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.
