factum est autem post anni circulum eo tempore quo solent reges ad bella procedere congregavit Ioab exercitum et robur militiae et vastavit terram filiorum Ammon perrexitque et obsedit Rabba porro David manebat in Hierusalem quando Ioab percussit Rabba et destruxit eam
And it came to pass after the course of a year, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab gathered together an army and the strength of the troops, and wasted the land of the children of Ammon: and went and besieged Rabba. But David stayed at Jerusalem, when Joab smote Rabba, and destroyed it.

populum autem qui erat in ea eduxit et fecit super eos tribulas et trahas et ferrata carpenta transire ita ut dissicarentur et contererentur sic fecit David cunctis urbibus filiorum Ammon et reversus est cum omni populo suo in Hierusalem
And the people that were therein he brought out: and made harrows, and sleds, and chariots of iron to go over them, so that they were cut and bruised to pieces: in this manner David dealt with all the cities of the children of Ammon: and he returned with all his people to Jerusalem.
