Believe{H539}{(H8685)} in the LORD{H3068} your God{H430}, so shall ye be established{H539}{(H8735)}; believe{H539}{(H8685)} his prophets{H5030}, so shall ye prosper{H6743}{(H8685)}. 21 And when he had consulted{H3289}{(H8735)} with the people{H5971}, he appointed{H5975}{(H8686)} singers{H7891}{(H8789)} unto the LORD{H3068}, and that should praise{H1984}{(H8764)} the beauty{H1927} of holiness{H6944}, as they went out{H3318}{(H8800)} before{H6440} the army{H2502}{(H8803)}, and to say{H559}{(H8802)}, Praise{H3034}{(H8685)} the LORD{H3068}; for his mercy{H2617} endureth for ever{H5769}. 22 And when{H6256} they began{H2490}{(H8689)} to sing{H7440} and to praise{H8416}, the LORD{H3068} set{H5414}{(H8804)} ambushments{H693}{(H8764)} against the children{H1121} of Ammon{H5983}, Moab{H4124}, and mount{H2022} Seir{H8165}, which were come{H935}{(H8802)} against Judah{H3063}; and they were smitten{H5062}{(H8735)}. 23 For the children{H1121} of Ammon{H5983} and Moab{H4124} stood up{H5975}{(H8799)} against the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of mount{H2022} Seir{H8165}, utterly to slay{H2763}{(H8687)} and destroy{H8045}{(H8687)} them: and when they had made an end{H3615}{(H8763)} of the inhabitants{H3427}{(H8802)} of Seir{H8165}, every one{H376} helped{H5826}{(H8804)} to destroy{H4889} another{H7453}. 24 And when Judah{H3063} came{H935}{(H8804)} toward the watch tower{H4707}{(H8677)}{H4708} in the wilderness{H4057}, they looked{H6437}{(H8799)} unto the multitude{H1995}, and, behold, they were dead bodies{H6297} fallen{H5307}{(H8802)} to the earth{H776}, and none escaped{H6413}. 25 And when Jehoshaphat{H3092} and his people{H5971} came{H935}{(H8799)} to take away{H962}{(H8800)} the spoil{H7998} of them, they found{H4672}{(H8799)} among them in abundance{H7230} both riches{H7399} with the dead bodies{H6297}, and precious{H2532} jewels{H3627}, which they stripped off{H5337}{(H8762)} for themselves, more than{H369} they could carry away{H4853}: and they were three{H7969} days{H3117} in gathering{H962}{(H8802)} of the spoil{H7998}, it was so much{H7227}. 26 And on the fourth{H7243} day{H3117} they assembled{H6950}{(H8738)} themselves in the valley{H6010} of Berachah{H1294}; for there they blessed{H1288}{(H8765)} the LORD{H3068}: therefore the name{H8034} of the same place{H4725} was called{H7121}{(H8804)}, The valley{H6010} of Berachah{H1294}, unto this day{H3117}. 27 Then they returned{H7725}{(H8799)}, every man{H376} of Judah{H3063} and Jerusalem{H3389}, and Jehoshaphat{H3092} in the forefront{H7218} of them, to go again{H7725}{(H8800)} to Jerusalem{H3389} with joy{H8057}; for the LORD{H3068} had made them to rejoice{H8055}{(H8765)} over their enemies{H341}{(H8802)}. 28 And they came{H935}{(H8799)} to Jerusalem{H3389} with psalteries{H5035} and harps{H3658} and trumpets{H2689} unto the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}. 29 And the fear{H6343} of God{H430} was on all the kingdoms{H4467} of those countries{H776}, when they had heard{H8085}{(H8800)} that the LORD{H3068} fought{H3898}{(H8738)} against the enemies{H341}{(H8802)} of Israel{H3478}. 30 So the realm{H4438} of Jehoshaphat{H3092} was quiet{H8252}{(H8799)}: for his God{H430} gave him rest{H5117}{(H8799)} round about{H5439}.
