*
And it came to pass at the return of the year ,
that Benhadad numbered the Syrians ,
and went up to Aphek ,
to fight against Israel .
*
And the children of Israel were numbered ,
and were all present ,
and went against them :
and the children of Israel pitched before them like two little flocks of kids ;
but the Syrians filled the country .
*
And there came a man of God ,
and spake unto the king of Israel ,
and said ,
Thus saith the LORD ,
Because the Syrians have said ,
The LORD is God of the hills ,
but he is not God of the valleys ,
therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand ,
and ye shall know that I am the LORD .
*
And they pitched one over against the other seven days .
And so it was ,
that in the seventh day the battle was joined :
and the children of Israel slew of the Syrians an hundred thousand footmen in one day .
*
But the rest fled to Aphek ,
into the city ;
and there a wall fell upon twenty and seven thousand of the men that were left .
And Benhadad fled ,
and came into the city ,
into an inner chamber .
