2 Chronicles 20:19-21

Common English Bible

¹⁹ Levites from the lines of Kohath and Korah stood up to loudly praise the Lord, the God of Israel.

²⁰ Early the next morning they went into the Tekoa wilderness. When they were about to go out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Listen to me, Judah and every inhabitant of Jerusalem! Trust the Lord your God, and you will stand firm; trust his prophets and succeed!”

²¹ After consulting with the people, Jehoshaphat appointed musicians to play for the Lord, praising his majestic holiness. They were to march out before the warriors, saying, “Give thanks to the Lord because his faithful love lasts forever!”
