2 Chronicles 18:29-31
1599 Geneva Bible
29 And the King of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will [a]change myself, and enter into the battle: but put thou on thine apparel. So the king of Israel changed himself, and they went into the battle.
30 And the king of Aram had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight you not with small nor great, but against the king of Israel only.
31 And when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, they said, It is the king of Israel: and they compassed about him to fight. But Jehoshaphat [b]cried, and the Lord helped him and moved them to depart from him.
