2 Chronicles 20:3-13
3And JehoshaphatH3092 fearedH3372, and setH5414 himself to seekH1875 unto Jehovah; and he proclaimedH7121 a fastH6685 throughout all JudahH3063. 4And JudahH3063 gatheredH6908 themselves togetherH6908, to seekH1245 help of Jehovah: even out of all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 they cameH935 to seekH1245 Jehovah.
5And JehoshaphatH3092 stoodH5975 in the assemblyH6951 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389, in the houseH1004 of Jehovah, before the newH2319 courtH2691; 6and he saidH559, O Jehovah, the GodH430 of our fathersH1, art not thou GodH430 in heavenH8064? and art not thou rulerH4910 over all the kingdomsH4467 of the nationsH1471? and in thy handH3027 is power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee. 7Didst not thou, O our GodH430, drive out the inhabitantsH3427 of this landH776 before thy peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, and giveH5414 it to the seedH2233 of AbrahamH85 thy friendH157 for everH5769? 8And they dweltH3427 therein, and have builtH1129 thee a sanctuaryH4720 therein for thy nameH8034, sayingH559, 9If evilH7451 comeH935 upon us, the swordH2719, judgment, or pestilenceH1698, or famineH7458, we will standH5975 before this houseH1004, and before thee (for thy nameH8034 is in this houseH1004), and cryH2199 unto thee in our affliction, and thou wilt hearH8085 and saveH3467. 10And nowH6258, behold, the children of AmmonH5983 and MoabH4124 and mount SeirH8165, whom thou wouldest not let IsraelH3478 invade, when they cameH935 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, but they turnedH5493 asideH5493 from them, and destroyedH8045 them not; 11behold, how they reward us, to comeH935 to cast us out of thy possessionH3423, which thou hast given us to inheritH3423. 12O our GodH430, wilt thou not judgeH8199 them? for we have no might against this greatH7227 company that cometh against us; neither knowH3045 we what to do: but our eyesH5869 are upon thee. 13And all JudahH3063 stoodH5975 before Jehovah, with their littleH2945 onesH2945, their wivesH802, and their children.
