2 Chronicles 14:7 in Context — 2 Chronicles 14
5 Tirou também de todas as cidades de Judá os altos e as imagens, e esteve o reino quieto diante dele.
6 E edificou cidades fortes em Judá, porquanto havia paz na terra, e não havia guerra contra ele em aqueles tempos; porque o SENHOR lhe havia dado repouso.
7 Disse por tanto a Judá: Edifiquemos estas cidades, e as cerquemos de muros com torres, portas, e barras, já que a terra é nossa: porque buscamos ao SENHOR nosso Deus, temos o buscado, e ele nos deu repouso de todas as partes. Edificaram, pois, e foram prósperos.
8 Teve também Asa exército que trazia escudos e lanças: de Judá trezentos mil, e de Benjamim duzentos e oitenta mil que traziam escudos e flechavam arcos; todos eram homens hábeis.
9 E saiu contra eles Zerá etíope com um exército de mil milhares, e trezentos carros; e vinho até Maressa.
