Three kings march for seven days through the wilderness of Edom until their army and animals have no water left.
Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria In the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah
He reigned for twelve years He did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight But not like his father and like his mother For he put away the pillar of Baal that his father had made Nevertheless he held to the sins of Jeroboam
Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheep breeder And he supplied the king of Israel with one hundred thousand lambs And the wool of one hundred thousand rams But when Ahab was dead the king of Moab rebelled
King Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time And mustered all Israel He went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah saying The king of Moab has rebelled against me Will you go with me against Moab to battle
He said I will go up I am as you are My people as your people my horses as your horses Then he said Which way shall we go up Jehoram answered The way of the wilderness of Edom
So the king of Israel went with the king of Judah And the king of Edom and they marched for seven days Along a circuitous route There was no water for the army Or for the animals that followed them
The king of Israel said Alas For the LORD has called these three kings Together to deliver them into the hand of Moab But Jehoshaphat said Isn’t there a prophet of the LORD here That we may enquire of the LORD by him
One of the king of Israel’s servants answered Elisha the son of Shaphat who poured water on the hands of Elijah is here Jehoshaphat said The LORD’s word is with him So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him
Elisha said Now bring me a musician When the musician played the LORD’s hand came on him He said The LORD says Make this valley full of trenches For the LORD says You will not see wind neither will you see rain
