Ben Hadad goes up to Aphek, and the children of Israel kill one hundred thousand footmen of the Syrians in one day
벤하닷이 아벡으로 올라오고 이스라엘 자손이 하루에 아람 보병 십만을 죽임
1 Kings 20:26–30: at the return of the year, Ben Hadad musters the Syrians and goes up to Aphek to fight against Israel. The children of Israel are mustered and given provisions, and go against them. The children of Israel encamp before them like two little flocks of young goats, but the Syrians fill the country. A man of God comes near and speaks to the king of Israel, and says, “The LORD says, ‘Because the Syrians have said, “The LORD is a god of the hills, but he is not a god of the valleys,” therefore I will deliver all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am the LORD.’” They encamp opposite each other for seven days. Then on the seventh day the battle is joined; and the children of Israel kill one hundred thousand footmen of the Syrians in one day. But the rest flee to Aphek, into the city; and the wall falls on twenty-seven thousand men who were left. Ben Hadad flees and comes into the city, into an inner room. Where WEB says at 20:30 that “the wall fell”, the Korean Revised Version reads 그 성이 그 남은 자 이만 칠천 위에 무너지고, with 성, the city or its wall.
