In context — 2 Chronicles 35:21
But he sent messengers to him, saying, “What is there between me and you, king of Judah? I am not coming against you today but against the house with which I am at war; and God has commanded me to hurry. Cease for your own sake from opposing God, who is with me, so that He does not destroy you.”
