2 Chronicles 20:14-20
14Then in the midstH8432 of the assemblyH6951 1the SpiritH7307 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 upon JahazielH3166 the sonH1121 of ZechariahH2148, the sonH1121 of BenaiahH1141, the sonH1121 of JeielH3262, the sonH1121 of MattaniahH4983, the LeviteH3881 of the sonsH1121 of AsaphH623; 15and he saidH559, “ListenH7181, allH3605 JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 and KingH4428 JehoshaphatH3092: thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 to you, ‘2Do not fearH3372 or be dismayedH2865 becauseH4480H6440 of thisH2088 greatH7227 multitudeH1995, for 3the battleH4421 is not yours but God’sH430. 16TomorrowH4279 goH3381 downH3381 againstH5921 them. BeholdH2009, they will comeH5927 up by the ascentH4608 of ZizH6732, and you will findH4672 them at the endH5490 of the valleyH5158 in frontH6440 of the wildernessH4057 of JeruelH3385. 17You need not fightH3898 in thisH2088 battle; stationH3320 yourselves, 4standH5975 and seeH7200 the salvationH3444 of the LordH3068 on your behalfH5973, O JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389.’ Do not fearH3372 or be dismayedH2865; tomorrowH4279 goH3318 out to faceH6440 them, 5for the LordH3068 is with you.”
18JehoshaphatH3092 6bowedH6915 his head with his faceH639 to the groundH776, and allH3605 JudahH3063 and the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389 fellH5307 downH5307 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, worshipingH7812 the LordH3068. 19The LevitesH3881, from the sonsH1121 of the KohathitesH6956 and of the sonsH1121 of the KorahitesH7145, stoodH6965 up to praiseH1984 the LordH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, with a veryH4605 loudH1419 voiceH6963.
20They roseH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242 and wentH3318 out to the wildernessH4057 of TekoaH8620; and when they wentH3318 out, JehoshaphatH3092 stoodH5975 and saidH559, “ListenH8085 to me, O JudahH3063 and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, 7putH539 your trustH539 in the LordH3068 your GodH430 and you will be establishedH539. PutH539 your trustH539 in His prophetsH5030 and succeedH6743.”
