2 Crónicas 14

1So Abijah^H29 slept^H7901 with his fathers^H1, and they buried^H6912 him in the city^H5892 of David^H1732; and Asa^H609 his son^H1121 reigned^H4427 in his stead. In his days^H3117 the land^H776 was quiet^H8252 ten^H6235 years^H8141. 2And Asa^H609 did^H6213 that which was good^H2896 and right^H3477 in the eyes^H5869 of Jehovah^H3068 his God^H430: 3for he took away^H5493 the foreign^H5236 altars^H4196, and the high places^H1116, and brake down^H7665 the pillars^H4676, and hewed down^H7665 the Asherim^H842, 4and commanded^H559 Judah^H3063 to seek^H1875 Jehovah^H3068, the God^H430 of their fathers^H1, and to do^H6213 the law^H8451 and the commandment^H4687. 5Also he took away^H5493 out of all the cities^H5892 of Judah^H3063 the high places^H1116 and the sun-images^H2553: and the kingdom^H4467 was quiet^H8252 before^H6440 him. 6And he built^H1129 fortified^H4694 cities^H5892 in Judah^H3063; for the land^H776 was quiet^H8252, and he had no war^H4421 in those years^H8141, because Jehovah^H3068 had given him rest^H5117. 7For he said^H559 unto Judah^H3063, Let us build^H1129 these cities^H5892, and make about^H5437 them walls^H2346, and towers^H4026, gates^H1817, and bars^H1280; the land^H776 is yet before^H6440 us, because we have sought^H1875 Jehovah^H3068 our God^H430; we have sought^H1875 him, and he hath given us rest^H5117 on every side^H5439. So they built^H1129 and prospered^H6743. 8And Asa^H609 had an army^H2428 that bare^H5375 bucklers^H6793 and spears^H7420, out of Judah^H3063 three^H7969 hundred^H3967 thousand^H505; and out of Benjamin^H1144, that bare^H5375 shields^H4043 and drew^H1869 bows^H7198, two hundred^H3967 and fourscore^H8084 thousand^H505: all these were mighty men^H1368 of valor^H2428. 9And there came out^H3318 against them Zerah^H2226 the Ethiopian^H3569 with an army^H2428 of a thousand^H505 thousand^H505, and three^H7969 hundred^H3967 chariots^H4818; and he came^H935 unto Mareshah^H4762. 10Then Asa^H609 went out^H3318 to meet^H6440 him, and they set the battle^H4421 in array^H6186 in the valley^H1516 of Zephathah^H6859 at Mareshah^H4762. 11And Asa^H609 cried^H7121 unto Jehovah^H3068 his God^H430, and said^H559, Jehovah^H3068, there is none besides thee to help^H5826, between^H996 the mighty^H7227 and him that hath no strength^H3581: help^H5826 us, O Jehovah^H3068 our God^H430; for we rely^H8172 on thee, and in thy name^H8034 are we come^H935 against this multitude^H1995. O Jehovah^H3068, thou art our God^H430; let not man^H582 prevail^H6113 against thee. 12So Jehovah^H3068 smote^H5062 the Ethiopians^H3569 before^H6440 Asa^H609, and before^H6440 Judah^H3063; and the Ethiopians^H3569 fled^H5127. 13And Asa^H609 and the people^H5971 that were with him pursued^H7291 them unto Gerar^H1642: and there fell^H5307 of the Ethiopians^H3569 so many that they could not recover^H4241 themselves; for they were destroyed^H7665 before^H6440 Jehovah^H3068, and before^H6440 his host^H4264; and they carried away^H5375 very^H3966 much^H7235 booty^H7998. 14And they smote^H5221 all the cities^H5892 round about^H5439 Gerar^H1642; for the fear^H6343 of Jehovah^H3068 came upon them: and they despoiled^H962 all the cities^H5892; for there was much^H7227 spoil^H961 in them. 15They smote^H5221 also the tents^H168 of cattle^H4735, and carried away^H7617 sheep^H6629 in abundance^H7230, and camels^H1581, and returned^H7725 to Jerusalem^H3389.
