21 Tendo ele tomado conselho com o povo, designou os que haviam de cantar ao Senhor e louvá-lo vestidos de trajes santos, ao saírem diante do exército, e dizer: Dai graças ao Senhor, porque a sua benignidade dura para sempre.
22 Ora, quando começaram a cantar e a dar louvores, o Senhor pôs emboscadas contra os homens de Amom, de Moabe e do monte Seir, que tinham vindo contra Judá; e foram desbaratados.
23 Pois os homens de Amom e de Moabe se levantaram contra os moradores do monte Seir, para os destruir e exterminar; e, acabando eles com os moradores do monte Seir, ajudaram a destruir-se uns aos outros.
24 Nisso chegou Judá � atalaia do deserto; e olharam para a multidão, e eis que eram cadáveres que jaziam por terra, não havendo ninguém escapado.
