12. And he said, “If the Syrians are too strong for me, then you shall help me, but if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will help you.
13. Be strong, and let us use our strength for our people and for the cities of our God, and may the Lord do what seems good to him.”
14. So Joab and the people who were with him drew near before the Syrians for battle, and they fled before him.
15. And when the Ammonites saw that the Syrians fled, they likewise fled before Abishai, Joab’s brother, and entered the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.
