*
And when David heard of it ,
he sent Joab Yow #
ab #,
and all the host of the mighty men .
*
And the children of Ammon came out ,
and put the battle in array before the gate of the city :
and the kings that were come were by themselves in the field .
*
Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind ,
he chose out of all the choice of Israel Yisra #
el #,
and put them in array against the Syrians .
*
And the rest of the people he delivered unto the hand of Abishai his brother ,
and they set themselves in array against the children of Ammon .
*
And he said ,
If the Syrians be too strong for me ,
then thou shalt help me :
but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee ,
then I will help thee .
*
Be of good courage ,
and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people ,
and for the cities of our God :
and let the LORD do that which is good in his sight .
*
So Joab and the people that were with him drew nigh before the Syrians unto the battle ;
and they fled before him .
*
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled ,
they likewise fled before Abishai his brother ,
and entered into the city .
Then Joab came to Jerusalem .
*
And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel Yisra #
el #,
they sent messengers mal #
ak #,
and drew forth the Syrians that were beyond the river :
and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them .
*
And it was told David ;
and he gathered all Israel Yisra #
el #,
and passed over Jordan ,
and came upon them ,
and set the battle in array against them .
So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians ,
they fought with him .
*
But the Syrians fled before Israel Yisra #
el #;
and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand men which fought in chariots ,
and forty #
arba #
iym #
thousand footmen #
H7273 ,
and killed Shophach the captain of the host .
*
And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel Yisra #
el #,
they made peace with David ,
and became his servants :
neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more .
