2 Chronicles 15:9-15 ▼

9 Then he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, as well as those from the tribes of Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon who were residing among them, for they had defected to him from Israel in great numbers when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.

10 They were gathered in Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of Asa’s reign.

11 At that time they sacrificed to the LORD seven hundred cattle and seven thousand sheep and goats from all the plunder they had brought.

12 Then they entered into a covenant to seek the LORD God of their ancestors with all their heart and all their soul.

13 Whoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel would be put to death, young or old, man or woman.

14 They took an oath to the LORD in a loud voice, with shouting, with trumpets, and with rams’ horns.

15 All Judah rejoiced over the oath, for they had sworn it wholeheartedly. They had sought him with all sincerity, and he was found by them. So the LORD gave them rest on every side.
