1 Some time later, the Moabites and the Ammonites, along with some of the Meunites, attacked Jehoshaphat.
2 Jehoshaphat was told, "A large army from beyond the sea, from Edom, is coming to attack you. They are already at Hazazon-tamar!" (that is, En-gedi).
3 Frightened, Jehoshaphat decided to seek the Lord’s help and proclaimed a fast for all Judah.
4 People from all of Judah’s cities came to ask the Lord for help.
