Exegesis
The prohibition al-tilachamu {אַל־תִּלָּחֲמוּ | ʾal-til-lā-ḥă-mû} carries immediate force; although the verb governs im-YHWH {עִם־יְהוָה | ʿim-yə-hō-wāh} ‘with the LORD’, in this conflict setting the preposition marks hostile engagement and is naturally rendered “against.”
Root and etymology
h-y-hheh–yod–heh
“be, exist”
In context — 2 Chronicles 13:12
And look, the God is with us at the head, with His priests and the trumpets of the alarm shout to sound an alarm against you. Sons of Israel, do not fight against the LORD , the God of your fathers, for you will not succeed.
