< 1 Chronicles 20 >
1 And it comes to pass, at the time of the turn of the year—at the time of the going out of the messengers—that Joab leads out the force of the host, and destroys the land of the sons of Ammon, and comes in and besieges Rabbah—David is abiding in Jerusalem—and Joab strikes Rabbah, and breaks it down.
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 Hierusalem quando Ioab percussit Rabba et destruxit eam
2 And David takes the crown of their king from off his head, and finds it [to be] a talent of gold [in] weight, and [with] precious stone in it, and it is on the head of David; and he has brought out very much spoil of the city,
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 has brought out the people who [are] in it, and sets [them] to the saw, and to cutting instruments of iron, and to axes; and thus David does to all cities of the sons of Ammon, and David turns back—and all the people—to Jerusalem.
populum autem qui erat in ea eduxit et fecit super eos tribulas et trahas et ferrata carpenta transire ita ut dissicarentur et contererentur sic fecit David cunctis urbibus filiorum Ammon et reversus est cum omni populo suo in Hierusalem
4 And it comes to pass after this, that war remains in Gezer with the Philistines; then Sibbechai the Hushathite has struck Sippai, of the children of the giant, and they are humbled.
post haec initum est bellum in Gazer adversus Philistheos in quo percussit Sobbochai Usathites Saphai de genere Raphaim et humiliavit eos
5 And there is war with the Philistines again, and Elhanan son of Jair strikes Lahmi, brother of Goliath the Gittite, the wood of whose spear [is] like a weavers’ beam.
aliud quoque bellum gestum est adversum Philistheos in quo percussit Adeodatus filius Saltus Lehemites fratrem Goliath Getthei cuius hastae lignum erat quasi liciatorium texentium
6 And there is war in Gath again, and there is a man of [great] measure, and his fingers and his toes [are] six and six—twenty-four [total], and he has also been born to the giant.
sed et aliud bellum accidit in Geth in quo fuit homo longissimus habens digitos senos id est simul viginti quattuor qui et ipse de Rapha fuerat stirpe generatus
7 And he reproaches Israel, and Jonathan son of Shimea, brother of David, strikes him.
hic blasphemavit Israhel et percussit eum Ionathan filius Sammaa fratris David
8 These were born to the giant in Gath, and they fall by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
hii sunt filii Rapha in Geth qui ceciderunt in manu David et servorum eius
