In his days the land was quiet ten years.<br /> <br /> '''2''' And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the Lord his God:<br /> <br /> '''3''' For he took away the altars of the strange gods, and the high places, and brake down the images, and cut down the groves:<br /> <br /> '''4''' And commanded Judah to seek the Lord God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.<br /> <br /> '''5''' Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the images: and the kingdom was quiet before him.<br /> <br /> '''6''' And he built fenced cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; because the Lord had given him rest.<br /> <br /> '''7''' Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us; because we have sought the Lord our God, we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered.<br /> <br /> '''8''' And Asa had an army of men that bare targets and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bare shields and drew bows, two hundred and fourscore thousand: all these were mighty men of valour.<br /> <br /> '''9''' And there came out against them Zerah the Ethiopian with an host of a thousand thousand, and three hundred chariots; and came unto Mareshah.<br /> <br /> '''10''' Then Asa went out against him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.<br /> <br /> '''11''' And Asa cried unto the Lord his God, and said, Lord, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O Lord our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O Lord, thou art our God; let no man prevail against thee.<br /> <br /> '''12''' So the Lord smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.<br /> <br /> '''13''' And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them unto Gerar: and the Ethiopians were overthrown, that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before the Lord, and before his host; and they carried away very much spoil.<br /> <br /> '''14''' And they smote all the cities round about Gerar; for the fear of the Lord came upon them: and they spoiled all the cities; for there was exceeding much spoil in them.<br /> <br /> '''15''' They smote also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Footnotes==<br /> &lt;small&gt;&lt;references/&gt;&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> {{Template:Historical Books}}<br /> {{Template:Old Testament}}<br /> [[Category:Conservapedia Study Bible]]</div>
