The army fights the Philistines
4 Some time after that, the Israelites fought a battle against the Philistines at Gezer. In that battle, Sibbecai from Hushah killed Sippai. Sippai was a descendant of Rapha. So Israel won against the Philistines.
20:4The descendants of Rapha were very big people.
5 In another battle against the Philistines, Jair's son Elhanan killed Lahmi. Lahmi was the brother of Goliath who came from Gath. He had a spear that was very thick and heavy, like a big tree.
6 There was another battle at Gath. Another descendant of Rapha fought against the Israelites there. He was a very large man. He had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot. 7 He shouted to insult the Israelite soldiers. So Jonathan, the son of David's brother Shimea, killed him.
8 Those Philistines were descendants of Rapha and they lived in Gath. David and his soldiers killed all of them.
