H29
So Abijah
H7901
slept
H1
with his fathers,
H6912
and they buried
H5892
him in the city
H1732
of David:
H609
and Asa
H1121
his son
H4427
reigned
H8478
in his stead.
H3117
In his days
H776
the land
H8252
was quiet
H6235
ten
H8141
years.
2
H609
And Asa
H6213
did
H2896
that which was good
H3477
and right
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of the LORD
H430
his God:
3
H5493
For he took
H5493
away
H4196
the altars
H5236
of the strange
H1116
gods, and the high
H7665
places, and broke
H4676
down the images,
H1438
and cut
H842
down the groves:
4
H559
And commanded
H3063
Judah
H1875
to seek
H3068
the LORD
H430
God
H1
of their fathers,
H6213
and to do
H8451
the law
H4687
and the commandment.
5
H5493
Also he took
H5493
away
H3605
out of all
H5892
the cities
H3063
of Judah
H1116
the high
H4467
places and the images: and the kingdom
H8252
was quiet
H6440
before him.
6
H1129
And he built
H4694
fenced
H5892
cities
H3063
in Judah:
H776
for the land
H8252
had rest,
H369
and he had no
H4421
war
H428
in those
H8141
years;
H3588
because
H3068
the LORD
H5117
had given him rest.
7
H559
Therefore he said
H3063
to Judah,
H1129
Let us build
H428
these
H5892
cities,
H5437
and make about
H2346
them walls,
H4026
and towers,
H1817
gates,
H1280
and bars,
H776
while the land
H5750
is yet
H6440
before
H3588
us; because
H1875
we have sought
H3068
the LORD
H430
our God,
H1875
we have sought
H5117
him, and he has given us rest
H5437
on every
H5439
side.
H1129
So they built
H6743
and prospered.
8
H609
And Asa
H1961
had
H2428
an army
H5375
of men that bore
H6793
targets
H7420
and spears,
H3063
out of Judah
H7969
three
H3967
hundred
H7239
thousand;
H505
H1144
and out of Benjamin,
H5375
that bore
H4043
shields
H1869
and drew
H7198
bows,
H3967
two hundred
H8084
and fourscore
H7239
thousand:
H505
H3605
all
H428
these
H1368
were mighty
H2428
men of valor.
9
H3318
And there came
H413
out against
H2226
them Zerah
H3569
the Ethiopian
H2428
with an host
H505
of a thousand
H505
thousand,
H7969
and three
H3967
hundred
H4818
chariots;
H935
and came
H4762
to Mareshah.
10
H609
Then Asa
H3318
went
H6440
out against
H4421
him, and they set the battle
H6186
in array
H1516
in the valley
H6859
of Zephathah
H4762
at Mareshah.
11
H609
And Asa
H7121
cried
H3068
to the LORD
H430
his God,
H559
and said,
H3068
LORD,
H369
it is nothing
H5826
with you to help,
H996
whether
H7227
with many,
H369
or with them that have no
H3581
power:
H5826
help
H3068
us, O LORD
H430
our God;
H8172
for we rest
H5921
on
H8034
you, and in your name
H935
we go
H5921
against
H2088
this
H1995
multitude.
H3068
O LORD,
H430
you are our God;
H582
let no man
H6113
prevail
H5973
against you.
12
H3068
So the LORD
H5062
smote
H3569
the Ethiopians
H6440
before
H609
Asa,
H6440
and before
H3063
Judah;
H3569
and the Ethiopians
H5127
fled.
13
H609
And Asa
H5971
and the people
H7291
that were with him pursued
H1642
them to Gerar:
H3569
and the Ethiopians
H5307
were overthrown,
H4241
that they could not recover
H1992
themselves;
H7665
for they were destroyed
H6440
before
H3068
the LORD,
H6440
and before
H4264
his host;
H5375
and they carried
H3966
away very
H7235
much
H7998
spoil.
