So that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams, the same may be a priest of those who are no gods. 10 But as for us, the LORD is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and the priests who minister to the LORD are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites attend to their duties. 11 And they burn to the LORD every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense: they also set the showbread in order upon the pure table; and the gold lampstand with its lamps, to burn every evening: for we keep the charge of the LORD our God; but you have forsaken him. 12 And behold, God himself is with us as our captain, and his priests with sounding trumpets to sound alarm against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the LORD God of your fathers; for you shall not prosper. 13 But Jeroboam set an ambush to come around behind them: so they were in front of Judah, and the ambush was behind them. 14 And when Judah looked back, behold, the battle was in front and behind: and they cried to the LORD, and the priests sounded with the trumpets. 15 Then the men of Judah shouted: and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah. 16 And the children of Israel fled before Judah, and God delivered them into their hand. 17 And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter: so there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men. 18 Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied upon the LORD God of their fathers.
