And he said, “If the Arameans are too strong for me, then you shall save me, but if the sons of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will come to save you.
But the remainder of the people he put in the hand of Abishai his brother; and he arranged them to meet the sons of Ammon.
Be strong, and let us show strength for the sake of our people and for the cities of our God; and may Yahweh do what is good in His sight.”
At whatever place you hear the sound of the trumpet, there gather together to us. Our God will fight for us.”
But I have prayed earnestly for you, that your faith may not fail; and you, once you have returned, strengthen your brothers.”
Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of those without strength and not just please ourselves.
Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
