And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the time that kings go out to battle, Joab led forth the power of the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David tarried at Jerusalem. And Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.
Cuando llegó la primavera, el tiempo cuando los reyes suelen salir a la guerra, Joab dirigió el ejército y devastó la tierra de los amonitas. Vino y rodeó su ciudad capital, Rabá. Pero David se quedó en Jerusalén. Joab atacó Rabá y la destruyó completamente.
Mientras David permanecía en Jerusalén, Joab dirigió el ejército israelita y conquistó completamente la ciudad capital de los amonitas.
