| 14 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 had rest for ten years. | ASA king of Judah. Defeat of Zerah's invading army. 2Chr.14.1-15 | וַיִּשְׁכַּב אֲבִיָּה עִם־אֲבֹתָיו וַיִּקְבְּרוּ אֹתֹו בְּעִיר דָּוִיד וַיִּמְלֹךְ אָסָא בְנֹו תַּחְתָּיו בְּיָמָיו שָׁקְטָה הָאָרֶץ עֶשֶׂר שָׁנִים׃ ף |
|
| 2 | And Asa did what was good and right in the eyes of Yahweh his God. | | וַיַּעַשׂ אָסָא הַטֹּוב וְהַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו׃ |
|
| 3 | He took away the foreign altars and the high places, and broke down the pillars and hewed down the Asherim, | | וַיָּסַר אֶת־מִזְבְּחֹות הַנֵּכָר וְהַבָּמֹות וַיְשַׁבֵּר אֶת־הַמַּצֵּבֹות וַיְגַדַּע אֶת־הָאֲשֵׁרִים׃ |
|
| 4 | and commanded Judah to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and to keep the law and the commandment. | | וַיֹּאמֶר לִיהוּדָה לִדְרֹושׁ אֶת־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי אֲבֹותֵיהֶם וְלַעֲשֹׂות הַתֹּורָה וְהַמִּצְוָה׃ |
|
| 5 | He also took out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the incense altars. And the kingdom had rest under him. | | וַיָּסַר מִכָּל־עָרֵי יְהוּדָה אֶת־הַבָּמֹות וְאֶת־הַחַמָּנִים וַתִּשְׁקֹט הַמַּמְלָכָה לְפָנָיו׃ |
|
| 6 | He built fortified cities in Judah, for the land had rest. He had no war in those years, for Yahweh gave him peace. | | וַיִּבֶן עָרֵי מְצוּרָה בִּיהוּדָה כִּי־שָׁקְטָה הָאָרֶץ וְאֵין־עִמֹּו מִלְחָמָה בַּשָּׁנִים הָאֵלֶּה כִּי־הֵנִיחַ יְהוָה לֹו׃ |
|
| 7 | And he said to Judah, "Let us build these cities, and surround them with walls and towers, gates and bars; the land is still ours, because we have sought Yahweh our God; we have sought him, and he has given us peace on every side." So they built and prospered. | | וַיֹּאמֶר לִיהוּדָה נִבְנֶה אֶת־הֶעָרִים הָאֵלֶּה וְנָסֵב חֹומָה וּמִגְדָּלִים דְּלָתַיִם וּבְרִיחִים עֹודֶנּוּ הָאָרֶץ לְפָנֵינוּ כִּי דָרַשְׁנוּ אֶת־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ דָּרַשְׁנוּ וַיָּנַח לָנוּ מִסָּבִיב וַיִּבְנוּ וַיַּצְלִיחוּ׃ ף |
|
| 8 | And Asa had an army of three hundred thousand from Judah, armed with bucklers and spears, and two hundred and eighty thousand men from Benjamin, that carried shields and drew bows; all these were mighty men of valor. | | וַיְהִי לְאָסָא חַיִל נֹשֵׂא צִנָּה וָרֹמַח מִיהוּדָה שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאֹות אֶלֶף ס וּמִבִּנְיָמִן נֹשְׂאֵי מָגֵן וְדֹרְכֵי קֶשֶׁת מָאתַיִם וּשְׁמֹונִים אָלֶף כָּל־אֵלֶּה גִּבֹּורֵי חָיִל׃ |
|
| 9 | Zerah the Ethiopian came out against them with an army of a million men and three hundred chariots, and came as far as Mareshah. | | וַיֵּצֵא אֲלֵיהֶם זֶרַח הַכּוּשִׁי בְּחַיִל אֶלֶף אֲלָפִים וּמַרְכָּבֹות שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאֹות וַיָּבֹא עַד־מָרֵשָׁה׃ |
|
| 10 | And Asa went out to meet him, and they drew up their lines of battle in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah. | | וַיֵּצֵא אָסָא לְפָנָיו וַיַּעַרְכוּ מִלְחָמָה בְּגֵיא צְפַתָה לְמָרֵשָׁה׃ |
|
| 11 | And Asa cried to Yahweh his God, " O Yahweh, there is none like you to help, between the mighty and the weak. Help us, O Yahweh our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. O Yahweh, you are our God; let not man prevail against you." | | וַיִּקְרָא אָסָא אֶל־יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיו וַיֹּאמַר יְהוָה אֵין־עִמְּךָ לַעְזֹור בֵּין רַב לְאֵין כֹּחַ עָזְרֵנוּ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ כִּי־עָלֶיךָ נִשְׁעַנּוּ וּבְשִׁמְךָ בָאנוּ עַל־הֶהָמֹון הַזֶּה יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ אַתָּה אַל־יַעְצֹר עִמְּךָ אֱנֹושׁ׃ ס |
|
| 12 | So Yahweh defeated the Ethiopians before Asa and before Judah, and the Ethiopians fled. | | וַיִּגֹּף יְהוָה אֶת־הַכּוּשִׁים לִפְנֵי אָסָא וְלִפְנֵי יְהוּדָה וַיָּנֻסוּ הַכּוּשִׁים׃ |
|
| 13 | Asa and the people that were with him pursued them as far as Gerar, and the Ethiopians fell until none remained alive; for they were broken before Yahweh and his army. The men of Judah carried away very much booty. | | וַיִּרְדְּפֵם אָסָא וְהָעָם אֲשֶׁר־עִמֹּו עַד־לִגְרָר וַיִּפֹּל מִכּוּשִׁים לְאֵין לָהֶם מִחְיָה כִּי־נִשְׁבְּרוּ לִפְנֵי־יְהוָה וְלִפְנֵי מַחֲנֵהוּ וַיִּשְׂאוּ שָׁלָל הַרְבֵּה מְאֹד׃ |
|
| 14 | And they smote all the cities round about Gerar, for the fear of Yahweh was upon them. They plundered all the cities, for there was much plunder in them. | | וַיַּכּוּ אֵת כָּל־הֶעָרִים סְבִיבֹות גְּרָר כִּי־הָיָה פַחַד־יְהוָה עֲלֵיהֶם וַיָּבֹזּוּ אֶת־כָּל־הֶעָרִים כִּי־בִזָּה רַבָּה הָיְתָה בָהֶם׃ |
|
| 15 | And they smote the tents of those who had cattle, and carried away sheep in abundance and camels. Then they returned to Jerusalem. | | וְגַם־אָהֳלֵי מִקְנֶה הִכּוּ וַיִּשְׁבּוּ צֹאן לָרֹב וּגְמַלִּים וַיָּשֻׁבוּ יְרוּשָׁלִָם׃ ס |
