2 Chronicles 14:7 in Context — 2 Chronicles 14
5 Il bâtit des villes fortes en Juda; car le pays fut tranquille et il n’y eut pas de guerre contre lui pendant ces années-là, parce que l’Éternel lui donna du repos.
6 Il dit à Juda: Bâtissons ces villes, et entourons-les de murs, de tours, de portes et de barres; le pays est encore devant nous, car nous avons recherché l’Éternel, notre Dieu, nous l’avons recherché, et il nous a donné du repos de tous côtés. Ils bâtirent donc, et réussirent.
7 Asa avait une armée de trois cent mille hommes de Juda, portant le bouclier et la lance, et de deux cent quatre-vingt mille de Benjamin, portant le bouclier et tirant de l’arc, tous vaillants hommes.
8 Zérach, l’Éthiopien, sortit contre eux avec une armée d’un million d’hommes et trois cents chars, et il s’avança jusqu’à Maréscha.
9 Asa marcha au-devant de lui, et ils se rangèrent en bataille dans la vallée de Tsephata, près de Maréscha.
