Dynamic Translation He said, “Pay attention, everyone in Judah, all who live in Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat: This is what the LORD {Yahweh, Defender in Crisis} says to you—Do not be afraid or panic because of this huge crowd, for this fight does not belong to you, but to God {Elohim, Protector of His People}.” |
