2 Chronicles 13:14-18

14The men of Judah turned around and realized they were being attacked from the front and the rear. So they cried out for help to the Lord. The priests blew their trumpets,

15and the men of Judah gave the battle cry. As the men of Judah gave the battle cry, the Lord struck down Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

16The Israelites fled from before the Judahite army, and God handed them over to the men of Judah.

17Abijah and his army thoroughly defeated them; 500,000 well-trained Israelite men fell dead.

18That day the Israelites were defeated; the men of Judah prevailed because they relied on the Lord God of their ancestors.
