The Giants - 1st Chronicles 20

1 Chronicles 20:1 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. 

1 Chronicles 20:2 And David took the crown of their king  from off his head, and found it to weigh a talent of gold, and  there were precious stones in it; and it was set upon  David’s head: and he brought also exceeding much spoil out  of the city. 

1 Chronicles 20:3 And he brought out the people that  were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of  iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities  of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people  returned to Jerusalem.
