2 Chronicles 25:6-10
25:6 He hired 100,000 Israelite warriors for a hundred talents
of silver.
25:7 But a prophet visited him and said: “O king, the Israelite troops must not go with you, for the Lord is not with Israel or any of the Ephraimites.
25:8 Even if you go and fight bravely in battle, God will defeat you before the enemy. God is capable of helping or defeating.”
25:9 Amaziah asked the prophet: “But what should I do about the hundred talents of silver I paid the Israelite troops?” The prophet replied, “The Lord is capable of giving you more than that.”
25:10 So Amaziah dismissed the troops that had come to him from Ephraim and sent them home. They were very angry at Judah and returned home incensed.
