1 Chronicles 19:6-19

And when the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that they had made themselves odious
<0887> (8694)
to David
<01732>_,
Hanun
<02586>
and the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
sent
<07971> (8799)
a thousand
<0505>
talents
<03603>
of silver
<03701>
to hire
<07936> (8800)
them chariots
<07393>
and horsemen
<06571>
out of Mesopotamia
<0763>_,
and out of Syriamaachah
<0758> <04601>_,
and out of Zobah
<06678>_.
{odious: Heb. to stink}
So they hired
<07936> (8799)
thirty
<07970>
and two
<08147>
thousand
<0505>
chariots
<07393>_,
and the king
<04428>
of Maachah
<04601>
and his people
<05971>_;
who came
<0935> (8799)
and pitched
<02583> (8799)
before
<06440>
Medeba
<04311>_.
And the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
gathered themselves together
<0622> (8738)
from their cities
<05892>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to battle
<04421>_.
And when David
<01732>
heard
<08085> (8799)
[of it], he sent
<07971> (8799)
Joab
<03097>_,
and all the host
<06635>
of the mighty men
<01368>_.
And the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
came out
<03318> (8799)_,
and put the battle
<04421>
in array
<06186> (8799)
before the gate
<06607>
of the city
<05892>_:
and the kings
<04428>
that were come
<0935> (8804)
[were] by themselves in the field
<07704>_.
Now when Joab
<03097>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that the battle
<04421>
was set against him before
<06440>
and behind
<0268>_,
he chose out
<0977> (8799)
of all the choice
<0977> (8803)
of Israel
<03478>_,
and put [them] in array
<06186> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
the Syrians
<0758>_.
{the battle...: Heb. the face of the battle was} {choice: or, young men}
And the rest
<03499>
of the people
<05971>
he delivered
<05414> (8804)
unto the hand
<03027>
of Abishai
<052>
his brother
<0251>_,
and they set [themselves] in array
<06186> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_.
{Abishai: Heb. Abshai}
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
If the Syrians
<0758>
be too strong
<02388> (8799)
for me, then thou shalt help
<08668>
me: but if the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
be too strong
<02388> (8799)
for thee, then I will help
<03467> (8689)
thee.
Be of good courage
<02388> (8798)_,
and let us behave ourselves valiantly
<02388> (8691)
for our people
<05971>_,
and for the cities
<05892>
of our God
<0430>_:
and let the LORD
<03068>
do
<06213> (8799)
[that which is] good
<02896>
in his sight
<05869>_.
So Joab
<03097>
and the people
<05971>
that [were] with him drew nigh
<05066> (8799)
before
<06440>
the Syrians
<0758>
unto the battle
<04421>_;
and they fled
<05127> (8799)
before
<06440>
him.
And when the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
saw
<07200> (8804)
that the Syrians
<0758>
were fled
<05127> (8804)_,
they likewise fled
<05127> (8799)
before
<06440>
Abishai
<052>
his brother
<0251>_,
and entered
<0935> (8799)
into the city
<05892>_.
Then Joab
<03097>
came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
And when the Syrians
<0758>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that they were put to the worse
<05062> (8738)
before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_,
they sent
<07971> (8799)
messengers
<04397>_,
and drew forth
<03318> (8686)
the Syrians
<0758>
that [were] beyond
<05676>
the river
<05104>_:
and Shophach
<07780>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
of Hadarezer
<01928>
[went] before
<06440>
them. {river: that is, Euphrates} {Shophach: also called, Shobach}
And it was told
<05046> (8714)
David
<01732>_;
and he gathered
<0622> (8799)
all Israel
<03478>_,
and passed over
<05674> (8799)
Jordan
<03383>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
upon them, and set [the battle] in array
<06186> (8799)
against them. So when David
<01732>
had put the battle
<04421>
in array
<06186> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
the Syrians
<0758>_,
they fought
<03898> (8735)
with him.
But the Syrians
<0758>
fled
<05127> (8799)
before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_;
and David
<01732>
slew
<02026> (8799)
of the Syrians
<0758>
seven
<07651>
thousand
<0505>
[men which fought in] chariots
<07393>_,
and forty
<0705>
thousand
<0505>
footmen
<0376> <07273>_,
and killed
<04191> (8689)
Shophach
<07780>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>_.
And when the servants
<05650>
of Hadarezer
<01928>
saw
<07200> (8799)
that they were put to the worse
<05062> (8738)
before
<06440>
Israel
<03478>_,
they made peace
<07999> (8686)
with David
<01732>_,
and became his servants
<05647> (8799)_:
neither would
<014> (8804)
the Syrians
<0758>
help
<03467> (8687)
the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>
any more.
