27 He sent messengers to David to report: “I have attacked Rabbah and have captured its water supply.
28 Now gather the rest of your forces, attack the city and take it yourself. I don't want to get the credit for capturing it.”
29 So David gathered his forces, went to Rabbah, attacked it, and conquered it.
30 From the head of the idol of the Ammonite god Molech David took a gold crown which weighed about 35 kilogrammes and had a jewel in it. David took the jewel and put it in his own crown. He also took a large amount of loot from the city
31 and put its people to work with saws, iron hoes, and iron axes, and forced them to work at making bricks. He did the same to the people of all the other towns of Ammon. Then he and his men returned to Jerusalem.
