LUT Und Assa rief an den HErrn, seinen GOtt, und sprach: HErr, es ist bei dir kein Unterschied, helfen unter vielen, oder da keine Kraft ist. Hilf uns, HErr, unser GOtt; denn wir verlassen uns auf dich, und in deinem Namen sind wir kommen wider diese Menge. HErr, unser GOtt, wider dich vermag kein Mensch etwas.
(And Assa rief at the HErrn, his God, and spoke: HErr, it is bei you kein Unterschied, helfen under vielen, or there no Kraft is. Hilf uns, HErr, unser God; because wir verlassen uns on dich, and in deinem names are wir coming against diese Menge. HErr, unser God, against you/yourself vermag kein person etwas.)

BRN And Asa cried to the Lord his God, and said, O Lord, it is not impossible with thee to save by many or by few: strengthen us, O Lord our God; for we trust in thee, and in thy name have we come against this great multitude. O Lord our God, let not man prevail against thee.
BrLXX Καὶ ἐβόησεν Ἀσὰ πρὸς Κύριον Θεὸν αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπε, Κύριε, οὐκ ἀδυνατεῖ παρὰ σοὶ σώζειν ἐν πολλοῖς καὶ ἐν ὀλίγοις· κατίσχυσον ἡμᾶς Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, ὅτι ἐπὶ σοὶ πεποιθαμεν, καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἤλθομεν ἐπὶ τὸ πλῆθος τὸ πολὺ τοῦτο· Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν, μὴ κατισχυσάτω πρὸς σὲ ἄνθρωπος.
(Kai eboaʸsen Asa pros Kurion Theon autou, kai eipe, Kurie, ouk adunatei para soi sōzein en pollois kai en oligois; katisⱪuson haʸmas Kurie ho Theos haʸmōn, hoti epi soi pepoithamen, kai epi tōi onomati sou aʸlthomen epi to plaʸthos to polu touto; Kurie ho Theos haʸmōn, maʸ katisⱪusatō pros se anthrōpos. )
14:7-14 Solomon had prayed that the Lord would hear his people when they were led into battle (6:34). In the battle against Zerah, God responded to such a prayer.
• Ethiopian (literally “Cushite”) might refer to someone from southern Egypt (Nubia) or a Midianite territory northeast of Aqabah (see Num 12:1; Hab 3:7). However, the mention of Libya in 2 Chr 16:8, the size of the battle (comparable to the attack of Shishak against Rehoboam in 12:3), and the location of Mareshah in the west of Judah indicate that Zerah was an Egyptian; he is otherwise unknown. He might have been a Nubian general dispatched by Osorkon I, the Libyan pharaoh who ruled Egypt between the tenth and fourteenth years of Asa (900–897 BC). Another view is that Shishak established a buffer state around Gerar, supported by Nubian mercenaries that invaded Judah. The account, however, only says that Asa and his armies pursued the armies south to Gerar and took a vast amount of plunder, particularly from the herdsmen living in tents around the cities.
