15 Then the spirit of God inspired Azarlah the son of Oded 2 to go out and meet Asa with this message: “Listen to me, Asa, and all you men of Judah and Benjamin! The Eternal was on your side, because you were on his side; if you seek him, he will be found by you; but, if you forsake him, he will forsake you. 3 For a long while Israel was without the true God, without any priest who taught religion, without God’s law; 4 but when they turned in their trouble to the Eternal the God of Israel and sought him, he was found by them. 5 During those years there was no peace for anyone; sore woes disturbed everyone in every district; 6 clan dashed against clan, and town against town, for God punished them with all kinds of disorder. 7 But be you strong, relax not your efforts, for your work will be rewarded.”
8 When Asa heard this, he was brave enough to remove the detestable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from all the towns he had captured in the highlands of Ephraim. He also repaired the altar of the Eternal in front of the porch of the Eternal. 9 Then he summoned all Judah and Benjamin and the settlers from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon, who had come over to him in large numbers from Israel when they saw that the Eternal his God was with him. 10 Gathering at Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of Asa’s reign, 11 they sacrificed that day to the Eternal, from the booty they had captured, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep. 12 They renewed their compact to worship the Eternal the God of their fathers with all their heart and soul, 13 resolving that anyone, young or old, man or woman, who would not worship the Eternal, the God of Israel, should be put to death. 14 They pledged their oath to the Eternal aloud, with shouts and with blasts on the trumpets and the bugles. 15 And all Judah rejoiced over the oath, for they had sworn it with all their heart and sought him with all their desire; the Eternal was found by them, and he gave them peace on every side.
16 King Asa also deposed his mother Maakah from the position of queen-mother, because she had made an obscene object for Astarte; Asa demolished this object of an image, reduced it to dust, and burned it in the Kidron ravine. 17 The shrines were not removed from Israel; still, Asa’s mind was undivided all his life.
19 Down to the thirty-fifth year of Asa’s reign, there was no further war.
