2 Samuel 17:11-13

11But I adviseH3289 that allH3605 IsraelH3478 be fullyH622 gatheredH622 to you, 1from DanH1835 even to BeershebaH884, 2like the sandH2344 that is by the seaH3220 in abundanceH7230; and that 3you personallyH6440 goH1980 into battleH7128.

12Then we will comeH935 to him in oneH259 of the placesH4725 whereH834H8033 he can be foundH4672, and we will 4fallH5117 on him 5justH3512 asH3512 the dewH2919 fallsH5307 on the groundH127; and of him and of allH3605 the menH376 whoH834 are with him, not evenH1571 oneH259 will be leftH3498.

13And ifH518 he withdrawsH622 into a cityH5892, then allH3605 IsraelH3478 shall bringH5375 ropesH2256 to that cityH5892, and we will 6dragH5498 it into the 7valleyH5158 untilH5704H834 not evenH1571 a pebbleH6872 is foundH4672 thereH8033.”
