1 Chronicles 20
1 It happened, at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out, that Joab led forth the army, and wasted the country of the people of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. Joab struck 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 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 on David's head: and he brought forth the spoil of the city, a very great amount.
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 He brought forth the people who were in it, and set them to work with saws, and with iron picks, and with axes. David did so to all the cities of the people of Ammon. 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 Now it happened afterward that there was again war with the Philistines at Gezer; then Sibbekai the Hushathite killed Sippai, a descendant of the Rephaim; 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 There was again war with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair the Bethlehemite killed 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 There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, whose fingers and toes were twenty-four, six on each hand, and six on each foot; and he also was descended from the Raphah.
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 When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimeah David's brother killed him.
buu Israel animtiaa, twitwaa mpoa. Na Dawid nuabarima Simea babarima Yonatan kum no.
8 These were the descendants of the Raphah 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.
