4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheepbreeder, and he ^aregularly paid the king of Israel one hundred thousand ^blambs and the wool of one hundred thousand rams.  ‡

6 So King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time and mustered all Israel.

7 Then he went and sent to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, saying, “The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?” And he said, “I will go up; ^aI am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses.”  ‡
