14:1 And
Abijah
lieth
with
his
fathers,
and
they
bury
him
in
the
city
of
David,
and
reign
doth
Asa
his
son
in
his
stead:
in
his
days
was
the
land
quiet
ten
years.
14:2 And
Asa
doth
that
which
is
good,
and
that
which
is
right,
in
the
eyes
of
Jehovah
his
God,
14:3 and
turneth
aside
the
altars
of
the
stranger,
and
the
high
places,
and
breaketh
the
standing-pillars,
and
cutteth
down
the
shrines,
14:4 and
saith
to
Judah
to
seek
Jehovah,
God
of
their
fathers,
and
to
do
the
law
and
the
command;
14:5 and
he
turneth
aside
out
of
all
cities
of
Judah
the
high
places
and
the
images,
and
the
kingdom
is
quiet
before
him.
14:6 And
he
buildeth
cities
of
bulwarks
in
Judah,
for
the
land
hath
quiet,
and
there
is
no
war
with
him
in
these
years,
because
Jehovah
hath
given
rest
to
him.
14:7 And
he
saith
to
Judah,
`Let
us
build
these
cities,
and
compass
[them]
with
wall,
and
towers,
two-leaved
doors,
and
bars,
while
the
land
[is]
before
us,
because
we
have
sought
Jehovah
our
God,
we
have
sought,
and
He
giveth
rest
to
us
round
about;'
and
they
build
and
prosper.
14:8 And
there
is
to
Asa
a
force
bearing
target
and
spear,
out
of
Judah
three
hundred
thousand,
and
out
of
Benjamin,
bearing
shield
and
treading
bow,
two
hundred
and
eighty
thousand:
all
these
[are]
mighty
of
valour.
14:9 And
come
out
unto
them
doth
Zerah
the
Cushite
with
a
force
of
a
thousand
thousand,
and
chariots
three
hundred,
and
he
cometh
in
unto
Mareshah,
14:10 and
Asa
goeth
out
before
him,
and
they
set
battle
in
array
in
the
valley
of
Zephathah
at
Mareshah.
14:11 And
Asa
calleth
unto
Jehovah
his
God,
and
saith,
`Jehovah!
it
is
nothing
with
Thee
to
help,
between
the
mighty
and
those
who
have
no
power;
help
us,
O
Jehovah,
our
God,
for
on
Thee
we
have
leant,
and
in
Thy
name
we
have
come
against
this
multitude;
O
Jehovah,
our
God
thou
[art]
;
let
him
not
prevail
with
Thee--mortal
man!
14:12 And
Jehovah
smiteth
the
Cushim
before
Asa,
and
before
Judah,
and
the
Cushim
flee,
14:13 and
Asa
and
the
people
who
[are]
with
him
pursue
them
even
to
Gerar,
and
there
fall
of
the
Cushim,
for
they
have
no
preserving,
because
they
have
been
broken
before
Jehovah,
and
before
His
camp;
and
they
bear
away
very
much
spoil,
14:14 and
smite
all
the
cities
round
about
Gerar,
for
a
fear
of
Jehovah
hath
been
upon
them,
and
they
spoil
all
the
cities,
for
abundant
spoil
hath
been
in
them;
14:15 and
also
tents
of
cattle
they
have
smitten,
and
they
capture
sheep
in
abundance,
and
camels,
and
turn
back
to
Jerusalem.
