2 Chronicles 14:11-15

Good News Translation

¹¹ Asa prayed to the Lord his God, “O Lord, you can help a weak army as easily as a powerful one. Help us now, O Lord our God, because we are relying on you, and in your name we have come out to fight against this huge army. Lord, you are our God; no one can hope to defeat you.”

¹² The Lord defeated the Ethiopian^[a] army when Asa and the Judean army attacked them. They fled, ¹³ and Asa and his troops pursued them as far as Gerar. So many of the Ethiopians^[b] were killed that the army was unable to rally and fight.^[c] They were overpowered by the Lord and his army, and the army took large amounts of loot. ¹⁴ Then they were able to destroy the cities in the area around Gerar, because the people there were terrified of the Lord. The army plundered all those cities and captured large amounts of loot. ¹⁵ They also attacked the camps of some shepherds, capturing large numbers of sheep and camels. Then they returned to Jerusalem.
