And upon Azariah son of Oded hath
been
the
Spirit
of
God,
And the
Spirit
of
God
came
upon Azariah the
son of Oded :
and he goeth
out before
Asa, and saith
to
him, `
Hear ,
me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; Jehovah
`
is '
with you --
in
your
being
with Him ,
and if ye seek Him, He is
found of you ,
and
if ye forsake Him, He forsaketh
you ;
And he went
out to
meet
Asa, and said
unto
him, Hear ye
me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; The
LORD
is with you ,
while
ye
be
with him ;
and if ye seek him, he will
be
found of you ;
but
if ye forsake him, he will
forsake
you .
and
many
days
`are'
to
Israel without a
true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law ,
Now
for
a
long
season
Israel hath
been
without the
true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law .
and
it
turneth
back
in its
distress
unto Jehovah,
God of Israel, and they
seek
Him, and
He is
found of them ,
But
when
they
in their
trouble
did
turn
unto the
LORD
God of Israel, and sought
him, he was
found of them .
and in those times there is
no peace to him who
is
going
out, and
to him who
is
coming
in, for
many
troubles
`are'
on
all the inhabitants of the lands,
And in those times there was
no peace to him that
went
out, nor
to him that
came
in, but
great
vexations
were
upon
all the inhabitants of the countries.
and they
have
been
beaten
down,
nation by
nation, and city by
city ,
for God hath
troubled
them with every
adversity ;
And nation was
destroyed
of
nation, and city of
city :
for God did
vex
them with all
adversity .
and
ye,
be ye strong, and let not your hands be feeble,
for
there
is
a
reward
for your work. '
Be ye strong therefore
, and let not your hands be weak:
for your work shall
be
rewarded
.
