2 Chronicles 18:30 In-Context

28 So the king of Israel went up to Ramoth Gilead. Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, went there too.
29 The king of Israel spoke to Jehoshaphat. He said, "I'll go into battle wearing different clothes. Then people won't recognize me. But you wear your royal robes." So the king of Israel put on different clothes. Then he went into battle.
30 The king of Aram had given an order to his chariot commanders. He had said, "Fight only against the king of Israel. Don't fight against anyone else."
31 The chariot commanders saw Jehoshaphat. They thought, "That's the king of Israel." So they turned to attack him. But Jehoshaphat cried out. And the LORD helped him. God drew the commanders away from him.
32 They saw he wasn't the king of Israel after all. So they stopped chasing him.
