15When Aram saw that it had been defeated before Israel, they gathered together.

16Hadadezer sent and brought out the Arameans who were beyond the River, and they came to Helam, with Shobak the commander of Hadadezer’s army before them.

17When it was reported to David, he gathered all Israel, crossed the Jordan, and came to Helam. Then Aram drew up in battle formation to meet David and fought with him.

18Aram fled from before Israel, and David killed seven hundred charioteers and forty thousand horsemen from Aram. He also struck down Shobach, the commander of their army, and he died there.

19When all the kings who were servants of Hadadezer saw that they had been defeated before Israel, they made peace with Israel and served them. So Aram was afraid to save the sons of Ammon anymore.
