KJV

1  And the Spirit⁷³⁰⁷ of God⁴³⁰ came¹⁹⁶¹ upon⁵⁹²¹ Azariah⁵⁸³⁸ the son¹¹²¹ of Oded:⁵⁷⁵²

2  And he went out³³¹⁸ to meet⁶⁴⁴⁰ Asa,⁶⁰⁹ and said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, Hear⁸⁰⁸⁵ ye me, Asa,⁶⁰⁹ and all³⁶⁰⁵ Judah³⁰⁶³ and Benjamin;¹¹⁴⁴ The LORD³⁰⁶⁸ is with⁵⁹⁷³ you, while ye be¹⁹⁶¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ him; and if⁵¹⁸ ye seek¹⁸⁷⁵ him, he will be found⁴⁶⁷² of you; but if⁵¹⁸ ye forsake⁵⁸⁰⁰ him, he will forsake⁵⁸⁰⁰ you.

3  Now for a long season^{7227 3117} Israel³⁴⁷⁸ hath been without³⁸⁰⁸ the true⁵⁷¹ God,⁴³⁰ and without³⁸⁰⁸ a teaching³³⁸⁴ priest,³⁵⁴⁸ and without³⁸⁰⁸ law.⁸⁴⁵¹

4  But when they in their trouble⁶⁸⁶² did turn⁷⁷²⁵ unto⁵⁹²¹ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ and sought¹²⁴⁵ him, he was found⁴⁶⁷² of them.

5  And in those¹⁹⁹² times⁶²⁵⁶ there was no³⁶⁹ peace⁷⁹⁶⁵ to him that went out,³³¹⁸ nor to him that came in,⁹³⁵ but³⁵⁸⁸ great⁷²²⁷ vexations⁴¹⁰³ were upon⁵⁹²¹ all³⁶⁰⁵ the inhabitants³⁴²⁷ of the countries.⁷⁷⁶

6  And nation¹⁴⁷¹ was destroyed³⁸⁰⁷ of nation,¹⁴⁷¹ and city⁵⁸⁹² of city:⁵⁸⁹² for³⁵⁸⁸ God⁴³⁰ did vex²⁰⁰⁰ them with all³⁶⁰⁵ adversity.⁶⁸⁶⁹

7  Be ye strong^{859 2388} therefore, and let not⁴⁰⁸ your hands³⁰²⁷ be weak:⁷⁵⁰³ for³⁵⁸⁸ your work⁶⁴⁶⁸ shall be³⁴²⁶ rewarded.⁷⁹³⁹

8  And when Asa⁶⁰⁹ heard⁸⁰⁸⁵ these⁴²⁸ words,¹⁶⁹⁷ and the prophecy⁵⁰¹⁶ of Oded⁵⁷⁵² the prophet,⁵⁰³⁰ he took courage,²³⁸⁸ and put away⁵⁶⁷⁴ the abominable idols⁸²⁵¹ out of all^{4480 3605} the land⁷⁷⁶ of Judah³⁰⁶³ and Benjamin,¹¹⁴⁴ and out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the cities⁵⁸⁹² which⁸³⁴ he had taken³⁹²⁰ from mount^{4480 2022} Ephraim,⁶⁶⁹ and renewed^{2318 853} the altar⁴¹⁹⁶ of the LORD,³⁰⁶⁸ that⁸³⁴ was before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the porch¹⁹⁷ of the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸

9  And he gathered^{6908 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ Judah³⁰⁶³ and Benjamin,¹¹⁴⁴ and the strangers¹⁴⁸¹ with⁵⁹⁷³ them out of Ephraim^{4480 669} and Manasseh,⁴⁵¹⁹ and out of Simeon:^{4480 8095} for³⁵⁸⁸ they fell⁵³⁰⁷ to⁵⁹²¹ him out of Israel^{4480 3478} in abundance,⁷²³⁰ when they saw⁷²⁰⁰ that³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ his God⁴³⁰ was with⁵⁹⁷³ him.

10  So they gathered themselves together⁶⁹⁰⁸ at Jerusalem³³⁸⁹ in the third⁷⁹⁹² month,²³²⁰ in the fifteenth^{2568 6240} year⁸¹⁴¹ of the reign⁴⁴³⁸ of Asa.⁶⁰⁹

11  And they offered²⁰⁷⁶ unto the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ the same¹⁹³¹ time,³¹¹⁷ of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the spoil⁷⁹⁹⁸ which they had brought,⁹³⁵ seven⁷⁶⁵¹ hundred³⁹⁶⁷ oxen¹²⁴¹ and seven⁷⁶⁵¹ thousand⁵⁰⁵ sheep.⁶⁶²⁹

12  And they entered⁹³⁵ into a covenant¹²⁸⁵ to seek^{1875 853} the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of their fathers¹ with all³⁶⁰⁵ their heart³⁸²⁴ and with all³⁶⁰⁵ their soul;⁵³¹⁵

13  That whosoever^{3605 834} would not³⁸⁰⁸ seek¹⁸⁷⁵ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ should be put to death,⁴¹⁹¹ whether⁴⁴⁸⁰ small⁶⁹⁹⁶ or⁵⁷⁰⁴ great,¹⁴¹⁹ whether man^{4480 376} or⁵⁷⁰⁴ woman.⁸⁰²

14  And they swore⁷⁶⁵⁰ unto the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ with a loud¹⁴¹⁹ voice,⁶⁹⁶³ and with shouting,⁸⁶⁴³ and with trumpets,²⁶⁸⁹ and with cornets.⁷⁷⁸²

15  And all³⁶⁰⁵ Judah³⁰⁶³ rejoiced⁸⁰⁵⁵ at⁵⁹²¹ the oath:⁷⁶²¹ for³⁵⁸⁸ they had sworn⁷⁶⁵⁰ with all³⁶⁰⁵ their heart,³⁸²⁴ and sought¹²⁴⁵ him with their whole³⁶⁰⁵ desire;⁷⁵²² and he was found⁴⁶⁷² of them: and the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ gave them rest⁵¹¹⁷ round about.^{4480 5439}

16  And also¹⁵⁷¹ concerning Maachah⁴⁶⁰¹ the mother⁵¹⁷ of Asa⁶⁰⁹ the king,⁴⁴²⁸ he removed⁵⁴⁹³ her from being queen,^{4480 1377} because⁸³⁴ she had made⁶²¹³ an idol⁴⁶⁵⁶ in a grove:⁸⁴² and Asa⁶⁰⁹ cut down^{3772 853} her idol,⁴⁶⁵⁶ and stamped¹⁸⁵⁴ it, and burnt⁸³¹³ it at the brook⁵¹⁵⁸ Kidron.⁶⁹³⁹

17  But the high places¹¹¹⁶ were not³⁸⁰⁸ taken away⁵⁴⁹³ out of Israel:^{4480 3478} nevertheless⁷⁵³⁵ the heart³⁸²⁴ of Asa⁶⁰⁹ was¹⁹⁶¹ perfect⁸⁰⁰³ all³⁶⁰⁵ his days.³¹¹⁷

18  And he brought into⁹³⁵ the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of God^{430 853} the things that his father¹ had dedicated,⁶⁹⁴⁴ and that he himself had dedicated,⁶⁹⁴⁴ silver,³⁷⁰¹ and gold,²⁰⁹¹ and vessels.³⁶²⁷

19  And there was¹⁹⁶¹ no³⁸⁰⁸ more war⁴⁴²¹ unto⁵⁷⁰⁴ the five²⁵⁶⁸ and thirtieth⁷⁹⁷⁰ year⁸¹⁴¹ of the reign⁴⁴³⁸ of Asa.⁶⁰⁹

1 καὶ Αζαριας υἱὸς Ωδηδ ἐγένετο ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν πνεῦμα κυρίου

2 καὶ ἐξῆλθεν εἰς ἀπάντησιν Ασα καὶ παντὶ Ιουδα καὶ Βενιαμιν καὶ εἶπεν ἀκούσατέ μου Ασα καὶ πᾶς Ιουδα καὶ Βενιαμιν κύριος μεθ᾽ ὑμῶν ἐν τῷ εἶναι ὑμᾶς μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐὰν ἐκζητήσητε αὐτόν εὑρεθήσεται ὑμῖν καὶ ἐὰν ἐγκαταλίπητε αὐτόν ἐγκαταλείψει ὑμᾶς

3 καὶ ἡμέραι πολλαὶ τῷ Ισραηλ ἐν οὐ θεῷ ἀληθινῷ καὶ οὐχ ἱερέως ὑποδεικνύοντος καὶ ἐν οὐ νόμῳ

4 καὶ ἐπιστρέψει ἐπὶ κύριον θεὸν Ισραηλ καὶ εὑρεθήσεται αὐτοῖς

5 καὶ ἐν ἐκείνῳ τῷ καιρῷ οὐκ ἔστιν εἰρήνη τῷ ἐκπορευομένῳ καὶ τῷ εἰσπορευομένῳ ὅτι ἔκστασις κυρίου ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὰς χώρας

6 καὶ πολεμήσει ἔθνος πρὸς ἔθνος καὶ πόλις πρὸς πόλιν ὅτι ὁ θεὸς ἐξέστησεν αὐτοὺς ἐν πάσῃ θλίψει

7 καὶ ὑμεῖς ἰσχύσατε καὶ μὴ ἐκλυέσθωσαν αἱ χεῖρες ὑμῶν ὅτι ἔστιν μισθὸς τῇ ἐργασίᾳ ὑμῶν

8 καὶ ἐν τῷ ἀκοῦσαι τοὺς λόγους τούτους καὶ τὴν προφητείαν Αδαδ τοῦ προφήτου καὶ κατίσχυσεν καὶ ἐξέβαλεν τὰ βδελύγματα ἀπὸ πάσης τῆς γῆς Ιουδα καὶ Βενιαμιν καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πόλεων ὧν κατέσχεν ἐν ὄρει Εφραιμ καὶ ἐνεκαίνισεν τὸ θυσιαστήριον κυρίου ὃ ἦν ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ ναοῦ κυρίου

9 καὶ ἐξεκκλησίασεν τὸν Ιουδαν καὶ Βενιαμιν καὶ τοὺς προσηλύτους τοὺς παροικοῦντας μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ Εφραιμ καὶ ἀπὸ Μανασση καὶ ἀπὸ Συμεων ὅτι προσετέθησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν πολλοὶ τοῦ Ισραηλ ἐν τῷ ἰδεῖν αὐτοὺς ὅτι κύριος ὁ θεὸς αὐτοῦ μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ

10 καὶ συνήχθησαν εἰς Ιερουσαλημ ἐν τῷ μηνὶ τῷ τρίτῳ ἐν τῷ πεντεκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει τῆς βασιλείας Ασα

11 καὶ ἔθυσεν τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἀπὸ τῶν σκύλων ὧν ἤνεγκαν μόσχους ἑπτακοσίους καὶ πρόβατα ἑπτακισχίλια

12 καὶ διῆλθεν ἐν διαθήκῃ ζητῆσαι κύριον θεὸν τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν ἐξ ὅλης τῆς καρδίας καὶ ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς

13 καὶ πᾶς ὃς ἐὰν μὴ ἐκζητήσῃ κύριον θεὸν Ισραηλ ἀποθανεῖται ἀπὸ νεωτέρου ἕως πρεσβυτέρου ἀπὸ ἀνδρὸς ἕως γυναικός

14 καὶ ὤμοσαν ἐν τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ καὶ ἐν σάλπιγξιν καὶ ἐν κερατίναις

15 καὶ ηὐφράνθησαν πᾶς Ιουδα περὶ τοῦ ὅρκου ὅτι ἐξ ὅλης τῆς ψυχῆς ὤμοσαν καὶ ἐν πάσῃ θελήσει ἐζήτησαν αὐτόν καὶ εὑρέθη αὐτοῖς καὶ κατέπαυσεν αὐτοῖς κύριος κυκλόθεν

16 καὶ τὴν Μααχα τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ μετέστησεν τοῦ μὴ εἶναι τῇ Ἀστάρτῃ λειτουργοῦσαν καὶ κατέκοψεν τὸ εἴδωλον καὶ κατέκαυσεν ἐν χειμάρρῳ Κεδρων

17 πλὴν τὰ ὑψηλὰ οὐκ ἀπέστησαν ἔτι ὑπῆρχεν ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ ἀλλ᾽ ἢ καρδία Ασα ἐγένετο πλήρης πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας αὐτοῦ

18 καὶ εἰσήνεγκεν τὰ ἅγια Δαυιδ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ ἅγια οἴκου κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον καὶ σκεύη

19 καὶ πόλεμος οὐκ ἦν μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ ἕως τοῦ πέμπτου καὶ τριακοστοῦ ἔτους τῆς βασιλείας Ασα

1 Azarias autem filius Oded, facto in se spiritu Dei,

2 egressus est in occursum Asa, et dixit ei: Audite me, Asa, et omnis Juda et Benjamin: Dominus vobiscum, quia fuistis cum eo. Si quæsieritis eum, invenietis: si autem dereliqueritis eum, derelinquet vos.

3 Transibant autem multi dies in Israël absque Deo vero, et absque sacerdote doctore, et absque lege.

4 Cumque reversi fuerint in angustia sua ad Dominum Deum Israël, et quæsierint eum, reperient eum.

5 In tempore illo, non erit pax egredienti et ingredienti, sed terrores undique in cunctis habitatoribus terrarum:

6 pugnavit enim gens contra gentem, et civitas contra civitatem, quia Dominus conturbabit eos in omni angustia.

7 Vos ergo confortamini, et non dissolvantur manus vestræ: erit enim merces operi vestro.

8 Quod cum audisset Asa, verba scilicet, et prophetiam Azariæ filii Oded prophetæ, confortatus est, et abstulit idola de omni terra Juda et de Benjamin, et ex urbibus quas ceperat, montis Ephraim: et dedicavit altare Domini quod erat ante porticum Domini.

9 Congregavitque universum Judam et Benjamin, et advenas cum eis de Ephraim, et de Manasse, et de Simeon: plures enim ad eum confugerant ex Israël, videntes quod Dominus Deus illius esset cum eo.

10 Cumque venissent in Jerusalem mense tertio, anno decimoquinto regni Asa,

11 immolaverunt Domino in die illa de manubiis et præda quam adduxerant, boves septingentos, et arietes septem millia.

12 Et intravit ex more ad corroborandum fœdus ut quærerent Dominum Deum patrum suorum in toto corde, et in tota anima sua.

13 Si quis autem, inquit, non quæsierit Dominum Deum Israël, moriatur, a minimo usque ad maximum, a viro usque ad mulierem.

14 Juraveruntque Domino voce magna in jubilo, et in clangore tubæ, et in sonitu buccinarum,

15 omnes qui erant in Juda, cum execratione: in omni enim corde suo juraverunt, et in tota voluntate quæsierunt eum, et invenerunt: præstititque eis Dominus requiem per circuitum.

16 Sed et Maacham matrem Asa regis ex augusto deposuit imperio, eo quod fecisset in luco simulacrum Priapi: quod omne contrivit, et in frustra comminuens combussit in torrente Cedron.

17 Excelsa autem derelicta sunt in Israël: attamen cor Asa erat perfectum cunctis diebus ejus,

18 eaque quæ voverat pater suus, et ipse, intulit in domum Domini, argentum, et aurum, vasorumque diversam supellectilem.

19 Bellum vero non fuit usque ad trigesimum quintum annum regni Asa.
