And it came to pass, that after{H6256} the year{H8141} was expired{H8666}, at the time{H6256} that kings{H4428} go out{H3318}{(H8800)} to battle, Joab{H3097} led forth{H5090}{(H8799)} the power{H2428} of the army{H6635}, and wasted{H7843}{(H8686)} the country{H776} of the children{H1121} of Ammon{H5983}, and came{H935}{(H8799)} and besieged{H6696}{(H8799)} Rabbah{H7237}. But David{H1732} tarried{H3427}{(H8802)} at Jerusalem{H3389}. And Joab{H3097} smote{H5221}{(H8686)} Rabbah{H7237}, and destroyed{H2040}{(H8799)} it.

And David{H1732} took{H3947}{(H8799)} the crown{H5850} of their king{H4428} from off his head{H7218}, and found{H4672}{(H8799)} it to weigh{H4948} a talent{H3603} of gold{H2091}, and there were precious{H3368} stones{H68} in it; and it was set upon David's{H1732} head{H7218}: and he brought{H3318}{(H8689)} also exceeding{H3966} much{H7235}{(H8687)} spoil{H7998} out of the city{H5892}.

And he brought out{H3318}{(H8689)} the people{H5971} that were in it, and cut{H7787}{(H8799)} them with saws{H4050}, and with harrows{H2757} of iron{H1270}, and with axes{H4050}. Even so dealt{H6213}{(H8799)} David{H1732} with all the cities{H5892} of the children{H1121} of Ammon{H5983}. And David{H1732} and all the people{H5971} returned{H7725}{(H8799)} to Jerusalem{H3389}.

And it came to pass after this{H310}, that there arose{H5975}{(H8799)} war{H4421} at Gezer{H1507} with the Philistines{H6430}; at which time{H227} Sibbechai{H5444} the Hushathite{H2843} slew{H5221}{(H8689)} Sippai{H5598}, that was of the children{H3211} of the giant{H7497}: and they were subdued{H3665}{(H8735)}.

And there was war{H4421} again with the Philistines{H6430}; and Elhanan{H445} the son{H1121} of Jair{H3265} slew{H5221}{(H8686)} Lahmi{H3902} the brother{H251} of Goliath{H1555} the Gittite{H1663}, whose spear{H2595} staff{H6086} was like a weaver's{H707}{(H8802)} beam{H4500}.

And yet again there was war{H4421} at Gath{H1661}, where was a man{H376} of great stature{H4060}, whose fingers{H676} and toes{H676} were four{H702} and twenty{H6242}, six{H8337} on each hand, and six{H8337} on each foot: and he also was the son{H3205}{(H8738)} of the giant{H7497}.

But when he defied{H2778}{(H8762)} Israel{H3478}, Jonathan{H3083} the son{H1121} of Shimea{H8092} David's{H1732} brother{H251} slew{H5221}{(H8686)} him.

These{H411} were born{H3205}{(H8738)} unto the giant{H7497} in Gath{H1661}; and they fell{H5307}{(H8799)} by the hand{H3027} of David{H1732}, and by the hand{H3027} of his servants{H5650}.
