2 Kings 3:4-7

4Now Mesha the king of Moab was a sheep breeder, and he 1used to make tribute payments to the king of Israel of a hundred thousand lambs, and the wool of a hundred thousand rams.

5However, 2when King Ahab died, the king of Moab broke with the 3king of Israel.

6So King Jehoram left Samaria for battle 4at that time and mustered all Israel.

7Then he went and sent word to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has broken away from me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?” And he said, “I will go up. 56Consider me yours, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”
