1 Tantara 20
1 Ary rehefa niherina ny taona, ka mby amin’ ny andro fandehanan’ ny mpanjaka hiady, dia nitondra ny miaramila rehetra Joaba ka nandrava ny tanin’ ny taranak’ i Amona, dia tonga izy ka nanao fahirano an’ i Raba; fa Davida kosa nijanona tany Jerosalema ihany. Ary Joaba nahafaka an’ i Raba, ka dia nandrava azy.
And it came to pass, at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out [to battle], that Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and overthrew it.
2 Dia nesorin’ i Davida ny satro-boninahitr’ ilay mpanjaka teo an-dohany, ka hitany fa talenta volamena iray no lanjany, sady nisy vato soa, ary dia nisatrohan’ i Davida. Ary navoakany ny babo azo tao an-tanàna ka be dia be.
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, exceeding much.
3 Ary dia navoakany koa ny olona izay tao, ka nasiany tamin’ ny tsofa sy tamin’ ny fangao-by lehibe sy ny famaky; toy izany no nataon’ i Davida tamin’ ny tanànan’ ny taranak’ i Amona rehetra. Ary Davida sy ny vahoaka rehetra dia niverina nankany Jerosalema.
And he brought forth the people that were therein, and cut [them] with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. And thus did David unto all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
4 Ary nony afaka izany, dia nisy ady tamin’ ny Filistina tao Gazera; tamin’ izany no namonoan’ i Sibekay Hosatita an’ i Sipay, izay isan’ ny taranaky ny Refaïta, ka dia naetriny ny Filistina.
And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines: then Sibbecai the Hushathite slew Sippai, of the sons of the giant: and they were subdued.
5 Ary dia nisy ady tamin’ ny Filistina indray ary Elanana, zanak’ i Jaïra, namono an’ i Lamy, rahalahin’ i Goliata Gatita, izay nanan-jaran-defona tahaka ny vodi-tenon’ ny mpanenona.
And there was again war with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
6 Ary nisy ady indray tao Gata; ary tao nisy lehilahy vaventibe izay enin-drantsana, ka dia efatra amby roa-polo no isan’ ny rantsan-tànany sy ny rantsan-tongony; ary izy koa mba isan’ ny taranaky ny Refaïta.
And there was again war at Gath, where was a man 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 unto the giant.
7 Ary nony nihaika ny Isiraely izy, dia nahafaty azy Jonatana, zanak’ i Simea, rahalahin’ i Davida.
And when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David’s brother slew him.
8 Ireo no taranaky ny Refaïta tao Gata, ka matin’ ny tànan’ i Davida sy ny tanan’ ny mpanompony ireo.
These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
