“And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab hath rebelled against me: wilt thou go with me against Moab to battle? And he said, I will go up: I am as thou art, my people as thy people, and my horses as thy horses.”
Joram invites Jehoshaphat: "Will you go with me to war against Moab?" Jehoshaphat responds: "I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses" — the alliance between north and south is cemented through personal commitment. Jehoshaphat's rhetoric affirms complete solidarity, though his participation in an ungodly campaign will have consequences.
