10 Joab vit qu’il avait à combattre par devant et par derrière. Il choisit alors sur toute l’élite d’Israël un corps, qu’il opposa aux Syriens;

11 et il plaça sous le commandement de son frère Abischaï le reste du peuple, pour faire face aux fils d’Ammon.

12 Il dit: Si les Syriens sont plus forts que moi, tu viendras à mon secours; et si les fils d’Ammon sont plus forts que toi, j’irai à ton secours.

13 Sois ferme, et montrons du courage pour notre peuple et pour les villes de notre Dieu, et que l’Éternel fasse ce qui lui semblera bon!
