- Ye shall not go up:
- "Go not up,ª°¹ for¹ the LORDª [is] not¹ amongª you; that ye be not¹ smittenª° beforeª your enemies.ª°" {Num 14:42} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORD,ª Ye shall not¹ go up,ª° nor¹ fightª° against¹ your brethren:ª returnª° every manª to his house:ª for¹ this¹ thingª is doneª° of¹¹ me. And they obeyedª°¹ the wordsª of the LORD,ª and returnedª° from going²°¹¹ against¹ Jeroboam.ª" {2Ch 11:4} + "But there cameª° a manª of Godª to¹ him, saying,ª° O king,ª let not¹ the armyª of Israelª goª° with¹ thee; for¹ the LORDª [is] not¹ with¹ Israel,ª [to wit, with] all¹ the childrenª of Ephraim.ª ... But¹ if¹ thou¹ wilt go,ª° doª° [it], be strongª° for the battle:ª Godª shall make thee fallª° beforeª the enemy:ª° for¹ Godª hathª powerª to help,ª° and to cast down.ª°" {2Ch 25:7-8} + "But a prophetª of the LORDª was¹ there,¹ whose nameª [was] Oded:ª and he went outª° beforeª the hostª that cameª° to Samaria,ª and saidª° unto them, Behold,¹ because the LORDª Godª of your fathersª was wrothª with¹ Judah,ª he hath deliveredª° them into your hand,ª and ye have slainª° them in a rageª [that] reacheth upª° unto¹ heaven.ª ... And saidª° unto them, Ye shall not¹ bring inª°¹ the captivesª hither:¹ for whereas¹ we have offended² against¹¹ the LORDª [already], ye¹ intendª° to addª° [more] to¹ our sinsª and to¹ our trespass:ª for¹ our trespassª is great,ª and [there is] fierceª wrathª against¹ Israel.ª" {2Ch 28:9-13}
