< 1 Chronicles 20 >

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.
Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ya kĩmera yakinya, ihinda rĩrĩa athamaki maathiiaga mbaara, Joabu agĩtongoria mbũtũ cia ita. Nake akĩananga bũrũri wa Aamoni, na agĩthiĩ Raba akĩrĩrigiicĩria, no Daudi agĩtigwo Jerusalemu. Joabu agĩtharĩkĩra Raba agĩtiga aarĩananga.
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.
Daudi akĩruta mũthamaki wao thũmbĩ mũtwe, nayo yarĩ na ũritũ wa taranda ĩmwe ya thahabu, na nĩyagemetio na tũhiga twa goro, nayo ĩkĩigĩrĩrwo mũtwe wa Daudi. Nake agĩtaha indo nyingĩ mũno kuuma itũũra rĩu inene,
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.
na akĩrutũrũra aikari akuo, akĩmahe wĩra wa gwatũra mbaũ na mĩthumeno, na kũruta wĩra na harũ cia igera na mathanwa. Ũguo nĩguo Daudi eekire matũũra mothe ma Amoni. Thuutha ũcio Daudi na mbũtũ ciake ciothe cia ita magĩcooka Jerusalemu.
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.
Mahinda macio-rĩ, gũkĩgĩa mbaara ya kũrũa na Afilisti kũu Gezeri. Hĩndĩ ĩyo Sibekai ũrĩa Mũhushathi akĩũraga Sipai, ũmwe wa njiaro cia Refai, nao Afilisti magĩtoorio biũ.
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.
Mbaara-inĩ ĩngĩ makĩrũa na Afilisti, nake Elihanani mũrũ wa Jairu akĩũraga Lahami mũrũ wa nyina na Goliathũ, ũrĩa Mũgiiti, ũrĩa warĩ na itimũ rĩarĩ na mũtĩ waiganaga ta mũtĩ wa mũtumi ngoora.
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.
Ningĩ mbaara-inĩ ĩngĩ ĩrĩa yarũĩirwo Gathu, kwarĩ na mũndũ mũnene mũno, warĩ na ciara ithathatũ o guoko, na ciara ithathatũ o kũgũrũ, ciothe ciarĩ ciara mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na inya. O nake aarĩ wa rũciaro rwa Rafa.
7 When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David’s brother, killed him.
Rĩrĩa aanyũrũririe andũ a Isiraeli, Jonathani mũrũ wa Shimea, mũrũ wa nyina na Daudi, akĩmũũraga.
8 These were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
Acio nĩo maarĩ a rũciaro rwa Rafa wa kũu Gathu, nao makĩũragwo nĩ Daudi na andũ ake.
