2 Samuel 10

¹⁰ And he placed the rest of the troops under the command of his brother Abishai, who arrayed them against the Ammonites.

¹¹ “If the Arameans are too strong for me,” said Joab, “then you will come to my rescue. And if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will come to your rescue.

¹² Be strong and let us fight bravely for our people and for the cities of our God. May the LORD do what is good in His sight.”

¹³ So Joab and his troops advanced to fight the Arameans, who fled before him.

¹⁴ When the Ammonites saw that the Arameans had fled, they too fled before Abishai, and they entered the city. So Joab returned from fighting against the Ammonites and came to Jerusalem.
