H310
It came to pass after this
H1121
also, that the sons
H4124
of Moab,
H1121
and the sons
H5983
of Ammon,
H5984
and with them others besides the Ammonites,
H935 [H8804]
came
H3092
against Jehoshaphat
H4421
to battle.
2
H935 [H8799]
Then there came
H5046 [H8686]
some that told
H3092
Jehoshaphat,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H935 [H8802]
There cometh
H7227
a great
H1995
multitude
H5676
against thee from beyond
H3220
the sea
H758
on this side of Syria;
H2688
and, behold, they are in Hazazontamar,
H5872
which is Engedi.
3
H3092
And Jehoshaphat
H3372 [H8799]
feared,
H5414 [H8799]
and set
H6440
himself
H1875 [H8800]
to seek
H3068
the LORD,
H7121 [H8799]
and called
H6685
a fast
H5921
throughout
H3063
all Judah.
4
H3063
And Judah
H6908 [H8735]
gathered themselves together,
H1245 [H8763]
to ask
H3068
help of the LORD:
H5892
even from all the cities
H3063
of Judah
H935 [H8804]
they came
H1245 [H8763]
to seek
H3068
the LORD.
5
H3092
And Jehoshaphat
H5975 [H8799]
stood
H6951
in the congregation
H3063
of Judah
H3389
and Jerusalem,
H1004
in the house
H3068
of the LORD,
H6440
at the face of
H2319
the new
H2691
court,
6
H559 [H8799]
And said,
H3068
O LORD
H430
God
H1
of our fathers,
H430
art not thou God
H8064
in heaven?
H4910 [H8802]
and rulest
H4467
thou not over all the kingdoms
H1471
of the nations?
H3027
and in thine hand
H3581
is there not power
H1369
and might,
H3320 [H8692]
so that none is able to withstand thee?
7
H430
Art not thou our God,
H3423 [H8689]
who didst drive out
H3427 [H8802]
the inhabitants
H776
of this land
H6440
at the face of
H5971
thy people
H3478
Israel,
H5414 [H8799]
and give
H2233
it to the seed
H85
of Abraham
H157 [H8802]
thy friend
H5769
to the age?
8
H3427 [H8799]
And they dwelt
H1129 [H8799]
in it, and have built
H4720
thee a sanctuary
H8034
in it for thy name,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
9
H7451
If, when evil
H935 [H8799]
cometh
H2719
upon us, as the sword,
H8196
judgment,
H1698
or pestilence,
H7458
or famine,
H5975 [H8799]
we stand
H6440
at the face of
H1004
this house,
H6440
and in thy face,
H8034
(for thy name
H1004
is in this house,
H2199 [H8799]
) and cry
H6869
to thee in our tightness,
H8085 [H8799]
then thou wilt hear
H3467 [H8686]
and liberate.
10
H1121
And now, behold, the sons
H5983
of Ammon
H4124
and Moab
H2022
and mount
H8165
Seir,
H5414 [H8804]
whom thou wouldest not let
H3478
Israel
H935 [H8800]
invade,
H935 [H8800]
when they came from
H776
the land
H4714
of Egypt,
H5493 [H8804]
but they turned
H8045 [H8689]
from them, and desolated them not;
11
H1580 [H8802]
Behold, I say, how they reward
H935 [H8800]
us, to come
H1644 [H8763]
to drive us out
H3425
of thy possession,
H3423 [H8689]
which thou hast given us to possess.
12
H430
O our God,
H8199 [H8799]
wilt thou not judge
H3581
them? for we have no might
H6440
against
H7227
this great
H1995
company
H935 [H8802]
that cometh
H3045 [H8799]
against us; neither know
H587
we
H6213 [H8799]
what to do:
H5869
but our eyes are upon thee.
13
H3063
And all Judah
H5975 [H8802]
stood
H6440
at the face of
H3068
the LORD,
H1571
with
H2945
their little ones,
H802
their wives,
H1121
and their sons.
14
H3166
Then upon Jahaziel
H1121
the son
H2148
of Zechariah,
H1121
the son
H1141
of Benaiah,
H1121
the son
H3273
of Jeiel,
H1121
the son
H4983
of Mattaniah,
H3881
a Levite
H1121
of the sons
H623
of Asaph,
H7307
came the Spirit
H3068
of the LORD
H8432
in the midst
H6951
of the congregation;
15
H559 [H8799]
And he said,
H7181 [H8685]
Prick up your ears,
H3063
all Judah,
H3427 [H8802]
and ye inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem,
H4428
and thou king
H3092
Jehoshaphat,
H559 [H8804]
Thus saith
H3068
the LORD
H3372 [H8799]
to you, Be not afraid
H2865 [H8735]
nor dismayed
H6440
by reason
H7227
of this great
H1995
multitude;
H4421
for the battle
H430
is not yours, but God's.
16
H4279
To morrow
H3381 [H8798]
go ye down
H5927 [H8802]
against them: behold, they come up
H4608
by the cliff
H6732
of Ziz;
H4672 [H8804]
and ye shall find
H5490
them at the end
H5158
of the brook,
H6440
at the face of
H4057
the wilderness
H3385
of Jeruel.
17
H3898 [H8736]
Ye shall not need to fight
H2063
in this
H3320 [H8690]
battle: set
H5975 [H8798]
yourselves, stand
H7200 [H8798]
ye still, and see
H3444
the salvation
H3068
of the LORD
H3063
with you, O Judah
H3389
and Jerusalem:
H3372 [H8799]
fear
H2865 [H8735]
not, nor be dismayed;
H4279
to morrow
H3318 [H8798]
go out
H6440
against
H3068
them: for the LORD will be with you.
18
H3092
And Jehoshaphat
H6915 [H8799]
bowed
H639
his head with his nose
H776
to the earth:
H3063
and all Judah
H3427 [H8802]
and the inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem
H5307 [H8804]
fell
H6440
at the face of
H3068
the LORD,
H7812 [H8692]
worshipping
H3068
the LORD.
19
H3881
And the Levites,
H1121
of the sons
H6956
of the Kohathites,
H1121
and of the sons
H7145
of the Korhites,
H6965 [H8799]
stood up
H1984 [H8763]
to praise
H3068
the LORD
H430
God
H3478
of Israel
H1419
with a loud
H6963
voice
H4605
on high.
20
H7925 [H8686]
And they rose early
H1242
in the morning,
H3318 [H8799]
and went forth
H4057
into the wilderness
H8620
of Tekoa:
H3318 [H8800]
and as they went forth,
H3092
Jehoshaphat
H5975 [H8804]
stood
H559 [H8799]
and said,
H8085 [H8798]
Hear
H3063
me, O Judah,
H3427 [H8802]
and ye inhabitants
H3389
of Jerusalem;
H539 [H8685]
Believe
H3068
in the LORD
H430
your God,
H539 [H8735]
so shall ye be established;
H539 [H8685]
believe
H5030
his prophets,
H6743 [H8685]
so shall ye prosper.
21
H3289 [H8735]
And when he had consulted
H5971
with the people,
H5975 [H8686]
he appointed
H7891 [H8789]
singers
H3068
to the LORD,
H1984 [H8764]
and that should praise
H1927
the beauty
H6944
of holiness,
H3318 [H8800]
as they went out
H6440
at the face of
H2502 [H8803]
the army,
H559 [H8802]
and to say,
H3034 [H8685]
Praise
H3068
the LORD;
H2617
for his mercy
H5769
endureth to the age.
22
H6256
And when
H2490 [H8689]
they began
H7440
to sing
H8416
and to praise,
H3068
the LORD
H5414 [H8804]
set
H693 [H8764]
ambushes
H1121
against the sons
H5983
of Ammon,
H4124
Moab,
H2022
and mount
H8165
Seir,
H935 [H8802]
who were come
H3063
against Judah;
H5062 [H8735]
and they were smitten.
23
H1121
For the sons
H5983
of Ammon
H4124
and Moab
H5975 [H8799]
stood up
H3427 [H8802]
against the inhabitants
H2022
of mount
H8165
Seir,
H2763 [H8687]
utterly to slay
H8045 [H8687]
and desolate
H3615 [H8763]
them: and when they had made an end
H3427 [H8802]
of the inhabitants
H8165
of Seir,
H376
every one
H5826 [H8804]
helped
H4889
to decay
H7453
another.
24
H3063
And when Judah
H935 [H8804]
came
H4707 H4708 [H8677]
toward the watch tower
H4057
in the wilderness,
H6437 [H8799]
they looked
H1995
to the multitude,
H6297
and, behold, they were carcases
H5307 [H8802]
fallen
H776
to the earth,
H6413
and none escaped.
25
H3092
And when Jehoshaphat
H5971
and his people
H935 [H8799]
came
H962 [H8800]
to take away
H7998
the spoil
H4672 [H8799]
of them, they found
H7230
among them in abundance
H7399
both riches
H6297
with the carcases,
H2532
and precious
H3627
jewels,
H5337 [H8762]
which they stripped off
H369
for themselves, more than
H4853
they could carry away:
H7969
and they were three
H3117
days
H962 [H8802]
in gathering
H7998
the spoil,
H7227
it was so much.
26
H7243
And on the fourth
H3117
day
H6950 [H8738]
they congregated
H6010
themselves in the valley
H1294
of Berachah;
H1288 [H8765]
for there they blessed
H3068
the LORD:
H8034
therefore the name
H4725
of the same place
H7121 [H8804]
hath been called,
H6010
The valley
H1294
of Berachah,
H3117
to this day.
27
H7725 [H8799]
Then they returned,
H376
every man
H3063
of Judah
H3389
and Jerusalem,
H3092
and Jehoshaphat
H7218
in the front
H7725 [H8800]
of them, to go again
H3389
to Jerusalem
H8057
with joy;
H3068
for the LORD
H8055 [H8765]
had made them to rejoice
H341 [H8802]
over their enemies.
28
H935 [H8799]
And they came
H3389
to Jerusalem
H5035
with psalteries
H3658
and harps
H2689
and trumpets
H1004
to the house
H3068
of the LORD.
29
H6343
And the fear
H430
of God
H4467
was on all the kingdoms
H776
of those lands,
H8085 [H8800]
when they had heard
H3068
that the LORD
H3898 [H8738]
fought
H341 [H8802]
against the enemies
H3478
of Israel.
30
H4438
So the realm
H3092
of Jehoshaphat
H8252 [H8799]
was quiet:
H430
for his God
H5117 [H8799]
gave him rest
H5439
on all sides.
31
H3092
And Jehoshaphat
H4427 [H8799]
reigned
H3063
over Judah:
H7970
he was thirty
H2568
and five
H8141
years
H1121
old
H4427 [H8800]
when he began to reign,
H4427 [H8804]
and he reigned
H6242
twenty
H2568
and five
H8141
years
H3389
in Jerusalem.
H517
And his mother's
H8034
name
H5806
was Azubah
H1323
the daughter
H7977
of Shilhi.
32
H3212 [H8799]
And he walked
H1870
in the way
H609
of Asa
H1
his father,
H5493 [H8804]
and departed
H6213 [H8800]
not from it, doing
H3477
that which was right
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of the LORD.
33
H1116
But the high places
H5493 [H8804]
were not taken away:
H5971
for as yet the people
H3559 [H8689]
had not prepared
H3824
their hearts
H430
to the God
H1
of their fathers.
34
H3499
Now the rest
H1697
of the acts
H3092
of Jehoshaphat,
H7223
first
H314
and last,
H3789 [H8803]
behold, they are written
H1697
in the book
H3058
of Jehu
H1121
the son
H2607
of Hanani,
H5927 [H8717]
who is mentioned
H5612
in the book
H4428
of the kings
H3478
of Israel.
35
H310
And after
H3092
this Jehoshaphat
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H2266 [H8694]
joined
H274
himself with Ahaziah
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel,
H6213 [H8800]
who did
H7561 [H8689]
very wickedly:
36
H2266 [H8762]
And he joined
H6213 [H8800]
himself with him to make
H591
ships
H3212 [H8800]
to go
H8659
to Tarshish:
H6213 [H8799]
and they made
H591
the ships
H6100
in Eziongeber.
37
H461
Then Eliezer
H1121
the son
H1735
of Dodavah
H4762
of Mareshah
H5012 [H8691]
prophesied
H3092
against Jehoshaphat,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H2266 [H8692]
Because thou hast joined
H274
thyself with Ahaziah,
H3068
the LORD
H6555 [H8804]
hath broken
H4639
thy works.
H591
And the ships
H7665 [H8735]
were broken,
H6113 [H8804]
that they were not able
H3212 [H8800]
to go
H8659
to Tarshish.
