Chapter 20 And 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.
And 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.
And 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.
And it came to pass after this, that there arose war at Giza with the
Philistines, at which time Sibachai the Hushethite slew Sippai that was of the
children of the giant.
And they were subdued.
And there was war again with the Philistines.
And Elhanan the son of Jeor slew Lammai the brother of Goliath the Gittite,
whose spear-staff was like a weaver's beam.
And 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 was also the son of the giant.
But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David's brother,
slew him.
These were born unto the giant in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David,
and by the hand of his servants.
