2 Chronicles 13:12

13:12 Now look, God is with us as our leader. His priests are ready to blow the trumpets to signal the attack against you. ¹  You Israelites, don’t fight against the Lord God of your ancestors, ²  for you will not win!”

2 Chronicles 19:8

19:8 In Jerusalem Jehoshaphat appointed some Levites, priests, and Israelite family leaders to judge on behalf of the Lord ³  and to settle disputes among the residents of Jerusalem. ⁴ 

¹ tn Heb “and his priests and the trumpets of the war alarm [are ready] to sound out against you.”

² tn Heb “fathers” (also in v. 18).

³ tn Heb “for the judgment of the Lord.”

⁴ tc Heb “and to conduct a case [or “for controversy”], and they returned [to] Jerusalem.” Some emend וַיָּשֻׁבוּ (vayyashuvu, “and they returned”) to וַיֵּשְׁבוּ (vayyeshÿvu, “and they lived [in]”). The present translation assumes an emendation to יֹשְׁבֵי (yoshÿvey, “residents of”).
