1 Kings 20:26-30

26And it cameH1961 to passH1961 at the returnH8666 of the yearH8141, that Ben-hadadH1130 musteredH6485 the Syrians, and wentH5927 upH5927 to AphekH663, to fightH4421 againstH5973 IsraelH3478.

27And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 were musteredH6485, and were victualled, and wentH7125 againstH7125 them: and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 encampedH2583 beforeH5048 them like twoH8147 littleH2835 flocksH2835 of kids; but the Syrians filledH4390 the countryH776.

28And a manH376 of GodH430 cameH5066 nearH5066 and spake unto the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, and saidH559, ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068, BecauseH3588 the Syrians have saidH559, The LORDH3068 is a godH430 of the hillsH2022, but he is notH3808 a godH430 of the valleysH6010; therefore will I deliverH5414 allH3605 this greatH1419 multitudeH1995 intoH413 thine handH3027, and ye shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068.

29And they encampedH2583 one over againstH4421 the otherH259 sevenH7651 daysH3117. And soH1961 it was, that in the seventhH7637 dayH3117 the battleH4421 was joinedH7126; and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 slewH5221 of the Syrians an hundredH3967 thousandH505 footmenH7273 in one dayH3117.

30But the restH3498 fledH5127 to AphekH663, intoH413 the cityH5892; and the wallH2346 fellH5307 uponH5921 twentyH6242 and sevenH7651 thousandH505 menH376 that were leftH3498. And Ben-hadadH1130 fledH5127, and cameH935 intoH413 the cityH5892, intoH413 an innerH2315 chamberH2315.
