< 1 Chronicles 20 >

1 And it came to pass, at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that 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 overthrew it.
Factum est autem post anni circulum, eo tempore, quo solent reges ad bella procedere, congregavit Ioab exercitum, et robur militiae, et vastavit terram filiorum Ammon; perrexitque et obsedit Rabba: porro David manebat in Ierusalem quando Ioab percussit Rabba, et destruxit eam.
2 And David took the crown of Malcam from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it; and it was set upon David's head; and he brought forth the spoil of the city, exceeding much.
Tulit autem David coronam Melchom de capite eius, et invenit in ea auri pondo talentum, et pretiosissimas gemmas, fecitque sibi inde diadema: manubias quoque urbis plurimas tulit:
3 And he brought forth the people that were therein, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. And thus did David unto all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
populum autem, qui erat in ea, eduxit: et fecit super eos tribulas, et trahas, et ferrata carpenta transire, ita ut dissecarentur, et contererentur: sic fecit David cunctis urbibus filiorum Ammon: et reversus est cum omni populo suo in Ierusalem.
4 And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines; then Sibbecai the Hushathite slew Sippai, of the sons of the giants; and they were subdued.
Post haec initum est bellum in Gazer adversum Philisthaeos: in quo percussit Sobochai Husathites, Saphai de genere Raphaim, et humiliavit eos.
5 And there was again war with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
Aliud quoque bellum gestum est adversus Philisthaeos, in quo percussit Adeodatus filius Saltus Bethlehemites fratrem Goliath Gethaei, cuius hastae lignum erat quasi liciatorium texentium.
6 And there was again 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 born unto the giant.
Sed et aliud bellum accidit in Geth, in quo fuit homo longissimus, senos habens digitos, id est, simul viginti quattuor: qui et ipse de Rapha fuerat stirpe generatus.
7 And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.
Hic blasphemavit Israel: et percussit eum Ionathan filius Samaa fratris David.
8 These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
Hi sunt filii Rapha in Geth, qui ceciderunt in manu David et servorum eius.
