Seeker Overlay ON
*
And it happened ,
at the time of the return of the year ,
at the time when kings go forth ,
that Joab led out the power of the army and wasted the country of the Ammonites and came and besieged Rabbah .
But David remained at Jerusalem .
And Joab struck Rabbah and overthrew it .
*
And David took the crown of their king from his head ,
and found it a talent of gold in weight ,
and a precious stone in it ;
and it was set on David '
s head .
And he also brought out the plunder of the city ,
a very great amount .
*
And he brought out the people in it ;
and they sawed with saws ,
and with sharp tools of iron ,
and with the axes .
And so David did to all the cities of the Ammonites .
And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem .
*
And it happened after this ,
that there stood a battle again with the Philistines in Gezer ;
then Sibbechai the Hushathite killed Sippai of the children of the giant ,
and they were humbled .
*
And there was a battle again with the Philistines ;
and Elhanan the son of Jair killed Lahmi ,
the brother of Goliath the Gittite the wood of whose spear was like the weavers '
beam .
*
And there was a battle again in Gath ;
and a man of stature was there ,
and his fingers and toes were six and six ,
twenty four ;
and also he had been born to the giant .
*
And he cursed Israel .
And Jonathan the son of Shimea ,
the brother of David ,
killed him .
*
These were born to the giant in Gath ,
and they fell by the hand of David ,
and by the hand of his servants .
