1 Chronicles 20:2 in Context — 1 Chronicles 20

1 L’année suivante, au temps où les rois se mettaient en campagne, Joab, à la tête d’une forte armée, alla ravager le pays des fils d’Ammon et assiéger Rabba. Mais David resta à Jérusalem. Joab battit Rabba et la détruisit.

2 David enleva la couronne de dessus la tête de son roi, et la trouva du poids d’un talent d’or: elle était garnie de pierres précieuses. On la mit sur la tête de David, qui emporta de la ville un très grand butin.

3 Il fit sortir les habitants, et il les mit en pièces avec des scies, des herses de fer et des haches; il traita de même toutes les villes des fils d’Ammon. David retourna à Jérusalem avec tout le peuple.

4 Après cela, il y eut une bataille à Guézer avec les Philistins. Alors Sibbecaï, le Huschatite, tua Sippaï, l’un des enfants de Rapha. Et les Philistins furent humiliés.
