2 Chronicles 20:25-28

Contemporary English Version

²⁵So Jehoshaphat and his troops went into the camp to carry away everything of value. They found a large herd of livestock,^[a] a lot of equipment, clothes,^[b] and other valuable things. It took them three days to carry it all away, and there was still some left over.

²⁶Then on the fourth day, everyone came together in Beracah Valley and sang praises to the Lord. That's why that place was called Praise Valley.^[c]

^27-28Jehoshaphat led the crowd back to Jerusalem. And as they marched, they played harps and blew trumpets. They were very happy because the Lord had given them victory over their enemies, so when they reached the city, they went straight to the temple.
