1 Abías murió y fue enterrado en la Ciudad de David. Su hijo Asa tomó el relevo como rey. Durante diez años de su reinado la nación estuvo en paz.
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 que era bueno y correcto a los ojos del Señor.
2 Asa did that which was good and right in Yahweh his God’s eyes,
3 Derribó los altares y los lugares altos extranjeros, rompió sus pilares sagrados 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 que adorara al Señor, el Dios de sus antepasados, y que observara la ley y los mandamientos.
4 and commanded Judah to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and to obey his law and command.
5 También derribó los lugares altos y los altares de incienso de todas las ciudades de Judá. Bajo su gobierno el reino estaba en paz.
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 Como el país estaba en paz, pudo reconstruir las ciudades fortificadas de Judá. No hubo guerras durante estos años porque el Señor le había concedido la paz.
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 Entonces Asa le dijo al pueblo de Judá: “Construyamos estas ciudades y rodeémoslas de murallas y torres y puertas enrejadas. La tierra sigue siendo nuestra, porque seguimos adorando al Señor, nuestro Dios. Lo adoramos, y él nos ha dado la paz de todos nuestros enemigos”. Así que comenzaron los proyectos de construcción, y los completaron con éxito.
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 compuesto por trescientos mil hombres de Judá que llevaban grandes escudos y lanzas, y doscientos ochenta mil hombres de Benjamín que llevaban escudos regulares y arcos. Todos ellos eran valientes guerreros.
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 Zeraa el etíope, los atacó con un ejército de mil veces mil hombres y trescientos carros, avanzando hasta 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 enfrentarse a él, alineándose para la batalla en el Valle de Cefatá, en 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 pidió ayuda al Señor, su Dios: “Señor, no hay nadie fuera de ti que pueda ayudar al impotente contra el poderoso. Por favor, ayúdanos, Señor, nuestro Dios, porque confiamos en ti. Hemos venido contra esta horda porque confiamos en ti, Señor. Tú eres nuestro Dios. No permitas que un simple ser humano te venza”.
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 hirió a los etíopes frente a Asa y Judá, y los etíopes huyeron.
12 So Yahweh struck the Ethiopians before Asa and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
13 Asa y su ejército los persiguieron hasta Gerar. Los etíopes murieron; no hubo ninguno que sobreviviera, pues quedaron atrapados entre el Señor y su ejército. Los hombres de Judá se llevaron una gran cantidad de 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 También atacaron todas las ciudades alrededor de Gerar, porque sus habitantes estaban aterrorizados por el Señor. Los hombres de Judá tomaron una gran cantidad de botín de todas las ciudades.
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.
15 Luego atacaron los campamentos de los pastores y tomaron muchas ovejas y camellos. Luego regresaron a Jerusalén.
15 They also struck the tents of those who had livestock, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, then returned to Jerusalem.
