2 Kings 7:6-7

The Syrians Flee

6 For the Lord had made the army of the Syrians j hear the sound of chariots and of horses, the sound of a great army, so that they said to one another, "Behold, the king of Israel has hired against us k the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Egypt to come against us." 7 l So they fled away in the twilight and abandoned their tents, their horses, and their donkeys, leaving the camp as it was, and fled for their lives.
