19 Indeed you say that you have defeated the Edomites, and your heart is lifted up to (A)boast. Stay at home now; why should you meddle with trouble, that you should fall—you and Judah with you?”
20 But Amaziah would not heed, for (B)it came from God, that He might give them into the hand of their enemies, because they (C)sought the gods of Edom. 21 So Joash king of Israel went out; and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced one another at (D)Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.
