2 Chronicles 14

KJV

1  So Abijah29 slept7901 with5973 his fathers,1 and they buried6912 him in the city5892 of David:1732 and Asa609 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478 In his days3117 the land776 was quiet8252 ten6235 years.8141

2  And Asa609 did6213 that which was good2896 and right3477 in the eyes5869 of the LORD3068 his God:430

3  For he took away5493 853 the altars4196 of the strange5236 gods, and the high places,1116 and broke down7665 853 the images,4676 and cut down1438 853 the groves:842

4  And commanded559 Judah3063 to seek1875 853 the LORD3068 God430 of their fathers,1 and to do6213 the law8451 and the commandment.4687

5  Also he took away5493 out of all4480 3605 the cities5892 of Judah3063 853 the high places1116 and the images:2553 and the kingdom4467 was quiet8252 before6440 him.

6  And he built1129 fenced4694 cities5892 in Judah:3063 for3588 the land776 had rest,8252 and he had no369 war4421 in those428 years;8141 because3588 the LORD3068 had given him rest.5117

7  Therefore he said559 unto Judah,3063 Let us build1129 853 these428 cities,5892 and make about5437 them walls,2346 and towers,4026 gates,1817 and bars,1280 while the land776 is yet5750 before6440 us; because3588 we have sought1875 853 the LORD3068 our God,430 we have sought1875 him, and he hath given us rest5117 on every side.4480 5439 So they built1129 and prospered.6743

8  And Asa609 had1961 an army2428 of men that bore5375 targets6793 and spears,7420 out of4480 Judah3063 three7969 hundred3967 thousand;505 and out of Benjamin,4480 1144 that bore5375 shields4043 and drew1869 bows,7198 two hundred3967 and fourscore8084 thousand:505 all3605 these428 were mighty men1368 of valor.2428

9  And there came out3318 against413 them Zerah2226 the Ethiopian3569 with a host2428 of a thousand505 thousand,505 and three7969 hundred3967 chariots;4818 and came935 unto5704 Mareshah.4762

10  Then Asa609 went out3318 against6440 him, and they set the battle in array6186 4421 in the valley1516 of Zephathah6859 at Mareshah.4762

11  And Asa609 cried7121 unto413 the LORD3068 his God,430 and said,559 LORD,3068 it is nothing369 with5973 thee to help,5826 whether996 with many,7227 or with them that have no369 power:3581 help5826 us, O LORD3068 our God;430 for3588 we rest8172 on5921 thee, and in thy name8034 we go935 against5921 this2088 multitude.1995 O LORD,3068 thou859 art our God;430 let not408 man582 prevail6113 against5973 thee.

12  So the LORD3068 smote5062 853 the Ethiopians3569 before6440 Asa,609 and before6440 Judah;3063 and the Ethiopians3569 fled.5127

13  And Asa609 and the people5971 that834 were with5973 him pursued7291 them unto5704 Gerar:1642 and the Ethiopians4480 3569 were overthrown,5307 that they could not369 recover4241 themselves; for3588 they were destroyed7665 before6440 the LORD,3068 and before6440 his host;4264 and they carried away5375 very3966 much7235 spoil.7998

14  And they smote5221 853 all3605 the cities5892 round about5439 Gerar;1642 for3588 the fear6343 of the LORD3068 came1961 upon5921 them: and they spoiled962 853 all3605 the cities;5892 for3588 there was1961 exceeding much7227 spoil961 in them.

15  They smote5221 also1571 the tents168 of cattle,4735 and carried away7617 sheep6629 and camels1581 in abundance,7230 and returned7725 to Jerusalem.3389

1 καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ καλὸν καὶ τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου θεοῦ αὐτοῦ

2 καὶ ἀπέστησεν τὰ θυσιαστήρια τῶν ἀλλοτρίων καὶ τὰ ὑψηλὰ καὶ συνέτριψεν τὰς στήλας καὶ ἐξέκοψεν τὰ ἄλση

3 καὶ εἶπεν τῷ Ιουδα ἐκζητῆσαι τὸν κύριον θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν καὶ ποιῆσαι τὸν νόμον καὶ τὰς ἐντολάς

4 καὶ ἀπέστησεν ἀπὸ πασῶν τῶν πόλεων Ιουδα τὰ θυσιαστήρια καὶ τὰ εἴδωλα καὶ εἰρήνευσεν

5 πόλεις τειχήρεις ἐν γῇ Ιουδα ὅτι εἰρήνευσεν ἡ γῆ καὶ οὐκ ἦν αὐτῷ πόλεμος ἐν τοῖς ἔτεσιν τούτοις ὅτι κατέπαυσεν αὐτῷ κύριος

6 καὶ εἶπεν τῷ Ιουδα οἰκοδομήσωμεν τὰς πόλεις ταύτας καὶ ποιήσωμεν τείχη καὶ πύργους καὶ πύλας καὶ μοχλοὺς ἐν ᾧ τῆς γῆς κυριεύσομεν ὅτι καθὼς ἐξεζητήσαμεν κύριον θεὸν ἡμῶν ἐξεζήτησεν ἡμᾶς καὶ κατέπαυσεν ἡμᾶς κυκλόθεν καὶ εὐόδωσεν ἡμῖν

7 καὶ ἐγένετο τῷ Ασα δύναμις ὁπλοφόρων αἰρόντων θυρεοὺς καὶ δόρατα ἐν γῇ Ιουδα τριακόσιαι χιλιάδες καὶ ἐν γῇ Βενιαμιν πελτασταὶ καὶ τοξόται διακόσιαι καὶ πεντήκοντα χιλιάδες πάντες οὗτοι πολεμισταὶ δυνάμεως

8 καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς Ζαρε ὁ Αἰθίοψ ἐν δυνάμει ἐν χιλίαις χιλιάσιν καὶ ἅρμασιν τριακοσίοις καὶ ἦλθεν ἕως Μαρισα

9 καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ασα εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ καὶ παρετάξατο πόλεμον ἐν τῇ φάραγγι κατὰ βορρᾶν Μαρισης

10 καὶ ἐβόησεν Ασα πρὸς κύριον θεὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν κύριε οὐκ ἀδυνατεῖ παρὰ σοὶ σῴζειν ἐν πολλοῖς καὶ ἐν ὀλίγοις κατίσχυσον ἡμᾶς κύριε ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ὅτι ἐπὶ σοὶ πεποίθαμεν καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἤλθαμεν ἐπὶ τὸ πλῆθος τὸ πολὺ τοῦτο κύριε ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν μὴ κατισχυσάτω πρὸς σὲ ἄνθρωπος

11 καὶ ἐπάταξεν κύριος τοὺς Αἰθίοπας ἐναντίον Ιουδα καὶ ἔφυγον οἱ Αἰθίοπες

12 καὶ κατεδίωξεν Ασα καὶ ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ ἕως Γεδωρ καὶ ἔπεσον Αἰθίοπες ὥστε μὴ εἶναι ἐν αὐτοῖς περιποίησιν ὅτι συνετρίβησαν ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἐναντίον τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐσκύλευσαν σκῦλα πολλά

13 καὶ ἐξέκοψαν τὰς κώμας αὐτῶν κύκλῳ Γεδωρ ὅτι ἐγενήθη ἔκστασις κυρίου ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς καὶ ἐσκύλευσαν πάσας τὰς πόλεις αὐτῶν ὅτι πολλὰ σκῦλα ἐγενήθη αὐτοῖς

14 καί γε σκηνὰς κτήσεων τοὺς Αμαζονεῖς ἐξέκοψαν καὶ ἔλαβον πρόβατα πολλὰ καὶ καμήλους καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν εἰς Ιερουσαλημ

1 Dormivit autem Abia cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in civitate David: regnavitque Asa filius ejus pro eo, in cujus diebus quievit terra annis decem.

2 Fecit autem Asa quod bonum et placitum erat in conspectu Dei sui, et subvertit altaria peregrini cultus, et excelsa.

3 Et confregit statuas, lucosque succidit:

4 et præcepit Judæ ut quæreret Dominum Deum patrum suorum, et faceret legem, et universa mandata:

5 et abstulit de cunctis urbibus Juda aras et fana, et regnavit in pace.

6 Ædificavit quoque urbes munitas in Juda, quia quietus erat, et nulla temporibus ejus bella surrexerant, pacem Domino largiente.

7 Dixit autem Judæ: Ædificemus civitates istas, et vallemus muris, et roboremus turribus, et portis, et seris, donec a bellis quieta sunt omnia, eo quod quæsierimus Dominum Deum patrum nostrorum, et dederit nobis pacem per gyrum. Ædificaverunt igitur, et nullum in exstruendo impedimentum fuit.

8 Habuit autem Asa in exercitu suo portantium scuta et hastas de Juda trecenta millia, de Benjamin vero scutariorum et sagittariorum ducenta octoginta millia: omnes isti viri fortissimi.

9 Egressus est autem contra eos Zara Æthiops cum exercitu suo, decies centena millia, et curribus trecentis: et venit usque Maresa.

10 Porro Asa perrexit obviam ei, et instruxit aciem ad bellum in valle Sephata, quæ est juxta Maresa:

11 et invocavit Dominum Deum, et ait: Domine, non est apud te ulla distantia, utrum in paucis auxilieris, an in pluribus. Adjuva nos, Domine Deus noster: in te enim, et in tuo nomine habentes fiduciam, venimus contra hanc multitudinem. Domine, Deus noster tu es: non prævaleat contra te homo.

12 Exterruit itaque Dominus Æthiopes coram Asa et Juda: fugeruntque Æthiopes.

13 Et persecutus est eos Asa, et populus qui cum eo erat, usque Gerara: et ruerunt Æthiopes usque ad internecionem, quia Domino cædente contriti sunt, et exercitu illius præliante. Tulerunt ergo spolia multa,

14 et percusserunt civitates omnes per circuitum Geraræ: grandis quippe cunctos terror invaserat: et diripuerunt urbes, et multam prædam asportaverunt.

15 Sed et caulas ovium destruentes, tulerunt pecorum infinitam multitudinem, et camelorum: reversique sunt in Jerusalem.
