1 For ver. 1-19, see 1 Chr. 19:1-19After this the king of the Ammonitesdied, and Hanunhis son reigned in his place. 2 And Davidsaid, "I will deal loyally10:2 Or kindly; twice in this versewith Hanunthe son of 1 Sam. 11:1Nahash, as his father dealt loyally with me." So Davidsent by his servants to console him concerning his father. And David’s servants came into the land of the Ammonites. 3 But the princes of the Ammonitessaid to Hanuntheir lord, "Do you think, because Davidhas sent comforters to you, that he is honoring your father? Has not Davidsent his servants to you to search the city and to spy it out and to overthrow it?" 4 So Hanuntook David’s servants and shaved off half the beard of each and cut off their garments in the middle, [Isa. 20:4]at their hips, and sent them away. 5 When it was told David, he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, "Remain at Jerichountil your beards have grown and then return."
6 When the Ammonitessaw that they had become a stench to David, the Ammonitessent and hired the Syrians of Judg. 18:28Beth-rehob, and ch. 8:3,5the Syrians of Zobah, 20,000 foot soldiers, and the king of [Josh. 13:11,13] Maacahwith 1,000 men, and the men of Judg. 11:3,5Tob, 12,000 men. 7 And when Davidheard of it, he sent Joaband all the host of ch. 23:8the mighty men. 8 And the Ammonitescame out and drew up in battle array at the entrance of the gate, and [See ver. 6above] the Syrians of Zobahand of Rehoband [See ver. 6above]the men of Toband Maacahwere by themselves in the open country.
9 When Joabsaw that the battle was set against him both in front and in the rear, he chose some of the best men of Israel and arrayed them against the Syrians. 10 The rest of his men he put in the charge of Abishaihis brother, and he arrayed them against the Ammonites. 11 And he said, "If the Syrians are too strong for me, then you shall help me, but if the Ammonitesare too strong for you, then I will come and help you. 12 See Deut. 31:6Be of good courage, and 1 Sam. 4:9;[1 Cor. 16:13] let us be courageous for our people, and for the cities of our God, and 1 Sam. 3:18may the Lorddo what seems good to him." 13 So Joaband the people who were with him drew near to battle against the Syrians, and they fled before him. 14 And when the Ammonitessaw that the Syrians fled, they likewise fled before Abishai and entered the city. Then Joabreturned from fighting against the Ammonitesand came to Jerusalem.
15 But when the Syrians saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they gathered themselves together. 16 And Hadadezersent and brought out the Syrians who were beyond [ch. 8:3] the Euphrates.10:16 Hebrew the RiverThey came to Helam, with [1 Chr. 19:16]Shobachthe commander of the army of Hadadezerat their head. 17 And when it was told David, he gathered all Israel together and crossed the Jordanand came to Helam. The Syrians arrayed themselves against Davidand fought with him. 18 And the Syrians fled before Israel, and Davidkilled of the Syrians the men of 700 chariots, and 40,000 horsemen, and wounded [1 Chr. 19:18]Shobachthe commander of their army, so that he died there. 19 And when all the kings who were servants of Hadadezersaw that they had been defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel ch. 8:6and became subject to them. So the Syrians were afraid to save the Ammonitesanymore.
