2 Chronicles 15:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ “Be strong, therefore! And do not let your hands be weak. For your work shall have a reward.”

⁸ And when Asa heard these Words, and the Prophecy of Obed the Prophet, he was encouraged and took away the abominations out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken on Mount Ephraim. And he renewed the Altar of the LORD that was in front of the Porch of the LORD.

⁹ And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and the strangers with them out of Ephraim and Manasseh, and out of Simeon. For many fell to him out of Israel, when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.
