2 Chronicles 14:6

And he built fenced cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; because the LORD had given him rest.

KJV

Ædificavit quoque urbes munitas in Juda, quia quietus erat, et nulla temporibus ejus bella surrexerant, pacem Domino largiente.

Vulgate

πόλεις τειχήρεις ἐν γῇ Ἰούδα, ὅτι εἰρήνευσεν ἡ γῆ· καὶ οὐκ ἦν αὐτῷ πόλεμος ἐν τοῖς ἔτεσιν τούτοις, ὅτι κατέπαυσεν αὐτῷ Κύριος.

LXX

And he built fortified cities in Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because Jehovah had given him rest.
