2 Chronicles 20:23-25
Holman Christian Standard Bible
23 The Ammonites and Moabites turned against the inhabitants of Mount Seir and completely annihilated them.(A) When they had finished with the inhabitants of Seir, they helped destroy each other.(B)
24 When Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked for the large army, but there were only corpses lying on the ground; nobody had escaped. 25 Then Jehoshaphat and his people went to gather the plunder. They found among them[a] an abundance of goods on the bodies[b] and valuable items. So they stripped them until nobody could carry any more. They were gathering the plunder for three days because there was so much.

2 Chronicles 20:23-25
New International Version
23 The Ammonites(A) and Moabites rose up against the men from Mount Seir(B) to destroy and annihilate them. After they finished slaughtering the men from Seir, they helped to destroy one another.(C)
24 When the men of Judah came to the place that overlooks the desert and looked toward the vast army, they saw only dead bodies lying on the ground; no one had escaped. 25 So Jehoshaphat and his men went to carry off their plunder, and they found among them a great amount of equipment and clothing[a] and also articles of value—more than they could take away. There was so much plunder that it took three days to collect it.
