2 Chronicles 25:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶ He also hired 100,000 fighting men from Israel. He had to pay them almost four tons of silver.

⁷ But a man of God came to him. He said, “Your Majesty, these troops from Israel must not march out with you. The Lord is not with Israel. He isn’t with any of the people of Ephraim. ⁸ Go and fight bravely in battle if you want to. But God will destroy you right in front of your enemies. God has the power to help you or destroy you.”
