12Then the kingH4428 gotH6965 upH6965 in the nightH3915 and saidH559 to his servantsH5650, “I will nowH4994 tellH5046 you whatH834 the ArameansH758 have doneH6213 to us. They knowH3045 that 1we are hungryH7457; so they have leftH3318H4480 the campH4264 2to hideH2247 themselves in the fieldH7704, sayingH559, ‘WhenH3588 they comeH3318 outH3318 of the cityH5892, we will captureH8610 them aliveH2416 and getH935 into the cityH5892.’” 13OneH259 of his servantsH5650 respondedH6030 and saidH559, “PleaseH4994, have some men takeH3947 fiveH2568 of the horsesH5483 that remainH7604, whichH834 are leftH7604 3in the city. BeholdH2009, they will be in any case like allH3605 the multitudeH1995 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 are leftH7604 in it; beholdH2009, they will be like allH3605 the multitudeH1995 of IsraelH3478 whoH834 have already perishedH8552, so let us sendH7971 them and seeH7200.” 14Therefore they tookH3947 twoH8147 chariotsH7393 with horsesH5483, and the kingH4428 sentH7971 them afterH310 the armyH4264 of the ArameansH758, sayingH559, “GoH1980 and seeH7200.” 15They wentH1980 afterH310 them to the JordanH3383, and beholdH2009, allH3605 the wayH1870 was fullH4392 of clothesH899 and equipmentH3627 whichH834 the ArameansH758 had thrownH7993 awayH7993 when they fledH2648 inH2648 aH2648 hurryH2648. Then the messengersH4397 returnedH7725 and informedH5046 the kingH4428.
