< 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.
Pada pergantian tahun, pada waktu raja-raja biasanya maju berperang, maka Yoab membawa keluar bala tentaranya, lalu ia memusnahkan negeri bani Amon, kemudian ia maju dan mengepung kota Raba, sedang Daud sendiri tinggal di Yerusalem. Yoab memukul kalah Raba dan meruntuhkannya.
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.
Sesudah itu Daud mengambil mahkota dari kepala raja mereka, beratnya ternyata setalenta emas, bertatahkan sebuah batu permata yang mahal dan itu dikenakan pada kepala Daud. Juga diangkutnya banyak sekali jarahan dari kota itu.
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.
Penduduk kota itu diangkutnya dan dipaksanya bekerja dengan gergaji, penggerek besi dan kapak. Demikianlah juga diperlakukan Daud segala kota bani Amon. Sesudah itu pulanglah Daud dengan seluruh tentara ke Yerusalem.
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.
Sesudah itu timbullah pertempuran melawan orang Filistin di Gezer; pada waktu itu Sibkhai, orang Husa, memukul kalah Sipai, seorang dari keturunan raksasa, dan mereka ditundukkan.
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.
Maka terjadilah lagi pertempuran melawan orang Filistin, lalu Elhanan bin Yair menewaskan Lahmi, saudara Goliat, orang Gat itu, yang gagang tombaknya seperti pesa tukang tenun.
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.
Lalu terjadi lagi pertempuran di Gat; dan di sana ada seorang yang tinggi perawakannya, yang tangannya dan kakinya masing-masing berjari enam: dua puluh empat seluruhnya; juga orang ini termasuk keturunan raksasa.
7 When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimeah David's brother killed him.
Ia mengolok-olok orang Israel, maka Yonatan, anak Simea kakak Daud, menewaskannya.
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.
Orang-orang ini termasuk keturunan raksasa di Gat; mereka tewas oleh tangan Daud dan oleh tangan orang-orangnya.
