- And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded:
- 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.
- Now for a long season Israel hath been without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
- 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 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.
