1 Chronicles 19:7-15

7SoH935 they hiredH7936 them thirtyH7970 and twoH8147 thousandH505 chariotsH7393, and the kingH4428 of MaacahH4601 and his peopleH5971; who cameH935 and pitchedH2583 beforeH6440 MedebaH4311. And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 gatheredH622 themselvesH622 togetherH622 from their cites, and cameH935 to battleH4421.

8And when DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, he sentH7971 JoabH3097, and allH3605 the hostH6635 of the mightyH1368 menH1368.

9And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 cameH935 outH3318, and putH935 the battleH4421 in arrayH4421 at the gateH6607 of the cityH5892: and the kingsH4428 that were comeH935 were by themselvesH905 in the fieldH7704.

10NowH1961 when JoabH3097 sawH7200 that the battleH4421 was set againstH413 him beforeH6440 and behindH268, he choseH977 of allH3605 the choiceH977 menH970 of IsraelH3478, and put them in arrayH4421 againstH413 the Syrians.

11And the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 he committedH5414 intoH3027 the handH3027 of AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, and they putH5414 themselves in array againstH7125 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.

12And he saidH559, IfH518 the Syrians be tooH4480 strongH2388 for meH4480, then thou shalt helpH3467 meH4480: but ifH518 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 be tooH4480 strongH2388 for thee, then I will helpH3467 thee.

13Be of goodH2896 courageH2388, and let usH5869 play the menH5971 for our peopleH5971, and for the citiesH5892 of our GodH430: and the LORDH3068 doH6213 that whichH5869 seemeth him goodH2896.

14SoH834 JoabH3097 and the peopleH5971 that were with him drewH5066 nigh beforeH6440 the Syrians unto the battleH4421; and they fledH5127 beforeH6440 him.

15And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that the Syrians were fledH5127, they likewise fledH5127 beforeH6440 AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, and enteredH935 intoH935 the cityH5892. Then JoabH3097 cameH935 to JerusalemH3389.
