage til Jerusalem.
And he caryed away the people that were in it, and cut them with sawes, and with harowes of yron, and with axes: euen thus did Dauid with all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then Dauid and all the people came againe to Ierusalem.
4 Siden hen kom det atter til Kamp med Filisterne i Gezer. Husjatiten Sibbekaj nedhuggede da Sippaj, som var af Rafaslægten, og de blev underkuet.
And after this also there arose warre at Gezer with the Philistims: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slewe Sippai, of the children of Haraphah, and they were subdued.
5 Atter kom det til Kamp med Filis, terne. Elhanan, Ja'irs Søn, nedhuggede da Lami, Gatiten Goliats Broder, hvis Spydstage var som en Væverbom.
And there was yet another battell with the Philistims: and Elhanan the sonne of Iair slewe Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spearestaffe was like a weauers beame.
6 Atter kom det til Kamp i Gat. Da var der en kæmpe stor Mand med seks Fingre på hver Hånd og seks Tæer på hver Fod, i alt fire og tyve; han var også af Rafaslægten.
And yet againe there was a battel at Gath, where was a man of a great stature, and his fingers were by sixes, euen foure and twentie, and was also the sonne of Haraphah.
7 Han hånede Israel, og derfor huggede Jonatan, en Søn af Davids Broder Sjim'a, ham ned.
And when he reuiled Israel, Iehonathan the sonne of Shimea Dauids brother did slay him.
8 Disse var af Rafaslægten i Gat; de faldt for Davids og hans Mænds Hånd.
These were borne vnto Haraphah at Gath, and fell by the hand of Dauid: and by the hands of his seruants.
