1 Božji Duh je prišel nad Odédovega sina Azarjá.
Then the Spirite of God came vpon Azariah the sonne of Obed.
2 Ta je odšel ven, da sreča Asája in mu rekel: »Prisluhni mi, Asá, ves Juda in Benjamin. Gospod je z vami, dokler ste vi z njim in če ga iščete, se vam bo dal najti, toda če ga zapustite, bo on zapustil vas.
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 Torej dolgo časa je bil Izrael brez resničnega Boga, brez duhovnika, ki bi učil in brez postave.
Nowe for a long season Israel hath bene without the true God, and without Priest to teach and without Lawe.
4 Toda ko so se v svoji stiski obrnili h Gospodu, Izraelovemu Bogu in ga iskali, se jim je dal najti.
But whosoeuer returned in his affliction to the Lord God of Israel, and sought him, he was founde of them.
5 V tistih časih ni bilo miru tistemu, ki je odšel ven niti tistemu, ki je vstopil, temveč so bile velike nevšečnosti nad vsemi prebivalci dežel.
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 Narod je bil uničen od naroda in mesto od mesta, kajti Bog jih je jezil z vsemi nadlogami.
For nation was destroyed of nation, and citie of citie: for God troubled them with all aduersitie.
7 Bodite torej močni in vaše roke naj ne bodo šibke, kajti vaše delo bo nagrajeno.«
Be ye strong therefore, and let not your handes be weake: for your worke shall haue a rewarde.
8 Ko je Asá slišal te besede in prerokbo preroka Odéda, se je opogumil in odstranil gnusne malike iz vse Judove in Benjaminove dežele in iz mest, ki jih je vzel z gore Efrájim in obnovil Gospodov oltar, ki je bil pred Gospodovim preddverjem.
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 Zbral je ves Juda in Benjamin in z njimi tujce iz Efrájima, Manáseja in Simeona, kajti iz Izraela so se v obilju zatekali k njemu, ko so videli, da je bil Gospod, njegov Bog, z 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 Tako so se zbrali skupaj pri Jeruzalemu, v tretjem mesecu, v petnajstem letu Asájevega kraljevanja.
So they assembled to Ierusalem in the third moneth, in the fifteenth yere of the reigne of Asa.
11 Isti čas so darovali Gospodu od plena, ki so ga privedli, sedemsto volov in sedemsto ovc.
And they offred vnto the Lord the same time of the spoyle, which they had brought, euen seuen hundreth bullockes, and seuen thousande sheepe.
12 Vstopili so v zavezo, da iščejo Gospoda, Boga svojih očetov, z vsem svojim srcem in z vso svojo dušo,
And they made a couenant to seeke the Lord God of their fathers, with all their heart, and with all their soule.
13 da kdorkoli ne bi iskal Gospoda, Izraelovega Boga, bi bil usmrčen, bodisi majhen ali velik, moški ali ženska.
And whosoeuer will not seeke the Lord God of Israel, shalbe slaine, whether he were small or great, man or woman.
14 In prisegli so Gospodu z močnim glasom, vriskanjem, s trobentami in kornéti.
And they sware vnto the Lord with a loude voyce, and with shouting and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15 Ves Juda se je veselil ob prisegi, kajti prisegli so z vsem svojim srcem in ga iskali z vso svojo željo in on se jim je dal najti. In Gospod jim je dal počitek naokoli.
And all Iudah reioyced at the othe: for they had sworne vnto the Lord with all their heart, and sought him with a whole desire, and he was founde of them. And the Lord gaue them rest rounde about.
16 Tudi glede Maáhe, matere kralja Asája, jo je ta odstranil, da bi bila kraljica, ker si je naredila malika v ašeri. Asá je posekal njenega malika, ga poteptal in ga zažgal pri potoku Kidron.
And King Asa deposed Maachah his mother from her regencie, because she had made an idole in a groue: and Asa brake downe her idole, and stamped it, and burnt it at the brooke Kidron.
17 Toda visoki kraji niso bili odvzeti iz Izraela. Kljub temu je bilo Asájevo srce vse njegove dni popolno.
But the hie places were not taken away out of Israel: yet the heart of Asa was perfit all his dayes.
18 V Božjo hišo je prinesel stvari, ki jih je njegov oče posvetil in te, ki jih je sam posvetil: srebro, zlato in posode.
Also he brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicate, and that he had dedicate, siluer, and golde, and vessels.
19 In nobene vojne ni bilo več do petintridesetega leta Asájevega kraljevanja.
And there was no warre vnto the fiue and thirtieth yeere of the reigne of Asa.
