1And 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 wasted the country
of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David
tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.
2And 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 he brought also exceeding much spoil out of the
city.
3And he brought out the people that were
in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of
iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of
the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to
Jerusalem.
4And it came to pass after this, that
there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines; at which time
Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Sippai, that was of the
children of the giant: and they were subdued.
5And 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.
6And yet again there was 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 the son of the giant.
7But when he defied Israel, Jonathan
the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.
8These were born unto the giant in
Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his
servants.
