2 Chronicles 20:27

Then they returned, every man of Judah and of Jerusalem, and
Jehoshaphat at the forefront of them, to go again to Jerusalem with
joy
There to praise the Lord in the temple, as they had done in the valley:

for the Lord had made them to rejoice over their enemies;
by giving them a complete victory, and making them masters of so much wealth and riches.

2 Chronicles 20:27 In-Context

25 When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away their spoil, they found among them an abundance of valuables on the dead bodies, and precious jewelry, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away; and they were three days gathering the spoil because there was so much.

26 And on the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Berachah, for there they blessed the Lord; therefore the name of that place was called The Valley of Berachah until this day.

27 Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, with Jehoshaphat in front of them, to go back to Jerusalem with joy, for the Lord had made them rejoice over their enemies.

28 So they came to Jerusalem, with stringed instruments and harps and trumpets, to the house of the Lord.

29 And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of those countries when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel.
