Book 14 2 Chronicles Chapter 015

 

015:001And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:

 

015:002And he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me,
Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; The LORD is with you, while
ye be with him; and if ye seek him, he will be found of you;
but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.

 

015:003Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God,
and without a teaching priest, and without law.

 

015:004But when they in their trouble did turn unto the LORD God of
Israel, and sought him, he was found of them.

 

015:005And in those times there was no peace to him that went out,
nor to him that came in, but great vexations were upon all the
inhabitants of the countries.

 

015:006And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God
did vex them with all adversity.

 

015:007Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for
your work shall be rewarded.

 

015:008And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the
prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols
out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the
cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the
altar of the LORD, that was before the porch of the LORD.

 

015:009And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers with
them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for they
fell to him out of Israel in abundance, when they saw that the
LORD his God was with him.

 

015:010So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third
month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.

 

015:011And they offered unto the LORD the same time, of the spoil
which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand
sheep.

 

015:012And they entered into a covenant to seek the LORD God of their
fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;

 

015:013That whosoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be
put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.

 

015:014And they sware unto the LORD with a loud voice, and with
shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.

 

015:015And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with
all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and
he was found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about.

 

015:016And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he
removed her from being queen, because she had made an idol in
a grove: and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped it, and burnt
it at the brook Kidron.

 

015:017But the high places were not taken away out of Israel:
nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.

 

015:018And he brought into the house of God the things that his
father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated,
silver, and gold, and vessels.

 

015:019And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of
the reign of Asa.
