1 Seenaa 20
1 Birraa keessa yeroo mootonni waraanaaf baʼanitti Yooʼaab humnoota waraanaa qajeelchee biyya Amoonotaa barbadeesse; ergasiis dhaqee Rabbaa marse; Daawit garuu Yerusaalemitti hafe. Yooʼaabis Raabbaa waraanee daaraa ishee godhe.
And it came to pass, at the time of the return of the same season of the year, at the time when kings go forth, that Joab led out the power of the army, and destroyed the country of the children of 'Ammon, and he came and besieged Rabbah. But David remained behind at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and pulled it down.
2 Daawitis mataa mootii isaanii irraa gonfoo fudhate; gonfoon sun hamma warqee taalaantii tokkoo ulfaatee dhagaawwan gati jabeeyyiis of irraa qaba ture; gonfichis mataa Daawit irra kaaʼame. Innis magaalaa sana keessaa boojuu akka malee baayʼee fudhatee
And David took the crown of Malkam from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and thereon a precious stone; and it was set on the head of David: and the booty of the city he brought out in great abundance.
3 namoota achi keessa turanis gad yaasee akka isaan magaaziidhaan, gasoo sibiilaatii fi qottoodhaan hojii hojjetan godhe. Daawit magaalaawwan Amoonotaa hunda keessattis akkasuma godhe. Ergasii Daawitii fi loltoonni isaa hundinuu Yerusaalemitti ni deebiʼan.
And the people that were therein he brought forward, and cut them with saws, and with iron threshing-wagons, and with axes; and thus did David unto all the cities of the children of 'Ammon; and David returned then with all the people unto Jerusalem.
4 Ergasii immoo lafa Geezir jedhamutti Filisxeemota wajjin waraanni baname. Yeroo sanattis Siibekaay namichi biyya Hushaa sun Siifaay namicha gosa tokko Refaayin ajjeese; Filisxeemonnis ni bulaniif.
And it came to pass after this, that there arose a battle at Gezer with the Philistines: then smote Sibbechai the Chushathite Sippai, one of the children of the Rapha; and they were humbled.
5 Waraana biraa kan Filisxeemota wajjin godhame keessatti immoo Elhaanaan ilmi Yaaʼiir sun Lahemii obboleessa Gooliyaad namicha Gitii kan somaan eeboo isaa loosaa wayya dhooftuu gaʼu qabu sanaa ni ajjeese.
And there was again a battle with the Philistines, when Elchanan the son of Yair smote Lachmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
6 Ammas waraana Gaatitti godhame kan biraa keessatti namicha hamma wayii gaʼu kan tokkoo tokkoo harka isaa irraa quboota jaʼa jaʼa akkasumas tokkoo tokkoo miilla isaa irraa quboota jaʼa jaʼa walumatti quboota digdamii afur qabu tokkotu ture. Innis sanyii Raafaa keessaa dhalate.
And there was again a battle at Gath, where was a man of [great] stature, whose fingers and toes were six on each [hand and foot], four and twenty [in all]; and he also was born to the Rapha.
7 Yommuu inni Israaʼelin tuttuqettis Yoonaataan ilmi Shimeʼaa obboleessi Daawit isa ajjeese.
And he defied Israel; but Jonathan the son of Shim'a the brother of David smote him.
8 Isaan kunneen sanyiiwwan Raafaa warra Gaati keessa turanii dha; isaanis harka Daawitii fi harka namoota isaatiin dhuman.
These were born unto the Rapha in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
