Good News Translation
20 They put their trust in God and prayed to him for help, and God answered their prayers and made them victorious over the Hagrites and their allies. 21 They captured from the enemy 50,000 camels, 250,000 sheep, and 2,000 donkeys, and took 100,000 prisoners of war. 22 They killed many of the enemy, because the war was God's will. And they went on living in that territory until the exile.[a]

1 Chronicles 5:20-22
New International Version
20 They were helped(A) in fighting them, and God delivered the Hagrites and all their allies into their hands, because they cried(B) out to him during the battle. He answered their prayers, because they trusted(C) in him. 21 They seized the livestock of the Hagrites—fifty thousand camels, two hundred fifty thousand sheep and two thousand donkeys. They also took one hundred thousand people captive, 22 and many others fell slain, because the battle(D) was God’s. And they occupied the land until the exile.(E)
