1 Chronicles 20 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

1Ch 20:1It happened, at the time of the return of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that Yo'av led forth the army, and wasted the country of the children of `Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Yerushalayim. Yo'av struck Rabbah, and overthrew it.
1Ch 20:2David 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, exceeding much.
1Ch 20:3He brought forth the people who were therein, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Thus did David to all the cities of the children of `Ammon. David and all the people returned to Yerushalayim.
1Ch 20:4It happened after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Pelishtim: then Sibbekhai the Hushatite killed Sippai, of the sons of the Rafa; and they were subdued.
1Ch 20:5There was again war with the Pelishtim; and Elchanan the son of Ya'ir killed Lachmi the brother of Golyat the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
1Ch 20:6There was again war at Gat, where 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 born to the Rafa.
1Ch 20:7When he defied Yisra'el, Yonatan the son of Shim`a David's brother killed him.
1Ch 20:8These were born to the Rafa in Gat; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
