II Chronicles 20 (kjv)

It came to pass after this^H310 also, that the children^H1121 of Moab^H4124, and the children^H1121 of Ammon^H5983, and with them other beside the Ammonites^H5984, came^H935 against Jehoshaphat^H3092 to battle^H4421.²Then there came^H935 some that told^H5046 Jehoshaphat^H3092, saying^H559, There cometh^H935 a great^H7227 multitude^H1995 against thee from beyond^H5676 the sea^H3220 on this side Syria^H758; and, behold, they be in Hazazontamar^H2688, which is Engedi^H5872.³And Jehoshaphat^H3092 feared^H3372, and set^H5414 himself^H6440 to seek^H1875 the LORD^H3068, and proclaimed^H7121 a fast^H6685 throughout^H5921 all Judah^H3063.⁴And Judah^H3063 gathered themselves together^H6908, to ask^H1245 help of the LORD^H3068: even out of all the cities^H5892 of Judah^H3063 they came^H935 to seek^H1245 the LORD^H3068.

⁵And Jehoshaphat^H3092 stood^H5975 in the congregation^H6951 of Judah^H3063 and Jerusalem^H3389, in the house^H1004 of the LORD^H3068, before^H6440 the new^H2319 court^H2691,⁶And said^H559, O LORD^H3068 God^H430 of our fathers^H1, art not thou God^H430 in heaven^H8064? and rulest^H4910 not thou over all the kingdoms^H4467 of the heathen^H1471? and in thine hand^H3027 is there not power^H3581 and might^H1369, so that none is able to withstand^H3320 thee?⁷Art not thou our God^H430, who didst drive out^H3423 the inhabitants^H3427 of this land^H776 before^H6440 thy people^H5971 Israel^H3478, and gavest^H5414 it to the seed^H2233 of Abraham^H85 thy friend^H157 for ever^H5769?⁸And they dwelt^H3427 therein, and have built^H1129 thee a sanctuary^H4720 therein for thy name^H8034, saying^H559,⁹If, when evil^H7451 cometh^H935 upon us, as the sword^H2719, judgment^H8196, or pestilence^H1698, or famine^H7458, we stand^H5975 before^H6440 this house^H1004, and in thy presence^H6440, (for thy name^H8034 is in this house^H1004,) and cry^H2199 unto thee in our affliction^H6869, then thou wilt hear^H8085 and help^H3467.¹⁰And now, behold, the children^H1121 of Ammon^H5983 and Moab^H4124 and mount^H2022 Seir^H8165, whom thou wouldest not let^H5414 Israel^H3478 invade^H935, when they came out^H935 of the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714, but they turned^H5493 from them, and destroyed^H8045 them not;¹¹Behold, I say, how they reward^H1580 us, to come^H935 to cast us out^H1644 of thy possession^H3425, which thou hast given us to inherit^H3423.¹²O our God^H430, wilt thou not judge^H8199 them? for we have no might^H3581 against^H6440 this great^H7227 company^H1995 that cometh^H935 against us; neither know^H3045 we^H587 what to do^H6213: but our eyes^H5869 are upon thee.¹³And all Judah^H3063 stood^H5975 before^H6440 the LORD^H3068, with^H1571 their little ones^H2945, their wives^H802, and their children^H1121.

¹⁴Then upon Jahaziel^H3166 the son^H1121 of Zechariah^H2148, the son^H1121 of Benaiah^H1141, the son^H1121 of Jeiel^H3273, the son^H1121 of Mattaniah^H4983, a Levite^H3881 of the sons^H1121 of Asaph^H623, came the Spirit^H7307 of the LORD^H3068 in the midst^H8432 of the congregation^H6951;¹⁵And he said^H559, Hearken^H7181 ye, all Judah^H3063, and ye inhabitants^H3427 of Jerusalem^H3389, and thou king^H4428 Jehoshaphat^H3092, Thus saith^H559 the LORD^H3068 unto you, Be not afraid^H3372 nor dismayed^H2865 by reason^H6440 of this great^H7227 multitude^H1995; for the battle^H4421 is not yours, but God's^H430.¹⁶To morrow^H4279 go ye down^H3381 against them: behold, they come up^H5927 by the cliff^H4608 of Ziz^H6732; and ye shall find^H4672 them at the end^H5490 of the brook^H5158, before^H6440 the wilderness^H4057 of Jeruel^H3385.¹⁷Ye shall not need to fight^H3898 in this^H2063 battle: set^H3320 yourselves, stand^H5975 ye still, and see^H7200 the salvation^H3444 of the LORD^H3068 with you, O Judah^H3063 and Jerusalem^H3389: fear^H3372 not, nor be dismayed^H2865; to morrow^H4279 go out^H3318 against^H6440 them: for the LORD^H3068 will be with you.¹⁸And Jehoshaphat^H3092 bowed^H6915 his head with his face^H639 to the ground^H776: and all Judah^H3063 and the inhabitants^H3427 of Jerusalem^H3389 fell^H5307 before^H6440 the LORD^H3068, worshipping^H7812 the LORD^H3068.¹⁹And the Levites^H3881, of the children^H1121 of the Kohathites^H6956, and of the children^H1121 of the Korhites^H7145, stood up^H6965 to praise^H1984 the LORD^H3068 God^H430 of Israel^H3478 with a loud^H1419 voice^H6963 on high^H4605.

²⁰And they rose early^H7925 in the morning^H1242, and went forth^H3318 into the wilderness^H4057 of Tekoa^H8620: and as they went forth^H3318, Jehoshaphat^H3092 stood^H5975 and said^H559, Hear^H8085 me, O Judah^H3063, and ye inhabitants^H3427 of Jerusalem^H3389; Believe^H539 in the LORD^H3068 your God^H430, so shall ye be established^H539; believe^H539 his prophets^H5030, so shall ye prosper^H6743.²¹And when he had consulted^H3289 with the people^H5971, he appointed^H5975 singers^H7891 unto the LORD^H3068, and that should praise^H1984 the beauty^H1927 of holiness^H6944, as they went out^H3318 before^H6440 the army^H2502, and to say^H559, Praise^H3034 the LORD^H3068; for his mercy^H2617 endureth for ever^H5769.

²²And when^H6256 they began^H2490 to sing^H7440 and to praise^H8416, the LORD^H3068 set^H5414 ambushments^H693 against the children^H1121 of Ammon^H5983, Moab^H4124, and mount^H2022 Seir^H8165, which were come^H935 against Judah^H3063; and they were smitten^H5062.²³For the children^H1121 of Ammon^H5983 and Moab^H4124 stood up^H5975 against the inhabitants^H3427 of mount^H2022 Seir^H8165, utterly to slay^H2763 and destroy^H8045 them: and when they had made an end^H3615 of the inhabitants^H3427 of Seir^H8165, every one^H376 helped^H5826 to destroy^H4889 another^H7453.²⁴And when Judah^H3063 came^H935 toward the watch tower^{H4707 H4708} in the wilderness^H4057, they looked^H6437 unto the multitude^H1995, and, behold, they were dead bodies^H6297 fallen^H5307 to the earth^H776, and none escaped^H6413.²⁵And when Jehoshaphat^H3092 and his people^H5971 came^H935 to take away^H962 the spoil^H7998 of them, they found^H4672 among them in abundance^H7230 both riches^H7399 with the dead bodies^H6297, and precious^H2532 jewels^H3627, which they stripped off^H5337 for themselves, more than^H369 they could carry away^H4853: and they were three^H7969 days^H3117 in gathering^H962 of the spoil^H7998, it was so much^H7227.

²⁶And on the fourth^H7243 day^H3117 they assembled^H6950 themselves in the valley^H6010 of Berachah^H1294; for there they blessed^H1288 the LORD^H3068: therefore the name^H8034 of the same place^H4725 was called^H7121, The valley^H6010 of Berachah^H1294, unto this day^H3117.²⁷Then they returned^H7725, every man^H376 of Judah^H3063 and Jerusalem^H3389, and Jehoshaphat^H3092 in the forefront^H7218 of them, to go again^H7725 to Jerusalem^H3389 with joy^H8057; for the LORD^H3068 had made them to rejoice^H8055 over their enemies^H341.²⁸And they came^H935 to Jerusalem^H3389 with psalteries^H5035 and harps^H3658 and trumpets^H2689 unto the house^H1004 of the LORD^H3068.²⁹And the fear^H6343 of God^H430 was on all the kingdoms^H4467 of those countries^H776, when they had heard^H8085 that the LORD^H3068 fought^H3898 against the enemies^H341 of Israel^H3478.³⁰So the realm^H4438 of Jehoshaphat^H3092 was quiet^H8252: for his God^H430 gave him rest^H5117 round about^H5439.

³¹And Jehoshaphat^H3092 reigned^H4427 over Judah^H3063: he was thirty^H7970 and five^H2568 years^H8141 old^H1121 when he began to reign^H4427, and he reigned^H4427 twenty^H6242 and five^H2568 years^H8141 in Jerusalem^H3389. And his mother's^H517 name^H8034 was Azubah^H5806 the daughter^H1323 of Shilhi^H7977.³²And he walked^H3212 in the way^H1870 of Asa^H609 his father^H1, and departed^H5493 not from it, doing^H6213 that which was right^H3477 in the sight^H5869 of the LORD^H3068.³³Howbeit the high places^H1116 were not taken away^H5493: for as yet the people^H5971 had not prepared^H3559 their hearts^H3824 unto the God^H430 of their fathers^H1.³⁴Now the rest^H3499 of the acts^H1697 of Jehoshaphat^H3092, first^H7223 and last^H314, behold, they are written^H3789 in the book^H1697 of Jehu^H3058 the son^H1121 of Hanani^H2607, who is mentioned^H5927 in the book^H5612 of the kings^H4428 of Israel^H3478.

³⁵And after^H310 this did Jehoshaphat^H3092 king^H4428 of Judah^H3063 join^H2266 himself with Ahaziah^H274 king^H4428 of Israel^H3478, who did^H6213 very wickedly^H7561:³⁶And he joined^H2266 himself with him to make^H6213 ships^H591 to go^H3212 to Tarshish^H8659: and they made^H6213 the ships^H591 in Eziongeber^H6100.³⁷Then Eliezer^H461 the son^H1121 of Dodavah^H1735 of Mareshah^H4762 prophesied^H5012 against Jehoshaphat^H3092, saying^H559, Because thou hast joined^H2266 thyself with Ahaziah^H274, the LORD^H3068 hath broken^H6555 thy works^H4639. And the ships^H591 were broken^H7665, that they were not able^H6113 to go^H3212 to Tarshish^H8659.
