Context — David Defeats Ammon and Aram
10And he placed the rest of the troops under the command of his brother Abishai, who arrayed them against the Ammonites.
11“If the Arameans are too strong for me,” said Joab, “then you will come to my rescue. And if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will come to your rescue.
12Be strong and let us fight bravely for our people and for the cities of our God. May the LORD do what is good in His sight.”
13So Joab and his troops advanced to fight the Arameans, who fled before him. 14When the Ammonites saw that the Arameans had fled, they too fled before Abishai, and they entered the city. So Joab returned from fighting against the Ammonites and came to Jerusalem.Cross References

2 Samuel 10:12 Summary
This verse, 2 Samuel 10:12, is about being strong and brave when faced with challenges, and trusting that God will do what is good. It reminds us that we are not just fighting for ourselves, but for the people and things that belong to God. Just like the Israelites, we can trust in God's power and protection, as seen in Psalm 23:4, which says, 'Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.' By trusting in God, we can have the courage to face any situation, knowing that He is in control and will work everything out for our good, as promised in Romans 8:28.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the context of 2 Samuel 10:12?
This verse is part of a larger narrative about King David's military campaigns, specifically the battle against the Ammonites and the Arameans, as seen in 2 Samuel 10:1-14. The verse highlights Joab's encouragement to his troops before the battle.
What does it mean to 'fight bravely for our people and for the cities of our God'?
In this context, it means to courageously defend the nation of Israel and the cities that belong to God, trusting in His power and protection, as expressed in Psalm 20:7-8, which says, 'Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.'
How does this verse relate to trusting in God?
The phrase 'May the LORD do what is good in His sight' indicates a deep trust in God's sovereignty and goodness, similar to the trust expressed in Proverbs 3:5-6, which says, 'Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.'
What can we learn from Joab's statement about being strong and fighting bravely?
We can learn the importance of courage and trust in the face of adversity, as well as the value of recognizing God's ultimate control over all situations, as seen in Romans 8:28, which says, 'And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.'

Matthew Poole's Commentary on 2 Samuel 10:12
For our people; for the preservation of ourselves and all our brethren from that utter ruin which our enemies design for us. Our war is not vainly undertaken to enlarge our empire or glory, but for our own just and necessary defence; and therefore we may hope for God’ s blessing and assistance in it. For the cities of our God; which are devoted to his worship and service, and therefore he will plead their cause against his enemies. The Lord do that which seemeth him good; let us do our parts, and quietly refer ourselves and the event to God’ s good pleasure, which we have no reason to distrust.
Trapp's Commentary on 2 Samuel 10:12
2 Samuel 10:12 Be of good courage, and let us play the men for our people, and for the cities of our God: and the LORD do that which seemeth him good.Ver. 12. Be of good courage, and let us play the men.] A brave speech, and such as than which a better could not have been uttered by any captain, saith Pellican. That of Hunniades to his soldiers, when ready to join battle with the Turks, is a very good one. Of them both it may be well said, as one did once of Julius Caesar, Si acta eius penitus ignorasses, per linguam tamen militem esse diceres; Had you never heard of their acts, yet you might have known them to have been good soldiers by their very speeches. And the Lord do that which seemeth him good.] Det victoriam cui volet. Let him dispose of the victory as he pleaseth; but let us not be wanting in good courage, whose cause is so good. It is an excellent saying of Demosthenes, the Greek orator, Dειμεντουςαγαθουςανδρας, &c. It behoveth good men to make good attempts, and therein to hope the best, but to bear valiantly what event soever God shall order them. Non potest vox duce dignior cogitari. Turk.
Hist., fol. 272.
Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Samuel 10:12
(12) Be of good courage, and let us play the men.—Literally, Be strong and let us strengthen ourselves. The same phrase is translated in Chronicles, “Be of good courage and let us behave ourselves valiantly.” (Compare 1 Samuel 4:9.) Joab felt that the battle was a critical one, and on it depended the welfare and even the safety of “our people” and “the cities of our God.” The latter expression is in recognition of the fact that the whole land belonged to God, who allowed the use of it to His people. The Lord do.—Rather, The Lord will do. Joab’s courage rose here to that highest point which is marked by the full trust that whatever may be the result, it will be that which seems best to Infinite wisdom and love.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 2 Samuel 10:12
Verse 12. Be of good courage] This is a very fine military address, and is equal to any thing in ancient or modern times. Ye fight pro aris et focis; for every good, sacred and civil; for God, for your families, and for your country.
Cambridge Bible on 2 Samuel 10:12
12. Be of good courage, and let us play the men] Lit. Be strong and let us shew ourselves strong: the same words as those translated in 1 Chronicles 19:13 “Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly.” for the cities of our God] As the people of Israel were the people of the Lord, so the land which He had given them was His, and its cities were His. They were fighting “the Lord’s battles,” that these cities might not fall into heathen hands and be given over to the worship of heathen gods. Cp. 1 Samuel 17:36; 1 Samuel 17:47; 1 Samuel 18:17. the Lord do that which seemeth him good] Better, Jehovah will do, &c.: an expression of trust combined with resignation to God’s will. Cp. 1 Samuel 3:18.
Barnes' Notes on 2 Samuel 10:12
For the cities of our God - This rather indicates that the relief of Medeba was one of the immediate objects in view, and consequently that at this time Medeba was still in the possession of the Reubenites.
Whedon's Commentary on 2 Samuel 10:12
12. Play the men — Show yourselves courageous and brave. The cities of our God — The cities God had given Israel. The children of Israel were taught to regard themselves and their land as the property of God. Leviticus 25:23.
