If my people, H5971 which H834 are called H7121 by my name, H8034 shall humble H3665 themselves, and pray, H6419 and seek H1245 my face, H6440 and turn H7725 from their wicked H7451 ways; H1870 then will I hear H8085 from heaven, H8064 and will forgive H5545 their sin, H2403 and will heal H7495 their land. H776

And when Asa H609 heard H8085 these H428 words, H1697 and the prophecy H5016 of Oded H5752 the prophet, H5030 he took courage, H2388 and put H5674 away H5674 the abominable H8251 idols H8251 out of all H3605 the land H776 of Judah H3063 and Benjamin, H1144 and out of the cities H5892 which H834 he had taken H3920 from mount H2022 Ephraim, H669 and renewed H2318 the altar H4196 of the LORD, H3068 that was before H6440 the porch H197 of the LORD. H3068

And he took away H5493 the strange H5236 gods, H430 and the idol H5566 out of the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068 and all H3605 the altars H4196 that he had built H1129 in the mount H2022 of the house H1004 of the LORD, H3068 and in Jerusalem, H3389 and cast H7993 them out of the city. H5892

At what instant H7281 I shall speak H1696 concerning H5921 a nation, H1471 and concerning H5921 a kingdom, H4467 to pluck H5428 up, and to pull H5422 down, and to destroy H6 it;

If that nation, H1471 against H5921 whom H834 I have pronounced, H1696 turn H7725 from their evil, H7451 I will repent H5162 of the evil H7451 that I thought H2803 to do H6213 to them.

Therefore H3651 I will judge H8199 you, O house H1004 of Israel, H3478 every H376 one H376 according to his ways, H1870 said H5002 the Lord H136 GOD. H3069 Repent, H7725 and turn H7725 yourselves from all H3605 your transgressions; H6588 so iniquity H5771 shall not be your ruin. H4383

For I have no H3808 pleasure H2654 in the death H4194 of him that dies, H4191 said H5002 the Lord H136 GOD: H3069 why turn H7725 yourselves, and live H2421 you.

O Israel, H3478 return H7725 to the LORD H3068 your God; H430 for you have fallen H3782 by your iniquity. H5771

Asshur H804 shall not save H3467 us; we will not ride H7392 on horses: H5483 neither H3808 will we say H559 any more H5750 to the work H4639 of our hands, H3027 You are our gods: H430 for in you the fatherless H3490 finds mercy. H7355

And it repented H5162 the LORD H3068 that he had made H6213 man H120 on H5921 the earth, H776 and it grieved H6087 him at H413 his heart. H3820

Nevertheless he regarded H7200 their affliction, H6862 when he heard H8085 their cry: H7440

And he remembered H2142 for them his covenant, H1285 and repented H5162 according to the multitude H7230 of his mercies. H2617

In all H3605 their affliction H6869 he was afflicted, H6862 and the angel H4397 of his presence H6440 saved H3467 them: in his love H160 and in his pity H2551 he redeemed H1350 them; and he bore H5190 them, and carried H5375 them all H3605 the days H3117 of old. H5769

Is Ephraim H669 my dear H3357 son? H1121 is he a pleasant H8191 child? H3206 for since H1767 I spoke H1696 against him, I do earnestly remember H2142 him still: H5750 therefore H5921 H3651 my bowels H4578 are troubled H1993 for him; I will surely have mercy H7355 on him, said H5002 the LORD. H3068

How H349 shall I give H5414 you up, Ephraim? H669 how shall I deliver H4042 you, Israel? H3478 how H349 shall I make H5414 you as Admah? H126 how shall I set H7761 you as Zeboim? H6636 my heart H3820 is turned H2015 within me, my repentings H5150 are kindled H3648 together. H3162

And he arose, G450 and came G2064 to his father. G3962 But when he was yet G2089 a great G3112 way G3112 off, G568 his father G3962 saw G1492 him, and had compassion, G4697 and ran, G5143 and fell G1968 on G1909 his neck, G5137 and kissed G2705 him.

And when G5613 he was come G1448 near, G1448 he beheld G1492 the city, G4172 and wept G2799 over G1909 it,

And said, G2036 Where G4226 have you laid G5087 him? They said G3004 to him, Lord, G2962 come G2064 and see. G1492

And be you kind G5543 one G240 to another, G240 tenderhearted, G2155 forgiving G5483 one G1438 another, G1438 even G2532 as God G2316 for Christ's G5547 sake G1722 has forgiven G5483 you.

Why G1352 I was grieved G4360 with that generation, G1074 and said, G2036 They do always G104 err G4105 in their heart; G2588 and they have not known G1097 my ways. G3598

For we have G2192 not an high G749 priest G749 which cannot G3361 G1410 be touched G4834 with the feeling G4834 of our infirmities; G769 but was in all G3956 points tempted G3985 like G2596 G3665 as we are, yet without G5565 sin. G266
