2 Chronicles 13:12
13:12 Now look, God is with us as our leader. His priests are ready to blow the trumpets to signal the attack against you. 1 You Israelites, don’t fight against the Lord God of your ancestors, 2 for you will not win!”
2 Chronicles 20:15
20:15 He said: “Pay attention, all you people of Judah, 3 residents of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat! This is what the Lord says to you: ‘Don’t be afraid and don’t panic 4 because of this huge army! For the battle is not yours, but God’s.
1 tn Heb “and his priests and the trumpets of the war alarm [are ready] to sound out against you.”
2 tn Heb “fathers” (also in v. 18).
3 tn Heb “all Judah.” The words “you people of” are supplied in the translation for clarity. The Hebrew text uses the name “Judah” by metonymy for the people of Judah. Unlike the previous instance in v. 13 where infants, wives, and children are mentioned separately, this reference appears to include them all.
4 tn Or perhaps “don’t get discouraged.”
