13:019:010 Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before
           and behind, he chose out of all the choice of Israel, and put
           them in array against the Syrians.

13:019:011 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.

13:019:012 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.

13:019:013 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.

13:019:014 So Joab and the people that were with him drew nigh before the
           Syrians unto the battle; and they fled before him.

13:019:015 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.

13:019:016 And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse
           before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the
           Syrians that were beyond the river:  and Shophach the captain
           of the host of Hadarezer went before them.

13:019:017 And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, 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.

13:019:018 But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the
           Syrians seven thousand men which fought in chariots, and forty
           thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.

13:019:019 And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to
           the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and
           became his servants:  neither would the Syrians help the
           children of Ammon any more.

13:020:001 And it came to pass, that after the year was expired, at the
           time that kings go out to battle, Joab led forth the power of
           the army, and wasted the country of the children of Ammon, and
           came and besieged Rabbah.  But David tarried at Jerusalem.  And
           Joab smote Rabbah, and destroyed it.

13:020:002 And David took the crown of their king from off his head, and
           found it to weigh a talent of gold, and there were precious
           stones in it; and it was set upon David’s head:  and he brought
           also exceeding much spoil out of the city.
