| 1 | So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Asa his son reigned in his place. In his days the land was quiet ten years. | 2Ch 9:31 1Ki 2:10 1Ki 14:31 |
| 2 | Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of Yahweh his God: | 2Ch 31:20 1Ki 15:11 1Ki 15:14 Lk 1:75 |
| 3 | for he took away the foreign altars, and the high places, and broke down the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim, | Dt 7:5 1Ki 11:7 1Ki 11:8 1Ki 14:22-24 |
| 4 | and commanded Judah to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment. | 2Ch 29:21 2Ch 29:27 2Ch 29:30 2Ch 30:12 2Ch 33:16 2Ch 34:32 2Ch 34:33 Gn 18:19 Jsh 24:15 1Sa 3:13 Ezr 10:7-12 Ne 13:9 Ne 13:19-22 Ps 101:2-8 |
| 5 | Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the sun-images: and the kingdom was quiet before him. | 2Ch 34:4 |
| 6 | He built fortified cities in Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because Yahweh had given him rest. | 2Ch 8:2-6 2Ch 11:5-12 |
| 7 | For he said to Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars; the land is yet before us, because we have sought Yahweh our God; we have sought him, and he has given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered. | 2Ch 32:5 Ac 9:31 |
| 8 | Asa had an army that bore bucklers and spears, out of Judah three hundred thousand; and out of Benjamin, that bore shields and drew bows, two hundred eighty thousand: all these were mighty men of valor. | 2Ch 11:1 2Ch 13:3 2Ch 17:14-19 2Ch 25:5 |
| 9 | There came out against them Zerah the Ethiopian with an army of a million troops, and three hundred chariots; and he came to Mareshah. | 2Ch 12:2 2Ch 12:3 2Ch 16:8 2Ki 19:9 Isa 8:9 Isa 8:10 Ezk 30:5 Rev 16:14 |
| 10 | Then Asa went out to meet him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah. | Jsh 19:4 Jg 1:17 |
| 11 | Asa cried to Yahweh his God, and said, Yahweh, there is none besides you to help, between the mighty and him who has no strength: help us, Yahweh our God; for we rely on you, and in your name are we come against this multitude. Yahweh, you are our God; don`t let man prevail against you. | 2Ch 13:14 2Ch 18:31 2Ch 32:20 Ex 14:10 1Ch 5:20 Ps 18:6 Ps 22:5 Ps 34:6 Ps 50:15 Ps 91:15 Ps 120:1 Ac 2:21 |
| 12 | So Yahweh struck the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled. | 2Ch 13:15 2Ch 20:22 Ex 14:25 Dt 28:7 Dt 32:39 Jsh 10:10 Ps 60:12 Ps 136:17 Ps 136:18 1Co 9:26 1Co 15:57 |
| 13 | Asa and the people who were with him pursued them to Gerar: and there fell of the Ethiopians so many that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before Yahweh, and before his host; and they carried away very much booty. | 2Ch 14:14 Gn 10:1 Gn 10:19 Gn 20:1 Gn 26:1 |
| 14 | They struck all the cities round about Gerar; for the fear of Yahweh came on them: and they despoiled all the cities; for there was much spoil in them. | 2Ch 17:10 2Ch 20:29 Gn 35:5 Dt 2:25 Jsh 2:9-11 Jsh 2:24-11 Jsh 5:1 1Sa 14:15 2Ki 7:6 Jb 15:21 Ps 48:5 Ps 48:6 Isa 31:9 |
| 15 | They struck also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep in abundance, and camels, and returned to Jerusalem. | 1Ch 4:41 |
