1 Chronicles 20
1 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.
Og det skete paa den Tid, der Aaret var omme, paa den Tid Kongerne pleje at uddrage til Krig, da førte Joab Stridshæren ud og ødelagde Ammons Børns Land, og han kom og belejrede Rabba, men David blev i Jerusalem; og Joab slog Rabba og nedbrød den.
2 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.
Og David tog deres Konges Krone fra hans Hoved og fandt, at dens Vægt var et Centner Guld, og der var kostbare Stene i den, og den kom over Davids Hoved; og han bortførte af Staden saare meget Bytte.
3 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.
Men Folket, som var derudi, førte han ud, og han skar dem over med Save og med Jerntærskeslæder og med Knive, og saaledes gjorde David ved alle Ammons Børns Stæder; siden vendte David og alt Folket tilbage til Jerusalem.
4 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.
Og det skete derefter, at der stod et Slag i Geser med Filisterne; da slog Husathiten, Sibekaj, Sifaj af Rafas Børn, og de bleve ydmygede.
5 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.
Og der var endnu en Krig med Filisterne; og Elhanan, Jairs Søn, slog Lahemi, Goliaths, Githitens, Broder, hvis Spydstage var som en Væverstang.
6 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.
Og der var endnu Krig i Gat, og der var en høj Mand, og han havde seks Fingre paa hver Haand og seks Tæer paa hver Fod, i alt fire og tyve, og han var ogsaa født for Rafa.
7 And when he reuiled Israel, Iehonathan the sonne of Shimea Dauids brother did slay him.
Og der han forhaanede Israel, da slog Jonathan, en Søn af Davids Broder Simea, ham ihjel.
8 These were borne vnto Haraphah at Gath, and fell by the hand of Dauid: and by the hands of his seruants.
Disse vare fødte for Rafa i Gat, og de faldt ved Davids Haand og ved hans Tjeneres Haand.
