1 Chronicles

1 Chronicles 5:19–22

¹⁹They waged war against the Hagrites, as well as Jetur, Naphish, and Nodab.

²⁰And because they cried out to God in battle, they were helped against their enemies, and the Hagrites and all their allies were delivered into their hands. Because they put their trust in God, He answered their prayers. ²¹They seized the livestock of the Hagrites— 50,000 camels, 250,000 sheep, and 2,000 donkeys. They also took 100,000 captives, ²²and many others fell slain, because the battle belonged to God. And they occupied the land until the exile.
