7At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him: “Because you relied on the king of Aram and not on the LORD your God, the army of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand. 8Were not the Cushites That is, people from the upper Nile region and Libyans a mighty army with great numbers of chariots and horsemen Or charioteers ? Yet when you relied on the LORD, he delivered them into your hand.
9For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. You have done a foolish thing, and from now on you will be at war.”
