16 ¶ And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drewforth the Syrians that were beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer went before them.
3 And say to the land of Israel, Thus saith the Lord; Behold, I am against thee, and will drawforth my sword out of his sheath, and will cut off from thee the righteous and the wicked.

5 That all flesh may know that I the Lord have drawnforth my sword out of his sheath: it shall not return any more.
9 And I beheld his sword, and I drew it forth from the sheath thereof; and the hilt thereof was of pure gold, and the workmanship thereof was exceedingly fine, and I saw that the blade thereof was of the most precious steel.
