STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCHNEW JERUSALEM
1 וַיְהִי לְעֵת תְּשׁוּבַת הַשָּׁנָה לְעֵת ׀ צֵאת הַמְּלָכִים וַיִּנְהַג יֹואָב אֶת־חֵיל הַצָּבָא וַיַּשְׁחֵת ׀ אֶת־אֶרֶץ בְּנֵי־עַמֹּון וַיָּבֹא וַיָּצַר אֶת־רַבָּה וְדָוִיד יֹשֵׁב בִּירוּשָׁלִָם וַיַּךְ יֹואָב אֶת־רַבָּה וַיֶּהֶרְסֶהָ1 At the turn of the year, at the time when kings go campaigning, Joab led out the troops and, havingravaged the Ammonites' territory, proceeded to lay siege to Rabbah. David, however, remained in Jerusalem.Joab reduced Rabbah and dismantled it.
2 וַיִּקַּח דָּוִיד אֶת־עֲטֶרֶת־מַלְכָּם מֵעַל רֹאשֹׁו וַיִּמְצָאָהּ ׀ מִשְׁקַל כִּכַּר־זָהָב וּבָהּ אֶבֶן יְקָרָה וַתְּהִי עַל־רֹאשׁ דָּוִיד וּשְׁלַל הָעִיר הֹוצִיא הַרְבֵּה מְאֹד2 David took the crown off Milcom's head and found that it weighed a talent of gold, and in it was set aprecious stone which went on David's head instead. He carried off great quantities of booty from the city.
3 וְאֶת־הָעָם אֲשֶׁר־בָּהּ הֹוצִיא וַיָּשַׂר בַּמְּגֵרָה וּבַחֲרִיצֵי הַבַּרְזֶל וּבַמְּגֵרֹות וְכֵן יַעֲשֶׂה דָוִיד לְכֹל עָרֵי בְנֵי־עַמֹּון וַיָּשָׁב דָּוִיד וְכָל־הָעָם יְרוּשָׁלִָם׃ פ3 And he expel ed its inhabitants, setting them to work with saws, iron picks and axes. David treated althe Ammonite towns in the same way. David and al the people then returned to Jerusalem.
4 וַיְהִי אַחֲרֵיכֵן וַתַּעֲמֹד מִלְחָמָה בְּגֶזֶר עִם־פְּלִשְׁתִּים אָז הִכָּה סִבְּכַי הַחֻשָׁתִי אֶת־סִפַּי מִילִדֵי הָרְפָאִים וַיִּכָּנֵעוּ4 After this war broke out with the Philistines at Gezer. This was when Sibbecai of Hushah kil ed Sippai, one of the Rephaim, and the Philistines were subdued.
5 וַתְּהִי־עֹוד מִלְחָמָה אֶת־פְּלִשְׁתִּים וַיַּךְ אֶלְחָנָן בֶּן־ [יָעוּר כ] (יָעִיר ק) אֶת־לַחְמִי אֲחִי גָּלְיָת הַגִּתִּי וְעֵץ חֲנִיתֹו כִּמְנֹור אֹרְגִים5 Again, war with the Philistines broke out, and Elhanan son of Jair kil ed Lahmi brother of Goliath ofGath, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
6 וַתְּהִי־עֹוד מִלְחָמָה בְּגַת וַיְהִי ׀ אִישׁ מִדָּה וְאֶצְבְּעֹתָיו שֵׁשׁ־וָשֵׁשׁ עֶשְׂרִים וְאַרְבַּע וְגַם־הוּא נֹולַד לְהָרָפָא6 There was further warfare at Gath, where there was a man of huge stature with six fingers on eachhand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in al . He too was a son of Rapha.
7 וַיְחָרֵף אֶת־יִשְׂרָאֵל וַיַּכֵּהוּ יְהֹונָתָן בֶּן־שִׁמְעָא אֲחִי דָוִיד7 When he defied Israel, Jonathan son of Shimea, brother of David cut him down.
8 אֵל נוּלְּדוּ לְהָרָפָא בְּגַת וַיִּפְּלוּ בְיַד־דָּוִיד וּבְיַד־עֲבָדָיו׃ פ8 These men were sons of Rapha in Gath and fel at the hands of David and his guards.
