28 rassemble maintenant le reste du peuple, campe contre la ville, et prends-la, de peur que je ne la prenne moi-même et que la gloire ne m’en soit attribuée.

29 David rassembla tout le peuple, et marcha sur Rabba; il l’attaqua, et s’en rendit maître.

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

31 Il fit sortir les habitants, et il les plaça sous des scies, des herses de fer et des haches de fer, et les fit passer par des fours à briques; il traita de même toutes les villes des fils d’Ammon. David retourna à Jérusalem avec tout le peuple.
