2 Chronicles 14:12

---

← 2 Chronicles 14:11	2 Chronicles 14:12 (KJV)	2 Chronicles 14:13 →
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 not man prevail against thee.	So the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.	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.
