 aThen it happenedh1961  1in the springh8666, at the timeh6256 when kingsh4428 goh3318 out to battle, that Joabh3097 ledh5090a out the armyh6635h2428 and ravagedh7843 the landh776 of the sonsh1121 of Ammonh5983, and cameh935 and besiegedh6696a Rabbahh7237. But Davidh1732 stayedh3427 at Jerusalemh3389. And  bJoabh3097 struckh5221 Rabbahh7237 and overthrewh2040 it.

 aDavidh1732 tookh3947 the crownh5850 of  1their kingh4428 from his headh7218, and he foundh4672 it to weighh4948 a talenth3603 of goldh2091, and there was a precioush3368 stoneh68 in it; and it was placedh1961 on David'sh1732 headh7218. And he broughth3318 out the spoilh7998 of the cityh5892b, a veryh3966 greath7235a amount.

He broughth3318 out the peopleh5971a whoh834 were in it,  aand cuth7787 them with sawsh4050 and with sharph2757 instrumentsh2757 and with axesh4050. And thush3651 Davidh1732 didh6213a to allh3605 the citiesh5892b of the sonsh1121 of Ammonh5983. Then Davidh1732 and allh3605 the peopleh5971a returnedh7725 to Jerusalemh3389.

 aNow it cameh1961 about afterh310 thish3651, that warh4421  1brokeh5975 out at  2Gezerh1507 with the Philistinesh6430; thenh227 Sibbecaih5444 the Hushathiteh2843  3killedh5221 Sippaih5598, one of the descendantsh3211 of the  4giantsh7498b, and they were subduedh3665.

5

And there was warh4421 with the Philistinesh6430 againh5750, and Elhananh445 the sonh1121 of  aJairh3265  1killedh5221 Lahmih3902 the brotherh251 of Goliathh1555 the Gittiteh1663, the  bshafth6086 of whose spearh2595 was like a weaver'sh707 beamh4500.

6

Againh5750 there was warh4421 at Gathh1661, where there was a manh376 of great statureh4060a who had twenty-fourh6242h702 fingersh676 and toesh676, sixh8337a fingers on each hand and sixh8337a toes on each foot; and he alsoh1571 was descendedh3205 from the giantsh7498b.

When he tauntedh2778a Israelh3478, Jonathanh3083 the sonh1121 of Shimeah8092, David'sh1732 brotherh251,  1killedh5221 him.

Theseh411 were descendedh3205 from the giantsh7498b in Gathh1661, and they fellh5307 by the handh3027 of Davidh1732 and by the handh3027 of his servantsh5650.
