War Against Judah

20 Now it happened after this, that the sons of Moab and the sons of Ammon, together with some of the [a](A)Ammonites, came to make war against Jehoshaphat. 2 Then some came and told Jehoshaphat, saying, “A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea, out of [b]Aram and behold, they are in (B)Hazazon-tamar (that is Engedi).” 3 And Jehoshaphat was afraid and [c](C)set his face to seek Yahweh, and (D)called for a fast throughout all Judah. 4 So Judah gathered together to (E)seek help from Yahweh; they even came from all the cities of Judah to seek Yahweh.

Jehoshaphat Defeats the Moabites and Ammonites

Footnotes

  1. 2 Chronicles 20:1 The translation follows the reading of the Greek Old Testament. The Hebrew text reads Ammonites in two places.
  2. 2 Chronicles 20:2 That is, the Dead Sea
  3. 2 Chronicles 20:2 The reading Edom is supported by some Hebrew and Latin manuscripts. The context also requires Edom. Many Hebrew and Greek manuscripts have the reading Aram in this verse. In Hebrew script the words Aram and Edom look alike.
