So Amaziah sent the Israelite army back home to Ephraim. They were very angry with the people of Judah and went home angry.
The earth belongs to the Lord, and everything in it— the world and all its people.
The Lord’s blessing brings wealth, and no sorrow comes with it.
but remember the Lord your God! It is he who gives you the power to become rich, keeping the agreement he promised to your ancestors, as it is today.
