Chapter 25
6He also hired a hundred thousand valiant warriors from Israel for a hundred talents of silver. 7But a man of God came to him saying, 'O king, do not let the army of Israel come with you, for the Lord is not with Israel nor with any of the sons of Ephraim. 8But if you do go, do it, be strong for the battle; yet God will bring you down before the enemy, for God has the power to help and to bring down.'King James Version
Chapter 25
6He hired also an hundred thousand mighty men of valour out of Israel for an hundred talents of silver. 7But there came a man of God to him, saying, O king, let not the army of Israel go with thee; for the LORD is not with Israel, to wit, with all the children of Ephraim. 8But if thou wilt go, do it, be strong for the battle: God shall make thee fall before the enemy: for God hath power to help, and to cast down.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 25
6Then for 7,500 pounds of silver he hired one hundred thousand valiant warriors from Israel.
7However, a man of God came to him and said, "King, do not let Israel's army go with you, for the Lord is not with Israel--all the Ephraimites.
8But if you go with them, do it! Be strong for battle! But God will make you stumble before the enemy, for God has the power to help or to make one stumble."
New Living Translation
Chapter 25
6He also paid about 7,500 pounds of silver to hire 100,000 experienced fighting men from Israel.
7But a man of God came to him and said, 'Your Majesty, do not hire troops from Israel, for the Lord is not with Israel. He will not help those people of Ephraim!
8If you let them go with your troops into battle, you will be defeated by the enemy no matter how well you fight. God will overthrow you, for he has the power to help you or to trip you up.'

6He also hired a hundred thousand fighting men from Israel for a hundred talents of silver.
7But a man of God came to him and said, 'Your Majesty, these troops from Israel must not march with you, for the LORD is not with Israel--not with any of the people of Ephraim.
