Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
19And Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brethren and their sons, twenty;
21Then I proclaimed a fast there, at the river of Ahava, that we might afflict ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance.
23So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was entreated of us.
