For the Lord had made the army of the Syrians to hear the sound of chariots and the sound of horses, even the noise of a great army; and they said to one another, “Behold, the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Egyptians to attack us.”

ગુજરાતી2 રાજાઓ ૭:૬
કેમ કે, પ્રભુ યહોવાહે અરામીઓના સૈન્યને રથોનો અવાજ, ઘોડાઓનો અવાજ અને મોટા સૈન્યનો અવાજ સંભળાવ્યો હતો, તેથી તેઓએ એકબીજાને કહ્યું, “ઇઝરાયલના રાજાએ હિત્તીઓના રાજાઓને અને મિસરના રાજાઓને નાણાં આપીને આપણા પર હુમલો કરવા મોકલ્યા છે.”
हिन्दी2 राजाओं ७:६
क्योंकि प्रभु ने अराम की सेना को रथों और घोड़ों की और भारी सेना की सी आहट सुनाई थी, और वे आपस में कहने लगे थे, “सुनो, इस्राएल के राजा ने हित्ती और मिस्री राजाओं को वेतन पर बुलवाया है कि हम पर चढ़ाई करें।”

In context

4If we say, ‘We will enter into the city,’ then the famine is in the city, and we will die there. If we sit still here, we also die. Now therefore come, and let’s surrender to the army of the Syrians. If they save us alive, we will live; and if they kill us, we will only die.”

5They rose up in the twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians. When they had come to the outermost part of the camp of the Syrians, behold, no man was there.

6For the Lord had made the army of the Syrians to hear the sound of chariots and the sound of horses, even the noise of a great army; and they said to one another, “Behold, the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Egyptians to attack us.”

7Therefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, their horses, and their donkeys, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.

8When these lepers came to the outermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and ate and drank, then carried away silver, gold, and clothing and went and hid it. Then they came back, and entered into another tent and carried things from there also, and went and hid them.
