CHAP. XX. Rabba is taken: Other victories over the Philistines.


1   And it came to pass after the course of a year, at the time that kings go out to battel, Joab gathered together an army and the strength of the troops and wasted the land of the children of Ammon: and went and besieged Rabba. But David staid at Jerusalem, when Joab smote Rabba, and destroyed it.


2   And David took the crown of Melchom from his head, and found in it a talent weight of gold, and most precious stones and he made himself a diademe of it: he took also the spoils of the city which were very great.


3   And the people that were therein he brought out: and made harrows, and sleads, and chariots of iron to go over them, so that they were cut and bruised to pieces: In this manner David dealt with all the cities of the children of Ammon: and he returned with all his people to Jerusalem.


4   After this there arose a war at Gazer against the Philistines: in which Sabachai the Husathite slew Saphai of the race of the Raphaim, and humbled them.


5   Another battle also was fought against the Philistines in which Adeodatus the son of Saltus a Bethlehemite slew the brother of Goliath the Gethite, the staff of whose spear was like a weavers beam.


6   There was another battle

also in Geth, in which there was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes were four and twenty, six on each hand and foot: who also was born of the stock of Rapha.


7   He reviled Israel: but Jonathan the son of Samaa the brother of David slew him. These were the sons of Rapha in Geth, who fell by the hand of David and his servants.
