2 Samuel 10 1 And it came to pass after this , that the king of the children of Ammon died , and Hanun his son reigned in his stead. Copy 2 Then said David , I will shew kindness unto Hanun the son of Nahash , as his father shewed kindness unto me. And David sent to comfort him by the hand of his servants for his father . And David’s servants came into the land of the children of Ammon . Copy 3 And the princes of the children of Ammon said unto Hanun their lord , Thinkest thou that David doth honour thy father , that he hath sent comforters unto thee? hath not David rather sent his servants unto thee, to search the city , and to spy it out , and to overthrow it? Copy 4 Wherefore Hanun took David’s servants , and shaved off the one half of their beards , and cut off their garments in the middle , even to their buttocks , and sent them away . Copy 5 When they told it unto David , he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed : and the king said , Tarry at Jericho until your beards be grown , and then return . Copy 6 And when the children of Ammon saw that they stank before David , the children of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth–rehob , and the Syrians of Zoba , twenty thousand footmen , and of king Maacah a thousand men , and of Ish–tob twelve thousand men . Copy 7 And when David heard of it, he sent Joab , and all the host of the mighty men . Copy 8 And the children of Ammon came out , and put the battle in array at the entering in of the gate : and the Syrians of Zoba , and of Rehob , and Ish–tob , and Maacah , were by themselves in the field . Copy 9 When Joab saw that the front of the battle was against him before and behind , he chose of all the choice men of Israel , and put them in array against the Syrians : Copy 10 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 . Copy 11 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. Copy 12 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 . Copy 13 And Joab drew nigh , and the people that were with him, unto the battle against the Syrians : and they fled before him. Copy 14 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 . Copy 15 And when the Syrians saw that they were smitten before Israel , they gathered themselves together . Copy 16 And Hadarezer sent , and brought out the Syrians that were beyond the river : and they came to Helam ; and Shobach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them. Copy 17 And when it was told David , he gathered all Israel together , and passed over Jordan , and came to Helam . And the Syrians set themselves in array against David , and fought with him. Copy 18 And the Syrians fled before Israel ; and David slew the men of seven hundred chariots of the Syrians , and forty thousand horsemen , and smote Shobach the captain of their host , who died there. Copy 19 And when all the kings that were servants to Hadarezer saw that they were smitten before Israel , they made peace with Israel , and served them. So the Syrians feared to help the children of Ammon any more. Copy
