2 Chronicles 15:7-13
New American Standard Bible
8Now when Asa heard these words and the prophecy which Azariah the son of Oded the prophet spoke, he took courage and removed the abominable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and from the cities which he had captured in the hill country of Ephraim. He then restored the altar of the Lord which was in front of the porch of the Lord.
9And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon who resided with them, for many defected to him from Israel when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.
10So they assembled at Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of Asa’s reign.
11They sacrificed to the Lord on that day seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep from the spoils they had brought.
12They entered into the covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and soul;
13and whoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel was to be put to death, whether small or great, man or woman.
King James Version
Chapter 15
7Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded.
9And 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.
10So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
11And they offered unto the Lord the same time, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
12And they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
13That whosoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
