2 Samuel 10:18

18 The Arameans fled before Israel. David killed 700 Aramean charioteers and 40,000 foot soldiers. ^{▼▼ Heb “horsemen” (so KJV, NASB, NCV, NRSV, NLT) but the Lucianic recension of the LXX reads “foot soldiers,” as does the parallel text in 1 Chr 19:18. Cf. NAB, NIV.} He also struck down Shobach, the general in command of the army, who died there.
