13And behold, a prophet came near to Ahab king of Israel and said, “Thus says the Lord, Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, aI will give it into your hand this day, band you shall know that I am the Lord.”

19So these went out of the city, the servants of the governors of the districts and the army that followed them. 20And each struck down his man. The Syrians fled, and Israel pursued them, but Ben-hadad king of Syria escaped on a horse with horsemen. 21And the king of Israel went out and struck the horses and chariots, and struck the Syrians with a great blow.

1 Kings 20:28-30

28And a cman of God came near and said to the king of Israel, “Thus says the Lord, ‘Because the Syrians have said, d“The Lord is a god of the hills but he is not a god of the valleys,” therefore eI will give all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am the Lord.’” 29And they encamped opposite one another seven days. Then on the seventh day the battle was joined. And the people of Israel struck down of the Syrians 100,000 foot soldiers in one day. 30And the rest fled into the city of fAphek, and the wall fell upon 27,000 men who were left.

Ben-hadad also fled and entered gan inner chamber in the city.

2 Chronicles 13:5-16

5Ought you not to know that the Lord God of Israel hgave the kingship over Israel forever to David and his sons by ia covenant of salt? 6Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, a servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up jand rebelled against his lord, 7and certain kworthless scoundrels gathered about him and defied Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was lyoung and irresolute
Hebrew soft of heart
and could not withstand them.

8“And now you think to withstand the kingdom of the Lord in the hand of the sons of David, because you are a great multitude and have with you nthe golden calves that Jeroboam made you for gods. 9 oHave you not driven out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made priests for yourselves like the peoples of other lands? Whoever comes pfor ordination
Hebrew to fill his hand
with a young bull or seven rams becomes a priest of what are rnot gods.
10But as for us, the Lord is our God, and we have not forsaken him. We have priests ministering to the Lord who are sons of Aaron, and Levites for their service. 11They offer to the Lord severy morning and every evening burnt offerings and incense of sweet spices, set out tthe showbread on the table of pure gold, uand care for the golden lampstand that its lamps may vburn every evening. For we wkeep the charge of the Lord our God, but you have forsaken him. 12Behold, God is with us at our head, and his priests xwith their battle trumpets to sound the call to battle against you. O sons of Israel, ydo not fight against the Lord, the God of your fathers, for you cannot succeed.”

13Jeroboam had sent zan ambush around to come upon them from behind. Thus his troops
Hebrew they
were in front of Judah, and the ambush was behind them.
14And when Judah looked, behold, the battle was in front of and behind them. abAnd they cried to the Lord, and the priests acblew the trumpets. 15Then the men of Judah raised the battle shout. And when the men of Judah shouted, adGod defeated Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah. 16The men of Israel fled before Judah, aeand God gave them into their hand.

Jeremiah 46:15-16

15Why are your mighty ones face down?
They do not stand
Hebrew He does not stand

because the Lord thrust them down.
16He made many stumble, agand they fell,
and they said one to another,
Arise, and let us go back to our own people
and to the land of our birth,
ahbecause of the sword of the oppressor.’
