1 Kungaboken 20:25

Svenska Bibel

Skaffa dig sedan själv en här, lika stor som den du har förlorat, med lika många hästar och lika många vagnar, och låt oss sedan strida mot dem på slätten, så skola vi förvisso bliva dem övermäktiga.» Och han lyssnade till deras ord och gjorde så.

thou hast lost: Heb. was fallen

and surely: Psalms 10:3

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And number thee an army like the army that thou hast lost,.... Raise an army of an equal number, which they supposed he was able to do:

horse for horse and chariot for chariot; as many horses and chariots as he had before:

and we will fight against them in the plain; where they could make use of their horses and chariots to greater advantage than on hills and mountains, see Judges 1:19

and surely we shall be stronger than they; and beat them:

and he hearkened unto their voice, and did so; took their counsel, and prepared an army, and placed captains in it instead of kings.
