2 Chronicles 15
1 And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:
Azarias autem filius Obed, facto in se spiritu Dei,
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.
egressus est in occursum Asa, et dixit ei: Audite me Asa, et omnis Iuda et Beniamin: Dominus vobiscum, quia fuistis cum eo. Si quaesieritis eum, invenietis: si autem dereliqueritis eum, derelinquet vos.
3 Now for a long season Israel [hath been] without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
Transibant autem multi dies in Israel absque Deo vero, et absque sacerdote doctore, et absque lege.
4 But when they in their trouble did turn unto the LORD God of Israel, and sought him, he was found of them.
Cumque reversi fuerint in angustia sua ad Dominum Deum Israel, et quaesierint eum, reperient eum.
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.
In tempore illo non erit pax egredienti et ingredienti, sed terrores undique in cunctis habitatoribus terrarum:
6 And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity.
pugnavit enim gens contra gentem, et civitas contra civitatem, quia Dominus conturbabit eos in omni angustia.
7 Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.
Vos ergo confortamini, et non dissolvantur manus vestrae: erit enim merces operi vestro.
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.
Quod cum audisset Asa verba scilicet, et prophetiam Azariae filii Obed prophetae, confortatus est, et abstulit idola de omni terra Iuda, et de Beniamin, et ex urbibus, quas ceperat, montis Ephraim, et dedicavit altare Domini quod erat ante porticum Domini.
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.
Congregavitque universum Iudam et Beniamin, et advenas cum eis de Ephraim, et de Manasse, et de Simeon: plures enim ad eum confugerant ex Israel, videntes quod Dominus Deus illius esset cum eo.
10 So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
Cumque venissent in Ierusalem mense tertio, anno decimoquinto regni 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.
immolaverunt Domino in die illa de manubiis, et praeda, quam adduxerant, boves septingentos, et arietes septem millia.
12 And they entered into a covenant to seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
Et intravit ex more ad corroborandum foedus ut quaererent Dominum Deum patrum suorum in toto corde, et in tota anima sua.
13 That whosoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
Si quis autem, inquit, non quaesierit Dominum Deum Israel, moriatur, a minimo usque ad maximum, a viro usque ad mulierem.
14 And they sware unto the LORD with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
Iuraveruntque Domino voce magna in iubilo, et in clangore tubae, et in sonitu buccinarum
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.
omnes qui erant in Iuda cum execratione: in omni enim corde suo iuraverunt, et in tota voluntate quaesierunt eum, et invenerunt: praestititque eis Dominus requiem per circuitum.
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.
Sed et Maacham matrem Asa regis ex augusto deposuit imperio, eo quod fecisset in luco simulacrum Priapi: quod omne contrivit, et in frustra comminuens combussit in Torrente cedron:
17 But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.
Excelsa autem derelicta sunt in Israel: attamen cor Asa erat perfectum cunctis diebus eius,
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.
Eaque quae voverat pater suus, et ipse, intulit in domum Domini, argentum, et aurum, vasorumque diversam supellectilem.
19 And there was no [more] war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
Bellum vero non fuit usque ad trigesimum quintum annum regni Asa.
