This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
20 Then, in the spring, when kings often march out to war, Yoav (Joab) led the army out for war, and he devastated the Amonim’ land. Then he reached the capital, Rabah, and he besieged it while David stayed in Yerushalem (Jerusalem).[ref] Yoav defeated Rabah and demolished the city. 2 Then David took their king’s crown off his head—it was gold with a valuable gemstone set in it, and weighed thirty kilograms. He put the crown on his own head, plus he took a very large amount of plunder out of the city. 3 Then they took all the people out of the city and forced them to work with saws, iron picks, and axes. David did that to the people from all the Amoni cities, then he returned to Yerushalem with his army.
4 Some time later, war broke out with the Pelishtim at Gezer, then Sibkay the Hushati struck down Sipay, from the descendants of the Refaim, and they were subdued.
5 Then there was another battle with the Pelishtim, and Yair’s son Elhanan killed Lahmi the brother of Galyat (Goliath)[ref] the Giti (that is, from Gat), even though his spear shaft was as thick as the beam of a weaver’s loom. 6 There was also war at Gat, where there was a very tall man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, who was also a descendant of Rafa. 7 When he insulted Yisrael (Israel), Shimea’s son Yonatan (Jonathan) killed him. (Shimea was one of David’s older brothers.)
8 Those were the descendants of Rafa from Gat who were killed by David and his men.
