1 Chronicles 20
1 And it came to pass, that after the year had expired, at the time that kings go out [to battle], Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.
Asusɔ berɛ, afe mu ɛberɛ a ahemfo kɔ ɔko no, Yoab dii Israel akodɔm anim, kɔto hyɛɛ Amonfoɔ nkuro ne nkuraa so, dii wɔn so nkonim. Akodie no mu no, wɔtuaa Raba kuropɔn no, sɛee no. Saa ɛberɛ no, na Dawid te akyire wɔ Yerusalem.
2 And David took the crown of their king from his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and [there were] precious stones in it; and it was set upon David's head: and he brought also a great quantity of spoil out of the city.
Ɛberɛ a Dawid duruu Raba no, ɔtuu ɔhene no ahenkyɛ, na wɔde hyɛɛ Dawid. Sikakɔkɔɔ na wɔde yɛɛ ahenkyɛ no na wɔde aboɔdemmoɔ abobɔ mu. Na emu duru bɛyɛ kilogram aduasa ɛnan. Dawid faa asadeɛ bebree firii kuro no mu.
3 And he brought out the people that [were] in it, and cut [them] with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so David dealt with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Ɔde Rabafoɔ no yɛɛ nkoa, hyɛɛ wɔn ma wɔde ɛwan, fatudadeɛ ne mmonnua yɛɛ adwuma. Saa ara na ɔhyɛɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Amon nkuropɔn nyinaa so. Na Dawid ne nʼakodɔm sane kɔɔ Yerusalem.
4 And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines: at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Sippai, [that was] of the children of the giant: and they were subdued.
Yei akyi, ɔko sii wɔne Filistifoɔ ntam wɔ Geser. Ɔko no mu, Sibekai a ɔfiri Husa kumm Sipai a ɔyɛ ɔbrane no aseni. Enti wɔkaa Filistifoɔ no hyɛeɛ.
5 And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear-staff [was] like a weaver's beam.
Ɔko foforɔ bi a wɔne Filistifoɔ koeɛ mu no, Yair babarima Elhanan kumm Gatni Goliat nuabarima Lahmi. Na Lahmi pea nsa mu pipiripie te sɛ ntomanwomfoɔ nsadua.
6 And yet again there was war at Gath, where was a man of [great] stature, whose fingers and toes [were] four and twenty, six [on each hand], and six [on each foot]: and he also was the son of the giant.
Ɔko foforɔ bi nso a wɔne Filistifoɔ koo wɔ Gat no, ɔbrane bi a ɔyɛ abrane asefoɔ no bi a ɔyɛ nsansia yɛ nansia wɔ ne nsa ne ne nan biara so no
7 But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David's brother, slew him.
buu Israel animtia, twitwaa mpoa. Na Dawid nuabarima Simea babarima Yonatan kumm no.
8 These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
Na saa Filistifoɔ yi yɛ Gat abrane no asefoɔ nanso Dawid ne nʼakofoɔ kunkumm wɔn.
