2 Chronicles 14:1-9

So Abijah
<029>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and they buried
<06912> (8799)

him in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_:

and Asa
<0609>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead. In his days
<03117>

the land
<0776>

was quiet
<08252> (8804)

ten
<06235>

years
<08141>_.

And Asa
<0609>

did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] good
<02896>

and right
<03477>

in the eyes
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>_:

For he took away
<05493> (8686)

the altars
<04196>

of the strange
<05236>

[gods], and the high places
<01116>_,

and brake down
<07665> (8762)

the images
<04676>_,

and cut down
<01438> (8762)

the groves
<0842>_:

{images: Heb. statues}

And commanded
<0559> (8799)

Judah
<03063>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>_,

and to do
<06213> (8800)

the law
<08451>

and the commandment
<04687>_.

Also he took away
<05493> (8686)

out of all the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>

the high places
<01116>

and the images
<02553>_:

and the kingdom
<04467>

was quiet
<08252> (8799)

before
<06440>

him. {images: Heb. sun images}

And he built
<01129> (8799)

fenced
<04694>

cities
<05892>

in Judah
<03063>_:

for the land
<0776>

had rest
<08252> (8804)_,

and he had no war
<04421>

in those years
<08141>_;

because the LORD
<03068>

had given him rest
<05117> (8689)_.

Therefore he said
<0559> (8799)

unto Judah
<03063>_,

Let us build
<01129> (8799)

these cities
<05892>_,

and make about
<05437> (8686)

[them] walls
<02346>_,

and towers
<04026>_,

gates
<01817>_,

and bars
<01280>_,

[while] the land
<0776>

[is] yet before
<06440>

us; because we have sought
<01875> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

we have sought
<01875> (8804)

[him], and he hath given us rest
<05117> (8799)

on every side
<05439>_.

So they built
<01129> (8799)

and prospered
<06743> (8686)_.

And Asa
<0609>

had an army
<02428>

[of men] that bare
<05375> (8802)

targets
<06793>

and spears
<07420>_,

out of Judah
<03063>

three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

thousand
<0505>_;

and out of Benjamin
<01144>_,

that bare
<05375> (8802)

shields
<04043>

and drew
<01869> (8802)

bows
<07198>_,

two hundred
<03967>

and fourscore
<08084>

thousand
<0505>_:

all these [were] mighty men
<01368>

of valour
<02428>_.

And there came out
<03318> (8799)

against them Zerah
<02226>

the Ethiopian
<03569>

with an host
<02428>

of a thousand
<0505>

thousand
<0505>_,

and three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

chariots
<04818>_;

and came
<0935> (8799)

unto Mareshah
<04762>_.
