The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Tanach: 2_Chronicles 18: 28 So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the kind of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
2_Chronicles 18: 29 And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat: 'I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but put thou on thy robes.' So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went into the battle.
2_Chronicles 18: 30 Now the king of Aram had commanded the captains of his chariots, saying: 'Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king of Israel.'
2_Chronicles 18: 31 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said: 'It is the king of Israel.' Therefore they turned about to fight against him; but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.
2_Chronicles 18: 32 And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
2_Chronicles 18: 33 And a certain man drew his bow at a venture, and smote the king of Israel between the lower armour and the breastplate; wherefore he said to the driver of the chariot: 'Turn thy hand, and carry me out of the host; for I am sore wounded.'
2_Chronicles 18: 34 And the battle increased that day; howbeit the king of Israel stayed himself up in his chariot against the Arameans until the even; and about the time of the going down of the sun he died.
