La Bible Ostervald (1996)
Ce ne sera point à vous de combattre en cette bataille; présentez-vous, tenez-vous là, et voyez la délivrance que l'Éternel va vous donner. Juda et Jérusalem, ne craignez point, et ne soyez point effrayés! Demain, sortez au-devant d'eux, et l'Éternel sera avec vous.
Louis Segond (1910)
Vous n'aurez point à combattre en cette affaire: présentez-vous, tenez-vous là, et vous verrez la délivrance que l'Eternel vous accordera. Juda et Jérusalem, ne craignez point et ne vous effrayez point, demain, sortez à leur rencontre, et l'Eternel sera avec vous!
La Bible David Martin (1744)
Ce ne sera point à vous à combattre dans cette bataille, présentez-vous, tenez-vous debout, et voyez la délivrance que l'Eternel vous va donner. Juda et Jérusalem, ne craignez point, et ne soyez point effrayés ; sortez demain au devant d'eux, car l'Eternel sera avec vous.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Ye shall not need to fight in this battle,.... Since the Lord would fight for them:

set yourselves, stand ye still; present themselves they might, as if ready to engage; and keep their ground, not giving way in the least, but would have no need to strike a stroke:

and see the salvation of the Lord with you; which he would work for them, see Exodus 14:13,

and Judah, and Jerusalem, fear not, nor be dismayed; which is repeated for the confirmation of them:

tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord will be with you; to protect them, fight for them, and give them victory; the Targum is,

"the Word of the Lord shall be your help.''

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The prophet uses words familiar to the people, and connected with several great deliverances (see the marginal references).

2 Chronicles 20:16

By the “cliff (or, rather - as in the margin - ascent) of Ziz,” we must understand the mountain path which leads up from Engedi across the elevated tract still known as El-Husasah, in the direction of Tekoa 2 Chronicles 20:20.

At the end of the brook - Rather, “at the end of the gulley,” or dry torrent-course. No name like Jeruel has been as yet found in this district.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 20:17. For the Lord will be with you. — "The WORD of the Lord shall be your Helper." - Targum.
