⁹ Only ^(A)do not rebel against the Lord; and do not ^(B)fear the people of the land, for they will be our ^[a]prey. Their ^[b]protection has been removed from them, and the Lord is with us; do not fear them.”

¹² Now behold, God is with us at our head and ^(A)His priests with the signal trumpets to sound the alarm against you. O sons of Israel, do not fight against the Lord God of your fathers, for you will not succeed.”
