20 Mu ntangiriro z’umwaka, ni ukuvuga igihe abami bajyaga ku rugamba, Yowabu+ yajyanye ingabo ku rugamba maze asenya igihugu cy’Abamoni. Yaraje agota Raba,+ ariko Dawidi we yigumira i Yerusalemu.+ Nuko Yowabu atera Raba arayisenya.+
2 Dawidi akura ikamba ku mutwe w’ikigirwamana cyitwa Malikamu. Iryo kamba ryapimaga ibiro 34* bya zahabu kandi ryari ririho amabuye y’agaciro menshi, rishyirwa ku mutwe wa Dawidi. Nanone yafashe ibintu byinshi cyane byari muri uwo mujyi.+
3 Abantu bari muri uwo mujyi bose yabakuyemo, abajyana gukora imirimo+ yo guconga amabuye, gukoresha ibikoresho by’ibyuma bityaye n’amashoka. Uko ni ko Dawidi yagenje imijyi yose y’Abamoni. Hanyuma Dawidi n’ingabo zose basubira i Yerusalemu.
4 Nyuma y’ibyo Abafilisitiya bagabye igitero i Gezeri. Icyo gihe ni bwo Sibekayi+ w’i Husha yishe Sipayi ukomoka ku Barefayimu,+ nuko agira Abafilisitiya abagaragu be.

6 Hari indi ntambara yabereye i Gati.+ Icyo gihe hari umugabo wari munini bidasanzwe,+ wari ufite intoki 6 kuri buri kiganza n’amano 6 kuri buri kirenge, byose hamwe ari 24. Na we yakomokaga mu Barefayimu.+
7 Yakomeje gutuka+ Abisirayeli, nuko Yonatani umuhungu wa Shimeya+ umuvandimwe wa Dawidi aramwica.
