1 Chronicles 20
1 [In that region], kings usually went [with their armies] to fight [their enemies] (in the springtime/when the cold season ended). But that year, David [did not do that. Instead, he] stayed in Jerusalem, and he sent [his commander] Joab [to lead the army]. Joab took his troops. They [crossed the Jordan River and] ruined the land of the Ammon people-group. Then they went to Rabbah, [the capital city, ] and surrounded it. David stayed in Jerusalem [for a while. But later he took more troops and went to help] Joab. Their armies attacked Rabbah and destroyed it.
Aya odega, woufo eso, hina bagade ilia gegemusa: hamonana eso amoga, Youa: be da A: mone soge doagala: le, La: ba moilai bai bagade eale disi. Be hina bagade Da: ibidi da Yelusalemega ouesalu. Ilia da La: ba doagala: le, gugunufinisi dagoi.
2 Then David took the crown from the head of the king of Rabbah (OR, from the head of their god Milcom) and put it on his own head. It [was very heavy; it] weighed (75 pounds/34 kg.), and it had many very valuable stones [fastened to it]. They also took many other valuable things from the city.
Ilia A: mone loboga hamoi ogogosu ‘gode’ Miligome, amo ea dialumaga gouli habuga lai. Amo habuga ea dioi defei da35 gilogala: me agoane amola amoga gele noga: idafa legei ba: i. Da: ibidi da amo gele noga: i habuga lale, ea habuga da: iya legei. Amola amo moilaiga e da liligi bagohame susugui.
3 Then they brought the people out of the city and forced them to [work for their army, ] using saws and iron picks and axes. David’s soldiers did this in all the cities of the Ammon people-group. Then David and all of his army returned to Jerusalem.
Amalalu, e da La: ba dunu huluane udigili hawa: hamoma: ne logei. E logebeba: le, ilia da sasahei amola gula uwasu amola goahei amoga hamosu. E da A: mone soge moilai gagai esalebe dunu amo huluane hawa: hamoma: ne logei. Amalalu, e amola ea dunu da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega buhagi.
4 Later, [David’s army] fought a battle with the army of Philistia, at Gezer [city]. During the battle Sibbecai, from Hushah [clan], killed Sippai, one of the descendants of the Rapha [giants]. So the armies of Philistia were defeated.
Amogalu fa: no, Isala: ili dunu da Filisidini dunuma Gisa sogega gegei. Amo gegesu ganodini, Hiusia fi dunu amo Sibigai, ea da dunu bagade ea dio amo Sa: fe fane legei, amola Isala: ili dunu da Filisidini dunu hasali.
5 In another battle against the soldiers of Philistia, Elhanan, the son of Jair, killed Lahmi, the [younger] brother of [the giant] Goliath from Gath [town], who had a spear which was as thick as a weaver’s rod.
Isala: ili dunu da Filisidini dunuma eno gegei. Amoga Eleha: ina: ne (Bedeleheme dunu Yie amo egefe) da Ga: de dunu Goulaia: de eya Lamai, amo fane legei. Ea goge agei ea gadugagi defei da abula amunasu masini fanu ea defei amo defele galu.
6 There was another battle near Gath. A (huge man/giant) was there who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot. He was descended from [the] Rapha [giants].
Amalalu, gegesu eno da Ga: de moilai ba: i. Amogawi, dunu bagadedafa esalu. E da gegemu bagade hanai galusu. Ea lobo da afae afae lobosogo gafeyale galu amola ea emo afae afae amoga emo sasafo gafeyale galu. E da musa: hemonega dunu bagadedafa fi, iligaga fi dunu esalu.
7 When he made fun of the soldiers of Israel, Jonathan, the son of David’s [older] brother Shimea, killed him.
E da Isala: ili dunuma gegene halasu. Amalalu, Yonada: ne (Da: ibidi ea ola Sia: ma amo egefe) da e fane legei.
8 Those were some of the descendants of [the] Rapha [giants] who had lived in Gath, who were killed [MTY] by David and his soldiers.
Amo Filisidini dunu osoda da Ga: de fi dunu bagadedafa amo iligaga fi dunu. Amola Da: ibidi amola ea dunu da ili fane legei dagoi.
