2 Chronicles 20:2-7
New International Version
2 Some people came and told Jehoshaphat, “A vast army(A) is coming against you from Edom,[a] from the other side of the Dead Sea. It is already in Hazezon Tamar(B)” (that is, En Gedi).(C) 3 Alarmed, Jehoshaphat resolved to inquire of the Lord, and he proclaimed a fast(D) for all Judah. 4 The people of Judah(E) came together to seek help from the Lord; indeed, they came from every town in Judah to seek him.
5 Then Jehoshaphat stood up in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem at the temple of the Lord in the front of the new courtyard 6 and said:
“Lord, the God of our ancestors,(F) are you not the God who is in heaven?(G) You rule over all the kingdoms(H) of the nations. Power and might are in your hand, and no one can withstand you.(I) 7 Our God, did you not drive out the inhabitants of this land(J) before your people Israel and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend?(K)
