It was reported to King Solomon: “Joab has fled to the tent of the LORD and is now beside the altar.” So Solomon sent Benaiah son of Jehoiada, saying, “Go, strike him down!”

Thus the Arameans had arisen and fled at twilight, abandoning their tents and horses and donkeys. The camp was intact, and they had run for their lives.

You will know that your tent is secure, and find nothing amiss when inspecting your home.

Your enemies will be clothed in shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more.”

The tents of robbers are safe, and those who provoke God are secure—those who carry their god in their hands.

For the company of the godless will be barren, and fire will consume the tents of bribery.

Total darkness is reserved for his treasures. A fire unfanned will consume him and devour what is left in his tent.
