1 Chronicles 20:4-8 Bible in Basic English (BBE)

4 Now after this there was war with the Philistines at Gezer; then Sibbecai the Hushathite put to death Sippai, one of the offspring of the Rephaim; and they were overcome.

5 And again there was war with the Philistines; and Elhanan, the son of Jair, put to death Lahmi, the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the stem of whose spear was like a cloth-worker's rod.

6 And again there was war at Gath, where there was a very tall man, who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet; he was one of the offspring of the Rephaim.

7 And when he put shame on Israel, Jonathan, the son of Shimea, David's brother, put him to death.

8 These were of the offspring of the Rephaim in Gath; they came to their death by the hands of David and his servants.
