Compare all

9 ^aThen Zerah the Ethiopian came out against them with an army of a million men and three hundred chariots, and he came to ^bMareshah.

10 So Asa went out against him, and they set the troops in battle array in the Valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.

11 And Asa ^acried out to the Lord his God, and said, “Lord, it is ^bnothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power; help us, O Lord our God, for we rest on You, and ^cin Your name we go against this multitude. O Lord, You are our God; do not let man prevail against You!”

12 So the Lord ^astruck the Ethiopians before Asa and Judah, and the Ethiopians fled.

13 And Asa and the people who were with him pursued them to ^aGerar. So the Ethiopians were overthrown, and they could not recover, for they were broken before the Lord and His army. And they carried away very much¹ spoil.

14 Then they defeated all the cities around Gerar, for ^athe fear of the Lord came upon them; and they plundered all the cities, for there was exceedingly much¹ spoil in them.

15 They also¹ attacked the livestock enclosures, and carried off sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem.
