1 Chronicles 20
1 And it came to pass, at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out [to battle], that Joab led forth 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 overthrew it.
Asusow bere, afe mu bere a ahemfo kɔ ɔko no, Yoab dii Israel asraafo anim, kɔtow hyɛɛ Amonfo nkurow ne nkuraa so, dii wɔn so nkonim. Akodi no mu no, wotuaa Raba kuropɔn no, sɛee no. Saa bere no na Dawid te akyi wɔ Yerusalem.
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 forth the spoil of the city, exceeding much.
Bere a Dawid duu Raba no, otuu ɔhene no ahenkyɛw, na wɔde hyɛɛ Dawid. Sikakɔkɔɔ na wɔde yɛɛ ahenkyɛw no na wɔde aboɔdemmo abobɔ mu. Na emu duru bɛyɛ kilogram aduasa anan. Dawid faa asade bebree fii kurow no mu.
3 And he brought forth the people that were therein, and cut [them] with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. And thus did David unto all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Ɔde Rabafo no yɛɛ nkoa, hyɛɛ wɔn ma wɔde ɔwan, famtunnade ne mmonnua yɛɛ adwuma. Saa ara nso na ɔyɛɛ nnipa a wɔwɔ Amon nkuropɔn nyinaa so. Na Dawid ne nʼakofo san kɔɔ Yerusalem.
4 And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines: then Sibbecai the Hushathite slew Sippai, of the sons of the giant; and they were subdued.
Eyi akyi, ɔko sii wɔne Filistifo ntam wɔ Geser. Ɔko no mu no, Sibekai a ofi Husa kum Sipai a ɔyɛ abran no aseni ma wɔkaa Filistifo no hyɛe.
5 And there was again war with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
Ɔko foforo bi a wɔne Filistifo koe no mu no, Yair babarima Elhanan kum Gatni Goliat nuabarima Lahmi. Na Lahmi peaw nsa mu pipiripi te sɛ ntamanwemfo abaa.
6 And there was again 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 born unto the giant.
Ɔko foforo bi nso a wɔne Filistifo koe wɔ Gat no, ɔbran bi a ɔyɛ abran asefo no bi a ɔyɛ nsansia yɛ nansia wɔ ne nsa ne ne nan biara so no
7 And when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David’s brother slew him.
buu Israel animtiaa, twitwaa mpoa. Na Dawid nuabarima Simea babarima Yonatan kum no.
8 These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
Na saa Filistifo yi yɛ Gat abran no asefo nanso Dawid ne nʼakofo kunkum wɔn.
