亞撒納亞撒利雅之勸勉
15 神的靈感動俄德的兒子亞撒利雅， 2 他出來迎接亞撒，對他說：「亞撒和猶大、便雅憫眾人哪，要聽我說！你們若順從耶和華，耶和華必與你們同在。你們若尋求他，就必尋見；你們若離棄他，他必離棄你們。 3 以色列人不信真神，沒有訓誨的祭司，也沒有律法，已經好久了， 4 但他們在急難的時候歸向耶和華以色列的神，尋求他，他就被他們尋見。 5 那時，出入的人不得平安，列國的居民都遭大亂， 6 這國攻擊那國，這城攻擊那城，互相破壞，因為神用各樣災難擾亂他們。 7 現在你們要剛強，不要手軟，因你們所行的必得賞賜。」
奮志除諸可憎之物
8 亞撒聽見這話和俄德兒子先知亞撒利雅的預言，就壯起膽來，在猶大、便雅憫全地並以法蓮山地所奪的各城，將可憎之物盡都除掉，又在耶和華殿的廊前重新修築耶和華的壇。 9 又招聚猶大、便雅憫的眾人，並他們中間寄居的以法蓮人、瑪拿西人、西緬人：有許多以色列人歸降亞撒，因見耶和華他的神與他同在。 10 亞撒十五年三月，他們都聚集在耶路撒冷。 11 當日，他們從所取的擄物中將牛七百隻、羊七千隻獻給耶和華。 12 他們就立約，要盡心、盡性地尋求耶和華他們列祖的神， 13 凡不尋求耶和華以色列神的，無論大小、男女，必被治死。 14 他們就大聲歡呼，吹號吹角，向耶和華起誓。 15 猶大眾人為所起的誓歡喜。因他們是盡心起誓，盡意尋求耶和華，耶和華就被他們尋見，且賜他們四境平安。
貶祖母瑪迦之后位
16 亞撒王貶了他祖母瑪迦太后的位，因她造了可憎的偶像亞舍拉。亞撒砍下她的偶像，搗得粉碎，燒在汲淪溪邊。 17 只是丘壇還沒有從以色列中廢去，然而亞撒的心一生誠實。 18 亞撒將他父所分別為聖與自己所分別為聖的金銀和器皿，都奉到神的殿裡。 19 從這時直到亞撒三十五年，都沒有爭戰的事。

亞撒的改革
15 上帝的靈降在俄德的兒子亞撒利雅身上， 2 他便出來迎接亞撒，對他說：「亞撒啊，所有的猶大人和便雅憫人啊，請聽我說！你們若順從耶和華，祂必與你們同在。你們若尋求祂，祂必讓你們尋見。你們若背棄祂，祂必離棄你們。 3 以色列人已經許久沒有真神，沒有祭司教導，也沒有律法。 4 然而，他們在患難時歸向以色列的上帝耶和華，尋求祂，祂就讓他們尋見。 5 那時，人們出入不得平安，因為各地都有動亂。 6 邦國與邦國、城邑與城邑互相攻擊破壞，因為上帝用各樣的災難擾亂他們。 7 但你們要剛強，不要雙手發軟，因為你們必因所行的而得獎賞。」
8 亞撒聽了俄德的兒子亞撒利雅先知的預言，就鼓起勇氣在猶大和便雅憫全境以及他在以法蓮山區奪取的各城邑剷除可憎的神像，並在耶和華殿的走廊前重修耶和華的祭壇。
9 當時，有許多以法蓮人、瑪拿西人和西緬人看見亞撒的上帝耶和華與他同在，就從以色列來投奔他，寄居在猶大。亞撒把他們和所有的猶大人與便雅憫人都招聚在一起。 10 亞撒執政第十五年三月，他們聚集在耶路撒冷。 11 當天，他們從擄物中取出七百頭牛和七千隻羊獻給耶和華。 12 他們又與他們祖先的上帝耶和華立約，要全心全意地尋求祂。 13 凡不尋求以色列的上帝耶和華的，無論男女老幼，一律處死。 14 他們高聲向耶和華起誓，並吹響號角。 15 猶大人都為所起的誓而歡喜快樂，因他們誠心起誓、誠意尋求耶和華，耶和華就讓他們尋見，並賜他們四境平安。
16 亞撒王廢除了他祖母瑪迦的太后之位，因為她造了可憎的亞舍拉神像。亞撒將她的神像砍倒、打碎，燒毀在汲淪溪旁。 17 儘管他還沒有把邱壇從以色列除去，但他一生對耶和華忠心。 18 他將他父親和自己奉獻給上帝的金銀及器皿都帶到上帝的殿裡。
19 從那時直到亞撒執政第三十五年，國中都沒有戰爭。

Revival Under Asa
15 The Spirit of God came on Azariah son of Oded.(A) 2 So he went out to meet Asa and said to him, “Asa and all Judah and Benjamin, hear me. The Lord is with you(B) when you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you,(C) but if you abandon Him, He will abandon you.(D) 3 For many years Israel has been without the true God,(E) without a teaching priest, and without instruction,(F) 4 but when they turned to the Lord God of Israel in their distress and sought Him, He was found by them. 5 In those times there was no peace for those who went about their daily activities because the residents of the lands had many conflicts. 6 Nation was crushed by nation and city by city, for God troubled them with every possible distress. 7 But as for you, be strong; don’t be discouraged,[a] for your work has a reward.”(G)
8 When Asa heard these words and the prophecy of Azariah son of Oded the prophet, he took courage and removed the detestable idols from the whole land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities he had captured in the hill country of Ephraim.(H) He renovated the altar of the Lord that was in front of the portico of the Lord’s temple.(I) 9 Then he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, as well as those from the tribes of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon who had settled among them, for they had defected to him from Israel in great numbers when they saw that Yahweh his God was with him.(J)
10 They were gathered in Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of Asa’s reign. 11 At that time they sacrificed to the Lord 700 cattle and 7,000 sheep from all the plunder they had brought.(K) 12 Then they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their ancestors with all their mind and all their heart.(L) 13 Whoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel would be put to death, young or old,[b] man or woman.(M) 14 They took an oath to the Lord in a loud voice, with shouting, with trumpets, and with rams’ horns. 15 All Judah rejoiced over the oath, for they had sworn it with all their mind. They had sought Him with all their heart, and He was found by them.(N) So the Lord gave them rest on every side.(O)
16 King Asa(P) also removed Maacah, his grandmother,[c](Q) from being queen mother because she had made an obscene image of Asherah. Asa chopped down her obscene image, then crushed it and burned it in the Kidron Valley.(R) 17 The high places were not taken away from Israel; nevertheless, Asa was wholehearted his entire life.[d] 18 He brought his father’s consecrated gifts and his own consecrated gifts into God’s temple: silver, gold, and utensils.
19 There was no war until the thirty-fifth year of Asa’s reign.

Asa’s Reform(A)
15 The Spirit of God came on(B) Azariah son of Oded. 2 He went out to meet Asa and said to him, “Listen to me, Asa and all Judah and Benjamin. The Lord is with you(C) when you are with him.(D) If you seek(E) him, he will be found by you, but if you forsake him, he will forsake you.(F) 3 For a long time Israel was without the true God, without a priest to teach(G) and without the law.(H) 4 But in their distress they turned to the Lord, the God of Israel, and sought him,(I) and he was found by them. 5 In those days it was not safe to travel about,(J) for all the inhabitants of the lands were in great turmoil. 6 One nation was being crushed by another and one city by another,(K) because God was troubling them with every kind of distress. 7 But as for you, be strong(L) and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.”(M)
8 When Asa heard these words and the prophecy of Azariah son of[a] Oded the prophet, he took courage. He removed the detestable idols(N) from the whole land of Judah and Benjamin and from the towns he had captured(O) in the hills of Ephraim. He repaired the altar(P) of the Lord that was in front of the portico of the Lord’s temple.
9 Then he assembled all Judah and Benjamin and the people from Ephraim, Manasseh and Simeon who had settled among them, for large numbers(Q) had come over to him from Israel when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.
10 They assembled at Jerusalem in the third month(R) of the fifteenth year of Asa’s reign. 11 At that time they sacrificed to the Lord seven hundred head of cattle and seven thousand sheep and goats from the plunder(S) they had brought back. 12 They entered into a covenant(T) to seek the Lord,(U) the God of their ancestors, with all their heart and soul. 13 All who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, were to be put to death,(V) whether small or great, man or woman. 14 They took an oath to the Lord with loud acclamation, with shouting and with trumpets and horns. 15 All Judah rejoiced about the oath because they had sworn it wholeheartedly. They sought God(W) eagerly, and he was found by them. So the Lord gave them rest(X) on every side.
16 King Asa also deposed his grandmother Maakah(Y) from her position as queen mother,(Z) because she had made a repulsive image for the worship of Asherah.(AA) Asa cut it down, broke it up and burned it in the Kidron Valley.(AB) 17 Although he did not remove the high places from Israel, Asa’s heart was fully committed to the Lord all his life. 18 He brought into the temple of God the silver and gold and the articles that he and his father had dedicated.(AC)
19 There was no more war until the thirty-fifth year of Asa’s reign.

King James Version
2 Chronicles 15
King James Version
15 And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:
2 And 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.
3 Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
4 But when they in their trouble did turn unto the Lord God of Israel, and sought him, he was found of them.
5 And 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.
6 And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.
7 Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.
8 And 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.
9 And 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.
10 So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
11 And they offered unto the Lord the same time, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
12 And they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
13 That whosoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
14 And they sware unto the Lord with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15 And 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.
16 And 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.
17 But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
18 And 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.
19 And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
