New American Standard Bible 1995
17 Now when it was told David, he gathered all Israel together and crossed the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Arameans arrayed themselves to meet David and fought against him. 18 But the Arameans fled before Israel, and David killed (A)700 charioteers of the Arameans and 40,000 horsemen and struck down Shobach the commander of their army, and he died there. 19 When all the kings, servants of Hadadezer, saw that they were [a]defeated by Israel, (B)they made peace with Israel and served them. So the Arameans feared to help the sons of Ammon anymore.
