1 Chronicles 19:10-12

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁰ When Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose from all the choice men of Israel and put them in array against the Syrians.

¹¹ The rest of the soldiers he delivered to Abishai his brother, and they were arrayed against the Ammonites.

¹² And he said, If the Syrians are too strong for me, then you help me; but if the Ammonites are too strong for you, I will help you.
