< 1 Књига дневника 20 >
1 А кад прође година, у време кад цареви иду на војску, Јоав изведе војску, па потираше земљу синова Амонових, и дошавши опколи Раву; а Давид беше остао у Јерусалиму. И Јоав освоји Раву и раскопа је.
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 И Давид узе цару њиховом с главе круну, и нађе да потеже таланат злата, и драго камење беше у њој; и метнуше је на главу Давиду, и однеше из града плен врло велик.
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 А народ што беше у њему изведе и исече их пилама и гвозденим бранама и секирама. И тако учини Давид свим градовима синова Амонових. Потом се врати Давид са свим народом у Јерусалим.
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 А после тога наста рат у Гезеру у Филистејима; тада Сивехај Хусаћанин уби Сифаја који беше рода дивовског, и бише покорени.
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 Наста опет рат с Филистејима, у коме Елханан, син Јаиров уби Ламију, брата Голијата Гетејина, коме копљача беше као вратило.
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 И опет наста рат у Гату, где беше један човек врло висок, који имаше по седам прста, скупа двадесет и четири; и он беше рода дивовског.
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 И ружаше Израиља, те га уби Јонатан син Самаје брата Давидовог.
When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David’s brother, killed him.
8 Ти беху синови истог дива из Гата, и погибоше од руке Давидове и од руке слуга његових.
These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
