Exegesis

The conjunction velo {וְלֹא | wə·lōʾ} ‘and not’ with the Niphal nilchamu {נִלְחֲמ֖וּ | nil·ḥa·mū} ‘they fought’ forms a negative result clause, while im-yehoshaphat {עִם־יְהוֹשָׁפָט | ʿim-yĕ·hō·šā·p̄āṯ} ‘with Jehoshaphat’ specifies the party spared from conflict. The English rendering preserves the Hebrew emphasis on divine initiative followed by its effect on the surrounding kingdoms.
