1 N a primavera seguinte, na época em que os reis saem à guerra, Joabe conduziu o seu exército até a terra dos amonitas e a arrasou. Enquanto Davi ainda estava em Jerusalém, Joabe cercou Rabá, a capital, atacou-a e deixou-a em ruínas.

¶ And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab led forth the power of the army and destroyed the country of the sons of Ammon and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah and destroyed it.

2 D avi tirou a coroa da cabeça de Moloque, uma coroa de ouro de trinta e cinco quilos, ornamentada com pedras preciosas. E ela foi colocada na cabeça de Davi. Ele trouxe uma grande quantidade de bens da cidade,

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 in addition to this he took exceeding much spoil out of the city.

3 e trouxe também os seus habitantes, designando-lhes trabalhos com serras, picaretas de ferro e machados. Davi fez assim com todas as cidades amonitas. Depois voltou com todo seu exército para Jerusalém. Guerras contra os Filisteus

And he brought out the people that were in it and dominated them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the sons of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

4 H ouve depois disso uma guerra contra os filisteus, em Gezer. Naquela época, Sibecai, de Husate, matou Sipai, um dos descendentes dos refains, e os filisteus foram subjugados.

¶ And it came to pass after this that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite, slew Sippai, of the lineage of the giant; and they were subdued.

5 N outra batalha contra os filisteus, Elanã, filho de Jair, matou Lami, irmão de Golias, de Gate, que possuía uma lança cuja haste parecia uma lançadeira de tecelão.

And there was war again with the Philistines, and Elhanan, the son of Jair, slew Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear staff was like a weaver’s beam.

6 N outra batalha, em Gate, havia um homem de grande estatura e que tinha seis dedos em cada mão e seis dedos em cada pé; vinte e quatro dedos ao todo. Ele também era descendente de Rafa,

And yet again there was 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 the son of the giant.

7 e desafiou Israel, mas Jônatas, filho de Siméia, irmão de Davi, o matou.

But when he dishonoured Israel, Jonathan, the son of Shimea, David’s brother slew him.

8 E sses eram descendentes de Rafa, em Gate, e foram mortos por Davi e seus soldados.

These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his slaves.
