The Judeans gave a loud shout, and led by Abijah, they attacked; God defeated Jeroboam and the Israelite army.

When they began to sing, the LORD threw the invading armies into a panic.

He made the wheels of their chariots get stuck, so that they moved with great difficulty. The Egyptians said, "The LORD is fighting for the Israelites against us. Let's get out of here!"

"The LORD will defeat your enemies when they attack you. They will attack from one direction, but they will run from you in all directions.

" 'I, and I alone, am God; no other god is real. I kill and I give life, I wound and I heal, and no one can oppose what I do.

The LORD made the Amorites panic at the sight of Israel's army. The Israelites slaughtered them at Gibeon and pursued them down the mountain pass at Beth Horon, keeping up the attack as far south as Azekah and Makkedah.

With God on our side we will win; he will defeat our enemies.

He killed powerful kings; his love is eternal;

he killed famous kings; his love is eternal;

That is why I run straight for the finish line; that is why I am like a boxer who does not waste his punches.

But thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!
