¹And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab led forth the power of 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 destroyed it.

¹Huan hichi ahi a, kum a hongbeia kumpipate kidou dinga a kuankhiak sek lai un, Joabin sepaih ahatahat a pi khiaa. Amon suante gam a suhsaka, Raba khua a um uh. David bel Jerusalem ah a om. Huan Joabin Raba khua a suala, a lata hi.

²And 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 also exceeding much spoil out of the city.

²Huan Davidin a kumpipa uh lallukhu khuk lai a laksaka, a gikdan dangkaeng talent khat ahi, suangmantamte leng a tela; huan, David a khusak ua; huan, khopi-a om gallak sum tampi a la hi.

³And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

³Huan huailaia mipite bel a pi khiaa, singatnate, lei lehna sik zumte, heipitein na a semsaka. Huchibangin Amon tate khopi tengtengte Davidin a hih hi, Huan David leh mi tengteng Jerusalem ah a pai nawnta uhi.

⁴And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Gezer with the Philistines; at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Sippai, that was of the children of the giant: and they were subdued.

⁴Huan hichi ahi a, huainungin, Philistia mite toh Gezer ah kidouna a oma; huchiin Husat mi Sibekaiin milian suante laka mi Sippai a thata; huan, a vuallelta uhi.

⁵And there was war again with the Philistines; and Elhanan the son of Jair slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, whose spear staff was like a weaver's beam.

⁵Huan Philistia mite toh kidouna a om nawna; huan Jair tapa Elhanin Git mi Goliath unaupa Lahmi a thata, a tei kung chiampek bang ahi.

⁶And yet again there was 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 the son of the giant.

⁶Huan Gath khua ah kidouna a om nawna, huaiah mi sang mahmah, a khut khatlam khatlama khutzung guk, a khe khatlam khatlama khezung guk, a veka sawmnih leh li nei a oma; amah leng milian laka piang ahi.

⁷But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him.

⁷Huan aman Israel mite a simmoha, David unau Sime tapa Jonathanin a nathat hi.Huaite Gath khuaa milian laka piang ahi uh; huaite David leh a mite khut ah a si uhi.

⁸These were born unto the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.

⁸Huaite Gath khuaa milian laka piang ahi uh; huaite David leh a mite khut ah a si uhi.
