2 Chronicles 20:20-24 So they rose early in the morning, and went out to the wilderness of Tekoa,––and, as they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, Trust ye in Yahweh your God, and ye shall be trusted, Trust ye in his prophets, and ye shall prosper.
