2 Chronicles 25:6-16

6He also hired a hundred thousand valiant warriors from Israel for 1a hundred talents of silver. 7But 2a man of God came to him saying, “O king, do not let the army of Israel come with you, for the Lord is not with Israel nor with any of the sons of Ephraim. 8But if you do go, do it, be strong for the battle; yet God will 3bring you down before the enemy, 4for God has the power to help and to 5bring down.” 9Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what are we to do about the 6hundred talents which I have given to the troops of Israel?” And the man of God answered, “7The Lord has much more to give you than this.” 10Then Amaziah 8dismissed the troops which came to him from Ephraim, to go home; so their anger burned against Judah, and they returned 9home in fierce anger.

11Now Amaziah gathered his courage and led his people out, and went to 10the Valley of Salt, and struck and killed ten thousand of the sons of Seir. 12The sons of Judah also captured ten thousand alive and brought them to the top of the cliff, and threw them down from the top of the cliff so that they were all dashed to pieces. 13But the 11troops whom Amaziah sent back, those not going with him to battle, raided the cities of Judah from Samaria to Beth-horon, and struck and killed three thousand of them, and plundered a large amount of spoils.

14Now after Amaziah came from slaughtering the Edomites, 12he brought the gods of the sons of Seir and set them up as his gods. Then he bowed down before them and burned incense to them. 15So the anger of the Lord burned against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet who said to him, “Why have you sought the gods of the people 13who have not saved their own people from your hand?” 16As he was talking with him, 14the king said to him, “Have we appointed you to be a royal counselor? Stop! Why should 15you be put to death?” Then the prophet stopped and said, “I know that God has planned to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my counsel.”
