It came to pass after 310 this also, [that] the children 1121 of Moab, 4124 and the children 1121 of Ammon, 5983 and with them [other] beside the Ammonites, 5984 came 935-1 against Jehoshaphat 3092 to battle. 4421 |
| 2 |
Then there came 935-4 some that told 5046-55 Jehoshaphat, 3092 saying, 559-2 There cometh 935-6 a great 7227 multitude 1995 against thee from beyond 5676 the sea 3220 on this side Syria; 758 and, behold, they [be] in Hazazontamar, 2688 which [is] Engedi. 5872 |
| 3 |
And Jehoshaphat 3092 feared, 3372-4 and set 5414-4 himself 6440 to seek 1875-2 the LORD, 3068 and proclaimed 7121-4 a fast 6685 throughout 5921 all Judah. 3063 |
| 4 |
And Judah 3063 gathered themselves together, 6908-11 to ask 1245-15 [help] of the LORD: 3068 even out of all the cities 5892 of Judah 3063 they came 935-1 to seek 1245-15 the LORD. 3068 |
| 5 |
And Jehoshaphat 3092 stood 5975-4 in the congregation 6951 of Judah 3063 and Jerusalem, 3389 in the house 1004 of the LORD, 3068 before 6440 the new 2319 court, 2691 |
| 6 |
And said, 559-4 O LORD 3068 God 430 of our fathers, 1 [art] not thou God 430 in heaven? 8064 and rulest 4910-6 [not] thou over all the kingdoms 4467 of the heathen? 1471 and in thine hand 3027 [is there not] power 3581 and might, 1369 so that none is able to withstand 3320-99 thee? |
| 7 |
[Art] not thou our God, 430 [who] didst drive out 3423-52 the inhabitants 3427-6 of this land 776 before 6440 thy people 5971 Israel, 3478 and gavest 5414-4 it to the seed 2233 of Abraham 85 thy friend 157-6 for ever? 5769 |
| 8 |
And they dwelt 3427-4 therein, and have built 1129-4 thee a sanctuary 4720 therein for thy name, 8034 saying, 559-2 |
| 9 |
If, [when] evil 7451 cometh 935-4 upon us, [as] the sword, 2719 judgment, 8196 or pestilence, 1698 or famine, 7458 we stand 5975-4 before 6440 this house, 1004 and in thy presence, 6440 (for thy name 8034 [is] in this house,) 1004 and cry 2199-4 unto thee in our affliction, 6869 then thou wilt hear 8085-4 and help. 3467-55 |
| 10 |
And now, behold, the children 1121 of Ammon 5983 and Moab 4124 and mount 2022 Seir, 8165 whom thou wouldest not let 5414-1 Israel 3478 invade, 935-2 when they came 935-2 out of the land 776 of Egypt, 4714 but they turned 5493-1 from them, and destroyed 8045-52 them not; |
| 11 |
Behold, [I say, how] they reward 1580-6 us, to come 935-2 to cast us out 1644-15 of thy possession, 3425 which thou hast given us to inherit. 3423-52 |
| 12 |
O our God, 430 wilt thou not judge 8199-4 them? for we have no might 3581 against 6440 this great 7227 company 1995 that cometh 935-6 against us; neither know 3045-4 we 587 what to do: 6213-4 but our eyes 5869 [are] upon thee. |
| 13 |
And all Judah 3063 stood 5975-6 before 6440 the LORD, 3068 with 1571 their little ones, 2945 their wives, 802 and their children. 1121 |
| 14 |
Then upon Jahaziel 3166 the son 1121 of Zechariah, 2148 the son 1121 of Benaiah, 1141 the son 1121 of Jeiel, 3273 the son 1121 of Mattaniah, 4983 a Levite 3881 of the sons 1121 of Asaph, 623 came the Spirit 7307 of the LORD 3068 in the midst 8432 of the congregation; 6951 |
| 15 |
And he said, 559-4 Hearken 7181-54 ye, all Judah, 3063 and ye inhabitants 3427-6 of Jerusalem, 3389 and thou king 4428 Jehoshaphat, 3092 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 unto you, Be not afraid 3372-4 nor dismayed 2865-11 by reason 6440 of this great 7227 multitude; 1995 for the battle 4421 [is] not yours, but God's. 430 |
| 16 |
To morrow 4279 go ye down 3381-3 against them: behold, they come up 5927-6 by the cliff 4608 of Ziz; 6732 and ye shall find 4672-1 them at the end 5490 of the brook, 5158 before 6440 the wilderness 4057 of Jeruel. 3385 |
| 17 |
Ye shall not [need] to fight 3898-9 in this 2063 [battle]: set 3320-100 yourselves, stand 5975-3 ye [still], and see 7200-3 the salvation 3444 of the LORD 3068 with you, O Judah 3063 and Jerusalem: 3389 fear 3372-4 not, nor be dismayed; 2865-11 to morrow 4279 go out 3318-3 against 6440 them: for the LORD 3068 [will be] with you. |
| 18 |
And Jehoshaphat 3092 bowed his head 6915-4 with [his] face 639 to the ground: 776 and all Judah 3063 and the inhabitants 3427-6 of Jerusalem 3389 fell 5307-1 before 6440 the LORD, 3068 worshipping 7812-99 the LORD. 3068 |
| 19 |
And the Levites, 3881 of the children 1121 of the Kohathites, 6956 and of the children 1121 of the Korhites, 7145 stood up 6965-4 to praise 1984-15 the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel 3478 with a loud 1419 voice 6963 on high. 4605 |
| 20 |
And they rose early 7925-55 in the morning, 1242 and went forth 3318-4 into the wilderness 4057 of Tekoa: 8620 and as they went forth, 3318-2 Jehoshaphat 3092 stood 5975-1 and said, 559-4 Hear 8085-3 me, O Judah, 3063 and ye inhabitants 3427-6 of Jerusalem; 3389 Believe 539-54 in the LORD 3068 your God, 430 so shall ye be established; 539-11 believe 539-54 his prophets, 5030 so shall ye prosper. 6743-54 |
| 21 |
And when he had consulted 3289-11 with the people, 5971 he appointed 5975-55 singers 7891-35 unto the LORD, 3068 and that should praise 1984-18 the beauty 1927 of holiness, 6944 as they went out 3318-2 before 6440 the army, 2502-7 and to say, 559-6 Praise 3034-54 the LORD; 3068 for his mercy 2617 [endureth] for ever. 5769 |
| 22 |
And when 6256 they began 2490-52 to sing 7440 and to praise, 8416 the LORD 3068 set 5414-1 ambushments 693-18 against the children 1121 of Ammon, 5983 Moab, 4124 and mount 2022 Seir, 8165 which were come 935-6 against Judah; 3063 and they were smitten. 5062-11 |
| 23 |
For the children 1121 of Ammon 5983 and Moab 4124 stood up 5975-4 against the inhabitants 3427-6 of mount 2022 Seir, 8165 utterly to slay 2763-53 and destroy 8045-53 [them]: and when they had made an end 3615-15 of the inhabitants 3427-6 of Seir, 8165 every one 376 helped 5826-1 to destroy 4889 another. 7453 |
| 24 |
And when Judah 3063 came 935-1 toward the watch tower 4707|4708 in the wilderness, 4057 they looked 6437-4 unto the multitude, 1995 and, behold, they [were] dead bodies 6297 fallen 5307-6 to the earth, 776 and none escaped. 6413 |
| 25 |
And when Jehoshaphat 3092 and his people 5971 came 935-4 to take away 962-2 the spoil 7998 of them, they found 4672-4 among them in abundance 7230 both riches 7399 with the dead bodies, 6297 and precious 2532 jewels, 3627 which they stripped off 5337-17 for themselves, more than 369 they could carry away: 4853 and they were three 7969 days 3117 in gathering 962-6 of the spoil, 7998 it was so much. 7227 |
| 26 |
And on the fourth 7243 day 3117 they assembled 6950-8 themselves in the valley 6010 of Berachah; 1293|1294 for there they blessed 1288-14 the LORD: 3068 therefore the name 8034 of the same place 4725 was called, 7121-1 The valley 6010 of Berachah, 1293|1294 unto this day. 3117 |
| 27 |
Then they returned, 7725-4 every man 376 of Judah 3063 and Jerusalem, 3389 and Jehoshaphat 3092 in the forefront 7218 of them, to go again 7725-2 to Jerusalem 3389 with joy; 8057 for the LORD 3068 had made them to rejoice 8055-14 over their enemies. 341-6 |
| 28 |
And they came 935-4 to Jerusalem 3389 with psalteries 5035 and harps 3658 and trumpets 2689 unto the house 1004 of the LORD. 3068 |
| 29 |
And the fear 6343 of God 430 was on all the kingdoms 4467 of [those] countries, 776 when they had heard 8085-2 that the LORD 3068 fought 3898-8 against the enemies 341-6 of Israel. 3478 |
| 30 |
So the realm 4438 of Jehoshaphat 3092 was quiet: 8252-4 for his God 430 gave him rest 5117-4 round about. 5439 |
| 31 |
And Jehoshaphat 3092 reigned 4427-4 over Judah: 3063 [he was] thirty 7970 and five 2568 years 8141 old 1121 when he began to reign, 4427-2 and he reigned 4427-1 twenty 6242 and five 2568 years 8141 in Jerusalem. 3389 And his mother's 517 name 8034 [was] Azubah 5806 the daughter 1323 of Shilhi. 7977 |
| 32 |
And he walked 3212-4 in the way 1870 of Asa 609 his father, 1 and departed 5493-1 not from it, doing 6213-2 [that which was] right 3477 in the sight 5869 of the LORD. 3068 |
| 33 |
Howbeit the high places 1116 were not taken away: 5493-1 for as yet the people 5971 had not prepared 3559-52 their hearts 3824 unto the God 430 of their fathers. 1 |
| 34 |
Now the rest 3499 of the acts 1697 of Jehoshaphat, 3092 first 7223 and last, 314 behold, they [are] written 3789-7 in the book 1697 of Jehu 3058 the son 1121 of Hanani, 2607 who [is] mentioned 5927-90 in the book 5612 of the kings 4428 of Israel. 3478 |
| 35 |
And after 310 this did Jehoshaphat 3092 king 4428 of Judah 3063 join 2266-98 himself with Ahaziah 274 king 4428 of Israel, 3478 who did 6213-2 very wickedly: 7561-52 |
| 36 |
And he joined 2266-17 himself with him to make 6213-2 ships 591 to go 3212-2 to Tarshish: 8659 and they made 6213-4 the ships 591 in Eziongeber. 6100 |
| 37 |
Then Eliezer 461 the son 1121 of Dodavah 1735 of Mareshah 4762 prophesied 5012-101 against Jehoshaphat, 3092 saying, 559-2 Because thou hast joined 2266-99 thyself with Ahaziah, 274 the LORD 3068 hath broken 6555-1 thy works. 4639 And the ships 591 were broken, 7665-11 that they were not able 6113-1 to go 3212-2 to Tarshish. 8659 |
