1 Chronicles 20:3-5
New King James Version
3 And he brought out the people who were in it, and [a]put them to work with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. So David did to all the cities of the people of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Philistine Giants Destroyed(A)
4 Now it happened afterward (B)that war broke out at [b]Gezer with the Philistines, at which time (C)Sibbechai the Hushathite killed [c]Sippai, who was one of the sons of [d]the giant. And they were subdued.
5 Again there was war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of [e]Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s (D)beam.
