1 Makoronike 20
1 Munguva yechirimo, panguva iyo madzimambo anoenda kuhondo, Joabhu, akatungamirira mauto akashonga zvombo zvokurwa. Akaparadza nyika yavaAmoni akaenda kuRabha akandorikomba, asi Dhavhidhi akasara muJerusarema. Joabhu akarwisa Rabha akarisiya raparara.
And when the yere was expired, in the time that Kings goe out a warfare, Ioab caryed out the strength of the armie, and destroyed the countrey of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah (but Dauid taryed at Ierusalem) and Ioab smote Rabbah and destroyed it.
2 Dhavhidhi akatora korona kubva pamusoro wamambo wavo, uremu hwayo hwakaonekwa kuti hwaiva tarenda regoridhe uye yakanga ina mabwe anokosha uye yakaiswa pamusoro paDhavhidhi. Akapamba zvinhu zvizhinji kwazvo muguta iri
Then Dauid tooke the crowne of their King from off his head, and founde it the weight of a talent of golde, with precious stones in it: and it was set on Dauids head, and he brought away the spoyle of the citie exceeding much.
3 uye akabudisa vanhu vakanga varimo, akavatongera kuti vashande namajeko namapiki namatemo. Dhavhidhi akaita saizvozvi kumaguta ose avaAmoni. Ipapo Dhavhidhi nehondo yake yose akadzokera kuJerusarema.
And he caryed away the people that were in it, and cut them with sawes, and with harowes of yron, and with axes: euen thus did Dauid with all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then Dauid and all the people came againe to Ierusalem.
4 Nokufamba kwenguva, hondo yakatanga navaFiristia paGezeri. Panguva iyoyi Sibhekai muHushati akauraya Sipai, mumwe wezvizvarwa zvavaRefa, vaFiristia vakakundwa.
And after this also there arose warre at Gezer with the Philistims: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slewe Sippai, of the children of Haraphah, and they were subdued.
5 Mune kumwe kurwisana navaFiristia, Erihanani mwanakomana waJairi akauraya Rami mununʼuna waGoriati muGiti, aiva nepfumo raiva nomubato wakafanana nedanda romuruki.
And there was yet another battell with the Philistims: and Elhanan the sonne of Iair slewe Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spearestaffe was like a weauers beame.
6 Mune kumwe kurwisana zvakare, kwakaitika paGati paiva nomumwe murume mukuru kwazvo aiva neminwe mitanhatu muruoko rumwe norumwe nezvigunwe zvitanhatu kugumbo rimwe nerimwe, zvose pamwe chete zvaiva makumi maviri nezvina. Aivawo worudzi rwaRafa.
And yet againe there was a battel at Gath, where was a man of a great stature, and his fingers were by sixes, euen foure and twentie, and was also the sonne of Haraphah.
7 Paakatuka Israeri, Jonatani mwanakomana waShimea, mununʼuna waDhavhidhi akamuuraya.
And when he reuiled Israel, Iehonathan the sonne of Shimea Dauids brother did slay him.
8 Izvi ndizvo zvizvarwa zvaRafa muGati, uye vakaurayiwa naDhavhidhi navanhu vake.
These were borne vnto Haraphah at Gath, and fell by the hand of Dauid: and by the hands of his seruants.
