2 Chronicles 20:14. Then the Spirit of the LORD* came upon Jahaziel the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaf, in the midst of the congregation. 15. And he said, Listen, all Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem and you king Jehoshaphat, Thus says the LORD* to you, Do not be in awe! Do not be dismayed because of this great multitude! For the battle is not yours, but God’s. 16. Tomorrow go down against them! Behold, they will come up by the hill of Ziz and you will find them at the end of the brook, before the wilderness of Jeruel. 17. You will not fight in this battle: set yourselves! Stand still and see the deliverance/salvation of the LORD* with you, (Exod. 14:13) O Judah and Jerusalem! Do not be in awe! Do not be dismayed! Tomorrow go out against them, for the LORD* will be with you.
