2 Chronicles 14:6-8

New King James Version

⁶ And he built fortified cities in Judah, for the land had rest; he had no war in those years, because the Lord had given him ^(A)rest. ⁷ Therefore he said to Judah, “Let us build these cities and make walls around them, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us, because we have sought the Lord our God; we have sought Him, and He has given us rest on every side.” So they built and prospered. ⁸ And Asa had an army of three hundred thousand from Judah who carried ^[a]shields and spears, and from Benjamin two hundred and eighty thousand men who carried shields and drew ^(B)bows; all these were mighty men of ^(C)valor.
