< 1 Chronicles 20 >
1 It happened, at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out, that Joab led forth the army, and wasted the country of the people of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. Joab struck Rabbah, and overthrew it.
过了一年,到列王出战的时候,约押率领军兵毁坏亚扪人的地,围攻拉巴;大卫仍住在耶路撒冷。约押攻打拉巴,将城倾覆。
2 David took the crown of their king from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it; and it was set on David's head: and he brought forth the spoil of the city, a very great amount.
大卫夺了亚扪人之王所戴的金冠冕,其上的金子重一他连得,又嵌着宝石;人将这冠冕戴在大卫头上。大卫从城里夺了许多财物,
3 He brought forth the people who were in it, and set them to work with saws, and with iron picks, and with axes. David did so to all the cities of the people of Ammon. David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
将城里的人拉出来,放在锯下,或铁耙下,或铁斧下,大卫待亚扪各城的居民都是如此。其后大卫和众军都回耶路撒冷去了。
4 Now it happened afterward that there was again war with the Philistines at Gezer; then Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Saph, a descendant of the Rephaim; and they were subdued.
后来,以色列人在基色与非利士人打仗。户沙人西比该杀了伟人的一个儿子细派,非利士人就被制伏了。
5 There was again war with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair the Bethlehemite killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
又与非利士人打仗。睚珥的儿子伊勒哈难杀了迦特人歌利亚的兄弟拉哈米;这人的枪杆粗如织布的机轴。
6 There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes were twenty-four, six on each hand, and six on each foot; and he also was descended from the Raphah.
又在迦特打仗。那里有一个身量高大的人,手脚都是六指,共有二十四个指头,他也是伟人的儿子。
7 When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimeah David's brother killed him.
这人向以色列人骂阵,大卫的哥哥示米亚的儿子约拿单就杀了他。
8 These were the descendants of the Raphah in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
这三个人是迦特伟人的儿子,都死在大卫和他仆人的手下。
