The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “I will disguise myself and go into the battle, but you put on your robes.”
The king of Israel disguised himself and went into the battle.
Now the king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, “Don’t fight with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.”
When the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, they said, “Surely that is the king of Israel!”
and they came over to fight against him.
Jehoshaphat cried out.
When the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, they turned back from pursuing him.
