2 Chronicles 25:5-7

Evangelical Heritage Version

War Against Edom

⁵ Amaziah then assembled Judah. He organized the troops on the basis of their fathers’ houses, under commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds for all of Judah and Benjamin. He took a count of all of those who were twenty years old and older. He found three hundred thousand men capable of going to war, able to handle spear and shield.

⁶ He also hired from Israel one hundred thousand powerful warriors for one hundred talents of silver.

⁷ A man of God came to him, saying, “O King, the army of Israel must not go along with you because the Lord is not with Israel. He is not with any of these descendants of Ephraim.
