And he will go forth before Asa, and say to him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin; Jehovah is with you in your being with him; and if ye will seek him he will be found to you; and if ye will forsake him, he will forsake you.

And many days to Israel for not a God of truth, and for no priest teaching, and for no law.

And he will turn back in straits to him upon Jehovah God of Israel, and they will seek him and he will be found to them.

And in these times no peace to him going out, and to him coming in, for much consternation upon all inhabiting the lands.

And they dashed themselves, nation upon nation, and city upon city: for God disturbed them with all straits.

And ye, be ye strong, and your hands shall not be relaxed; for there is a reward to your work.

And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he strengthened himself, and he will put away the abominations from all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and from the cities which he took from mount Ephraim, and he will renew the altar of Jehovah which was before the porch of Jehovah.

And Asa will bring forth silver and gold from the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the house of the king, and he will send to the son of Hadad king of Aram, dwelling in Darmesek, saying,

A covenant between me and between thee, and between my father and between thy father: behold, I sent to thee silver and gold; go break thy covenant with Baasha king of Israel, and he will go up from me.

And the son of Hadad will hear to king Asa, and he will send chiefs of the armies which were with him against the cities of Israel; and they will strike Ijon and Dan and Abel-Maim, and all the stores of the cities of Naphtali.

And in that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and he will say to him, In thy relying upon the king of Aram, and thou didst not rely upon Jehovah thy God, for this the power of the king of Aram escaped from thy hand.

Were not the Cushites and the Lubims for an army for multitude, for chariots, and for horsemen to a great multitude? and in thy relying upon Jehovah he gave them into thy hand.

For Jehovah, his eyes run to and fro in all the earth to strengthen himself with the perfected heart of them to him. Thou wert foolish for this that from now there is wars with thee.

And they will bury him in his graves which he digged for himself in the city of David, and they will lay him down upon the bed which was filled with spices and sorts seasoned with aromatics of work. And they will burn for him a great burning, even to vehemence.

And Jehoshaphat his son will reign in his stead, and he will strengthen himself against Israel.

And he will give an army in all the fortified cities of Judah, and he will give garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim which Asa his father took.

And Jehovah will be with Jehoshaphat, for he went in the first ways of David his father, and he sought not for the Baals.

For to the God of his father he sought, and in his commands he went, and not according to the works of Israel.

And much work was to him in the cities of Judah: and the men of war strong of power in Jerusalem.

And these their reviewing for the house of their fathers: to Judah the chiefs of thousands; Pleasure the chief, and with him strong ones of power, three hundred thousand.

And upon his hand, Jehovah gave the chief, and with him two hundred and eighty thousand.

And the king of Israel will say to Jehoshaphat, Yet one man to seek Jehovah from him: and I hated him, for he prophesies not to me for good, but all his days for evil: he is Micaiah son of Imlah. And Jehoshaphat will say, The king shall not say thus.

And the king of Israel will call for one eunuch, and say, Hasten Micaiah son of Imlah.

And the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah sitting each upon his throne, being clothed in garments, and sitting in the area of the door of the gate of Shomeron: and all the prophets prophesying before them.

And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah will make for himself horns of iron; and he will say, Thus said Jehovah, With these shalt thou strike Aram even to finishing them.

And all the prophets propphesying thus, saying, Go up to Ramoth-Gilead and prosper: and Jehovah gave into the hand of the king.

And the messenger who went to call for Micaiah spake to him, saying, Behold, the words of the prophets with one mouth good to the king; and now will thy word be as one of them, and speak good.

And Micaiah will say, Jehovah lives, for what God shall say I shall speak it.

And he will say, I will go forth and be for a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all his prophets. And he will say, Thou shalt persuade, and also thou shalt prevail: go and do thus.

And now behold Jehovah gave a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of these thy prophets, and Jehovah spake evil against thee.

And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah, will draw near and strike Micaiah upon the cheek, and he will say, Which way passed the spirit of Jehovah from me to speak with thee?

And Micaiah will say, Behold thee seeing in that day which thou shalt go to a chamber in a chamber to hide thyself.

And the king of Israel will say, Take ye Micaiah and turn him back to Amon chief of the city, and to Joash son of the king;

And say, Thus said the king, Put ye this in the house of the prison, and feed him with bread of oppression and water of oppression till my turning back in peace.

And Micaiah will say, If turning back thou shalt turn back in peace, Jehovah spake not in me. And he will say, Hear, ye peoples, all of them.
