SONS OF MOAB AND AMMON COME AGAINST YAH SHAPHAT
And so be it, after this, the sons of Moab and the sons of Ammon and of the Ammoniy with them, come against Yah Shaphat to war. 2 And some come who tell Yah Shaphat, saying, A great multitude comes against you from beyond the sea on this side Aram; and behold, they are in Haseson Tamar - En Gedi. 3 And Yah Shaphat awes and gives his face to seek Yah Veh; and calls a fast over all Yah Hudah: 4 and Yah Hudah gathers to seek Yah Veh - even from all the cities of Yah Hudah they come to seek Yah Veh. 5 And Yah Shaphat stands in the congregation of Yah Hudah and Yeru Shalem in the house of Yah Veh at the face of the new court, 6 and says, O Yah Veh Elohim of our fathers, Are you not Elohim in the heavens? Yes, you reign over all the sovereigndoms of the goyim! And force and might are in your hand so that no one is able to withstand you! 7 Are not you our Elohim who dispossessed the settlers of this land at the face of your people Yisra El? And gave it to the seed of Abraham your beloved eternally? 8 And they settle therein and build you a holies for your name, saying, 9 If, evil comes on us, as the sword, judgment or pestilence or famine we stand at the face of this house and at your face - for your name is in this house and cry to you in our tribulation; and you hear and save. 10 And now, behold, the sons of Ammon and Moab and mount Seir, whom you gave not Yisra El to invade when they came from the land of Misrayim - for they turned aside from them and desolated them not: 11 - and behold, how they deal us, to come to expel us from the possession you gave us to possess. 12 O our Elohim, judge you them not? We have no force at the face of this great multitude who comes against us; and we know not what to work: but our eyes are on you. 13 And all Yah Hudah stands at the face of Yah Veh, with their toddlers, their women and their sons: 14 and the Spirit of Yah Veh comes upon Yachazi El the son of Zechar Yah the son of Bena Yah the son of Yei El the son of Mattan Yah - a Leviy of the sons of Asaph midst the congregation; 15 and he says, Hearken, all Yah Hudah, and you, settlers of Yeru Shalem, and you, sovereign Yah Shaphat: thus says Yah Veh to you: Neither awe nor terrify at the face of this great multitude; for the war is not to you, but to Elohim: 16 tomorrow descend against them: behold, they ascend by the ascent of Sis; and you find them at the end of the wadi at the face of the wilderness of Yeru El. 17 Fight not in this: Set yourselves! Stand! See the salvation of Yah Veh with you, O Yah Hudah and Yeru Shalem: neither awe nor terrify: tomorrow go out at their face and Yah Veh is with you. 18 And Yah Shaphat bows with nostrils to the earth: and all Yah Hudah and the settlers of Yeru Shalem fall at the face of Yah Veh, and prostrate to Yah Veh: 19 and the Leviym of the sons of the Qehathiy and of the sons of the Qorachiy rise to halal Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El with a great voice on high. 20 And they start early in the morning and go to the wilderness of Teqoha: and as they go Yah Shaphat stands and says, Hear me, O Yah Hudah and you settlers of Yeru Shalem; Trust in Yah Veh your Elohim, amenable; trust his prophets, prosper. 21 And he counsels with the people, and he stands singers to Yah Veh to halal the majesty of holiness as they go from the face of the equipped saying, Spread hands to Yah Veh; for his mercy eternal. 22 And at the time they begin to shout and to halal Yah Veh lurks against the sons of Ammon, Moab and mount Seir, who come against Yah Hudah; and they smite one another: 23 and the sons of Ammon and Moab stand against the settlers of mount Seir to devote and desolate them: and they finish off the settlers of Seir, and each man helps to ruin his friend. 24 And Yah Hudah comes to Mispeh in the wilderness, and they face the multitude, and behold, their carcases fallen to the earth; and none escape. 25 And Yah Shaphat and his people come to plunder the spoil; and among the carcases, they find in abundance, both acquisitions and desirable instruments which they strip for themselves, without burden: and for three days they plunder the spoil - it is so much: 26 and on the fourth day they congregate in the valley of Berachah/Blessing; and there they bless Yah Veh: so they call the name of the place, The valley of Berachah/Blessing, to this day. 27 Then they return - every man of Yah Hudah and Yeru Shalem with Yah Shaphat at their head - return to Yeru Shalem with cheer; for Yah Veh cheers them over their enemies: 28 and they come to Yeru Shalem with bagpipes and harps and trumpets to the house of Yah Veh: 29 and the fear of Elohim is on all the sovereigndoms of those lands, when they hear that Yah Veh fights against the enemies of Yisra El:
