La Bible David Martin

1 Rois 20:27

On fit aussi le dénombrement des enfants d'Israël; et s'étant fournis de vivres, ils s'en allèrent contre les Syriens. Les enfants d'Israël se campèrent vis-à-vis d'eux; et ils ne paraissaient pas plus que deux troupeaux de chèvres; mais les Syriens remplissaient la terre.

La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Et les enfants d'Israël furent aussi passés en revue et fournis de vivres; et ils marchèrent à leur rencontre. Les enfants d'Israël campèrent vis-à-vis d'eux, comme deux petits troupeaux de chèvres; mais les Syriens remplissaient le pays.
Darby's French Translation
Et les fils d'Israël furent dénombrés et approvisionnés; et les fils d'Israël allèrent à leur rencontre, et ils campèrent vis-à-vis d'eux, comme deux petits troupeaux de chèvres, et les Syriens remplissaient le pays.
Louis Segond (1910)
Les enfants d'Israël furent aussi passés en revue; ils reçurent des vivres, et ils marchèrent à la rencontre des Syriens. Ils campèrent vis-à-vis d'eux, semblables à deux petits troupeaux de chèvres, tandis que les Syriens remplissaient le pays.

like two: Deuteronomy 32:30, Judges 6:5, 1 Samuel 13:5-8, 1 Samuel 14:2, 2 Chronicles 32:7, 2 Chronicles 32:8, Ecclesiastes 9:11

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the children of Israel were numbered, and were all present,.... The same as before; the two hundred and thirty two young men of the princes of the provinces, and 7000 of the people, not one was missing:

and went against them; out of Samaria, towards Aphek:

and the children of Israel pitched before them like two little flocks of kids: being few and weak, the two hundred and thirty two young men in one body, and the 7000 in another:

but the Syrians filled the country: with their men, their horses, and their chariots.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Were all present - The marginal rendering is adopted by almost all critics.

Like two little flocks of kids - The word translated “little flocks” does not occur elsewhere in Scripture. It seems to mean simply “flocks.” Compare the Septuagint, who render ὡσεί δύο ποίμνια αἰγῶν hōsei duo poimnia aigōn.
