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.
24 Then he went over Euphra´tes, and went through Mesopota´mi-a, and destroyed all the high cities that were upon the river Arbon´ai, till ye come to the sea.
25 And he took the borders of Cili´cia, and killed all that resisted him, and came to the borders of Japheth, which were toward the south, over against Arabia.
