At the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out, Joab led out the army and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. Joab struck 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.
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. It was set on David’s head, and he brought very much plunder out of the city.
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.
He brought out the people who were in it, and had them cut with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. David did so to all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then 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.
After this, war arose at Gezer with the Philistines. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Sippai, of the sons of the giant; 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.
Again there was war with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose 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.
There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six on each hand and six on each foot; and he also was born to the giant.
7 Mgbe ọ kọchara Izrel, Jonatan nwa Shimea, nwanne Devid gburu ya.
When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David’s brother, killed him.
8 Ndị a bụ ndị agbụrụ Rafa dị na Gat. Devid na ndị agha ya gburu ha niile.
These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
