When the Ammonites saw that the Arameans fled, they likewise fled before Abishai, Joab’s brother, and entered the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
So Joab and the troops who were with him advanced toward the Arameans for battle, and they fled before him.
But when the Arameans saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they sent messengers and brought out the Arameans who were beyond the River, with Shophach the commander of the army of Hadadezer at their head.
You shall give chase to your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
