V.1 And the Spirit 7307 of God 430 came upon Azariah 5838 the son 1121 of Oded: 5752

15:2 And he went out 3318-4 to meet 6440 Asa, 609 and said 559-4 unto him, Hear 8085-3 ye me, Asa, 609 and all Judah 3063 and Benjamin; 1144 The LORD 3068 [is] with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek 1875-4 him, he will be found 4672-11 of you; but if ye forsake 5800-4 him, he will forsake 5800-4 you.

15:3 Now for a long 7227 season 3117 Israel 3478 [hath been] without 3808 the true 571 God, 430 and without 3808 a teaching 3384-56 priest, 3548 and without 3808 law. 8451

15:4 But when they in their trouble 6862 did turn 7725-4 unto the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel, 3478 and sought 1245-17 him, he was found 4672-11 of them.

15:5 And in those times 6256 [there was] no peace 7965 to him that went out, 3318-6 nor to him that came in, 935-6 but great 7227 vexations 4103 [were] upon all the inhabitants 3427-6 of the countries. 776

15:6 And nation 1471 was destroyed 3807-27 of nation, 1471 and city 5892 of city: 5892 for God 430 did vex 2000-1 them with all adversity. 6869

15:7 Be ye strong 2388-3 therefore, and let not your hands 3027 be weak: 7503-4 for your work 6468 shall be 3426 rewarded. 7939

15:8 And when Asa 609 heard 8085-2 these words, 1697 and the prophecy 5016 of Oded 5752 the prophet, 5030 he took courage, 2388-98 and put away 5674-55 the abominable idols 8251 out of all the land 776 of Judah 3063 and Benjamin, 1144 and out of the cities 5892 which he had taken 3920-1 from mount 2022 Ephraim, 669 and renewed 2318-17 the altar 4196 of the LORD, 3068 that [was] before 6440 the porch 197 of the LORD. 3068

15:9 And he gathered 6908-4 all Judah 3063 and Benjamin, 1144 and the strangers 1481-6 with them out of Ephraim 669 and Manasseh, 4519 and out of Simeon: 8095 for they fell 5307-1 to him out of Israel 3478 in abundance, 7230 when they saw 7200-2 that the LORD 3068 his God 430 [was] with him.

15:10 So they gathered themselves together 6908-11 at Jerusalem 3389 in the third 7992 month, 2320 in the fifteenth 2568 6240 year 8141 of the reign 4438 of Asa. 609

15:11 And they offered 2076-4 unto the LORD 3068 the same time, 3117 of the spoil 7998 [which] they had brought, 935-52 seven 7651 hundred 3967 oxen 1241 and seven 7651 thousand 505 sheep. 6629

15:12 And they entered 935-4 into a covenant 1285 to seek 1875-2 the LORD 3068 God 430 of their fathers 1 with all their heart 3824 and with all their soul; 5315

15:13 That whosoever would not seek 1875-4 the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel 3478 should be put to death, 4191-93 whether 4480 small 6996 or great, 1419 whether man 376 or woman. 802

15:14 And they sware 7650-11 unto the LORD 3068 with a loud 1419 voice, 6963 and with shouting, 8643 and with trumpets, 2689 and with cornets. 7782

15:15 And all Judah 3063 rejoiced 8055-4 at the oath: 7621 for they had sworn 7650-8 with all their heart, 3824 and sought 1245-14 him with their whole desire; 7522 and he was found 4672-11 of them: and the LORD 3068 gave them rest 5117- 4 round about. 5439

15:16 And also [concerning] Maachah 4601 the mother 517 of Asa 609 the king, 4428 he removed 5493-52 her from [being] queen, 1377 because she had made 6213-1 an idol 4656 in a grove: 842 and Asa 609 cut down 3772-4 her idol, 4656 and stamped 1854-55 [it], and burnt 8313-4 [it] at the brook 5158 Kidron. 6939

15:17 But the high places 1116 were not taken away 5493-1 out of Israel: 3478 nevertheless the heart 3824 of Asa 609 was perfect 8003 all his days. 3117

15:18 And he brought into 935-55 the house 1004 of God 430 the things that his father 1 had dedicated, 6944 and that he himself had dedicated, 6944 silver, 3701 and gold, 2091 and vessels. 3627
