ט׳וַיֵּצֵא אָסָא לְפָנָיו וַיַּעַרְכוּ מִלְחָמָה בְּגֵיא צְפַתָה לְמָרֵשָׁה׃
י׳וַיִּקְרָא אָסָא אֶל־ה׳ אֱלֹקָיו וַיֹּאמַר ה׳ אֵין־עִמְּךָ לַעְזוֹר בֵּין רַב לְאֵין כֹּחַ עָזְרֵנוּ ה׳ אֱלֹקֵינוּ כִּי־עָלֶיךָ נִשְׁעַנּוּ וּבְשִׁמְךָ בָאנוּ עַל־הֶהָמוֹן הַזֶּה ה׳ אֱלֹקֵינוּ אַתָּה אַל־יַעְצֹר עִמְּךָ אֱנוֹשׁ׃

י״בוַיִּרְדְּפֵם אָסָא וְהָעָם אֲשֶׁר־עִמּוֹ עַד־לִגְרָר וַיִּפֹּל מִכּוּשִׁים לְאֵין לָהֶם מִחְיָה כִּי־נִשְׁבְּרוּ לִפְנֵי־ה׳ וְלִפְנֵי מַחֲנֵהוּ וַיִּשְׂאוּ שָׁלָל הַרְבֵּה מְאֹד׃
י״גוַיַּכּוּ אֵת כָּל־הֶעָרִים סְבִיבוֹת גְּרָר כִּי־הָיָה פַחַד־ה׳ עֲלֵיהֶם וַיָּבֹזּוּ אֶת־כָּל־הֶעָרִים כִּי־בִזָּה רַבָּה הָיְתָה בָהֶם׃

Divrei HaYamim II
14:9–14
Asa called to Hashem, “Help us, Hashem our G-d, for on You we rely,” and Hashem struck the Kushim before him
9Asa went out to face him [Zerach the Kushi], and they set the battle in order in the valley of Tzefasah, at Mareshah.
10Asa called to Hashem his G-d and said, “Hashem, with You it is no different to help the many or the powerless. Help us, Hashem our G-d, for on You we rely, and in Your Name we have come against this multitude. Hashem, You are our G-d; let no man prevail against You.”
11And Hashem struck the Kushim before Asa and before Yehudah, and the Kushim fled.
12Asa and the people who were with him pursued them as far as Gerar, and the Kushim fell until none of them remained alive, for they were shattered before Hashem and before His camp; and they carried away a very great deal of spoil.
13They struck all the cities around Gerar, for the fear of Hashem was upon them; and they plundered all the cities, for there was much plunder in them.
14They also struck the tents of the livestock, and took captive sheep in abundance, and camels; and they returned to Yerushalayim.
