| 2Ch 14:1 | So Abijah H29 slept H7901 with H5973 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. H8478 In his days H3117 the land H776 was quiet H8252 ten H6235 years.H8141 |
| 2Ch 14:2 | And Asa H609 did H6213 that which was good H2896 and right H3477 in the eyes H5869 of the LORD H3068 his God:H430 |
| 2Ch 14:3 | For he took away H5493 (H853) the altars H4196 of the strange H5236 gods, and the high places, H1116 and brake down H7665 (H853) the images, H4676 and cut down H1438 (H853) the groves:H842 |
| 2Ch 14:4 | And commanded H559 Judah H3063 to seek H1875 (H853) the LORD H3068 God H430 of their fathers, H1 and to do H6213 the law H8451 and the commandment.H4687 |
| 2Ch 14:5 | Also he took away H5493 out of all H4480 H3605 the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 (H853) the high places H1116 and the images: H2553 and the kingdom H4467 was quiet H8252 before H6440 him. |
| 2Ch 14:6 | And he built H1129 fenced H4694 cities H5892 in Judah: H3063 for H3588 the land H776 had rest, H8252 and he had no H369 war H4421 in those H428 years; H8141 because H3588 the LORD H3068 had given him rest.H5117 |
| 2Ch 14:7 | Therefore he said H559 unto Judah, H3063 Let us build H1129 (H853) these H428 cities, H5892 and make about H5437 them walls, H2346 and towers, H4026 gates, H1817 and bars, H1280 while the land H776 is yet H5750 before H6440 us; because H3588 we have sought H1875 (H853) the LORD H3068 our God, H430 we have sought H1875 him, and he hath given us rest H5117 on every side. H4480 H5439 So they built H1129 and prospered.H6743 |
| 2Ch 14:8 | And Asa H609 had H1961 an army H2428 of men that bare H5375 targets H6793 and spears, H7420 out of H4480 Judah H3063 three H7969 hundred H3967 thousand; H505 and out of Benjamin, H4480 H1144 that bare H5375 shields H4043 and drew H1869 bows, H7198 two hundred H3967 and fourscore H8084 thousand: H505 all H3605 these H428 were mighty men H1368 of valour.H2428 |
| 2Ch 14:9 | And there came out H3318 against H413 them Zerah H2226 the Ethiopian H3569 with an host H2428 of a thousand H505 thousand, H505 and three H7969 hundred H3967 chariots; H4818 and came H935 unto H5704 Mareshah.H4762 |
| 2Ch 14:10 | Then Asa H609 went out H3318 against H6440 him, and they set the battle in array H6186 H4421 in the valley H1516 of Zephathah H6859 at Mareshah.H4762 |
| 2Ch 14:11 | And Asa H609 cried H7121 unto H413 the LORD H3068 his God, H430 and said, H559 LORD, H3068 it is nothing H369 with H5973 thee to help, H5826 whether H996 with many, H7227 or with them that have no H369 power: H3581 help H5826 us, O LORD H3068 our God; H430 for H3588 we rest H8172 on H5921 thee, and in thy name H8034 we go H935 against H5921 this H2088 multitude. H1995 O LORD, H3068 thou H859 art our God; H430 let not H408 man H582 prevail H6113 against H5973 thee. |
| 2Ch 14:12 | So the LORD H3068 smote H5062 (H853) the Ethiopians H3569 before H6440 Asa, H609 and before H6440 Judah; H3063 and the Ethiopians H3569 fled.H5127 |
| 2Ch 14:13 | And Asa H609 and the people H5971 that H834 were with H5973 him pursued H7291 them unto H5704 Gerar: H1642 and the Ethiopians H4480 H3569 were overthrown, H5307 that they could not H369 recover H4241 themselves; for H3588 they were destroyed H7665 before H6440 the LORD, H3068 and before H6440 his host; H4264 and they carried away H5375 very H3966 much H7235 spoil.H7998 |
| 2Ch 14:14 | And they smote H5221 (H853) all H3605 the cities H5892 round about H5439 Gerar; H1642 for H3588 the fear H6343 of the LORD H3068 came H1961 upon H5921 them: and they spoiled H962 (H853) all H3605 the cities; H5892 for H3588 there was H1961 exceeding much H7227 spoil H961 in them. |
| 2Ch 14:15 | They smote H5221 also H1571 the tents H168 of cattle, H4735 and carried away H7617 sheep H6629 and camels H1581 in abundance, H7230 and returned H7725 to Jerusalem.H3389 |
