1 Kings 20:23-25

New Catholic Bible

²³ The servants of the king of Aram said to him, “Their gods are the gods of the hills. That is why they were stronger than we were. We should fight against them in the plain, and we will surely be stronger than they are. ²⁴ Just do this, remove all of the kings from their command and replace them with the officers. ²⁵ You must assemble an army as large as the army you lost, horse for horse and chariot for chariot. Then we will be able to fight against them in the plain. We will certainly be stronger than they are.” He listened to their advice and followed it.
