1 It came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS after H310 this H3651 also , that the children H1121 CMP of Moab H4124 , and the children H1121 W-CMP of Ammon H5983 , and with H5973 them other beside H4480 the Ammonites H5984 , came H935 VQQ3MP against H5921 PREP Jehoshaphat H3092 to battle H4421 .
2 Then there came H935 W-VQY3MP some that told H5046 Jehoshaphat H3092 , saying H559 L-VQFC , There cometh H935 VQPMS a great H7227 AMS multitude H1995 NMS against H5921 PREP-2MS thee from beyond H5676 M-CMS the sea H3220 on this side Syria H758 ; and , behold H2009 , they be in Hazazon H2688 - tamar , which H1931 PPRO-3FS is En H5872 - gedi .
3 And Jehoshaphat H3092 feared H3372 , and set H5414 W-VQQ3MS himself H6440 CMP-3MS to seek H1875 the LORD H3068 L-EDS , and proclaimed H7121 W-VQY3MS a fast H6685 NMS throughout H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS Judah H3063 .
4 And Judah H3063 gathered themselves together H6908 , to ask H1245 help of H4480 the LORD H3068 : even H1571 CONJ out of all H3605 M-CMS the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 they came H935 VQQ3MP to seek H1245 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
5 And Jehoshaphat H3092 stood H5975 W-VQY3MS in the congregation H6951 of Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 , in the house H1004 B-CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , before H6440 L-CMP the new H2319 court H2691 ,
6 And said H559 W-VQY3MS , O LORD H3068 EDS God H430 NAME-4MP of our fathers H1 , art not H3808 I-NADV thou H859 God H430 EDP in heaven H8064 BD-NMP ? and rulest H4910 not thou H859 W-PPRO-2MS over all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the heathen H1471 D-NMP ? and in thine hand H3027 is there not power H3581 CMS and might H1369 W-NFS , so that none H369 W-NPAR is able to withstand H3320 thee ?

8 And they dwelt H3427 W-VQY3MP therein , and have built H1129 thee a sanctuary H4720 therein for thy name H8034 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
9 If H518 PART , when evil H7451 AFS cometh H935 VQY2MS upon H5921 PREP-1MP us , as the sword H2719 GFS , judgment H8196 , or pestilence H1698 , or famine H7458 , we stand H5975 before H6440 L-CMP this H2088 D-PMS house H1004 D-NMS , and in thy presence H6440 L-CMP , ( CONJ for CONJ thy name H8034 is in this H2088 D-PMS house H1004 , ) and cry H2199 unto H413 PREP-2MS thee in our affliction H6869 , then thou wilt hear H8085 and help H3467 .
10 And now H6258 W-ADV , behold H2009 IJEC , the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 and Moab H4124 and mount H2022 Seir H8165 LFS , whom H834 RPRO thou wouldest not H3808 ADV let H5414 VQQ2MS-2FS Israel H3478 invade H935 L-VQFC , when they came H935 out of the land H776 M-NFS of Egypt H4714 , but H3588 CONJ they turned H5493 VQQ3MP from them , and destroyed H8045 them not H3808 W-NADV ;
11 Behold H2009 IJEC , I say , how they H1992 PPRO-3MP reward H1580 us , to come H935 L-VQFC to cast us out H1644 of thy possession H3425 , which H834 RPRO thou hast given us to inherit H3423 .
12 O our God H430 , wilt thou not H3808 ADV judge H8199 them ? for H3588 CONJ we have no H369 NPAR might H3581 CMS against H6440 L-CMP this H2088 D-PMS great H7227 company H1995 that cometh H935 against H5921 PREP-1MP us ; neither H3808 NADV know H3045 we H587 what H4100 IGAT to do H6213 VQY1MP : but H3588 CONJ our eyes H5869 are upon H5921 PREP-2MS thee .
13 And all H3605 W-CMS Judah H3063 stood H5975 VQPMP before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS , with H1571 CONJ their little ones H2945 , their wives H802 , and their children H1121 .
14 Then upon H5921 PREP-3MS Jahaziel H3166 the son H1121 of Zechariah H2148 NMP , the son H1121 of Benaiah H1141 , the son H1121 of Jeiel H3273 , the son H1121 of Mattaniah H4983 , a Levite H3881 of H4480 PREP the sons H1121 of Asaph H623 , came H1961 VQQ3FS the Spirit H7307 NFS of the LORD H3068 EDS in the midst H8432 B-NMS of the congregation H6951 ;
15 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Hearken H7181 ye , all H3605 CMS Judah H3063 , and ye inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 , and thou king H4428 Jehoshaphat H3092 , Thus H3541 saith H559 W-VQY3MS the LORD H3068 EDS unto you , Be not afraid H3372 nor H408 NPAR dismayed H2865 by reason of M-CMP this H2088 D-PMS great H7227 multitude H1995 ; for H3588 CONJ the battle H4421 is not H3808 NADV yours , but H3588 CONJ God H430 L-NMP \'s .
16 Tomorrow H4279 NMS go ye down H3381 against H5921 PREP-3MP them : behold H2009 , they come up H5927 by the cliff H4608 of Ziz H6732 ; and ye shall find H4672 them at the end H5490 of the brook H5158 , before H6440 CMP the wilderness H4057 of Jeruel H3385 .
17 Ye shall not H3808 NADV need to fight H3898 in this H2063 battle : set yourselves H3320 , stand H5975 ye still , and see H7200 the salvation H3444 of the LORD H3068 EDS with H5973 PREP-3MP you , O Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 : fear H3372 not H408 NPAR , nor H408 ADV be dismayed H2865 ; tomorrow H4279 NMS go out H3318 against H6440 L-CMP-3MP them : for the LORD H3068 W-EDS will be with H5973 you .
18 And Jehoshaphat H3092 bowed his head H6915 with his face H639 NMD to the ground H776 NFS-3FS : and all H3605 W-CMS Judah H3063 and the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 fell H5307 before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS , worshiping H7812 the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
19 And the Levites H3881 , of the children H1121 of H4480 PREP the Kohathites H6956 , and of H4480 PREP the children H1121 of the Korhites H7145 , stood up H6965 to praise H1984 the LORD H3068 L-EDS God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 with a loud H1419 AMS voice H6963 B-NMS on high H4605 .
20 And they rose early H7925 in the morning H1242 , and went forth H3318 W-VQY3MP into the wilderness H4057 of Tekoa H8620 : and as they went forth H3318 , Jehoshaphat H3092 stood H5975 and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Hear H8085 me , O Judah H3063 , and ye inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389 ; Believe H539 in the LORD H3068 your God H430 , so shall ye be established H539 ; believe H539 his prophets H5030 , so shall ye prosper H6743 .
21 And when he had consulted H3289 with H413 PREP the people H5971 , he appointed H5975 W-VHY3MS singers H7891 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS , and that should praise H1984 the beauty H1927 of holiness H6944 , as they went out H3318 before H6440 L-CMP the army H2502 , and to say H559 , Praise H3034 the LORD H3068 L-EDS ; for H3588 CONJ his mercy H2617 endureth forever H5769 L-NMS .
22 And when H6256 they began H2490 to sing H7440 and to praise H8416 , the LORD H3068 EDS set H5414 VQQ3MS ambushments H693 against H5921 PREP the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 , Moab H4124 , and mount H2022 Seir H8165 LFS , which were come H935 against Judah H3063 ; and they were smitten H5062 .
23 For the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 and Moab H4124 stood up H5975 against H5921 PREP the inhabitants H3427 of mount H2022 CMS Seir H8165 LFS , utterly to slay H2763 and destroy H8045 them : and when they had made an end H3615 of the inhabitants H3427 of Seir H8165 LFS , every one H376 NMS helped H5826 to destroy H4889 another H7453 .
24 And when Judah H3063 came H935 VQPMS toward H5921 PREP the watch tower H4707 in the wilderness H4057 , they looked H6437 unto H413 PREP the multitude H1995 , and , behold H2009 , they were dead bodies H6297 fallen H5307 to the earth H776 NFS-3FS , and none H369 W-NPAR escaped H6413 .
25 And when Jehoshaphat H3092 and his people H5971 came H935 W-VQY3MS to take away H962 the spoil H7998 of them , they found H4672 among them in abundance H7230 LD-NMS both riches H7399 with the dead bodies H6297 , and precious H2530 jewels H3627 , which they stripped off H5337 for themselves , more than H369 they could carry away H4853 : and they were H1961 W-VQY3MP three H7969 days H3117 NMP in gathering H962 of the spoil H7998 , it H1931 PPRO-3MS was so much H7227 AMS .
26 And on the fourth H7243 day H3117 they assembled themselves H6950 in the valley H6010 of Berachah H1294 ; for H3588 CONJ there H8033 ADV they blessed H1288 the LORD H3068 EDS : therefore H5921 PREP the name H8034 CMS of the same H1931 D-PPRO-3MS place H4725 D-NMS was called H7121 , The valley H6010 CMS of Berachah H1294 , unto H5704 PREP this day H3117 D-NMS .
27 Then they returned H7725 W-VUY3MP , every H3605 NMS man H376 NMS of Judah H3063 and Jerusalem H3389 , and Jehoshaphat H3092 in the forefront H7218 of them , to go again H7725 to H413 PREP Jerusalem H3389 with joy H8057 B-NFS ; for H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS had made them to rejoice H8055 over their enemies H341 .
28 And they came H935 W-VQY3MP to Jerusalem H3389 with psalteries H5035 and harps H3658 and trumpets H2689 unto H413 PREP the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
29 And the fear H6343 NMS of God H430 EDP was H1961 W-VQY3MS on H5921 PREP all H3605 NMS the kingdoms H4467 of those countries H776 , when they had heard H8085 that H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS fought H3898 against H5973 PREP the enemies H341 of Israel H3478 LMS .
30 So the realm H4438 CFP of Jehoshaphat H3092 was quiet H8252 : for his God H430 CMP-3MS gave him rest H5117 round about H5439 .
31 And Jehoshaphat H3092 reigned H4427 over H5921 PREP Judah H3063 : he was thirty H7970 MMP and five H2568 years H8141 NFS old H1121 when he began to reign H4427 , and he reigned H4427 twenty H6242 W-MMP and five H2568 years H8141 NFS in Jerusalem H3389 . And his mother H517 GFS-3MS \'s name H8034 W-CMS was Azubah H5806 the daughter H1323 CFS of Shilhi H7977 .
32 And he walked H1980 W-VQY3MS in the way H1870 B-NMS of Asa H609 his father H1 CMS-3MS , and departed H5493 not H3808 W-NPAR from H4480 M-PREP-3FS it , doing H6213 L-VQFC that which was right H3477 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
33 Howbeit H389 ADV the high places H1116 were not H3808 NADV taken away H5493 VQQ3MP : for as yet H5750 W-ADV the people H5971 had not H3808 NADV prepared H3559 their hearts H3824 unto the God H430 of their fathers H1 .
34 Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 CMP of Jehoshaphat H3092 , first H7223 and last H314 , behold H2009 , they are written H3789 in the book H1697 of Jehu H3058 the son H1121 CMS of Hanani H2607 , who H834 RPRO is mentioned H5927 in H5921 PREP the book H5612 CMS of the kings H4428 CMP of Israel H3478 LMS .
35 And after H310 this H3651 did Jehoshaphat H3092 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 join himself H2266 with H5973 PREP Ahaziah H274 king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 , who H1931 PPRO-3MS did very wickedly H7561 :
36 And he joined H2266 himself with H5973 PREP-3MS him to make H6213 L-VQFC ships H591 CFP to go H1980 L-VQFC to Tarshish H8659 : and they made H6213 W-VQY3MP the ships H591 CFP in Ezion H6100 - geber .
37 Then Eliezer H461 the son H1121 of Dodavah H1735 of Mareshah H4762 prophesied H5012 against H5921 PREP Jehoshaphat H3092 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Because thou hast joined thyself H2266 with H5973 PREP Ahaziah H274 , the LORD H3068 EDS hath broken H6555 VQQ3MS thy works H4639 . And the ships H591 CFP were broken H7665 , that they were not able H6113 VQQ3MP to go H1980 L-VQFC to H413 PREP Tarshish H8659 .
