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

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

jps@2Chronicles:15:19 @ And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.

jps@2Chronicles:16:1 @ In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa, Baasa king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not suffer any to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.

jps@2Chronicles:16:8 @ Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubim a huge host, with chariots and horsemen exceeding many? yet, because thou didst rely on the LORD, He delivered them into thy hand.
