20 And when they arose early in the morning and while they were going forth into the wilderness of Tekoa, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe the Lord your God, and ye shall be secure; believe his prophets, and ye shall be prospered.
21 And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed some to sing unto the Lord and to praise in the beauty of holiness, while the army went out and to say, Praise the Lord, for his mercy endures for ever.
22 And when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set the sons of Moab and those of Mount Seir to ambush the sons of Ammon, who were coming against Judah; and they smote one another.
23 And the sons of Ammon and Moab rose 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, each one helped his companion to kill himself.
24 And when Judah came to the watch tower of the wilderness, they looked for the multitude, and, behold, they were fallen to the earth dead, for none had escaped.
25 And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to spoil them, they found among them an abundance of riches and of dead bodies and clothing and precious vessels which they took for themselves, more than they could carry away; and they were three days gathering in the spoil, it was so much.
26 And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Berachah {Heb. of Blessing}; for there they blessed the Lord; therefore, they called the name of that place, The valley of Berachah, unto this day.
