2 Chronicles 15:10-15

15:10 They assembled in Jerusalem in the third month of the fifteenth year of Asa’s reign. 15:11 At that time ¹  they sacrificed to the Lord some of the plunder they had brought back, including 700 head of cattle and 7,000 sheep. ²  15:12 They solemnly agreed ³  to seek the Lord God of their ancestors ⁴  with their whole heart and being. 15:13 Anyone who would not seek the Lord God of Israel would be executed, whether they were young or old, ⁵  male or female. 15:14 They swore their allegiance to the Lord, shouting their approval loudly and sounding trumpets and horns. ⁶  15:15 All Judah was happy about the oath, because they made the vow with their whole heart. They willingly sought the Lord and he responded to them. ⁷  He made them secure on every side. ⁸
