2 Chronicles 20:20-26
20And they roseH7925 earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and wentH3318 forthH3318 intoH3318 the wildernessH4057 of TekoaH8620: and as they wentH3318 forthH3318, JehoshaphatH3092 stoodH5975 and saidH559, HearH8085 meH3318, O JudahH3063, and ye inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; believeH539 in the LORDH3068 your GodH430, soH3318 shall ye be establishedH539; believeH539 his prophetsH5030, soH3318 shall ye prosperH6743.
21And when he had takenH3318 counselH3289 with the peopleH5971, he appointedH5975 them that should singH7891 unto the LORDH3068, and praiseH1984 the beauty of holinessH6944, as they wentH3318 outH3318 beforeH6440 the armyH5971, and sayH559, GiveH3034 thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068; for his mercyH3068 endureth for everH5769.
22And when they beganH2490 to sing and to praiseH8416, the LORDH3068 setH5414 liers in waitH693 againstH5921 the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, MoabH4124, and mountH2022 SeirH8165, whichH2022 were comeH935 againstH5921 JudahH3063; and they were smitten.
23For the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 and MoabH4124 stoodH5975 upH5975 againstH5921 the inhabitantsH3427 of mountH2022 SeirH8165, utterlyH4889 to slay and destroyH8045 them: and when they had made an endH3615 of the inhabitantsH3427 of SeirH8165, everyH376 one helpedH5826 to destroyH8045 anotherH7453.
24And when JudahH3063 cameH935 to the watch-tower of the wildernessH4057, they lookedH6437 uponH5921 the multitudeH1995; and, beholdH2005, they were deadH6297 bodiesH6297 fallenH5307 to the earthH776, and there were noneH369 that escapedH6413.
25And when JehoshaphatH3092 and his peopleH5971 cameH935 to takeH962 the spoilH7998 of them, they foundH4672 among them in abundanceH7230 both riches and deadH6297 bodiesH6297, and preciousH2530 jewelsH3627, whichH1931 they strippedH5337 offH853 for themselves, moreH369 thanH7227 they couldH5971 carryH4853 awayH5337: and they were threeH7969 daysH3117 in takingH935 of the spoilH7998, it was soH1961 muchH7230.
26And on the fourthH7243 dayH3117 they assembledH6950 themselvesH5921 in the valleyH6010 of BeracahH1294; for there they blessedH1288 the LORDH3068: therefore the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 was calledH7121 The valleyH6010 of BeracahH1294, unto this dayH3117.
