Keesokan harinya pagi-pagi mereka maju menuju padang gurun Tekoa. Ketika mereka hendak berangkat, berdirilah Yosafat, dan berkata: "Dengar, hai Yehuda dan penduduk Yerusalem! Percayalah kepada TUHAN, Allahmu, dan kamu akan tetap teguh! Percayalah kepada nabi-nabi-Nya, dan kamu akan berhasil!"
Maka bangunlah mereka itu pada pagi-pagi hari, lalu berjalan ke padang belantara Tekoa, maka sementara mereka itu keluar berdirilah Yosafat serta titahnya: Dengarlah olehmu akan daku, hai orang Yehuda dan kamu orang isi Yeruzalem! hendaklah kamu percaya akan Tuhan, Allahmu, maka kamu akan ditetapkan; percayalah akan nabinya, maka kamu kelak akan selamat.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they rose early in the morning,.... Being confident of success, animated by what the prophet said to them:
and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa; which, according to Jerom u, was six miles from Bethlehem, and nine from Jerusalem, some say twelve, beyond which was nothing but a desert; it was part of the wilderness of Judah:
and as they went forth; out of Jerusalem, through one of the gates of it:
Jehoshaphat stood and said, believe in the Lord your God; in the promises he had made, particularly with respect to the victory over their present enemies; the Targum is,
"in the Word of the Lord your God:''
so shall you be established; have courage and firmness of mind, as well as be safe and secure:
believe his prophets; sent by him, and that speak in his name, particularly Jahaziel, who had predicted victory to them:
so shall ye prosper; things will succeed to your wishes, and beyond your expectations.
u Prooem. in Amos, and Comment. in ch. i. 1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Tekoa (2 Samuel 14:2 note) lay on the borders of the desert which skirts the highlands of Judaea toward the east. The town was built on a hill of a considerable height.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 20:20. Believe in the Lord your God — "Believe in the WORD of the Lord your God, and believe in his law, and believe in his prophets; and ye shall prosper." Here the WORD and the revelation are most pointedly distinguished; the Word being used personally.
