The Prayer Of Jehoshaphat

² And they came to Jehoshaphat with the news, saying, A great army is moving against you from Edom across the sea; and now they are in Hazazon-tamar (which is En-gedi). ³ Then Jehoshaphat, in his fear, went to the Lord for directions, and gave orders all through Judah for the people to go without food. ⁴ And Judah came together to make prayer for help from the Lord; from every town of Judah they came to give worship to the Lord.
