2 Chronicles 15
1 The Spirit of God came on Azariah the son of Oded:
Azarias autem filius Oded facto in se spiritu Dei
2 and he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, "Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin. The LORD is with you, while you are with him; and if you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you 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 derelinquet vos
3 Now for a long time Israel was without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
transibunt autem multi dies in Israhel absque Deo vero et absque sacerdote doctore et absque lege
4 But when in their distress they turned to the LORD, the God of Israel, and sought him, he was found by them.
cumque reversi fuerint in angustia sua ad Dominum Deum Israhel et quaesierint eum repperient
5 In those times there was no peace to him who went out, nor to him who came in; but great troubles were on all the inhabitants of the lands.
in tempore illo non erit pax egredienti et ingredienti sed terrores undique in cunctis habitatoribus terrarum
6 They were broken in pieces, nation against nation, and city against city; for God troubled them with all adversity.
pugnabit enim gens contra gentem et civitas contra civitatem quia Dominus conturbabit eos in omni angustia
7 But you be strong, and do not let your hands be slack; for your work shall be rewarded."
vos ergo confortamini et non dissolvantur manus vestrae erit enim merces operi vestro
8 When Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Azariah the son of Oded the prophet, he took courage and put away the abominations out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin and out of the cities which he had taken from the hill country of Ephraim; and he renewed the altar of the LORD, that was before the vestibule of the LORD.
quod cum audisset Asa verba scilicet et prophetiam Oded prophetae confortatus est et abstulit idola de omni terra Iuda et Beniamin et ex urbibus quas ceperat montis Ephraim et dedicavit altare Domini quod erat ante porticum Domini
9 He gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those who lived 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 Iuda et Beniamin et advenas cum eis de Ephraim et de Manasse et de Symeon plures enim ad eum confugerant ex Israhel 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 Hierusalem mense tertio anno quintodecimo regni Asa
11 They sacrificed to the LORD in that day, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred head of cattle and seven thousand sheep.
immolaverunt Domino in die illa de manubiis et praeda quam adduxerant boves septingentos et arietes septem milia
12 They entered into the covenant to seek the LORD, the 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 and that whoever would not seek the LORD, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
si quis autem inquit non quaesierit Dominum Deum Israhel moriatur a minimo usque ad maximum a viro usque ad mulierem
14 They swore to 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 bucinarum
15 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 all around.
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 Also Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, he removed from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; and Asa cut down her image, and made dust of it, and burnt it in the Kidron Valley.
sed et Maacham matrem Asa regis ex augusto deposuit imperio eo quod fecisset in luco simulacrum Priapi quod omne contrivit et in frusta comminuens conbusit 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 Israhel attamen cor Asa erat perfectum cunctis diebus eius
18 He brought into God's house the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.
ea quae voverat pater suus et ipse intulit in domum Domini argentum et aurum vasorumque diversam supellectilem
19 There was no more war to the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
bellum vero non fuit usque ad tricesimum quintum annum regni Asa
