절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	Asa Destroys the Idols in Judah Some time later, God spoke to Azariah son of Oded.	And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:
2	At once, Azariah went to Asa and said: Listen to me, King Asa and you people of Judah and Benjamin. The Lord will be with you and help you, as long as you obey and worship him. But if you disobey him, he will desert you.	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	For a long time, the people of Israel did not worship the true God or listen to priests who could teach them about God. They refused to obey God's Law.	Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
4	But whenever trouble came, Israel turned back to the Lord their God and worshiped him.	But when they in their trouble did turn unto the Lord God of Israel, and sought him, he was found of them.
5	There was so much confusion in those days that it wasn't safe to go anywhere in Israel.	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	Nations were destroying each other, and cities were wiping out other cities, because God was causing trouble and unrest everywhere.	And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.
7	So you must be brave. Don't give up! God will honor you for obeying him.	Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.
8	As soon as Asa heard what Azariah the prophet said, he gave orders for all the idols in Judah and Benjamin to be destroyed, including those in the towns he had captured in the territory of Ephraim. He also repaired the Lord's altar that was in front of the temple porch.	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	Asa called together the people from Judah and Benjamin, as well as the people from the territories of Ephraim, West Manasseh, and Simeon who were living in Judah. Many of these people were now loyal to Asa, because they had seen that the Lord was with him.	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	In the third month of the fifteenth year of Asa's rule, they all met in Jerusalem.	So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
11	That same day, they took 700 bulls and 7,000 sheep and goats from what they had brought back from Gerar and sacrificed them as offerings to the Lord.	And they offered unto the Lord the same time, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
12	They made a solemn promise to faithfully worship the Lord God their ancestors had worshiped,	And they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
13	and to put to death anyone who refused to obey him.	That whosoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
14	The crowd solemnly agreed to keep their promise to the Lord, then they celebrated by shouting and blowing trumpets and horns.	And they sware unto the Lord with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15	Everyone was happy because they had made this solemn promise, and in return, the Lord blessed them with peace from all their enemies.	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	Asa's grandmother Maacah had made a disgusting idol of the goddess Asherah, so he cut it down, crushed it, and burned it in Kidron Valley. Then he removed Maacah from her position as queen mother.	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	As long as Asa lived, he was faithful to the Lord, even though he did not destroy the local shrines in Israel.	But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
18	He placed in the temple all the silver and gold objects that he and his father had dedicated to God.	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	There was peace in Judah until the thirty-fifth year of Asa's rule.	And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
