| 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. | καὶ ἐποίησεν τὸ καλὸν καὶ τὸ εὐθὲς ἐνώπιον κυρίου θεοῦ αὐτοῦ |
| 2 | And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God: | καὶ ἀπέστησεν τὰ θυσιαστήρια τῶν ἀλλοτρίων καὶ τὰ ὑψηλὰ καὶ συνέτριψεν τὰς στήλας καὶ ἐξέκοψεν τὰ ἄλση |
| 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: | καὶ εἶπεν τῷ ιουδα ἐκζητῆσαι τὸν κύριον θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν καὶ ποιῆσαι τὸν νόμον καὶ τὰς ἐντολάς |
| 4 | And commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment. | καὶ ἀπέστησεν ἀπὸ πασῶν τῶν πόλεων ιουδα τὰ θυσιαστήρια καὶ τὰ εἴδωλα καὶ εἰρήνευσεν |
| 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. | πόλεις τειχήρεις ἐν γῇ ιουδα ὅτι εἰρήνευσεν ἡ γῆ καὶ οὐκ ἦν αὐτῷ πόλεμος ἐν τοῖς ἔτεσιν τούτοις ὅτι κατέπαυσεν αὐτῷ κύριος |
| 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. | καὶ εἶπεν τῷ ιουδα οἰκοδομήσωμεν τὰς πόλεις ταύτας καὶ ποιήσωμεν τείχη καὶ πύργους καὶ πύλας καὶ μοχλοὺς ἐν ᾧ τῆς γῆς κυριεύσομεν ὅτι καθὼς ἐξεζητήσαμεν κύριον θεὸν ἡμῶν ἐξεζήτησεν ἡμᾶς καὶ κατέπαυσεν ἡμᾶς κυκλόθεν καὶ εὐόδωσεν ἡμῖν |
| 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 ev | καὶ ἐγένετο τῷ ασα δύναμις ὁπλοφόρων αἰρόντων θυρεοὺς καὶ δόρατα ἐν γῇ ιουδα τριακόσιαι χιλιάδες καὶ ἐν γῇ βενιαμιν πελτασταὶ καὶ τοξόται διακόσιαι καὶ πεντήκοντα χιλιάδες πάντες οὗτοι πολεμισταὶ δυνάμεως |
| 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. | καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ζαρε ὁ αἰθίοψ ἐν δυνάμει ἐν χιλίαις χιλιάσιν καὶ ἅρμασιν τριακοσίοις καὶ ἦλθεν ἕως μαρισα |
| 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. | καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ασα εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ καὶ παρετάξατο πόλεμον ἐν τῇ φάραγγι κατὰ βορρᾶν μαρισης |
| 10 | Then Asa went out against him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah. | καὶ ἐβόησεν ασα πρὸς κύριον θεὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν κύριε οὐκ ἀδυνατεῖ παρὰ σοὶ σῴζειν ἐν πολλοῖς καὶ ἐν ὀλίγοις κατίσχυσον ἡμᾶς κύριε ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ὅτι ἐπὶ σοὶ πεποίθαμεν καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἤλθαμεν ἐπὶ τὸ πλῆθος τὸ πολὺ τοῦτο κύριε ὁ θεὸ |
| 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, | καὶ ἐπάταξεν κύριος τοὺς αἰθίοπας ἐναντίον ιουδα καὶ ἔφυγον οἱ αἰθίοπες |
| 12 | So the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled. | καὶ κατεδίωξεν ασα καὶ ὁ λαὸς αὐτοῦ ἕως γεδωρ καὶ ἔπεσον αἰθίοπες ὥστε μὴ εἶναι ἐν αὐτοῖς περιποίησιν ὅτι συνετρίβησαν ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἐναντίον τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐσκύλευσαν σκῦλα πολλά |
| 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 | καὶ ἐξέκοψαν τὰς κώμας αὐτῶν κύκλῳ γεδωρ ὅτι ἐγενήθη ἔκστασις κυρίου ἐπ' αὐτούς καὶ ἐσκύλευσαν πάσας τὰς πόλεις αὐτῶν ὅτι πολλὰ σκῦλα ἐγενήθη αὐτοῖς |
| 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. | καί γε σκηνὰς κτήσεων τοὺς αμαζονεῖς ἐξέκοψαν καὶ ἔλαβον πρόβατα πολλὰ καὶ καμήλους καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν εἰς ιερουσαλημ |
| 15 | They smote also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem. |
