- And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy endureth for ever.
- And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten.
- For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another.
- And when Judah came toward the watch tower in the wilderness, they looked unto the multitude, and, behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none escaped.
- And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away the spoil of them, they found among them in abundance both riches with the dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away: and they were three days in gathering of the spoil, it was so much.

- И совещался он с народом, и поставил певцов Господу, чтобы они в благолепии святыни, выступая впереди вооруженных, славословили и говорили: славьте Господа, ибо вовек милость Его!
- И в то время, [как] они стали восклицать и славословить, Господь возбудил несогласие между Аммонитянами, Моавитянами и [обитателями] горы Сеира, пришедшими на Иудею, и были они поражены:
- ибо восстали Аммонитяне и Моавитяне на обитателей горы Сеира, побивая и истребляя [их], а когда покончили с жителями Сеира, тогда стали истреблять друг друга.
- И когда Иудеи пришли на возвышенность к пустыне и взглянули на то многолюдство, и вот--трупы, лежащие на земле, и нет уцелевшего.
- И пришел Иосафат и народ его забирать добычу, и нашли у них во множестве и имущество, и одежды, и драгоценные вещи, и набрали себе столько, что не [могли] нести. И три дня они забирали добычу; так велика [была] она!
