26 E Joabe lutava contra Rabá dos filhos de Amom, e tomou a cidade real.

27 Então enviou Joabe mensageiros a Davi, dizendo: Eu lutei contra Rabá, e tomei a cidade das águas.

28 Junta, pois, agora o povo que resta, e assenta acampamento contra a cidade, e toma-a; porque tomando eu a cidade, não se chame de meu nome.

29 E juntando Davi todo aquele povo foi contra Rabá, e combateu-a, e tomou-a.

30 E tomou a coroa de seu rei de sua cabeça, a qual pesava um talento de ouro, e tinha pedras preciosas; e foi posta sobre a cabeça de Davi. E trouxe muito grande despojo da cidade.
