2 Chronicles 13:14-18

Context
13:14 The men of Judah turned around and realized they were being attacked from the front and the rear. 1  So they cried out for help to the Lord. The priests blew their trumpets, 13:15 and the men of Judah gave 2  the battle cry. As the men of Judah gave the battle cry, the Lord struck down Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah. 13:16 The Israelites fled from before the Judahite army, 3  and God handed them over to the men of Judah. 4  13:17 Abijah and his army thoroughly defeated them; 5  500,000 well-trained Israelite men fell dead. 6  13:18 That day 7  the Israelites were defeated; the men of Judah prevailed because they relied on the Lord God of their ancestors.
