I Livro das Crônicas 20

SAGRADA BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
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 Now it happened that, after the course of a year, in the time when kings usually go forth to war, Joab gathered an army with experienced soldiers, and he laid waste to the land of the sons of Ammon. And he continued on and besieged Rabbah. But David was staying in Jerusalem when Joab struck 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 Then David took the crown of Milcom from his head, and he found in it the weight of one talent of gold, and very precious gems. And he made for himself a diadem from it. Also, he took the best spoils of the city, which were very many.
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 Then he led away the people who were in it. And he caused plows, and sleds, and iron chariots to go over them, so much so that they were cut apart and crushed. So did David treat all the cities of the sons of Ammon. And he returned with all his people 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 After these things, a war was begun at Gezer against the Philistines, in which Sibbecai the Hushathite struck Sippai from the race of the Rephaim, and he humbled them.
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 Also, another war was undertaken against the Philistines, in which Adeodatus, a son of the forest, a Bethlehemite, struck the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the wood of whose spear 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 Then too, another war occurred in Gath, in which there was a very tall man, having six digits, that is, all together twenty-four. This man too was born from the stock of the Rephaim.
7 Desafiou Israel, e Jônatas, filho de Sama, irmão de Davi, o matou.	7 He blasphemed Israel. And Jonathan, the son of Shimea, the brother of David, struck him down. These were the sons of the Rephaim in Gath, who fell by the hand of David and his servants.
8 Esses homens eram filhos de Rafa, em Get; pereceram pela mão de Davi e de seus servos.
