SAGRADA BIBLIAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 No ano seguinte, no tempo em que os reis costumavam ir para a guerra, Joab, à frente de um poderoso exército, devastou a terra dos amonitas e veio sitiar Raba. Joab conquistou Raba e a destruiu.1 And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.
2 Davi tomou a coroa da cabeça de seu rei, a qual pesava um talento de ouro. Estava ornada com uma pedra preciosa; e ela foi colocada na cabeça de Davi. Levou também da cidade muitos despojos.2 And David took the crown of their king from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious stones in it; and it was set upon David's head: and he brought also exceeding much spoil out of the city.
3 Quanto ao povo que lá se encontrava, fê-lo sair, e colocou-o em trabalhos de serra, de picaretas de ferro e de machados. Fez o mesmo com todas as cidades dos amonitas. Em seguida, Davi voltou para Jerusalém com todo o seu exército.3 And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
4 Depois disso, houve um combate em Gazer contra os filisteus. Então Sobocai, o husatita, matou Safai, um dos descendentes de Rafa, e os filisteus foram submetidos.4 And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines; at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Sippai, that was of the children of the giant: and they were subdued.
5 Houve ainda uma batalha com os filisteus; e Elcanã, filho de Jair, matou Lacmi, irmão de Golias, de Get, que tinha uma lança cujo cabo parecia um cilindro de tecelões.5 And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear staff was like a weaver's beam.
6 Houve ainda um combate em Get. Lá havia um homem de alta estatura que tinha seis dedos em cada mão e em cada pé, ao todo vinte e quatro; também ele era da descendência de Rafa.6 And yet again there was war at Gath, where was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes were four and twenty, six on each hand, and six on each foot: and he also was the son of the giant.
7 Desafiou Israel, e Jônatas, filho de Sama, irmão de Davi, o matou.7 But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.
8 Esses homens eram filhos de Rafa, em Get; pereceram pela mão de Davi e de seus servos.8 These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
