20 And they proceeded to rise early in the morning and go out to the wilderness+ of Te·koʹa.+ And as they went out, Je·hoshʹa·phat stood up and then said: “Hear me, O Judah and YOU inhabitants of Jerusalem!+ Put faith+ in Jehovah YOUR God that YOU may prove yourselves of long duration. Put faith in his prophets+ and so prove successful.”

23 But this word I did express in command upon them, saying: “Obey my voice,+ and I will become YOUR God,+ and YOU yourselves will become my people; and YOU must walk in all the way+ that I shall command YOU, in order that it may go well with YOU.”’+

13 And now make YOUR ways and YOUR dealings good,+ and obey the voice of Jehovah YOUR God, and Jehovah will feel regret for the calamity that he has spoken against YOU.+
