And it came to pass after this, that there arose (note: Or, continued, Heb. stood) war at Gezer (note: Or, Gob) with the Philistines; at which time Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Sippai, that was of the children of the giant (note: Or, Rapha): and they were subdued.
Some time later, war broke out with the Philistines at Gezer. At that time Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Sippai (note: Sippai is a variant of Saph; see 2 Samuel 21:18.), a descendant of the Rephaim (note: Or the giants; see also descendants of Rapha in verses 6 and 8.), and the Philistines were subdued.
