2 CHRONICLES 15:8 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of the Lord, that was before the porch of the Lord.”
And when Asa heard these words, the prophecy of Azariah the son of Oded, he took courage and removed the abominable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and from the cities which he had taken from the hill country of Ephraim, and restored the altar of the LORD that was in front of the vestibule of the house of the LORD — Asa's response (וַיִּשְׁמַע אָסָא הַדְּבָרִים וְהַנְּבוּאָה עוֹדֵד הַנָּבִיא וַיִּתְחַזַּק וַיַּעֲבֵר הַשִּׁקּוּצִים): he removed idols (מִכָּל־אֶרֶץ יְהוּדָה וּבִנְיָמִן וּמִן־הֶעָרִים אֲשֶׁר־לָכַד), restored the temple altar (וַיַּחֲדַשׁ אֶת־מִזְבַּח יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר לִפְנֵי אוּלָם בֵּית־יְהוָה). Prophetic word prompted renewed reform.
