1 So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in David’s city; and Asa his son reigned in his place. In his days, the land was quiet ten years.
2 Asa hizo lo bueno y lo recto ante el Señor su Dios.
2 Asa did that which was good and right in Yahweh his God’s eyes,
3 Quitó los altares de dioses extranjeros y los santuarios en los lugares altos. Rompió las columnas sagradas y cortó los postes de Asera.
3 for he took away the foreign altars and the high places, broke down the pillars, cut down the Asherah poles,
4 Ordenó a Judá buscar al Señor, Dios de sus antepasados, y cumplir sus leyes y mandamientos.
4 and commanded Judah to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and to obey his law and command.
5 Quitó los santuarios en los lugares altos y las imágenes del sol de todas las ciudades de Judá. El reino tuvo paz bajo su gobierno.
5 Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the sun images; and the kingdom was quiet before him.
6 Construyó ciudades fortificadas en Judá. La tierra tenía paz y no hubo guerras durante esos años, porque el Señor le había dado descanso.
6 He built fortified cities in Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because Yahweh had given him rest.
7 Asa dijo a Judá: «Construyamos estas ciudades y rodeémoslas de murallas con torres, puertas y barras. La tierra sigue siendo nuestra porque hemos sido fieles al Señor nuestro Dios. Le hemos sido fieles, y él nos ha dado paz por todas partes». Construyeron las ciudades y les fue bien.
7 For he said to Judah, “Let’s build these cities and make walls around them, with towers, gates, and bars. The land is yet before us, because we have sought Yahweh our God. We have sought him, and he has given us rest on every side.” So they built and prospered.
8 Asa tenía un ejército de trescientos mil hombres de Judá, armados con escudos y lanzas, y doscientos ochenta mil de Benjamín, armados con escudos y arcos. Todos eran soldados.
8 Asa had an army of three hundred thousand out of Judah who bore bucklers and spears, and two hundred eighty thousand out of Benjamin who bore shields and drew bows. All these were mighty men of valor.
9 Zera el etíope salió contra ellos con un millón de soldados y trescientos carros de guerra, y llegó a Maresa.
9 Zerah the Ethiopian came out against them with an army of a million troops and three hundred chariots, and he came to Mareshah.
10 Asa salió a su encuentro y formó sus tropas en el valle al norte de Maresa.
10 Then Asa went out to meet him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
11 Asa oró al Señor su Dios y dijo: «Señor, solo tú puedes ayudar al débil contra el fuerte. Ayúdanos, Señor nuestro Dios, porque confiamos en ti y en tu nombre hemos venido contra este gran ejército. Señor, tú eres nuestro Dios. ¡No permitas que el poder humano venza al tuyo!».
11 Asa cried to Yahweh his God, and said, “Yahweh, there is no one besides you to help, between the mighty and him who has no strength. Help us, Yahweh our God; for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. Yahweh, you are our God. Don’t let man prevail against you.”
12 El Señor llenó de temor a los etíopes ante Asa y Judá, y ellos huyeron.
12 So Yahweh struck the Ethiopians before Asa and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
13 Asa y sus hombres los persiguieron hasta Gerar. La derrota de los etíopes fue tan grande que no pudieron reorganizar su ejército. Quedaron destruidos ante el Señor y su ejército. Los hombres de Asa se llevaron un gran botín.
13 Asa and the people who were with him pursued them to Gerar. So many of the Ethiopians fell that they could not recover themselves, for they were destroyed before Yahweh and before his army. Judah’s army carried away very much booty.
14 Atacaron todas las ciudades de los alrededores de Gerar, porque el Señor las había llenado de temor. Saquearon las ciudades, que tenían muchas riquezas.
14 They struck all the cities around Gerar, for the fear of Yahweh came on them. They plundered all the cities, for there was much plunder in them.
