David passes over the Jordan to Helam and strikes Shobach, the captain of Hadadezer’s army

다윗이 요단을 건너 헬람에 이르고 하닷에셀의 군대 장관 소박을 침

2 Samuel 10:15–19: when the Syrians see that they are defeated by Israel, they gather themselves together. Hadadezer sends and brings out the Syrians who are beyond the River; and they come to Helam, with Shobach the captain of the army of Hadadezer at their head. David is told that; and he gathers all Israel together, passes over the Jordan, and comes to Helam. The Syrians set themselves in array against David and fight with him. The Syrians flee before Israel; and David kills seven hundred charioteers of the Syrians and forty thousand horsemen, and strikes Shobach the captain of their army, so that he dies there. When all the kings who are servants to Hadadezer see that they are defeated before Israel, they make peace with Israel and serve them. So the Syrians are afraid to help the children of Ammon any more.
