< 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.
A, i te takanga o te tau, i te wa e haere ai nga kingi ki te whawhai, na, ka arahina atu he taua maia e Ioapa; a huna iho e ratou te whenua o nga tama a Amona; haere ana, kei te whakapae i Rapa. Ko Rawiri ia i noho ki Hiruharama. Na ka patua a Ra pa e Ioapa, ngaro ana i a ia.
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,
Tangohia ana e Rawiri te karauna o to ratou kingi i tona matenga, a ko tona taimaha i kitea e ia, kotahi taranata koura, he kohatu utu nui ano o taua karauna; potaea iho ki te matenga o Rawiri. I whakaputaina ano e ia nga taonga o te pa, tona tin i.
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.
Na, ko nga tangata i roto, whakaputaina ana e ia ki waho, poroporoa iho e ia ki te kani, ki te rakaraka rino, ki te toki. Ko ta Rawiri tenei i mea ai ki nga pa katoa o nga tama a Amona. Na hoki ana a Rawiri me te iwi katoa ki Hiruharama.
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.
A, i muri iho i tenei ka tupu te whakawhai ki nga Pirihitini ki Ketere: katahi ka patua e Hipekai Huhati a Hipai o nga tama a Rapa; na pehia ana ratou ki raro.
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.
A ka ara ano he whawhai ki nga Pirihitini; na ka patua e Erehanana, tama a Iaare, a Rahami teina o Koriata o Kata, ko te kakau o tana taoroa, rite tonu ki te rakau a te kaiwhatu.
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.
Na i whawhai ano ki Kata, a i reira tetahi tangata roa, ko nga maihao o ona ringa me ona waewae e rua tekau ma wha, takiono ki ia ringa, a takiono ki ia waewae; a he uri ia no Rapa.
7 And he reproaches Israel, and Jonathan son of Shimea, brother of David, strikes him.
I tana whakataranga i a Iharaira, patua ana ia e Honatana tama a Himea tuakana o Rawiri.
8 These were born to the giant in Gath, and they fall by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
I whanau enei a Rapa ki Kata; a hinga ana i te ringa o Rawiri, i te ringa ano o ana tangata.
