1 Kings 20:23-25
New English Translation
23 Now the advisers[a] of the king of Syria said to him: “Their God is a god of the mountains. That’s why they overpowered us. But if we fight them in the plains, we will certainly overpower them. 24 So do this: Dismiss the kings from their command, and replace them with military commanders. 25 Muster an army like the one you lost, with the same number of horses and chariots.[b] Then we will fight them in the plains; we will certainly overpower them.” He approved their plan and did as they advised.[c]
