1 Tawarikh 20
1 Musim semi berikutnya, pada waktu raja-raja biasanya pergi berperang, Yoab mengerahkan tentaranya dan merebut negeri Amon. Pada waktu itu Raja Daud tetap di Yerusalem, dan tidak ikut. Yoab dan tentaranya mengepung kota Raba, lalu menyerang dan memusnahkan kota itu.
And it came to pass after the course of a year, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab gathered together an army and the strength of the troops, and wasted the land of the children of Ammon: and went and besieged Rabba. But David stayed at Jerusalem, when Joab smote Rabba, and destroyed it.
2 Setelah itu Daud datang dan mengambil banyak sekali barang rampasan dari kota itu. Di antara barang-barang itu ada mahkota raja Amon. Mahkota itu beratnya kira-kira 34 kilogram dan bertatahkan sebuah permata. Daud mengambil permata itu dan memasangnya pada mahkotanya sendiri.
And David took the crown of Melchom from his head, and found in it a talent weight of gold, and most precious stones, and he made himself a diadem of it: he took also the spoils of the city which were very great.
3 Kemudian Daud mengangkut penduduk kota Raba itu dan memaksa mereka bekerja dengan memakai gergaji, cangkul dan kapak. Hal itu dilakukannya juga terhadap kota-kota Amon yang lain. Sesudah itu Daud dan seluruh tentaranya kembali ke Yerusalem.
And the people that were therein he brought out: and made harrows, and sleds, and chariots of iron to go over them, so that they were cut and bruised to pieces: in this manner David dealt with all the cities of the children of Ammon: and he returned with alibis people to Jerusalem.
4 Beberapa waktu sesudah itu pecah lagi perang melawan orang Filistin di Gezer. Dalam salah satu pertempuran itu Sibkhai orang Husa membunuh seorang raksasa bernama Sipai. Maka orang Filistin pun kalah.
After this there arose a war at Gazer against the Philistines: in which Sabachai the Husathite slew Saphai of the race of Raphaim, and humbled them.
5 Dalam pertempuran lain melawan orang Filistin, Elhanan anak Yair membunuh Lahmi saudara Goliat orang Gat. Gagang tombak Lahmi itu sebesar kayu alat tenun.
Another battle also was fought against the Philistines, in which Adeodatus the son of Saltus a Bethlehemite slew the brother of Goliath the Gethite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
6 Dalam pertempuran yang lain lagi di Gat ada seorang raksasa yang mempunyai enam jari pada setiap tangan dan setiap kakinya. Ia keturunan raksasa zaman dahulu.
There was another battle also in Geth, in which there was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes were four and twenty, six on each hand and foot: who also was born of the stock of Rapha.
7 Ia mengejek orang Israel, dan karena itu ia dibunuh oleh Yonatan, anak Simea abang Daud.
He reviled Israel: but Jonathan the son of Samaa the brother of David slew him.
8 Ketiga orang yang dibunuh oleh Daud dan pasukannya itu adalah keturunan raksasa di Gat.
These were the sons of Rapha in Geth, who fell by the hand of David and his servants.
