Verse 9 is found in chapter 25 of 2 Chronicles. Amaziah organizes his army and hires mercenaries from the north, but a prophet orders him not to take them to war because God is not with Israel. The king obeys and gains victory with his own men. The financial loss from dismissing the mercenaries also illustrates the practical cost of obedience when an investment has already been made.
