And it came to pass at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go forth, that Joab led forth the power of the army, and laid waste the land of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David abode at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and overthrew it.
2 Devid kpupuru okpueze nke dị eze ha nʼisi, ahụtara nʼịdị arọ nke okpueze ahụ ruru kilogram ọlaedo iri atọ na anọ, nke e ji nkume ndị dị oke ọnụahịa chọọ mma, e kpunyere ya Devid nʼisi. O sitekwara nʼobodo ahụ kwakọrọ ọtụtụ ihe nkwata nʼagha.
And 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] upon David's head: and he brought forth the spoil of the city in great abundance.
3 Ọ kpọpụtara ndị nọ nʼebe ahụ, manye ha nʼịrụ ọrụ nke e ji mma nkwọ e ji awa osisi, na igwe e ji egwu ala, na anyụike na-arụ. Otu a ka Devid mekwara obodo niile nke ndị Amọn. Emesịa, Devid na ndị agha ya niile laghachiri na Jerusalem.
And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with the saw, and with harrows of iron, and with saws. And so David did to all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
4 Mgbe oge gatụrụ, agha ọzọ daara ha na ndị Filistia, na Gaza. Mgbe ahụ, Sibekai, onye Husha, gburu Sipai, otu nʼime ndị agbụrụ Refaim. Nke a mere ka ndị Filistia chilie aka ha elu, bụrụ ndị a lụgburu nʼagha.
And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines; then Sibbechai the Hushathite smote Sippai, one of the children of Rapha; and they were subdued.
5 Nʼagha ọzọ ha na ndị Filistia lụrụ, Elhanan, nwa Jaịa, gburu Lami nwanne Golaịat, onye Gat. Onye ùbe ya nwere osisi dị ogologo dịka nke onye na-ekwe akwa ji ekwe akwa.
And there was again a battle with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair smote Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite; now the shaft of his spear was like a weaver's beam.
6 Nʼagha ọzọkwa, bụ nke a lụrụ na Gat, e nwere otu nwoke gbara oke dimkpa, nke nwere mkpịsịaka isii nʼaka ya ọbụla, nweekwa mkpịsịụkwụ isii nʼụkwụ ya ọbụla, ya bụ, a gụkọtaa ha niile, iri mkpịsịaka na mkpịsịụkwụ abụọ na anọ. Ọ bụkwa onye amụrụ nʼagbụrụ Rafa.
And there was again a battle, at Gath; and there was a man [there] of great stature, whose fingers [and toes] were four and twenty, six [on each hand], and six [on each foot]; and he also was born to Rapha.
7 Mgbe ọ kọchara Izrel, Jonatan nwa Shimea, nwanne Devid gburu ya.
And he defied Israel; but Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother smote him.
8 Ndị a bụ ndị agbụrụ Rafa dị na Gat. Devid na ndị agha ya gburu ha niile.
These were born to Rapha in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
