2 Samuel 10:6-14

6And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that they stankH887 before DavidH1732, the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sentH7971 and hiredH7936 the SyriansH758 of BethrehobH1050, and the SyriansH758 of ZobaH6678, twentyH6242 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and of kingH4428 MaacahH4601 a thousandH505 menH376, and of IshtobH382 twelveH6240H8147 thousandH505 menH376.1 7And when DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, he sentH7971 JoabH3097, and all the hostH6635 of the mighty menH1368. 8And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 came outH3318, and put the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 at the entranceH6607 of the gateH8179: and the SyriansH758 of ZobaH6678, and of RehobH7340, and IshtobH382, and MaacahH4601, were by themselvesH905 in the fieldH7704. 9When JoabH3097 sawH7200 that the frontH6440 of the battleH4421 was against him beforeH6440 and behindH268, he choseH977 of all the choiceH977 men of IsraelH3478, and put them in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the SyriansH758: 10And the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 he deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, that he might put them in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983. 11And he saidH559, If the SyriansH758 shall be too strongH2388 for me, then thou shalt helpH3444 me: but if the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 shall be too strongH2388 for thee, then I will comeH1980 and helpH3467 thee. 12Be of good courageH2388, and let us play the menH2388 for our peopleH5971, and for the citiesH5892 of our GodH430: and the LORDH3068 doH6213 that which seemethH5869 him goodH2896. 13And JoabH3097 and the peopleH5971 that were with him, drew nearH5066, to the battleH4421 against the SyriansH758: and they fledH5127 beforeH6440 him. 14And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that the SyriansH758 had fledH5127, then fledH5127 they also beforeH6440 AbishaiH52, and enteredH935 into the cityH5892. So JoabH3097 returnedH7725 from the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and cameH935 to JerusalemH3389.
