2 Chronicles 13:16-18

The Voice

^14-16 When Judah realized what the Northern forces had done, the men shouted to the Eternal and the priests blew their signal trumpets just as Abijah promised. God was faithful to His promise; He crushed Jeroboam and his forces. As they fled, the True God gave the victory over Israel to Abijah and Judah. ¹⁷ Abijah and his army slaughtered 500,000 of the Israelite warriors. ¹⁸ The Northern Israelites were defeated because the people of Judah trusted in the Eternal One, the True God of their ancestors.
