*
When Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind ,
he chose of all the choice men of Israel Yisra #
el #,
and put them in array against the Syrians :
*
And the rest of the people he delivered into the hand of Abishai his brother ,
that he might put them 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 come and help thee .
*
Be of good courage ,
and let us play the men for our people ,
and for the cities of our God :
and the LORD do that which seemeth him good .
*
And Joab drew nigh ,
and the people that were with him ,
unto the battle against the Syrians :
and they fled before him .
*
And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled ,
then fled they also before Abishai ,
and entered into the city .
So Joab returned from the children of Ammon ,
and came to Jerusalem .
