17 And he took camels and asses for their carriages, a very great number; and sheep and oxen and goats without number for their provision:
18 and plenty of victual for every man of the army, and very much gold and silver out of the king's house.
19 Then he went forth and all his power to go before king Nebuchadnez´zar in the voyage, and to cover all the face of the earth westward with their chariots, and horsemen, and their chosen footmen.
20 A great number also sundry countries came with them like locusts, and like the sand of the earth: for the multitude was without number.
21 And they went forth of Nin´eveh three days' journey toward the plain of Bec´tileth, and pitched from Bec´tileth near the mountain which is at the left hand of the upper Cili´cia.
22 Then he took all his army, his footmen, and horsemen, and chariots, and went from thence into the hill country;
23 and destroyed Put and Lud, and spoiled all the children of Rasses, and the children of Ish´ma-el, which were toward the wilderness at the south of the land of the Chel´lians.
