2 Samuel 10:15-17

Living Bible

^15-16 The Syrians now realized that they were no match for Israel. So when they regrouped, they were joined by additional Syrian troops summoned by Hadadezer from the other side of the Euphrates River. These troops arrived at Helam under the command of Shobach, the commander-in-chief of all of Hadadezer’s forces.

¹⁷ When David heard what was happening, he personally led the Israeli army to Helam, where the Syrians attacked him.
