And it happened in the following year, at the going out of the kings, that Joab led all the force of the army and ravaged the land of the sons of Ammon, and he came and besieged Rabbah, but David was sitting in Jerusalem; and Joab struck Rabbah and tore it down.
And David took the crown of Malchol their king from his head, and its weight was found to be a talent of gold, and in it was a precious stone; and it was on David’s head, and he brought out very many spoils of the city.
And he brought out the people who were in it and cut them with saws and with iron axes; and thus David did to all the sons of Ammon. And David and all his people returned to Jerusalem.
And after these things there was again war in Gazer with the Philistines; then Sobochai the Hushathite struck Saphu, one of the sons of the giants, and humbled him.
And there was again war with the Philistines, and Elhanan son of Jair struck Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, and the shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s beam
And there was still war in Gath, and there was a man of extraordinary size, and his fingers were six and six, twenty-four, and this one was a descendant of giants.
