This is what the Lord says: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast number,(B) for the battle is not yours, but God’s.(C) 16 Tomorrow, go down against them. You will see them coming up the Ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the valley facing the Wilderness of Jeruel. 17 You do not have to fight this battle. Position yourselves, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord.(D) He is with you, Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid or discouraged.(E) Tomorrow, go out to face them, for the Lord is with you.’”(F)
