2 Chronicles 15

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 The Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded,	1 وكان روح الله على عزريا بن عوديد
2 and he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, "Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin: The LORD is with you, while you are with him. If you seek him, he will be found by you, but if you forsake him, he will forsake you.	2 فخرج للقاء آسا وقال له. اسمعوا لي يا آسا وجميع يهوذا وبنيامين. الرب معكم ما كنتم معه وان طلبتموه يوجد لكم وان تركتموه يترككم.
3 For a long time Israel was without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law;	3 ولاسرائيل ايام كثيرة بلا اله حق وبلا كاهن معلّم وبلا شريعة.
4 but when in their distress they turned to the LORD, the God of Israel, and sought him, he was found by them.	4 ولكن لما رجعوا عندما تضايقوا الى الرب اله اسرائيل وطلبوه وجد لهم.
5 In those times there was no peace to him who went out or to him who came in, for great disturbances afflicted all the inhabitants of the lands.	5 وفي تلك الازمان لم يكن امان للخارج ولا للداخل لان اضطرابات كثيرة كانت على كل سكان الاراضي.
6 They were broken in pieces, nation against nation and city against city, for God troubled them with every sort of distress.	6 فأفنيت امة بامة ومدينة بمدينة لان الله ازعجهم بكل ضيق.
7 But you, take courage! Do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded."	7 فتشدّدوا انتم ولا ترتخ ايديكم لان لعملكم اجرا
8 When Asa heard these words, the prophecy of Azariah the son of Oded, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities which he had taken in the hill country of Ephraim, and he repaired the altar of the LORD that was in front of the vestibule of the house of the LORD.	8 فلما سمع آسا هذا الكلام ونبوة عوديد النبي تشدد ونزع الرجاسات من كل ارض يهوذا وبنيامين ومن المدن التي اخذها من جبل افرايم وجدد مذبح الرب الذي امام رواق الرب.
9 And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon who were sojourning with them, for great numbers had deserted to him from Israel when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.	9 وجمع كل يهوذا وبنيامين والغرباء معهم من افرايم ومنسّى ومن شمعون لانهم سقطوا اليه من اسرائيل بكثرة حين رأوا ان الرب الهه معه
10 They were gathered at Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.	10 فاجتمعوا في اورشليم في الشهر الثالث في السنة الخامسة عشرة لملك آسا.
11 They sacrificed to the LORD on that day, from the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.	11 وذبحوا للرب في ذلك اليوم من الغنيمة التي جلبوا سبع مئة من البقر وسبعة آلاف من الضأن.
12 And they entered into a covenant to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul;	12 ودخلوا في عهد ان يطلبوا الرب اله آبائهم بكل قلوبهم وكل انفسهم.
13 and that whoever would not seek the LORD, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether young or old, man or woman.	13 حتى ان كل من لا يطلب الرب اله اسرائيل يقتل من الصغير الى الكبير من الرجال والنساء.
14 They took oath to the LORD with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with horns.	14 وحلفوا للرب بصوت عظيم وهتاف وبابواق وقرون.
15 And all Judah rejoiced over the oath; for they had sworn with all their heart, and had sought him with their whole desire, and he was found by them, and the LORD gave them rest round about.	15 وفرح كل يهوذا من اجل الحلف لانهم حلفوا بكل قلوبهم وطلبوه بكل رضاهم فوجد لهم واراحهم الرب من كل جهة.
16 Even Maacah, his mother, King Asa removed from being queen mother because she had made an abominable image for Asherah. Asa cut down her image, crushed it, and burned it at the brook Kidron.	16 حتى ان معكة ام آسا الملك خلعها من ان تكون ملكة لانها عملت لسارية تمثالا وقطع آسا تمثالها ودقه واحرقه في وادي قدرون.
17 But the high places were not taken out of Israel. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was blameless all his days.	17 واما المرتفعات فلم تنزع من اسرائيل. الا ان قلب آسا كان كاملا كل ايامه.
18 And he brought into the house of God the votive gifts of his father and his own votive gifts, silver, and gold, and vessels.	18 وادخل اقداس ابيه واقداسه الى بيت الله من الفضة والذهب والآنية.
19 And there was no more war until the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa.	19 ولم تكن حرب الى السنة الخامسة والثلاثين لملك آسا
