Charles Spurgeon Commentary 2 Chronicles 12:6

"Then the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, Jehovah is righteous." — 2 Chronicles 12:6 (ASV)

That was well done. They had not yet become so confirmed in their rebellion as to reject the prophet of God, and to turn in willful, wanton, resolute disobedience against him.
