NETBible

When they began to shout and praise, the Lord suddenly attacked the Ammonites, Moabites, and men from Mount Seir who were invading Judah, and they were defeated.

NET Notes

tn Heb “set ambushers against.” This is probably idiomatic here for launching a surprise attack.

tn Heb “the sons of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir.”
