The Lord Is With You, While You Are With Him

The men of judah carried away very much booty. And the ethiopians fell until none remained alive, for they were broken before the lord and army. 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. They sacrificed to the lord on that day, from the spoil which they had brought, 700 o en and seven thousand sheep. But you take courage, do not let your hands be weak. For your work shall be rewarded, as has idols removed.
