2 Chronicles 20:22 in Context — 2 Chronicles 20

20 E quando se levantaram pela manhã, saíram pelo deserto de Tecoa. E enquanto eles saíam, Josafá estando em pé, disse: Ouvi-me, Judá e moradores de Jerusalém. Crede no SENHOR vosso Deus, e sereis seguros; crede em seus profetas, e sereis prosperados.

21 E havido conselho com o povo, pôs a alguns que cantassem ao SENHOR, e louvassem na formosura da santidade, enquanto que saía a gente armada, e dissessem: Glorificai ao SENHOR, porque sua misericórdia é para sempre.

22 E quando começaram com clamor e com louvor, pôs o SENHOR contra os filhos de Amom, de Moabe, e do monte de Seir, as emboscadas deles mesmos que vinham contra Judá, e mataram-se os uns aos outros:

23 Pois os filhos de Amom e Moabe se levantaram contra os do monte de Seir, para matá-los e destruí-los; e quando houveram acabado aos do monte de Seir, cada qual ajudou à destruição de seu companheiro.

24 E logo que veio Judá ao posto de observação do deserto, olharam até a multidão; mas eis que jaziam eles em terra mortos, que ninguém havia escapado.
