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.
ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ବର୍ଷର ପରିବର୍ତ୍ତନ ସମୟରେ ରାଜାମାନେ ଯୁଦ୍ଧକୁ ଯିବା ବେଳେ, ଯୋୟାବ ସୈନ୍ୟଦଳ ନେଇ ଅମ୍ମୋନ-ସନ୍ତାନଗଣର ଦେଶ ଉଚ୍ଛିନ୍ନ କଲା ଓ ରବ୍ବାକୁ ଯାଇ ତାହା ଅବରୋଧ କଲା। ମାତ୍ର, ଦାଉଦ ଯିରୂଶାଲମରେ ରହିଲେ। ଏଥିମଧ୍ୟରେ ଯୋୟାବ ରବ୍ବାକୁ ଆଘାତ କରି ଭୂମିସାତ୍ କଲା।
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.
ପୁଣି, ଦାଉଦ ସେମାନଙ୍କ ରାଜାର ମସ୍ତକରୁ ମୁକୁଟ କାଢ଼ି ନେଲେ, ଆଉ ଦେଖିଲେ ଯେ, ତାହା ଏକ ତାଳନ୍ତ ପରିମିତ ସ୍ୱର୍ଣ୍ଣ ଓ ତହିଁରେ ବହୁମୂଲ୍ୟ ପ୍ରସ୍ତରମାନ ଥିଲା। ପୁଣି, ତାହା ଦାଉଦଙ୍କର ମସ୍ତକରେ ଦିଆଗଲା; ଆଉ ସେ ସେହି ନଗରର ପ୍ରଚୁର ଲୁଟଦ୍ରବ୍ୟ ବାହାର କରି ଆଣିଲେ।
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.
ଆହୁରି, ସେ ତନ୍ମଧ୍ୟବର୍ତ୍ତୀ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ବାହାର କରି ଆଣି କରତ ଓ ଲୁହାର ମଇ ଓ କୁହ୍ରାଡ଼ି ଦ୍ୱାରା ଛେଦନ କଲେ। ଏହି ପ୍ରକାରେ ଦାଉଦ ଅମ୍ମୋନ-ସନ୍ତାନଗଣର ସମୁଦାୟ ନଗର ପ୍ରତି କଲେ। ଏଉତ୍ତାରେ ଦାଉଦ ଓ ସମସ୍ତ ଲୋକ ଯିରୂଶାଲମକୁ ଫେରି ଆସିଲେ।
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.
ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ଗେଷରରେ ପଲେଷ୍ଟୀୟମାନଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଯୁଦ୍ଧ ଲାଗିଲା; ତହିଁରେ ହୂଶାତୀୟ ସିବ୍ବଖୟ ଦୀର୍ଘକାୟ ବଂଶଜାତ ସିପ୍ପୀକୁ ବଧ କଲା, ଯେ ରଫାୟୀମର ଏକ ବଂଶଜ ଥିଲା ପୁଣି ସେମାନେ ପରାସ୍ତ ହେଲେ।
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.
ଏଉତ୍ତାରେ ପୁନର୍ବାର ପଲେଷ୍ଟୀୟମାନଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଯୁଦ୍ଧ ହେଲା, ତହିଁରେ ଯାୟୀରର ପୁତ୍ର ଇଲ୍ହାନନ୍ ତନ୍ତୀର ନରାଜ ତୁଲ୍ୟ ବର୍ଚ୍ଛାଧାରୀ ଗାଥୀୟ ଗଲୀୟାତର ଭ୍ରାତା ଲହମିକୁ ବଧ କଲା।
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].
ଏଉତ୍ତାରେ ପୁନର୍ବାର ଗାଥ୍ ନଗରରେ ଯୁଦ୍ଧ ହେଲା, ସେଠାରେ ଅତି ଦୀର୍ଘକାୟ; ପୁଣି, ପ୍ରତି ହସ୍ତ ଓ ପାଦରେ ଛଅ ଛଅ ଅଙ୍ଗୁଳି, ସର୍ବସୁଦ୍ଧା ଚବିଶ ଅଙ୍ଗୁଳିବିଶିଷ୍ଟ ଏକ ଜଣ ଥିଲା; ସେ ମଧ୍ୟ ଦୀର୍ଘକାୟ ବଂଶଜାତ।
7 When he made fun of the soldiers of Israel, Jonathan, the son of David’s [older] brother Shimea, killed him.
ପୁଣି, ସେ ଇସ୍ରାଏଲକୁ ତୁଚ୍ଛ କରନ୍ତେ, ଦାଉଦଙ୍କର ଭ୍ରାତା ଶିମୀୟର ପୁତ୍ର ଯୋନାଥନ ତାହାକୁ ବଧ କଲା।
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.
ଏମାନେ ଗାଥ୍ ନଗରରେ ଦୀର୍ଘକାୟ ବଂଶରେ ଜନ୍ମିଥିଲେ; ଏମାନେ ଦାଉଦଙ୍କ ହସ୍ତରେ ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ଦାସମାନଙ୍କ ହସ୍ତରେ ବଧ ହେଲେ।
