10 E vendo Joabe que a linha da batalha estava contra ele pela frente e por trás, escolheu de todos os mais capacitados que havia em Israel, e pôs seu esquadrão em formação contra os sírios.

11 Depois pôs os outros nas mãos de seu irmão Abisai, que os pôes em formação de batalha contra os amonitas.

12 E disse: Se os sírios forem mais fortes que eu, tu me socorrerás; e se os amonitas forem mais fortes que tu, eu te socorrerei.

13 Esforça-te, e sejamos corajosos por nosso povo, e pelas cidades de nosso Deus; e faça o SENHOR o que bem lhe parecer.
