2 Chronicles 14:2--15:18

And Asa
<0609>

did
<06213> (8799)

[that which was] good
<02896>

and right
<03477>

in the eyes
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>_:

For he took away
<05493> (8686)

the altars
<04196>

of the strange
<05236>

[gods], and the high places
<01116>_,

and brake down
<07665> (8762)

the images
<04676>_,

and cut down
<01438> (8762)

the groves
<0842>_:

{images: Heb. statues}

And commanded
<0559> (8799)

Judah
<03063>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>_,

and to do
<06213> (8800)

the law
<08451>

and the commandment
<04687>_.

Also he took away
<05493> (8686)

out of all the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>

the high places
<01116>

and the images
<02553>_:

and the kingdom
<04467>

was quiet
<08252> (8799)

before
<06440>

him. {images: Heb. sun images}

And he built
<01129> (8799)

fenced
<04694>

cities
<05892>

in Judah
<03063>_:

for the land
<0776>

had rest
<08252> (8804)_,

and he had no war
<04421>

in those years
<08141>_;

because the LORD
<03068>

had given him rest
<05117> (8689)_.

Therefore he said
<0559> (8799)

unto Judah
<03063>_,

Let us build
<01129> (8799)

these cities
<05892>_,

and make about
<05437> (8686)

[them] walls
<02346>_,

and towers
<04026>_,

gates
<01817>_,

and bars
<01280>_,

[while] the land
<0776>

[is] yet before
<06440>

us; because we have sought
<01875> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_,

we have sought
<01875> (8804)

[him], and he hath given us rest
<05117> (8799)

on every side
<05439>_.

So they built
<01129> (8799)

and prospered
<06743> (8686)_.

And Asa
<0609>

had an army
<02428>

[of men] that bare
<05375> (8802)

targets
<06793>

and spears
<07420>_,

out of Judah
<03063>

three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

thousand
<0505>_;

and out of Benjamin
<01144>_,

that bare
<05375> (8802)

shields
<04043>

and drew
<01869> (8802)

bows
<07198>_,

two hundred
<03967>

and fourscore
<08084>

thousand
<0505>_:

all these [were] mighty men
<01368>

of valour
<02428>_.

And there came out
<03318> (8799)

against them Zerah
<02226>

the Ethiopian
<03569>

with an host
<02428>

of a thousand
<0505>

thousand
<0505>_,

and three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

chariots
<04818>_;

and came
<0935> (8799)

unto Mareshah
<04762>_.

Then Asa
<0609>

went out
<03318> (8799)

against
<06440>

him, and they set the battle
<04421>

in array
<06186> (8799)

in the valley
<01516>

of Zephathah
<06859>

at Mareshah
<04762>_.

And Asa
<0609>

cried
<07121> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

LORD
<03068>_,

[it is] nothing with thee to help
<05826> (8800)_,

whether
<0996>

with many
<07227>_,

or with them that have no power
<03581>_:

help
<05826> (8798)

us, O LORD
<03068>

our God
<0430>_;

for we rest
<08172> (8738)

on thee, and in thy name
<08034>

we go
<0935> (8804)

against this multitude
<01995>_.

O LORD
<03068>_,

thou [art] our God
<0430>_;

let not man
<0582>

prevail
<06113> (8799)

against thee. {man: or, mortal man}

So the LORD
<03068>

smote
<05062> (8799)

the Ethiopians
<03569>

before
<06440>

Asa
<0609>_,

and before
<06440>

Judah
<03063>_;

and the Ethiopians
<03569>

fled
<05127> (8799)_.

And Asa
<0609>

and the people
<05971>

that [were] with him pursued
<07291> (8799)

them unto Gerar
<01642>_:

and the Ethiopians
<03569>

were overthrown
<05307> (8799)_,

that they could not recover
<04241>

themselves; for they were destroyed
<07665> (8738)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_,

and before
<06440>

his host
<04264>_;

and they carried away
<05375> (8799)

very
<03966>

much
<07235> (8687)

spoil
<07998>_.

{destroyed: Heb. broken}

And they smote
<05221> (8686)

all the cities
<05892>

round about
<05439>

Gerar
<01642>_;

for the fear
<06343>

of the LORD
<03068>

came upon them: and they spoiled
<0962> (8799)

all the cities
<05892>_;

for there was exceeding much
<07227>

spoil
<0961>

in them.

They smote
<05221> (8689)

also the tents
<0168>

of cattle
<04735>_,

and carried away
<07617> (8799)

sheep
<06629>

and camels
<01581>

in abundance
<07230>_,

and returned
<07725> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

And the Spirit
<07307>

of God
<0430>

came upon Azariah
<05838>

the son
<01121>

of Oded
<05752>_:

And he went out
<03318> (8799)

to meet
<06440>

Asa
<0609>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Hear
<08085> (8798)

ye me, Asa
<0609>_,

and all Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_;

The LORD
<03068>

[is] with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seek
<01875> (8799)

him, he will be found
<04672> (8735)

of you; but if ye forsake
<05800> (8799)

him, he will forsake
<05800> (8799)

you. {to meet...: Heb. before Asa}

Now for a long
<07227>

season
<03117>

Israel
<03478>

[hath been] without
<03808>

the true
<0571>

God
<0430>_,

and without a teaching
<03384> (8688)

priest
<03548>_,

and without law
<08451>_.

But when they in their trouble
<06862>

did turn
<07725> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and sought
<01245> (8762)

him, he was found
<04672> (8735)

of them.

And in those times
<06256>

[there was] no peace
<07965>

to him that went out
<03318> (8802)_,

nor to him that came in
<0935> (8802)_,

but great
<07227>

vexations
<04103>

[were] upon all the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the countries
<0776>_.

And nation
<01471>

was destroyed
<03807> (8795)

of nation
<01471>_,

and city
<05892>

of city
<05892>_:

for God
<0430>

did vex
<02000> (8804)

them with all adversity
<06869>_.

{destroyed: Heb. beaten in pieces}

Be ye strong
<02388> (8798)

therefore, and let not your hands
<03027>

be weak
<07503> (8799)_:

for your work
<06468>

shall be
<03426>

rewarded
<07939>_.

And when Asa
<0609>

heard
<08085> (8800)

these words
<01697>_,

and the prophecy
<05016>

of Oded
<05752>

the prophet
<05030>_,

he took courage
<02388> (8694)_,

and put away
<05674> (8686)

the abominable idols
<08251>

out of all the land
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_,

and out of the cities
<05892>

which he had taken
<03920> (8804)

from mount
<02022>

Ephraim
<0669>_,

and renewed
<02318> (8762)

the altar
<04196>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

that [was] before
<06440>

the porch
<0197>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

{abominable...: Heb. abominations}

And he gathered
<06908> (8799)

all Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_,

and the strangers
<01481> (8802)

with them out of Ephraim
<0669>

and Manasseh
<04519>_,

and out of Simeon
<08095>_:

for they fell
<05307> (8804)

to him out of Israel
<03478>

in abundance
<07230>_,

when they saw
<07200> (8800)

that the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>

[was] with him.

So they gathered themselves together
<06908> (8735)

at Jerusalem
<03389>

in the third
<07992>

month
<02320>_,

in the fifteenth
<02568> <06240>

year
<08141>

of the reign
<04438>

of Asa
<0609>_.

And they offered
<02076> (8799)

unto the LORD
<03068>

the same time
<03117>_,

of the spoil
<07998>

[which] they had brought
<0935> (8689)_,

seven
<07651>

hundred
<03967>

oxen
<01241>

and seven
<07651>

thousand
<0505>

sheep
<06629>_.

{the same...: Heb. in that day}

And they entered
<0935> (8799)

into a covenant
<01285>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>

with all their heart
<03824>

and with all their soul
<05315>_;

That whosoever would not seek
<01875> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

should be put to death
<04191> (8714)_,

whether
<04480>

small
<06996>

or great
<01419>_,

whether man
<0376>

or woman
<0802>_.

And they sware
<07650> (8735)

unto the LORD
<03068>

with a loud
<01419>

voice
<06963>_,

and with shouting
<08643>_,

and with trumpets
<02689>_,

and with cornets
<07782>_.

And all Judah
<03063>

rejoiced
<08055> (8799)

at the oath
<07621>_:

for they had sworn
<07650> (8738)

with all their heart
<03824>_,

and sought
<01245> (8765)

him with their whole desire
<07522>_;

and he was found
<04672> (8735)

of them: and the LORD
<03068>

gave them rest
<05117> (8799)

round about
<05439>_.

And also [concerning] Maachah
<04601>

the mother
<0517>

of Asa
<0609>

the king
<04428>_,

he removed
<05493> (8689)

her from [being] queen
<01377>_,

because she had made
<06213> (8804)

an idol
<04656>

in a grove
<0842>_:

and Asa
<0609>

cut down
<03772> (8799)

her idol
<04656>_,

and stamped
<01854> (8686)

[it], and burnt
<08313> (8799)

[it] at the brook
<05158>

Kidron
<06939>_.

{mother: that is, grandmother} {idol: Heb. horror}

But the high places
<01116>

were not taken away
<05493> (8804)

out of Israel
<03478>_:

nevertheless the heart
<03824>

of Asa
<0609>

was perfect
<08003>

all his days
<03117>_.

And he brought
<0935> (8686)

into the house
<01004>

of God
<0430>

the things that his father
<01>

had dedicated
<06944>_,

and that he himself had dedicated
<06944>_,

silver
<03701>_,

and gold
<02091>_,

and vessels
<03627>_.
