CebuanoUg iyang gipanala ang katawohan nga didto niini, ug gipamutang sila sa ilalum sa mga gabas, ug sa mga kahig nga puthaw, ug sa mga wasay nga puthaw, ug gipalatas sila sa hudno nga tisa: ug ingon niini ang gihimo niya sa tanang mga ciudad sa mga anak sa Ammon. Ug si David ug ang tanang katawohan mingpauli ngadto sa Jerusalem.
CroatianA narod koji bijaše u njemu izvede i stavi ga da radi kod pila, željeznim pijucima i željeznim sjekirama i upotrijebi ga za rad u ciglanama. I tako je isto èinio svim gradovima sinova Amonovih. Potom se David sa svom vojskom vrati u Jeruzalem. <p>
Danishog Indbyggerne slæbte han bort, satte dem til Savene, Jernhakkerne - og Jernøkserne og lod dem trælle ved Teglovnene. Således gjorde han ved alle Ammoniternes Byer. Derpå vendte David og hele Hæren tilbage til Jerusalem.
DutchHet volk nu, dat daarin was, voerde hij uit, en leide het onder zagen, en onder ijzeren dorswagens, en onder ijzeren bijlen, en deed hen door den ticheloven doorgaan; en alzo deed hij aan alle steden der kinderen Ammons. Daarna keerde David, en al het volk, weder naar Jeruzalem.
FinnishJa kansan, mitä siellä oli, hän vei pois ja asetti heitä kivisahojen ja rautahakkujen ja rautakirveiden ääreen ja pani heitä tiilentekoon. Näin hän teki kaikille ammonilaisten kaupungeille. Sitten Daavid ja kaikki väki palasi Jerusalemiin.

Hal itu dilakukannya juga terhadap penduduk kota-kota Amon yang lain. Sesudah itu Daud dan seluruh tentaranya kembali ke Yerusalem.
Indonesian-Terjemahan LamaMaka segala orang isinyapun dibawanya ke luar, dibentangkannya di bawah gergaji dan di bawah pengirik besi dan di bawah kapak besi, dan disuruhnya mereka itu berjalan terus dari dapur batu; demikianlah perbuatannya akan segala negeri bani Ammon. Kemudian dari pada itu pulanglah Daud dan segala rakyatpun sertanya ke Yeruzalem.
MaoriNa, ko nga tangata i roto, whakaputaina ana e ia ki waho, a whakamahia ana ki nga kani, ki nga harou rino, ki nga toki rino; i meinga ano ratou kia tika na roto i te tahunga pereki. Ko tana hoki tenei i mea ai ki nga pa katoa o nga tamariki a Am ona. Na hoki ana a Rawiri te iwi katoa ki Hiruharama.
NorwegianOg folket som bodde der, førte han ut og la dem under sager og treskesleder av jern og jernøkser og lot dem gå gjennem teglovner. Så gjorde han med alle Ammons barns byer. Derefter vendte David og alt folket tilbake til Jerusalem.
