2 Chronicles 25:7-9
New American Standard Bible
7 But (A)a man of God came to him saying, “O king, do not let the army of Israel come with you, for the Lord is not with Israel nor with any of the sons of Ephraim. 8 But if you do go, do it, be strong for the battle; yet God will [a]bring you down before the enemy, (B)for God has the power to help and to [b]bring down.” 9 Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what are we to do about the [c]hundred talents which I have given to the troops of Israel?” And the man of God answered, “(C)The Lord has much more to give you than this.”

New International Version
7 But a man of God came to him and said, “Your Majesty, these troops from Israel(A) must not march with you, for the Lord is not with Israel—not with any of the people of Ephraim. 8 Even if you go and fight courageously in battle, God will overthrow you before the enemy, for God has the power to help or to overthrow.”(B)
9 Amaziah asked the man of God, “But what about the hundred talents I paid for these Israelite troops?”
The man of God replied, “The Lord can give you much more than that.”(C)
