2 Chronicles 25:7-9
Holman Christian Standard Bible
7 However, a man of God(A) came to him and said, “King, do not let Israel’s army go with you, for the Lord is not with Israel—all the Ephraimites. 8 But if you go with them, do it! Be strong for battle! But God will make you stumble before the enemy,(B) for God has the power to help(C) or to make one stumble.”
9 Then Amaziah said to the man of God, “What should I do about the 7,500 pounds[a] of silver I gave to Israel’s division?”
The man of God replied, “The Lord is able to give you much more than this.”

New International Version
7 But a man of God came to him and said, “Your Majesty, these troops from Israel(A) must not march with you, for the Lord is not with Israel—not with any of the people of Ephraim. 8 Even if you go and fight courageously in battle, God will overthrow you before the enemy, for God has the power to help or to overthrow.”(B)
9 Amaziah asked the man of God, “But what about the hundred talents I paid for these Israelite troops?”
The man of God replied, “The Lord can give you much more than that.”(C)
