And it came to pass at the return of the year, at the [time of the] going forth of kings [to war], that Joab gathered the whole force of the army, and they ravaged the land of the children of Ammon; and he came and besieged Rabba. But David abode in Jerusalem. And Joab struck Rabba and destroyed 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 Molchom their king off his head, and the weight of it was found [to be] a talent of gold, and on it were precious stones; and it was [placed] on the head of David: and he brought out the spoils of the city [which were] very great.
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 sawed them asunder with saws, and [cut them] with iron axes, and with harrows: and thus David did to all the children of Ammon. And David and all his 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 afterward that there was again war with the Philistines in Gazer: then Sobochai the Sosathite struck Saphut of the sons of the giants, and laid him low.
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] war again with the Philistines; and Eleanan the son of Jair struck Lachmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, and the wood of his spear [was] as a weavers' 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 war in Geth, and there was a man of extraordinary size, and his fingers [and toes were] six on each hand and foot, four and twenty; and he was descended from the giants.
7 Mgbe ọ kọchara Izrel, Jonatan nwa Shimea, nwanne Devid gburu ya.
And he defied Israel, and Jonathan the son of Samaa the brother of David killed 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 Geth; all four were giants, and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
