updv - 2Chronicles:14:2-15

updv@2Chronicles:14:2 @ And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of Yahweh his God:

updv@2Chronicles:14:3 @ for he took away the foreign altars, and the high places, and broke down the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim,

updv@2Chronicles:14:4 @ and commanded Judah to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.

updv@2Chronicles:14:5 @ Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the sun-images: and the kingdom was quiet before him.

updv@2Chronicles:14:6 @ And he built fortified cities in Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because Yahweh had given him rest.

updv@2Chronicles:14:7 @ For he said to Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars; the land is yet before us, because we have sought Yahweh our God; we have sought him, and he has given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered.

updv@2Chronicles:14:8 @ And Asa had an army that bore bucklers and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bore shields and drew bows, 280,000: all these were mighty men of valor.

updv@2Chronicles:14:9 @ And there came out against them Zerah the Ethiopian with an army of a thousand thousand, and three hundred chariots; and he came to Mareshah.

updv@2Chronicles:14:10 @ Then Asa went out to meet him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.

updv@2Chronicles:14:11 @ And Asa cried to Yahweh his God, and said, Yahweh, there is none besides you to help, between the mighty and him who has no strength: help us, O Yahweh our God; for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. O Yahweh, you are our God; don't let common man prevail against you.

updv@2Chronicles:14:12 @ So Yahweh struck the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.

updv@2Chronicles:14:13 @ And Asa and the people who were with him pursued them to Gerar: and there fell of the Ethiopians so many that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before Yahweh, and before his host; and they carried away very much booty.

updv@2Chronicles:14:14 @ And they struck all the cities round about Gerar; for the fear of Yahweh came upon them: and they despoiled all the cities; for there was much spoil in them.

updv@2Chronicles:14:15 @ They struck also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep in abundance, and camels, and returned to Jerusalem.
