1 Krönikeboken 20
1 Och då året omgånget var, på den tid som Konungar utdraga, utförde Joab hären, och förderfvade Ammons barnas land; kom och belade Rabba; men David blef i Jerusalem. Och Joab slog Rabba, och bröt det neder.
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 Och David tog deras Konungs krono af hans hufvud, och fann deruti en centener gulds vigt och ädla stenar; och hon vardt satt på Davids hufvud; förde han ock ganska mycket rof utu staden.
And David took the crown of Malcam 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 Men folket derinne förde han ut, och lät sönderdela dem med sågar och jernhackor och kilar; alltså gjorde David alla Ammons barnas städer. Och David drog med folkena till Jerusalem igen.
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 Derefter hof sig en strid upp i Gaser med de Philisteer. På den tiden slog Sibbechai, den Husathiten, Sippai, den utaf Rephaims barnom var, och undertryckte honom.
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 giants; and they were subdued.
5 Och det hof sig ännu en strid upp med de Philisteer. Då slog Elhanan, Jairs son, Lahmi, Goliaths broder den Gitthiten, hvilkens spjutskaft var såsom ett väfträ.
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 Åter vardt en strid i Gath. Der var en stor man, han hade sex finger och sex tår, det gör fyra och tjugu. Han var också födder af Rapha.
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 Han bespottade Israel; men Jonathan, Simea son, Davids broders, slog honom.
And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.
8 Desse voro födde af Rapha i Gath, och föllo genom Davids och hans tjenares hand.
These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
