WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Εν δε τω ακολούθω έτει, καθ' ον καιρόν εκστρατεύουσιν οι βασιλείς, ο Ιωάβ εξεκίνησε πάσαν την δύναμιν του στρατεύματος και έφθειρε την γην των υιών Αμμών, και ελθών επολιόρκησε την Ραββά· ο δε Δαβίδ έμεινεν εν Ιερουσαλήμ. Και επάταξεν ο Ιωάβ την Ραββά και κατέστρεψεν αυτήν.
1 At the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out, Joab led out the army and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. Joab struck Rabbah, and overthrew it.
2 Και έλαβεν ο Δαβίδ τον στέφανον του βασιλέως αυτών από της κεφαλής αυτού· και ευρέθη το βάρος αυτού εν τάλαντον χρυσίου· και ήσαν επ' αυτού λίθοι πολύτιμοι και ετέθη επί την κεφαλής του Δαβίδ· και λάφυρα της πόλεως εξέφερε πολλά σφόδρα.
2 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. It was set on David’s head, and he brought very much plunder out of the city.
3 Και τον λαόν τον εν αυτή εξήγαγε, και έκοψεν αυτούς με πρίονας και με τριβόλους σιδηρούς και με πελέκεις. Και ούτως έκαμεν ο Δαβίδ εις πάσας τας πόλεις των υιών Αμμών. Τότε επέστρεψεν ο Δαβίδ και πας ο λαός εις Ιερουσαλήμ.
3 He brought out the people who were in it, and had them cut with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. David did so to all the cities of the children of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
4 Μετά δε ταύτα συνεκροτήθη πόλεμος εν Γεζέρ μετά των Φιλισταίων· τότε επάταξεν ο Σιββεχαΐ ο Χουσαθίτης τον Σιφφαΐ, εκ των τέκνων του Ραφά· και κατετροπώθησαν.
4 After this, war arose at Gezer with the Philistines. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Sippai, of the sons of the giant; and they were subdued.
5 Και πάλιν έγεινε πόλεμος μετά των Φιλισταίων· και επάταξεν ο Ελχανάν ο υιός του Ιαείρ τον Λααμεί, αδελφόν του Γολιάθ του Γετθαίου, και το ξύλον της λόγχης αυτού ήτο ως αντίον υφαντού.
5 Again there was war with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
6 Και πάλιν έγεινε πόλεμος εν Γαθ, όπου ήτο ανήρ υπερμεγέθης, και οι δάκτυλοι αυτού ήσαν εξ και εξ, εικοσιτέσσαρες, και ούτος έτι ήτο εκ της γενεάς του Ραφά.
6 There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six on each hand and six on each foot; and he also was born to the giant.
7 Και ωνείδισε τον Ισραήλ, και Ιωνάθαν ο υιός του Σαμαά, αδελφού του Δαβίδ, επάταξεν αυτόν.
7 When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David’s brother, killed him.
8 Ούτοι εγεννήθησαν εις τον Ραφά εν Γάθ· και έπεσον διά χειρός του Δαβίδ και διά χειρός των δούλων αυτού.
8 These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
