2 Chronicles 15:2-9

2And he went outH3318 to meetH6440 AsaH609, and saidH559 unto him, HearH8085 ye me, AsaH609, and all JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144; YhwhH3068 is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seekH1875 him, he will be foundH4672 of you; but if ye forsakeH5800 him, he will forsakeH5800 you.1

3Now for a longH7227 seasonH3117 IsraelH3478 hath been withoutH3808 the trueH571 GodH430, and without a teachingH3384 priestH3548, and without lawH8451.

4But when they in their troubleH6862 did turnH7725 unto YhwhH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and soughtH1245 him, he was foundH4672 of them.

5And in those timesH6256 there was no peaceH7965 to him that went outH3318, nor to him that came inH935, but greatH7227 vexationsH4103 were upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of the countriesH776.

6And nationH1471 was destroyedH3807 of nationH1471, and cityH5892 of cityH5892: for GodH430 did vexH2000 them with all adversityH6869.2

7Be ye strongH2388 therefore, and let not your handsH3027 be weakH7503: for your workH6468 shall beH3426 rewardedH7939.

8And when AsaH609 heardH8085 these wordsH1697, and the prophecyH5016 of OdedH5752 the prophetH5030, he took courageH2388, and put awayH5674 the abominable idolsH8251 out of all the landH776 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, and out of the citiesH5892 which he had takenH3920 from mountH2022 EphraimH669, and renewedH2318 the altarH4196 of YhwhH3068, that was beforeH6440 the porchH197 of YhwhH3068.3

9And he gatheredH6908 all JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, and the strangersH1481 with them out of EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519, and out of SimeonH8095: for they fellH5307 to him out of IsraelH3478 in abundanceH7230, when they sawH7200 that YhwhH3068 his GodH430 was with him.
