2 Samuel 10:7-19
7And when DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, he sentH7971 JoabH3097, and allH3605 the hostH6635 of the mightyH1368 menH1368. 8And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 cameH3318 outH3318, and putH3318 the battleH4421 in arrayH4421 at the entering in of the gateH8179: and the Syrians of ZobahH6678, and of RehobH7340, and the menH376 of TobH2897 and MaacahH4601, were by themselvesH905 in the fieldH7704. 9NowH1961 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: 10And the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 he committedH5414 intoH3027 the handH3027 of AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, and he putH5414 them in array againstH7125 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983. 11And 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 comeH1980 and helpH3467 thee. 12Be 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. 13SoH834 JoabH3097 and the peopleH5971 that were with him drewH5066 nigh unto the battleH4421 againstH5973 the Syrians: and they fledH5127 beforeH6440 him. 14And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that the Syrians were fledH5127, they likewise fledH5127 beforeH6440 AbishaiH52, and enteredH935 intoH935 the cityH5892. Then JoabH3097 returnedH7725 from the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and cameH935 to JerusalemH3389. 15And when the Syrians sawH7200 that they were putH622 to the worse beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they gatheredH622 themselvesH622 togetherH3162. 16And Hadarezer sentH7971, and broughtH935 outH3318 the Syrians that were beyondH5676 the RiverH5104: and they cameH935 to HelamH2431, with ShobachH7731 the captainH8269 of the hostH6635 of Hadarezer at their headH8269. 17And it was toldH5046 DavidH1732; and he gatheredH622 allH3605 IsraelH3478 togetherH622, and passedH5674 over JordanH3383, and cameH935 to HelamH2431. And the Syrians setH935 themselvesH622 in array againstH5973 DavidH1732, and foughtH3898 with him. 18And the Syrians fledH5127 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478; and DavidH1732 slewH2026 of the Syrians the menH3478 of sevenH7651 hundredH3967 chariotsH7393, and fortyH705 thousandH505 horsemenH6571, and smoteH5221 ShobachH7731 the captainH8269 of their hostH6635, that he diedH4191 there. 19And when allH3605 the kingsH4428 that were servantsH5650 to Hadarezer sawH7200 that they were put to the worse beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they madeH3605 peace with IsraelH3478, and servedH5647 them. SoH3588 the Syrians fearedH3372 to helpH3467 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 anyH3605 moreH5750.
