2 Samuel 17:11-13
New American Standard Bible 1995
11 But I counsel that all Israel be surely gathered to you, (A)from Dan even to Beersheba, (B)as the sand that is by the sea in abundance, and that [a]you personally go into battle. 12 So we shall come to him in one of the places where he can be found, and we will [b]fall on him (C)as the dew falls on the ground; and of him and of all the men who are with him, not even one will be left. 13 If he withdraws into a city, then all Israel shall bring ropes to that city, and we will (D)drag it into the [c]valley until not even a small stone is found there.”

2 Samuel 17:11-13
New International Version
11 “So I advise you: Let all Israel, from Dan to Beersheba(A)—as numerous as the sand(B) on the seashore—be gathered to you, with you yourself leading them into battle. 12 Then we will attack him wherever he may be found, and we will fall on him as dew settles on the ground. Neither he nor any of his men will be left alive. 13 If he withdraws into a city, then all Israel will bring ropes to that city, and we will drag it down to the valley(C) until not so much as a pebble is left.”
