2 Chronicles 13:14-22 ▼

14 And Judah turns, and behold, the battle [is] against them, before and behind, and they cry to YHWH, and the priests are blowing with trumpets,

15 and the men of Judah shout; and it comes to pass, at the shouting of the men of Judah, that God has struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

16 And the sons of Israel flee from the face of Judah, and God gives them into their hand,

17 and Abijah and his people strike among them a great striking, and five hundred thousand chosen men of Israel fall wounded.

18 And the sons of Israel are humbled at that time, and the sons of Judah are strong, for they have leaned on YHWH, God of their fathers.

19 And Abijah pursues after Jeroboam and captures cities from him: Beth-El and its small towns, and Jeshanah and its small towns, and Ephraim and its small towns.

20 And Jeroboam has not retained power anymore in the days of Abijah, and YHWH strikes him, and he dies.

21 And Abijah strengthens himself, and takes fourteen wives for himself, and begets twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters;

22 and the rest of the matters of Abijah, and his ways, and his words, are written in the commentary of the prophet Iddo.
