2 Chronicles 14:1-8

1SoH6213 Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buriedH6213 him in the city of David, and AsaH609 his son reigned in his stead: in his days the land was quiet ten years.

2And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God:

3for he tookH853 away the strange altars, and the high placesH559, and brake down the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim;

4and commanded JudahH3063 to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, and to doH5493 the law and the commandment.

5Also he took awayH5973 out of all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 the high places and the sun-images: and the kingdom was quietH8252 beforeH5973 him.

6And he builtH1129 fenced citiesH5892 in JudahH3063: for the landH776 was quiet, and he had no war in thoseH428 years; becauseH3588 the LORDH3068 had givenH5117 him restH5117.

7For he said unto JudahH3063, LetH1961 us build theseH428 cities, and makeH5375 aboutH1961 them walls, and towersH5375, gates, and bars; the land is yet before us, becauseH3605 weH3605 have sought the LORD our God; weH3605 have sought him, and he hath given us restH1961 on everyH3605 side. SoH1961 they built and prospered.

8And Asa had an armyH2428 that bare bucklers and spears, outH3318 of Judah threeH7969 hundredH3967 thousandH505; and outH3318 of Benjamin, that bare shields and drew bows, twoH3967 hundredH3967 and fourscore thousandH505: an these were mightyH2428 men of valour.
