Common English Bible

⁴⁰ Part of the king’s army was spread out on the high hills, and some troops were on the plain. They held their ranks and steadily moved forward. ⁴¹ Everyone who heard the noise of marching feet and clanking arms trembled because the army was very large and powerful. ⁴² Nevertheless, Judas and his army went forth to do battle. Six hundred of the king’s soldiers died.
