20. Early the next morning, as everyone got ready to leave for the desert near Tekoa, Jehoshaphat stood up and said, “Listen my friends, if we trust the Lord God and believe what these prophets have told us, the Lord will help us, and we will be successful.”

21. Then he explained his plan and appointed men to march in front of the army and praise the Lord for his holy power by singing:“Praise the Lord!His love never ends.”
