2 Chronicles 20:20-22
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Victory and Plunder
20 In the morning they got up early and went out to the wilderness of Tekoa. As they were about to go out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Hear me, Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Believe in Yahweh your God, and you will be established;(A) believe in His prophets, and you will succeed.” 21 Then he consulted with the people and appointed some to sing for the Lord and some to praise the splendor of His holiness.(B) When they went out in front of the armed forces, they kept singing:[a]
Give thanks to the Lord,
for His faithful love endures forever.(C)
22 The moment they began their shouts and praises, the Lord set an ambush(D) against the Ammonites, Moabites, and the inhabitants of Mount Seir who came to fight against Judah, and they were defeated.
