H3318 [H8799]
And he went out
H6440
to meet
H609
Asa,
H559 [H8799]
and said
H8085 [H8798]
to him, Hear
H609
ye me, Asa,
H3063
and all Judah
H1144
and Benjamin;
H3068
The LORD
H1875 [H8799]
is with you, while ye are with him; and if ye seek
H4672 [H8735]
him, he will be found
H5800 [H8799]
of you; but if ye forsake
H5800 [H8799]
him, he will forsake you.
3
H7227
Now for a long
H3117
season
H3478
Israel
H3808
hath been without
H571
the true
H430
God,
H3384 [H8688]
and without a teaching
H3548
priest,
H8451
and without law.
4
H6862
But when they in their trouble
H7725 [H8799]
returned
H3068
to the LORD
H430
God
H3478
of Israel,
H1245 [H8762]
and sought
H4672 [H8735]
him, he was found by them.
5
H6256
And in those times
H7965
there was no peace
H3318 [H8802]
to him that went out,
H935 [H8802]
nor to him that came in,
H7227
but great
H4103
uproars
H3427 [H8802]
were upon all the inhabitants
H776
of the lands.
6
H1471
And nation
H3807 [H8795]
was bruised
H1471
by nation,
H5892
and city
H5892
by city:
H430
for God
H2000 [H8804]
troubled
H3605
them with all
H6869
tightness.
7
H2388 [H8798]
Be ye strong
H3027
therefore, and let not your hands
H7503 [H8799]
be weak:
H6468
for your work
H3426
shall be
H7939
rewarded.
8
H609
And when Asa
H8085 [H8800]
heard
H1697
these words,
H5016
and the prophecy
H5752
of Oded
H5030
the prophet,
H2388 [H8694]
he took courage,
H5674 [H8686]
and put away
H8251
the abominable idols
H776
out of all the land
H3063
of Judah
H1144
and Benjamin,
H5892
and out of the cities
H3920 [H8804]
which he had taken
H2022
from mount
H669
Ephraim,
H2318 [H8762]
and repaired
H4196
the altar
H3068
of the LORD,
H6440
that was at the face of
H197
the porch
H3068
of the LORD.
9
H6908 [H8799]
And he gathered
H3063
all Judah
H1144
and Benjamin,
H1481 [H8802]
and the sojourners
H669
with them out of Ephraim
H4519
and Manasseh,
H8095
and out of Simeon:
H5307 [H8804]
for they resorted
H3478
to him out of Israel
H7230
in abundance,
H7200 [H8800]
when they saw
H3068
that the LORD
H430
his God was with him.
10
H6908 [H8735]
So they gathered themselves together
H3389
at Jerusalem
H7992
in the third
H2320
month,
H2568 H6240
in the fifteenth
H8141
year
H4438
of the reign
H609
of Asa.
11
H2076 [H8799]
And they offered
H3068
to the LORD
H3117
at the same time,
H7998
of the spoil
H935 [H8689]
which they had brought,
H7651
seven
H3967
hundred
H1241
oxen
H7651
and seven
H505
thousand
H6629
sheep.
12
H935 [H8799]
And they entered
H1285
into a covenant
H1875 [H8800]
to seek
H3068
the LORD
H430
God
H1
of their fathers
H3824
with all their heart
H5315
and with all their breath;
13
H1875 [H8799]
That whoever would not seek
H3068
the LORD
H430
God
H3478
of Israel
H4191 [H8714]
should be put to death,
H4480
whether
H6996
small
H1419
or great,
H376
whether man
H802
or woman.
14
H7650 [H8735]
And they swore
H3068
to the LORD
H1419
with a loud
H6963
voice,
H8643
and with shouting,
H2689
and with trumpets,
H7782
and with shofars.
15
H3063
And all Judah
H8055 [H8799]
rejoiced
H7621
at the oath:
H7650 [H8738]
for they had sworn
H3824
with all their heart,
H1245 [H8765]
and sought
H7522
him with their whole desire;
H4672 [H8735]
and he was found
H3068
by them: and the LORD
H5117 [H8799]
gave them rest
H5439
on all sides.
16
H4601
And also concerning Maachah
H517
the mother
H609
of Asa
H4428
the king,
H5493 [H8689]
he removed
H1377
her from being queen,
H6213 [H8804]
because she had made
H4656
an idol
H842
in a grove:
H609
and Asa
H3772 [H8799]
cut down
H4656
her idol,
H1854 [H8686]
and stamped
H8313 [H8799]
it, and burnt
H5158
it at the brook
H6939
Kidron.
17
H1116
But the high places
H5493 [H8804]
were not taken away
H3478
out of Israel:
H3824
nevertheless the heart
H609
of Asa
H8003
was perfect
H3117
all his days.
