And Asa and the people that were with him pursued them unto Gerar: and the Ethiopians 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. 16:8Were
not the Ethiopians and the Lubims a huge host, with very many chariots and horsemen? yet, because thou didst rely on the LORD,
he delivered them into thine hand. 21:16Moreover the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines, and of

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti – The largest earthquake ever recorded in the area
rocked Haiti on Tuesday, collapsing a hospital where people screamed for help and damaging other buildings. An aid official
described "total disaster and chaos."
Communications were widely disrupted, making it impossible to get a clear picture
of damage as powerful aftershocks shook a desperately poor country where many buildings are flimsy. Electricity was out in
some places.
Karel Zelenka, a Catholic Relief Services representative in the capital of Port-au-Prince,
told U.S. colleagues before phone service failed that "there must be thousands of people dead," according to a spokeswoman
for the aid group, Sara Fajardo.
"He reported that it was just total disaster and chaos, that there were clouds
of dust surrounding Port-au-Prince," Fajardo said from the group's offices in Maryland.
The earthquake had a preliminary magnitude of 7.0 and was centered about 10 miles
(15 kilometers) west of Port-au-Prince, the U.S. Geological Survey said. It had a depth of 5 miles (8 kilometers). It was
the largest quake recorded in the area and the first major one since a magnitude-6.7 temblor in 1984, USGS analyst Dale Grant
said.
