1
Factum est autem post anni circulum, eo tempore, quo solent reges ad bella procedere, congregavit Ioab exercitum, et robur militiæ, et vastavit terram filiorum Ammon; perrexitque et obsedit Rabba: porro David manebat in Ierusalem quando Ioab percussit Rabba, et destruxit eam.
2
Tulit autem David coronam Melchom de capite eius, et invenit in ea auri pondo talentum, et pretiosissimas gemmas, fecitque sibi inde diadema: manubias quoque urbis plurimas tulit:
3
populum autem, qui erat in ea, eduxit: et fecit super eos tribulas, et trahas, et ferrata carpenta transire, ita ut dissecarentur, et contererentur: sic fecit David cunctis urbibus filiorum Ammon: et reversus est cum omni populo suo in Ierusalem.
4

7
Hic blasphemavit Israel: et percussit eum Ionathan filius Samaa fratris David. Hi sunt filii Rapha in Geth, qui ceciderunt in manu David et servorum eius.
