1 Chronicles 19:10-15

10When JoabH3097 sawH7200 the battle linesH4421 before himH6440 and behind himH268, he selectedH977 some ofH3605 the bestH977 men of IsraelH3478 and arrayed themH6186 againstH7122 the ArameansH758. 11AndH853 he placedH5414 the restH3499 of the troopsH5971 under the commandH3027 of his brotherH251 AbishaiH52, who arrayed themH6186 againstH7122 the AmmonitesH1121H5983.

12“IfH518 the ArameansH758 are too strongH2388 for meH4480,” said JoabH559, “then you will comeH1961 to my rescueH8668. And ifH518 the AmmonitesH1121H5983 are too strongH2388 for youH4480, then I will come to your rescueH3467. 13Be strongH2388 and let us fight bravelyH2388 forH1157 our peopleH5971 and forH1157 the citiesH5892 of our GodH430. May the LORDH3068 doH2896 what is goodH6213 in His sightH5869.”

14So JoabH3097 and his troopsH5971 advancedH5066 to fightH4421 the ArameansH758, who fledH5127 beforeH6440 himH6440. 15When the AmmonitesH1121H5983 sawH7200 thatH3588 the ArameansH758 had fledH5127, theyH1992 tooH1571 fledH5127 beforeH6440 Joab’s brotherH251 AbishaiH52, and they enteredH935 the cityH5892. So JoabH3097 went backH935 to JerusalemH3389.
