1 Tada duh Božji doðe na Azariju sina Odidova;

Then the Spirite of God came vpon Azariah the sonne of Obed.

2 Te otide pred Asu i reèe mu: èujte me, Aso i sve pleme Judino i Venijaminovo; Gospod je s vama, jer ste vi s njim; i ako ga ustražite, naæi æete ga; ako li ga ostavite, i on æe vas ostaviti.

And he went out to meete Asa, and said vnto him, O Asa, and all Iudah, and Beniamin, heare ye me. The Lord is with you, while ye be with him: and if ye seeke him, he wil be founde of you, but if ye forsake him, he will forsake you.

3 Dugo je Izrailj bez pravoga Boga i bez sveštenika uèitelja, i bez zakona.

4 A da su se u nevolji svojoj obratili ka Gospodu Bogu Izrailjevu i tražili ga, našli bi ga.

5 Ali u ovo vrijeme ne može se na miru odlaziti ni dolaziti; jer je nemir velik meðu svijem stanovnicima zemaljskim;

And in that time there was no peace to him, that did goe out and goe in: but great troubles were to all the inhabitants of the earth.

6 I potiru narodi jedan drugi, i gradovi jedan drugi, jer ih Bog smete svakojakim nevoljama.

For nation was destroyed of nation, and citie of citie: for God troubled them with all aduersitie.

7 Zato vi budite hrabri i nemojte da vam klonu ruke, jer ima plata za vaš trud.

Be ye strong therefore, and let not your handes be weake: for your worke shall haue a rewarde.

8 A kad èu Asa te rijeèi i proroštvo proroka Odida, ohrabri se, i istrijebi gadne bogove iz sve zemlje Judine i Venijaminove i iz gradova koje bješe uzeo u gori Jefremovoj, i ponovi oltar Gospodnji koji bijaše pred trijemom Gospodnjim.

And when Asa heard these wordes, and the prophesie of Obed the Prophet, he was encouraged, and tooke away the abominations out of all the lande of Iudah, and Beniamin, and out of the cities which he had taken of mount Ephraim, and he renued the altar of the Lord, that was before the porche of the Lord.

9 Potom sazva sve pleme Judino i Venijaminovo i došljake koji bijahu kod njih od Jefrema i Manasije i Simeuna, jer ih mnogo prebježe k njemu iz naroda Izrailjeva kad vidješe da je Gospod Bog njegov s njim.

And he gathered all Iudah and Beniamin, and the strangers with them out of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and out of Simeon: for there fell many to him out of Israel, when they sawe that the Lord his God was with him.

10 I skupiše se u Jerusalim treæega mjeseca petnaeste godine carovanja Asina.

And they made a couenant to seeke the Lord God of their fathers, with all their heart, and with all their soule.

13 A ko god ne bi tražio Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva, da se pogubi, bio mali ili veliki, èovjek ili žena.

And whosoeuer will not seeke the Lord God of Israel, shalbe slaine, whether he were small or great, man or woman.

14 I zakleše se Gospodu glasom velikim i uz klikovanje i uz trube i rogove.

And they sware vnto the Lord with a loude voyce, and with shouting and with trumpets, and with cornets.

15 I radovaše se sav narod Judin radi te zakletve, jer iz svega srca svojega zakleše se, i od sve volje svoje tražiše ga i naðoše ga; i Gospod im dade mir otsvuda.
