2 Samuel 17:11-13

11But I advise that all Israel be fully gathered to you, 1from Dan even to Beersheba, 2like the sand that is by the sea in abundance; and that 3you personally go into battle.

12Then we will come to him in one of the places where he can be found, and we will 4fall on him 5just as the dew falls on the ground; and of him and of all the men who are with him, not even one will be left.

13And if he withdraws into a city, then all Israel shall bring ropes to that city, and we will 6drag it into the 7valley until not even a pebble is found there.”
