against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let not man prevail
against thee.

Asa cried out to the LORD his God: “O LORD, there is no one besides You to help the powerless
against the mighty. Help us, O LORD our God, for we
rely on You, and in Your name we have come
against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God. Do not let a mere
mortal prevail

Jehoshaphat king of Judah, “Will you go with me
against Ramoth-
gilead?” And

Ramoth-
gilead to battle, or shall I
forbear? And they said, Go up; for God will deliver it into the king’s hand.

against Ramoth-
gilead, or should we
refrain?” “Go up,” they replied, “and God will deliver it into the hand of the king.”

Ramoth-
gilead to battle, or shall I
forbear? And he said, Go ye up, and
prosper, and they shall be delivered into your hand.
When Micaiah arrived, the king asked him, “Micaiah, should we go to war
against Ramoth-
gilead, or should we
refrain?” “Go up and triumph,” Micaiah replied, “for they will be given into your hand.”
Again he said, Therefore hear the word of the LORD; I saw the LORD sitting upon his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.
Micaiah continued, “Therefore hear the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing on His right and on His left.
Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil against thee.
So you see, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouths of these prophets of yours, and the LORD has pronounced
disaster against you.”
And it came to pass, when the captains of the
chariots saw
Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but
Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.
When the
chariot commanders saw
Jehoshaphat, they said, “This is the king of Israel!” So they turned to fight
against him, but
Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him. God drew them away from him.
For it came to pass, that, when the captains of the
chariots perceived that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back
again from pursuing him.
And when the
chariot commanders saw that he was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.

chariot against the Syrians until the even: and about the time of the sun going down he died.

raged throughout that day, and the king of Israel
propped himself up in his
chariot facing the Arameans until evening. And at
sunset he died.

again through the people from Beer-
sheba to mount Ephraim, and brought them back unto the LORD God of their fathers.

And what cause
soever shall come to you of your brethren that dwell in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, ye shall even
warn them that they
trespass not
against the LORD, and so wrath come upon you, and upon your brethren: this do, and ye shall not
trespass.
For every dispute that comes before you from your brothers who dwell in their cities—whether it regards
bloodshed or some other
violation of law, commandments, statutes, or ordinances—you are to
warn them, so that they will not
incur guilt before the LORD and wrath will not come upon you and your brothers. Do this, and you will not
incur guilt.
It came to pass after this also, that the children of Moab, and the children of
Ammon, and with them other beside the
Ammonites, came
against Jehoshaphat to battle.
After this, the Moabites and
Ammonites, together with some of the Meunites, came to make war
against Jehoshaphat.
Then there came some that told
Jehoshaphat, saying, There cometh a great multitude
against thee from beyond the sea on this side Syria; and, behold, they be Hazazon-tamar, which is En-gedi.
Then some men came and told
Jehoshaphat, “A vast army is coming
against you from
Edom, from beyond the Sea; they are already in Hazazon-tamar” (that is, En-gedi).
And said, O LORD God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and rulest not thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen? and in thine hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to
withstand thee?
and said, “O LORD, God of our fathers, are You not the God who is in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand, and no one can stand against You.
O our God,
wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might
against this great company that cometh
against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee.
Our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this vast army that comes against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.”
To
morrow go ye down
against them: behold, they come up by the
cliff of Ziz; and ye shall find them at the end of the
brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel.
Tomorrow you are to march down
against them. You will see them coming up the
Ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the valley facing the Wilderness of Jeruel.
Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set
yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to
morrow go out
against them: for the LORD will be with you.
You need not fight this battle. Take up your positions, stand firm, and see the salvation of the LORD on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid or discouraged. Go out and face them
tomorrow, for the LORD is with you.’”
And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments
against the children of
Ammon, Moab, and mount
Seir, which were come
against Judah; and they were
smitten.
The moment they began their shouts and praises, the LORD set ambushes
against the men of
Ammon, Moab, and Mount
Seir who had come
against Judah, and they were defeated.
For the children of
Ammon and Moab stood up
against the inhabitants of mount
Seir, utterly to
slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of
Seir, every one helped to destroy another.
The
Ammonites and Moabites rose up
against the inhabitants of Mount
Seir,
devoting them to destruction. And when they had made an end to the inhabitants of
Seir, they helped to destroy one another.
Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and
Jehoshaphat in the
forefront of them, to go
again to Jerusalem with joy; for the LORD had made them to
rejoice over their enemies.
Then all the men of Judah and Jerusalem, with
Jehoshaphat at their head, returned
joyfully to Jerusalem, for the LORD had made them
rejoice over their enemies.

against the hand of Judah and appointed their own king.
So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. The same time also did
Libnah revolt from under his hand; because he had
forsaken the LORD God of his fathers.
So to this day
Edom has been in rebellion
against the hand of Judah. Likewise,
Libnah rebelled
against his rule at the same time, because Jehoram had
forsaken the LORD, the God of his fathers.
Moreover the LORD
stirred up
against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of the Arabians, that were near the Ethiopians:

brake into it, and carried away all the substance that was found in the king’s house, and his sons also, and his wives; so that there was never a son left him, save
Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.
So they went to war
against Judah, invaded it, and carried off all the possessions found in the king’s palace, along with his sons and wives; not a son was left to him except
Jehoahaz, his youngest.
He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of
Ahab king of Israel to war
against Hazael king of Syria at
Ramoth-
gilead: and the Syrians
smote Joram.
And he returned to be
healed in
Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at
Ramah, when he fought with
Hazael king of Syria. And
Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of
Ahab at
Jezreel, because he was sick.
so he returned to
Jezreel to recover from the wounds they had inflicted on him at
Ramah when he fought
against Hazael king of
Aram. Then
Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to

Now it came to pass, that at what time the chest was brought unto the king’s office by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, the king’s
scribe and the high priest’s officer came and
emptied the chest, and took it, and carried it to his place
again. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.
Whenever the chest was brought by the Levites to the king’s overseers and they saw that there was a large amount of money, the royal

In the spring, the army of
Aram went to war

For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men, and the LORD delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had
forsaken the LORD God of their fathers. So they executed judgment
against Joash.
Although the
Aramean army had come with only a few men, the LORD delivered into their hand a very great army. Because Judah had
forsaken the LORD, the God of their fathers, judgment was executed on
Joash.
