2 Chronicles 20:25-30

25When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their spoil, they found among them, in great numbers, goods, clothing, and precious things, which they took for themselves until they could carry no more. They were three days in taking the spoil, it was so much.

26On the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Beracah, for there they blessed the Lord. Therefore the name of that place has been called the Valley of Beracah to this day.

27Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat at their head, returning to Jerusalem with joy, for the Lord had made them rejoice over their enemies.

28They came to Jerusalem with harps and lyres and trumpets, to the house of the Lord.

29And the fear of God came on all the kingdoms of the countries when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel.

30So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet, for his God gave him rest all around.
