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 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 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 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 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 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 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.
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 Dalam pertempuran lain melawan orang Filistin, Elhanan anak Yair membunuh Lahmi saudara Goliat orang Gat. Gagang tombak Lahmi itu sebesar kayu alat tenun.
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 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.
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 Ia mengejek orang Israel, dan karena itu ia dibunuh oleh Yonatan, anak Simea abang Daud.
And he defied Israel, and Jonathan the son of Samaa the brother of David killed him.
8 Ketiga orang yang dibunuh oleh Daud dan pasukannya itu adalah keturunan raksasa di Gat.
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.
