Chronicles II 28:12 In-Context

10 And now ye talk of keeping the children of Juda and Jerusalem for servants and handmaidens. Lo, am I not with you to testify for the Lord your God?

11 And now hearken to me, and restore the prisoners of your brethren whom ye have taken: for the fierce anger of the Lord upon you.

12 And the chiefs of the sons of Ephraim rose up, Udias the son of Joanas, and Barachias the son of Mosolamoth, and Ezekias the son of Sellem, and Amasias the son of Eldai, against those that came from the war,

13 and said to them, Ye shall not bring in hither the prisoners to us, for whereas sin against the Lord upon us, ye mean to add to our sins, and to our trespass: for our sin great, and the fierce anger of the Lord upon Israel.

14 So the warriors left the prisoners and the spoils before the princes and all the congregation.
