Melachim Alef 20:23-25

Orthodox Jewish Bible

²³ The avadim of Melech Aram said unto him, Their elohim are elohei harim (g-ds of the hills); therefore they were stronger than we; but let us fight against them on the plain; then surely we shall be stronger than they.

²⁴ And do this thing: Remove the melachim, every ish from his makom (place, post), and put officers in their places;

²⁵ And muster thee an army, like the army that thou hast lost, sus for sus, and merkavah for merkavah; and we will fight against them on the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they. And he paid heed unto their voice, and did so.
