15:3以色列人不信真神,没有训诲的祭司,也没有律法,已经好久了。
Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God; and without a teaching priest; and without law。
15:4但他们在急难的时候归向耶和华以色列的神,寻求他,他就被他们寻见。
But when they in their trouble did turn unto the LORD God of Israel; and sought him; he was found of them。
15:5那时,出入的人不得平安,列国的居民都遭大乱。
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。
15:6这国攻击那国,这城攻击那城,互相破坏,因为神用各样灾难扰乱他们。
And nation was destroyed of nation; and city of city: for God did vex them with all adversity。
15:7现在你们要刚强,不要手软,因你们所行的必得赏赐。
Be ye strong therefore; and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded。
15:8亚撒听见这话和俄德儿子先知亚撒利雅的预言,就壮起胆来,在犹大,便雅悯全地,并以法莲山地所夺的各城,将可憎之物尽都除掉,又在耶和华殿的廊前重新修筑耶和华的坛。
And when Asa heard these words; and the prophecy of Oded the prophet; he took courage; and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin; and out of the cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim; and renewed the altar of the LORD; that was before the porch of the LORD。
15:9又招聚犹大,便雅悯的众人,并他们中间寄居的以法莲人,玛拿西人,西缅人。有许多以色列人归降亚撒,因见耶和华他的神与他同在。
And 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。
15:10亚撒十五年三月,他们都聚集在耶路撒冷。
So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month; in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa。
15:11当日他们从所取的掳物中,将牛七百只,羊七千只献给耶和华。
And they offered unto the LORD the same time; of the spoil which they had brought; seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep。
15:12他们就立约,要尽心尽性地寻求耶和华他们列祖的神。
And they entered into a covenant to seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;
15:13凡不寻求耶和华以色列神的,无论大小,男女,必被治死。
That whosoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be put to death; whether small or great; whether man or woman。
15:14他们就大声欢呼,吹号吹角,向耶和华起誓。
And they sware unto the LORD with a loud voice; and with shouting; and with trumpets; and with cornets。
15:15犹大众人为所起的誓欢喜。因他们是尽心起誓,尽意寻求耶和华,耶和华就被他们寻见,且赐他们四境平安。
And all Judah rejoiced at the oath: for they had sworn with all their heart; and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and the LORD gave them rest round about。
15:16亚撒王贬了他祖母玛迦太后的位,因她造了可憎的偶像亚舍拉。亚撒砍下她的偶像,捣得粉碎,烧在汲沦溪边。
And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king; he removed her from being queen; because she had made an idol in a grove: and Asa cut down her idol; and stamped it; and burnt it at the brook Kidron。
15:17只是邱坛还没有从以色列中废去,然而亚撒的心一生诚实。
But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days。
15:18亚撒将他父所分别为圣,与自己所分别为圣的金银和器皿都奉到神的殿里。
And he brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicated; and that he himself had dedicated; silver; and gold; and vessels。
15:19从这时直到亚撒三十五年,都没有争战的事。
And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa。

16:1亚撒三十六年,以色列王巴沙上来攻击犹大,修筑拉玛,不许人从犹大王亚撒那里出入。
In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah; and built Ramah; to the intent that he might let none go out or e in to Asa king of Judah。
16:2于是亚撒从耶和华殿和王宫的府库里拿出金银来,送与住大马士革的亚兰王便哈达,说,
Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the king's house; and sent to Benhadad king of Syria; that dwelt at Damascus; saying;
16:3你父曾与我父立约,我与你也要立约。现在我将金银送给你,求你废掉你与以色列王巴沙所立的约,使他离开我。
There is a league between me and thee; as there was between my father and thy father: behold; I have sent thee silver and gold; go; break thy league with Baasha king of Israel; that he may depart from me。
16:4便哈达听从亚撒王的话,派军长去攻击以色列的城邑。他们就攻破以云,但,亚伯玛音,和拿弗他利一切的积货城。
And Benhadad hearkened unto king Asa; and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they smote Ijon; and Dan; and Abelmaim; and all the store cities of Naphtali。
16:5巴沙听见就停工,不修筑拉玛了。
And it came to pass; when Baasha heard it; that he left off building of Ramah; and let his work cease。
16:6于是亚撒王率领犹大众人,将巴沙修筑拉玛所用的石头,木头都运去,用以修筑迦巴和米斯巴。
Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah; and the timber thereof; wherewith Baasha was building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah。
16:7那时,先见哈拿尼来见犹大王亚撒,对他说,因你仰赖亚兰王,没有仰赖耶和华你的神,所以亚兰王的军兵脱离了你的手。
And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah; and said unto him; Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria; and not relied on the LORD thy God; therefore is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand。
16:8古实人,路比人的军队不是甚大吗。战车马兵不是极多吗。只因你仰赖耶和华,他便将他们交在你手里。
Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubims a huge host; with very many chariots and horsemen? yet; because thou didst rely on the LORD; he delivered them into thine hand。
16:9耶和华的眼目遍察全地,要显大能帮助向他心存诚实的人。你这事行得愚昧。此后,你必有争战的事。
For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth; to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him。 Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars。
16:10亚撒因此恼恨先见,将他囚在监里。那时亚撒也虐待一些人民。
Then Asa was wroth with the seer; and put him in a prison house; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing。 And Asa oppressed some of the people the same time。
16:11亚撒所行的事,自思至终都写在犹大和以色列诸王记上。
And; behold; the acts of Asa; first and last; lo; they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel。
16:12亚撒作王三十九年,他脚上有病,而且甚重。病的时候没有求耶和华,只求医生。
And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet; until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD; but to the physicians。
16:13他作王四十一年而死,与他列祖同睡,
And Asa slept with his fathers; and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign。
16:14葬在大卫城自己所凿的坟墓里,放在床上,其床堆满各样馨香的香料,就是按作香的作法调和的香料,又为他烧了许多的物件。
And they buried him in his own sepulchres; which he had made for himself in the city of David; and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and divers kinds of spices prepared by the apothecaries' art: and they made a very great burning for him。

17:1亚撒的儿子约沙法接续他作王,奋勇自强,防备以色列人,
And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead; and strengthened himself against Israel。
17:2安置军兵在犹大一切坚固城里,又安置防兵在犹大地和他父亚撒所得以法莲的城邑中。
And he placed forces in all the fenced cities of Judah; and set garrisons in the land of Judah; and in the cities of Ephraim; which Asa his father had taken。
17:3耶和华与约沙法同在。因为他行他祖大卫初行的道,不寻求巴力,
And the LORD was with Jehoshaphat; because he walked in the first ways of his father David; and sought not unto Baalim;
17:4只寻求他父亲的神,遵行他的诫命,不效法以色列人的行为。
But sought to the Lord God of his father; and walked in his mandments; and not after the doings of Israel。
17:5所以耶和华坚定他的国,犹大众人给他进贡。约沙法大有尊荣资财。
Therefore the LORD stablished the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought to Jehoshaphat presents; and he had riches and honour in abundance。
17:6他高兴遵行耶和华的道,并且从犹大除掉一切邱坛和木偶。
And his heart was lifted up in the ways of the LORD: moreover he took away the high places and groves out of Judah。
17:7他作王第三年,就差遣臣子便亥伊勒,俄巴底,撒迦利雅,拿坦业,米该亚往犹大各城去教训百姓。
Also in the third year of his reign he sent to his princes; even to Benhail; and to Obadiah; and to Zechariah; and to Nethaneel; and to Michaiah; to teach in the cities of Judah。
17:8同着他们有利未人示玛雅,尼探雅,西巴第雅,亚撒黑,示米拉末,约拿单,亚多尼雅,多比雅,驼巴多尼雅,又有祭司以利沙玛,约兰同着他们。
And with them he sent Levites; even Shemaiah; and Nethaniah; and Zebadiah; and Asahel; and Shemiramoth; and Jehonathan; and Adonijah; and Tobijah; and Tobadonijah; Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram; priests。
17:9他们带着耶和华的律法书,走遍犹大各城教训百姓。
And they taught in Judah; and
