ETHIOPIA, Defeated by Asa

2 Chronicles 14:9-15

9. Zerah the ETHIOPIAn came out against them with an army of a million troops and three hundred chariots, and he came to Mareshah.
10. Then Asa went out to meet him, and they set the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
11. Asa cried to the LORD his God, and said, "The LORD, there is no one besides you to help, between the mighty and him who has no strength. Help us, the LORD our God; for we rely on you, and in your name are we come against this multitude. The LORD, you are our God. Don't let man prevail against you."
12. So the LORD struck the ETHIOPIAns before Asa and before Judah; and the ETHIOPIAns fled.
13. Asa and the people who were with him pursued them to Gerar: and so many of the ETHIOPIAns fell that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before the LORD and before his army; and they carried away very much booty.
14. They struck all the cities around Gerar; for the fear of the LORD came on them, and they plundered all the cities; for there was much plunder in them.
15. They also struck the tents of livestock, and carried away sheep in abundance, and camels, and returned to Jerusalem.

2 Chronicles 16:8

Weren't the ETHIOPIAns and the Lubim a huge army, with chariots and horsemen exceeding many? Yet, because you relied on The LORD, he delivered them into your hand.
