2 Samuel 10:11-13

Lexham English Bible

¹¹ Then he said, “If Aram is stronger than I am, you must become my deliverer; but if the Ammonites^[a] are too strong for you, then I will come to rescue you. ¹² Be strong, and let us strengthen ourselves for the sake of the people and for the sake of the cities of our God. May Yahweh do what is good in his eyes. ¹³ Joab and all the people who were with him moved forward into the battle against Aram, and they fled from before him.
