2 Samuel 10:17-19

The Voice

¹⁷ When David got this news, he gathered his army, crossed over the Jordan River, and went to Helam. The Arameans came out and arranged themselves to fight David ¹⁸ and ran from Israel in defeat: David killed 700 charioteers and 40,000 horsemen,^[a] and he mortally wounded Shobach the commander of their army, who died there.

¹⁹ When all the rulers who were subject to Hadadezer learned of Israel’s victories, they gave up and made peace with Israel and became subject to them. So the Arameans were afraid and would no longer help the Ammonites against David.
