For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
Forsoþe þe Lord hadde maad a sown of charis, and of horsis, and of ful myche oost to be herd in þe castels of Sirie; and þei seiden togidere, Lo! þe kyng of Israel hath hirid bi meede ayens vs þe kyngis of Eþeis and of Egipcians; and þei camen on vs.
