CHAPTER 8

22 For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way: because we had spoken unto the king, saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for ^agood that ^bseek him; but his power and his wrath is against all them that forsake him.
