Expanded Bible

⁵ Amaziah ·gathered [summoned; assembled] the people of Judah together. He ·grouped [assigned] all the people of Judah and Benjamin by ·families [clans], and he put commanders over groups of a thousand and over groups of a hundred. He ·counted [took a census of] the men who were twenty years old and older. In all there were three hundred thousand soldiers ready to fight and ·skilled [trained] with spears and shields. ⁶ Amaziah also hired one hundred thousand skilled soldiers from Israel for ·about seventy-five hundred pounds [^Lone hundred talents] of silver. ⁷ But a man of God [^Cprophet] came to Amaziah and said, “My king, don’t let the army of Israel go with you. The Lord is not with Israel or any of the people from the tribe of Ephraim.
