14:11And Asa cried unto the Lord his God, and said, Lord, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O Lord our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O Lord, thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee.

14:12So the Lord smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
