2Ch 14 (King James)

¹ So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead. In his days the land was quiet ten years.
² And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God:
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:
⁴ And commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
¹⁰ Then Asa went out against him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
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.
¹² So the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
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.
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.
¹⁵ They smote also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem.

2Ch 14 (Vulgate)

¹ Dormivit autem Abia cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in civitate David : regnavitque Asa filius ejus pro eo, in cujus diebus quievit terra annis decem.
² Fecit autem Asa quod bonum et placitum erat in conspectu Dei sui, et subvertit altaria peregrini cultus, et excelsa.
³ Et confregit statuas, lucosque succidit :
⁴ et præcepit Judæ ut quæreret Dominum Deum patrum suorum, et faceret legem, et universa mandata :
⁵ et abstulit de cunctis urbibus Juda aras et fana, et regnavit in pace.
⁶ Ædificavit quoque urbes munitas in Juda, quia quietus erat, et nulla temporibus ejus bella surrexerant, pacem Domino largiente.
⁷ Dixit autem Judæ : Ædificemus civitates istas, et vallemus muris, et roboremus turribus, et portis, et seris, donec a bellis quieta sunt omnia, eo quod quæsierimus Dominum Deum patrum nostrorum, et dederit nobis pacem per gyrum. Ædificaverunt igitur, et nullum in exstruendo impedimentum fuit.
⁸ Habuit autem Asa in exercitu suo portantium scuta et hastas de Juda trecenta millia, de Benjamin vero scutariorum et sagittariorum ducenta octoginta millia : omnes isti viri fortissimi.
⁹ Egressus est autem contra eos Zara Æthiops cum exercitu suo, decies centena millia, et curribus trecentis : et venit usque Maresa.
¹⁰ Porro Asa perrexit obviam ei, et instruxit aciem ad bellum in valle Sephata, quæ est juxta Maresa :
¹¹ et invocavit Dominum Deum, et ait : Domine, non est apud te ulla distantia, utrum in paucis auxilieris, an in pluribus. Adjuva nos, Domine Deus noster : in te enim, et in tuo nomine habentes fiduciam, venimus contra hanc multitudinem. Domine, Deus noster tu es : non prævaleat contra te homo.
¹² Exterruit itaque Dominus Æthiopes coram Asa et Juda : fugeruntque Æthiopes.
¹³ Et persecutus est eos Asa, et populus qui cum eo erat, usque Gerara : et ruerunt Æthiopes usque ad internecionem, quia Domino cædente contriti sunt, et exercitu illius præliante. Tulerunt ergo spolia multa,
¹⁴ et percusserunt civitates omnes per circuitum Geraræ : grandis quippe cunctos terror invaserat : et diripuerunt urbes, et multam prædam asportaverunt.
¹⁵ Sed et caulas ovium destruentes, tulerunt pecorum infinitam multitudinem, et camelorum : reversique sunt in Jerusalem.
