Discovery Box2 Samuel 10:16 
Context10:16 Then Hadadezer sent for Arameans from 1 beyond the Euphrates River, 2 and they came to Helam. Shobach, the general in command of Hadadezer’s army, led them. 3
2 Samuel 10:18
Context10:18 The Arameans fled before Israel. David killed 700 Aramean charioteers and 40,000 foot soldiers. 4 He also struck down Shobach, the general in command of the army, who died there.
1 tn Heb “and Hadadezer sent and brought out Aram which is.”
2 tn Heb “from beyond the River.” The name “Euphrates” has been supplied in the translation for clarity.
3 tn Heb “was before them.”
4 tn Heb “horsemen” (so KJV, NASB, NCV, NRSV, NLT) but the Lucianic recension of the LXX reads “foot soldiers,” as does the parallel text in 1 Chr 19:18. Cf. NAB, NIV.
