1	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. [after...: Heb. at the return of the year]
			2	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. [to weigh: Heb. the weight of]
			3	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.
			4	And 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# . [arose: or, continued: Heb. stood] [Gezer: also called, Gob] [Sippai: also called, Saph] [the giant: or, Rapha]
			5	And 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. [Jair: also called, Jaareoregim]
			6	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 also was the son# of the giant. [great...: Heb. measure] [the son...: Heb. born to the giant, or, Rapha]
			7	But when he defied# Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew# him. [defied: or, reproached] [Shimea: also called Shammah]
			8	These were born# unto the giant in Gath; and they fell# by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
