And it came to pass after thisH310, that the kingH4428 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 diedH4191, and HanunH2586 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
Then saidH559 DavidH1732, I will shewH6213 kindnessH2617 unto HanunH2586 the sonH1121 of NahashH5176, as his fatherH1 shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 unto me. And DavidH1732 sentH7971 to comfortH5162 him by the handH3027 of his servantsH5650 for his fatherH1. And David'sH1732 servantsH5650 cameH935 into the landH776 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
And the princesH8269 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 saidH559 unto HanunH2586 their lordH113, ThinkestH5869 thou that DavidH1732 doth honourH3513 thy fatherH1, that he hath sentH7971 comfortersH5162 unto thee? hath not DavidH1732 rather sentH7971 his servantsH5650 unto thee, toH5668 searchH2713 the cityH5892, and to spy it outH7270, and to overthrowH2015 it? {Thinkest…: Heb. In thine eyes doth David?}
Wherefore HanunH2586 tookH3947 David'sH1732 servantsH5650, and shaved offH1548 the one halfH2677 of their beardsH2206, and cut offH3772 their garmentsH4063 in the middleH2677, even to their buttocksH8357, and sent them awayH7971.
When they toldH5046 it unto DavidH1732, he sentH7971 to meetH7125 them, because the menH582 were greatlyH3966 ashamedH3637: and the kingH4428 saidH559, TarryH3427 at JerichoH3405 until your beardsH2206 be grownH6779, and then returnH7725.
And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that they stankH887 before DavidH1732, the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sentH7971 and hiredH7936 the SyriansH758 of BethrehobH1050, and the SyriansH758 of ZobaH6678, twentyH6242 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and of kingH4428 MaacahH4601 a thousandH505 menH376, and of IshtobH382 twelveH6240+H8147 thousandH505 menH376. {Ishtob: or, the men of Tob}
And when DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, he sentH7971 JoabH3097, and all the hostH6635 of the mighty menH1368.
And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 came outH3318, and put the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 at the entering inH6607 of the gateH8179: and the SyriansH758 of ZobaH6678, and of RehobH7340, and IshtobH382, and MaacahH4601, were by themselvesH905 in the fieldH7704.
When JoabH3097 sawH7200 that the frontH6440 of the battleH4421 was against him beforeH6440 and behindH268, he choseH977 of all the choiceH977 men of IsraelH3478, and put them in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the SyriansH758:
And the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 he deliveredH5414 into the handH3027 of AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, that he might put them in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983.
And he saidH559, If the SyriansH758 be too strongH2388 for me, then thou shalt helpH3444 me: but if the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 be too strongH2388 for thee, then I will comeH1980 and helpH3467 thee.
Be of good courageH2388, and let us play the menH2388 for our peopleH5971, and for the citiesH5892 of our GodH430: and the LORDH3068 doH6213 that which seemethH5869 him goodH2896.
And JoabH3097 drew nighH5066, and the peopleH5971 that were with him, unto the battleH4421 against the SyriansH758: and they fledH5127 beforeH6440 him.
And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that the SyriansH758 were fledH5127, then fledH5127 they also beforeH6440 AbishaiH52, and enteredH935 into the cityH5892. So JoabH3097 returnedH7725 from the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and cameH935 to JerusalemH3389.
And when the SyriansH758 sawH7200 that they were smittenH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they gatheredH622 themselves togetherH3162.
And HadarezerH1928 sentH7971, and brought outH3318 the SyriansH758 that were beyondH5676 the riverH5104: and they cameH935 to HelamH2431; and ShobachH7731 the captainH8269 of the hostH6635 of HadarezerH1928 went beforeH6440 them. {the river: that is, Euphrates} {Shobach: or, Shophach}
And when it was toldH5046 DavidH1732, he gatheredH622 all IsraelH3478 togetherH622, and passed overH5674 JordanH3383, and cameH935 to HelamH2431. And the SyriansH758 set themselves in arrayH6186 againstH7125 DavidH1732, and foughtH3898 with him.
And the SyriansH758 fledH5127 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478; and DavidH1732 slewH2026 the men of sevenH7651 hundredH3967 chariotsH7393 of the SyriansH758, and fortyH705 thousandH505 horsemenH6571, and smoteH5221 ShobachH7731 the captainH8269 of their hostH6635, who diedH4191 there.
And when all the kingsH4428 that were servantsH5650 to HadarezerH1928 sawH7200 that they were smittenH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they made peaceH7999 with IsraelH3478, and servedH5647 them. So the SyriansH758 fearedH3372 to helpH3467 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 any more.

These be the namesH8034 of the mighty menH1368 whom DavidH1732 had: The TachmoniteH8461 that satH3427 in the seatH7675+H3429, chiefH7218 among the captainsH7991; the same was AdinoH5722 the EzniteH6112: he lift up his spear against eightH8083 hundredH3967, whom he slewH2491 at oneH259 timeH6471. {The Tachmonite…: or, Joshebbassebet the Tachmonite, head of the three. whom he…: Heb. slain. he lift…: See 1.Ch.11.11. whom he…: Heb. slain}
And afterH310 him was EleazarH499 the sonH1121 of DodoH1734 the AhohiteH266, one of the threeH7969 mighty menH1368 with DavidH1732, when they defiedH2778 the PhilistinesH6430 that were there gathered togetherH622 to battleH4421, and the menH376 of IsraelH3478 were gone awayH5927:
He aroseH6965, and smoteH5221 the PhilistinesH6430 untilH3588 his handH3027 was wearyH3021, and his handH3027 claveH1692 unto the swordH2719: and the LORDH3068 wroughtH6213 a greatH1419 victoryH8668 that dayH3117; and the peopleH5971 returnedH7725 afterH310 him only to spoilH6584.
And afterH310 him was ShammahH8048 the sonH1121 of AgeeH89 the HarariteH2043. And the PhilistinesH6430 were gathered togetherH622 into a troopH2416, where was a pieceH2513 of groundH7704 fullH4392 of lentilesH5742: and the peopleH5971 fledH5127 fromH6440 the PhilistinesH6430. {into…: or, for foraging}
But he stoodH3320 in the midstH8432 of the groundH2513, and defendedH5337 it, and slewH5221 the PhilistinesH6430: and the LORDH3068 wroughtH6213 a greatH1419 victoryH8668.
And threeH7969+H7970 of the thirtyH7970 chiefH7218 went downH3381, and cameH935 to DavidH1732 in the harvest timeH7105 unto the caveH4631 of AdullamH5725: and the troopH2416 of the PhilistinesH6430 pitchedH2583 in the valleyH6010 of RephaimH7497. {three…: or, the three captains over the thirty}
And DavidH1732 was then in an holdH4686, and the garrisonH4673 of the PhilistinesH6430 was then in BethlehemH1035.
And DavidH1732 longedH183, and saidH559, Oh that one would give me drinkH8248 of the waterH4325 of the wellH953 of BethlehemH1035, which is by the gateH8179!
And the threeH7969 mighty menH1368 brake throughH1234 the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430, and drewH7579 waterH4325 out of the wellH953 of BethlehemH1035, that was by the gateH8179, and tookH5375 it, and broughtH935 it to DavidH1732: nevertheless he wouldH14 not drinkH8354 thereof, but poured it outH5258 unto the LORDH3068.
And he saidH559, Be it farH2486 from me, O LORDH3068, that I should doH6213 this: is not this the bloodH1818 of the menH582 that wentH1980 in jeopardy of their livesH5315? therefore he wouldH14 not drinkH8354 it. These things didH6213 these threeH7969 mighty menH1368.
And AbishaiH52, the brotherH251 of JoabH3097, the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870, was chiefH7218 among threeH7992. And he lifted upH5782 his spearH2595 against threeH7969 hundredH3967, and slewH2491 them, and had the nameH8034 among threeH7969. {and slew them: Heb. slain}
Was he not most honourableH3513 of threeH7969? therefore he was their captainH8269: howbeit he attainedH935 not unto the first threeH7969.
And BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, the sonH1121 of a valiantH2428 manH376+H381, of KabzeelH6909, who had done manyH7227 actsH6467, he slewH5221 twoH8147 lionlike menH739 of MoabH4124: he went downH3381 also and slewH5221 a lionH738 in the midstH8432 of a pitH953 in timeH3117 of snowH7950: {who…: Heb. great of acts} {lionlike…: Heb. lion of God}
And he slewH2026 an EgyptianH4713, a goodlyH4758 manH376: and the EgyptianH4713 had a spearH2595 in his handH3027; but he went downH3381 to him with a staffH7626, and pluckedH1497 the spearH2595 out of the Egyptian'sH4713 handH3027, and slewH5221 him with his own spearH2595. {a goodly…: Heb. a man of countenance, or, sight: called I.Chr.I.23. a man of great stature}
These things didH6213 BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, and had the nameH8034 among threeH7969 mighty menH1368.
He was more honourableH3513 than the thirtyH7970, but he attainedH935 not to the first threeH7969. And DavidH1732 setH7760 him over his guardH4928. {more…: or, honourable among the thirty} {guard: or, council: Heb. at his command}

UriahH223 the HittiteH2850: thirtyH7970 and sevenH7651 in all.
And when DavidH1732 heardH8085 of it, he sentH7971 JoabH3097, and all the hostH6635 of the mighty menH1368.
And the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 came outH3318, and put the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 before the gateH6607 of the cityH5892: and the kingsH4428 that were comeH935 were by themselves in the fieldH7704.
Now when JoabH3097 sawH7200 that the battleH4421 was set against him beforeH6440 and behindH268, he chose outH977 of all the choiceH977 of IsraelH3478, and put them in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the SyriansH758. {the battle…: Heb. the face of the battle was} {choice: or, young men}
And the restH3499 of the peopleH5971 he deliveredH5414 unto the handH3027 of AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, and they set themselves in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983. {Abishai: Heb. Abshai}
And he saidH559, If the SyriansH758 be too strongH2388 for me, then thou shalt helpH8668 me: but if the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 be too strongH2388 for thee, then I will helpH3467 thee.
Be of good courageH2388, and let us behave ourselves valiantlyH2388 for our peopleH5971, and for the citiesH5892 of our GodH430: and let the LORDH3068 doH6213 that which is goodH2896 in his sightH5869.
So JoabH3097 and the peopleH5971 that were with him drew nighH5066 beforeH6440 the SyriansH758 unto the battleH4421; and they fledH5127 beforeH6440 him.
And when the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 sawH7200 that the SyriansH758 were fledH5127, they likewise fledH5127 beforeH6440 AbishaiH52 his brotherH251, and enteredH935 into the cityH5892. Then JoabH3097 cameH935 to JerusalemH3389.
And when the SyriansH758 sawH7200 that they were put to the worseH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they sentH7971 messengersH4397, and drew forthH3318 the SyriansH758 that were beyondH5676 the riverH5104: and ShophachH7780 the captainH8269 of the hostH6635 of HadarezerH1928 went beforeH6440 them. {river: i.that is, Euphrates} {Shophach: or, Shobach.2Sam.10.16}
And it was toldH5046 DavidH1732; and he gatheredH622 all IsraelH3478, and passed overH5674 JordanH3383, and cameH935 upon them, and set the battle in arrayH6186 against them. So when DavidH1732 had put the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 againstH7125 the SyriansH758, they foughtH3898 with him.
But the SyriansH758 fledH5127 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478; and DavidH1732 slewH2026 of the SyriansH758 sevenH7651 thousandH505 men which fought in chariotsH7393, and fortyH705 thousandH505 footmenH376+H7273, and killedH4191 ShophachH7780 the captainH8269 of the hostH6635.
And when the servantsH5650 of HadarezerH1928 sawH7200 that they were put to the worseH5062 beforeH6440 IsraelH3478, they made peaceH7999 with DavidH1732, and became his servantsH5647: neither wouldH14 the SyriansH758 helpH3467 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 any more.
