1 Kings 20:18-22 - Israel Defeats The Syrians

18 He said: If they have come out for peace, take them alive and if they have come out for war, take them alive.

19 So the servants of the chiefs of the divisions of the land went out of the town, with the army following them. 20 Each one killed his opponent. The Syrians (Aramaeans) went in flight with Israel after them. Benhadad the king of Aram got away safely on a horse with his horsemen. 21 The king of Israel took the horses and the war-carriages and caused great destruction among the Syrians.

22 Then the prophet came up to the king of Israel, and said: Now make yourself strong. Be careful what you do. Otherwise a year from now the king of Aram will come up against you again.
