So the LORD smote the Cushites before Asa, and before Judah; and the Cushites fled. And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them to Gerar: and the Cushites were overthrown, that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before the LORD, and before his host; and they carried away very much spoil.
