He said, “Attention everyone—all of you from out of town, all you from Jerusalem, and you King Jehoshaphat— GOD ’s word: Don’t be afraid; don’t pay any mind to this vandal horde. This is God’s war, not yours. Tomorrow you’ll go after them; see, they’re already on their way up the slopes of Ziz; you’ll meet them at the end of the ravine near the wilderness of Jeruel. You won’t have to lift a hand in this battle; just stand firm, Judah and Jerusalem, and watch GOD ’s saving work for you take shape. Don’t be afraid, don’t waver. March out boldly tomorrow— GOD is with you.””
