New American Standard Bible
Chapter 13
13
But Jeroboam had set an ambush to come from behind, so that
Israel
was in front of Judah and the ambush was behind them.
14
When Judah turned around, behold, they were attacked both from front and rear; so they cried out to the
Lord
, and the priests blew the trumpets.
15
Then the men of Judah raised a war cry, and when the men of Judah raised the war cry, God defeated Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
16
When the sons of Israel fled from Judah, God handed them over to them.
17
Abijah and his people defeated them with a great slaughter, so that five hundred thousand chosen men of Israel fell slain.
18
The sons of Israel were subdued at that time, and the sons of Judah conquered because they trusted in the
Lord
, the God of their fathers.
19
Abijah pursued Jeroboam and captured from him
several
cities, Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephron with its villages.
20
Jeroboam did not again recover strength in the days of Abijah; and the
Lord
struck him and he died.
21
But Abijah became powerful, and he took fourteen wives for himself, and fathered twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
King James Version
Chapter 13
13
But Jeroboam caused an ambushment to come about behind them: so they were before Judah, and the ambushment was behind them.
14
And when Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind: and they cried unto the
Lord
, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.
15
Then the men of Judah gave a shout: and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass, that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
16
And the children of Israel fled before Judah: and God delivered them into their hand.
17
And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter: so there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.
18
Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied upon the
Lord
God of their fathers.
19
And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Bethel with the towns thereof, and Jeshanah with the towns thereof, and Ephrain with the towns thereof.
20
Neither did Jeroboam recover strength again in the days of Abijah: and the
Lord
struck him, and he died.
21
But Abijah waxed mighty, and married fourteen wives, and begat twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 13
13
Now Jeroboam had sent an ambush around to advance from behind them. So they were in front of Judah, and the ambush was behind them.
14
Judah turned and discovered that the battle was in front of them and behind them, so they cried out to the
Lord
. Then the priests blew the trumpets,
15
and the men of Judah raised the battle cry. When the men of Judah raised the battle cry, God routed Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
16
So the Israelites fled before Judah, and God handed them over to them.
17
Then Abijah and his people struck them with a mighty blow, and five hundred thousand fit young men of Israel were killed.
18
The Israelites were subdued at that time. The Judahites succeeded because they depended on the
Lord
, the God of their ancestors.
19
Abijah pursued Jeroboam and captured some cities from him: Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, along with their surrounding villages.
20
Jeroboam no longer retained his power during Abijah’s reign; ultimately, the
Lord
struck him and he died.
21
However, Abijah grew strong, acquired fourteen wives, and fathered twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
New Living Translation
Chapter 13
13
Meanwhile, Jeroboam had secretly sent part of his army around behind the men of Judah to ambush them.
14
When Judah realized that they were being attacked from the front and the rear, they cried out to the
Lord
for help. Then the priests blew the trumpets,
15
and the men of Judah began to shout. At the sound of their battle cry, God defeated Jeroboam and all Israel and routed them before Abijah and the army of Judah.
16
The Israelite army fled from Judah, and God handed them over to Judah in defeat.
17
Abijah and his army inflicted heavy losses on them; 500,000 of Israel’s select troops were killed that day.
18
So Judah defeated Israel on that occasion because they trusted in the
Lord
, the God of their ancestors.
19
Abijah and his army pursued Jeroboam’s troops and captured some of his towns, including Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, along with their surrounding villages.
20
So Jeroboam of Israel never regained his power during Abijah’s lifetime, and finally the
Lord
struck him down and he died.
21
Meanwhile, Abijah of Judah grew more and more powerful. He married fourteen wives and had twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
